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.

Girl half is def. accurate.
It’s not something I’ve ever done, but I’ve had a ton of friends do to me. And I absolutely do feel them or whatever they want.
My bff even showed me her nipple piercings after she got them, so I could compliment her on them :p
Boy half is somewhat accurate, but usually it'll be some other friend in the conversation who'll jump in with some stupid remark like "what you guys homo now", and the rest will join in and laugh.
Having learned their lesson, they'll know not to compliment another boy again, and to mock others if they do it.
It spreads like a cancer, really.
That’s a very depressing way to live imo. I’m sorry that’s a thing.
It's not universal. There are guys that are emotionally mature. But yeah this is a really dumb and common cultural thing.
