    Huh, for some reason I just noticed how it’s ok to sexualize a woman if you depict the one doing the sexualizing as also a woman. Like, if this comic depicted a male in the drivers seat rather than a woman it’d be a serious problem because men finding women attractive is not good but women finding women attractive is good and funny.

    Maybe… I know this idea is kinda radical but stay with me… maybe it’s ok for everyone to be attracted to someone and to a degree sexualization of the gender one is sexually attracted to is absolutely a normal human experience no matter what you identify or were born as? Huh…

      Idk who the creator is or how this is generally perceived by women, but it is interesting to see women displaying misogynistic behavior after revolution against men for the same. It’s like a fucked up sign of progress.

        Idk if it’s misogyny exactly, I’m not sure what to call it but I don’t think it’s misogyny. Just because she likes to see the giggle doesn’t mean she thinks any less of the other women, she could even hold her in very high regard. Objectification, sure, but not misogyny me thinks.

          I’m not familiar with the source material, so I could be off base, but I didn’t read this as misogynistic or objectifying. It seems to me that the driver didn’t want to drive 4 hours each way to pick up the passenger, even if they’re friends, so she’s punishing the passenger with the bumpy road. Especially with a chest that big, all the jiggling is likely to hurt, or at best be very uncomfortable. I didn’t read this as the driver having prurient motives, but to be fair, I’m not attracted to breasts. ::shrug::

            Wait…you’re not attracted to breasts? I think you may be the only one. Even gay men, and straight women love breasts.

            My brain does not comprehend your existence.

          Misogyny aside, there’s nothing in this sentence that is gender-specific other than the pronouns. We should recognize it and call it out regardless.

      It’s a 4 hour drive man, obviously they’d pick up and install a 4K dashcam on the way.

          The best dash cam setups are three cameras: one front, one rear, one inside. That way, you get maximum information.

            Ehh I’m on the fence about this. It’s possible to be doing something you maybe technically shouldn’t be, like having one hand on the wheel for a moment, and also get in an accident that is 0% your fault. But if the other side gets that footage, you could be found partially at fault, and some states have the law set up that if you’re found even 1% at fault you’ll get nothing.

            Yes you should be following all laws at all times. Yes this may be leaning towards unethical. But we’re human. It’s not easy to be literally camera perfect 24/7. If you’re doing something super obviously wrong driving wise the normal cameras would be enough to see that.

            Just something to think about.
