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.

[two characters are talking in a bar, the light blue one of the left looks smug, while the dark blue one on the right looks concerned]

[light blue] Women are so shallow, they only want a tall good looking guy with tons of money

[dark blue] What about Brenda? She seems to really care and is always there for you

[light blue] Brenda? She's fat poor and ugly!

Guys and gals should be free to apply ALL of those criteria, both ways. You really okay with dudes who do?

Yeah as long as they can take it, they can dish it.

My thoughts - I am not about to police anyone's desires, that's not my job. Be as picky as you want, it's a big world full of people, you will probably find someone. Just don't get mad if the woman you want finds you don't meet her standards. I've had guys turn me down for being tall, don't care, better to know that even if I think it's stupid, right?

I think my daughters were pickier than the boys, honestly. Not about $$ at all but more picky in general. The boys did more like I did, and their dad, just sort of get around and see what sticks, you might be surprised who you find hottest and most attractive.

I would be annoyed if a guy didn't like that I work and take care of my looks and health, too. My husband is funny, he says I have raised his standards. Me, I got what I wanted, sex every day and a guy who works and makes money, works out, he's not shredded at all but fit and padded, yes? He got what he wanted, I work and make money, shit at housekeeping but really good cook, I stay in shape and work out too. So some of what reads as picky can be more lifestyle matching. I would not be with a sedentary guy, certainly not at this point. I am older and not signing up for a 100% chance of taking physical care of some physically idle old man when he inevitably gets sick.
