- 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.

A brilliant observation, I see 2 solutions. The one I had in mind was to be gay
Por que no los dos?
Then you'd be back to having to date an icky girl, you fool!
I thought you were suggesting either murder, or suicide. I couldn't figure out which.

Cant beat em. Join em!
Yeah just dip your toes in the gay dating pool. You'll soon wish you were attracted to women
Dating apps are a literal scam preying on loneliness and/or horniness.
Doesn't help that they're almost all owned by the same company...
we need fediverse dating apps
They should just kiss
dating sucks cause people suck. collectively we hold ourselves to remarkably low standards.
Damn
If you're in a big city, try 222. Shit is actually awesome. No matching,.no swiping. You just go to dinner with 5-7 random people, roughly even between men and women
In my experience, most of the "women" on dating apps turn out to be scammers. So many conversations that end up being a waste of time when they suddenly start asking for money/credit card numbers/giftcards.
It's not just women, but the amount of men's profiles that end up being scams is way lower. And really just on the big, traditional dating services like Tinder or Match.
The most successful tool of this nature I've ever used is Grindr. The service works, and if you just want a hookup it's easy and relatively quick to find someone. Too bad the app itself is just absolute garbage with the UX/UI. And since it's meant for gay men, there's not many women on there (but they are still there). π

What's with all the mgtow redpill crap being posted recently
I'm pretty sure the last phrase is to mock the "bros", not to be taken first degree.
OP's account was created 4 days ago and has only posted comics that clearly have controversies baked in tk make people mad and generate a lot of comments.
I've noticed a huge influx of accounts exactly like this in the past couple weeks. I don't know who it is or why but it's weird.
Please explain what's mgtow/redpill about this comic? Tf?
Also please explain what mgtow is. And the pill thing, I always mix those up - is the red pill being incel or being a normie and not seeing how the world really is?
I think Men Going Their Own Way was initially ostensibly for men learning and supporting each other to be chill with being single for life. Nice stuff like appreciating walks in the forest, woodworking, etc. It got overrun with misogynists and became as spiteful as incels.
Before I almost gave up on dating I was looking for decent male communities and MGTOW superficially appeared to be what I wanted. I scratched the surface and ran away.

Someone should tell these men that you're allowed to do this stuff when you have a partner, hell the partner can even join in
I donβt think that would help. These men arenβt rejecting a partner, theyβre rejecting dating. Getting past the dating stage to the partnership stage is something they never succeeded at, so theyβre giving up on it.
I think people do try to get through to them, but the idea of being happily single got overrun with diskheads.
