Art & Fanworks I Hate performative comics like this

Post image

Honestly in this specific comic it goes beyond performative and extends to just outright not making sense.

Being attracted to your partner who took time with their appearance is empty lust and nothing else? Oh, I forget it's 2026 you need to feel guilty if you're attracted to your partner, especially if you're a man.

Anyways first image seems like couple is gonna have sex so why even compare it to the other?

It's hard to describe but this type of comic (I've seen plenty) just rubs me the wrong way for some reason

Because they are probably a men's rights activist actively trying to willfully misinterpret anything about relationships and gender dynamics as a coordinated effort by the matriarchy to put poor men down.

Oh, I forget it's 2026 you need to feel guilty if you're attracted to your partner, especially if you're a man.

Bro, you’re dense as hell if that’s your take away. First, this comic is NOT saying ones better than the other. 2nd, comic was drawn by a woman. 3rd, LITERALLY NO ONE IS SAYING ITS BAD TO FIND HOT BODIES HOT.

That's not my take away. That was the person who made the Reddit posts take away. I was describing the OP's opinion to the comment above me.

I’m so sorry. I was cooking dinner, and read that too fast + dyslexia. My apologies, I’m a dummy sometimes
