When the cartoonist tries to pass the Bechdel test without ever speaking to a woman in his life
The test asks whether a work features at least two female characters who have a conversation about something other than a man. Some versions of the test also require that those two female characters have names.
Two female characters. Not talking about men. Both have names.
Yes! Correct! This does in fact pass the Bechdel test, while still being deeply misogynistic. Thank you for explaining my joke.
Why is it deeply misogynistic?
Let me answer your question with a question: what do you think is the intended joke/humor of this comic?
It’s a stereotype about women complimenting eachother while not actually meaning it. It’s a joke. Look at the upvote / downvote ratio. Most people get it. You’re in the minority here being offended by it. Recreational outrage so to speak.
Hey buddy, I think you’re projecting quite a bit here. I made a Bechdel test joke, and you got “recreationally offended” over it. Have a sense of humor man! It’s just a joke!
You still haven’t explained what’s deeply misogynistic about this cartoon. Or was that a joke too?
Erase the last thought bubble and replace it with “It was nice to run into her, she’s so sweet,” and you’ll have something a bit more realistic and less incel-y lmao.
Women do actually like each other 🙄
True
But that would make for a horrible story though.
Women! Amirite, guys?

Right, anyway… I do like the fellow women I stumble upon on this site. I wish you gals all a lovely upcoming week!
You too, always good to start it off right with some good ol Lemmy hot takes on women.
HAHHA WOMEN BE SHOPPING AMIRITE
Neurotypical shit
