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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

You risk life and limb crossing the street. It is reasonable to take some precautions like looking both ways or waiting on a walk signal. It is not reasonable to assume every driver will swerve into you when they see an opportunity.
Take care to prepare for the worst for your own safety, but don't assume the worst in others.
I had a friend that used to bring all her first dates to the bar I tended. Just in case.
~~Dating platforms are~~ LIFE is crawling with predators
he FTFY
Edit: Just to add "predator" is not only the psycho that will kill/rape a woman. Any men that do not accept a NO, that thinks they are "playing hard to get", that catcalls a woman in the streets, ta makes an unsolicited comment about their body, that thinks woman are ment to do whatever they want... any of those men are predators.
Any men is a comment away from being a predator. Don't be this man
What if someone were to say, start intentionally spreading rumors about men by claiming they had seen several women raped in their lives? For the sake of population control. That sounds like it would be very effective if I could find a large enough audience.
"Be patient out there gentlemen"
Naahhh...just give up on finding anyone
Suicide and loneliness seems like the only answer.
With that attitude.
That's one thing not worth dying for. Modern humans are meant to be self-sufficient individuals that depend on nothing but the very basics to survive.

Don't do it...
Yes
Of course it doesn't feel great to think that people are uncomfortable and threatened just being aware that you are a single man who exists in the same environment, but if that's how it's gotta be, how do you successfully communicate that you are not a threat?
I don't.
I'm not interested in socializing with discriminating cretins who deal in absolutes and i like my peace of mind.
That's what a predator would say.
No, seriously, trust is built over time.
Well yeah, obviously, but why would someone give you the opportunity if being around you makes them uncomfortable and threatened? It works the other way around too; I wouldn't want to spend time with someone if it seems like doing so might be making them feel afraid, in that case I'm just going to stay away from them.
You people know this is a good thing, right? It's our population problem regulating itself.
Not going fast enough though so war is still necessary.
That's psychotic. War is never necessary.
It is regarding population control. We got rid of our natural enemies so now we need to be our own enemy. Even with all those wars it's not enough. A deadly world war or pandemic (or both combined) would be need.
Or we keep going and ultimately cause the runaway greenhouse effect, killing all life on this planet.
Pressure quite often. Social pressure, psychological pressure. It can be a form of de-escelation out of fear what would happen if you rejected the person. Not entirely the same situation, but that's the reason I can't say no that easily to my alcoholic brother's shenanigans. Imagine what women go through on a daily basis
Makes sense, but there has to be a better way as that sounds awful, like it does not sound like your alcoholic brother is genuinely building trust with you that way.
No he doesn't. But it's the easiest way for me to cope and deal with the situation. I don't have the patience or the mental fortitude to try and convince or convert my family to abstain from alcohol. I'd rather avoid the situation and look out for my own well-being than be exposed to their drinking. I know it's not the healthiest strategy, but it's what's been helping me the past few years
So just need to bio-enhance women to be super strong in order to get dates, got it.
All roads lead to dommy mommy
The weird thing I really don't have a big issue with that. It's just that the rhetoric just crushes me because it never ends and it fucks my head up and I start to doubt myself.
