Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I was like "surely it's not that bad", figuring on a couple/three nOt AlL mEN commenters.

Alas no, a whole thread of "everyone fetishizes someone" bs.

No, you slap dicks, it's possible to "have a type" without objectifying people. Do you even know what objectifying is? Can you understand the difference between attraction and viewing another human as an object that only exists for your gratification?

I think part of it is just life inexperience, combined with parents being afraid of having honest conversations with their kids about sexuality, attraction, and respect. I know I had a LOT of growing to do as a young man. I greatly appreciate the friends I had that called me out on my bullshit. I'm also glad my shyness kept me from outright chode behavior as a youth. I could've been very harmful in different circumstances. Not intentionally, but harmful nonetheless

I am heartened that so many in this thread are calling out the foolishness. I just hope the boys listen
