Zenzirouj posted:I dunno, I think those clothes off moments were more about comedy than sexuality. And even if he was going for innuendo it's kind of a big leap to go from there to lesbian interspecies sex. Either way I got the feeling that he set those situations up just so that he could go "haha psych she's not at all interested in other girls." - Webcomic on internet about some dude comes to a point where it is explicitly stated that the dude's male friend is gay. Audience response: "Oh, uh, well, good luck with that." - Webcomic on internet about some lady comes to a point where it is explicitly stated that the lady's female friend is gay. Audience response: "gently caress HER IN THE EAR AND DRAW GRAPHIC PICTURES" I don't think the issue is with the author. I think the issue is with the readership. Re the virgin thing, I think he's implying that alcohol turned her life down a pretty lovely path and she would probably be looking for a soulmate instead of a one night stand at this point. I don't think it's implying that she's either chaste or she's a slut. Volmarias fucked around with this message at 04:54 on Aug 1, 2011 |

Haledjian posted:Oh yeah I'm not saying some of those guys aren't awful. I do think the author is leading them on a little more than he admits though. eg "Can I stay at your house?" "Well okay but we will have to sleep together because there is one bed and for some reason you can't sleep on the floor. Also I normally sleep in my underwear, which I will do again now even though you are sleeping in the bed next to me and for some reason I can't make an exception." "Ok!" "PS I'm gay" Floor is cold, whatsherface doesn't want to kick out katja but knows that staying in the same bed will be awkward, tries to get her to just GO without being a jerk. Kind of like if a hot mess of a hot girl wants to spend the night with you, and you have one bed. And no floor. And god you hope you don't get a boner because that would just lead her on and you really don't want that. Honestly, none of these motives don't make sense, although some are a bit contrived for humorous purposes. OTOH we're seriously analyzing the motives of a loving webcomic pandering to the worst of internet nerds.

Zenzirouj posted:Speaking of class mobility, Elder Scrolls games are pretty the ultimate Libertarian wetdream. You start off penniless and are possibly an ex-con but you become a lightning-spitting kill machine able to buy and sell entire communities just by working your way up and bootstraps. Good thing the Imperial government doesn't stifle the economy by overregulating the guilds. Amusingly, the ability to save/restore means that you'd probably take more risks than you would otherwise, because there's no real downside past going back to your last save, thus skewing the risk/reward matrix. It's a libertarian wet dream because if someone sells you a poisoned potion you can just go back 5 minutes, making silly things like the FDA unnecessary. OBAMMMAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!

So, maybe I'm mis-remembering, but has there actually been a character that Katia has met where both Katia and that character wanted some sort of relationship? Because I'm pretty sure that there isn't, but you're all making arguments that sex is presented negatively because Katia feels negatively about loving everything that moves when she's sober (blackout drunk is a different story). It seems an awful lot like you're setting the character up to fail. Glare at the suggestion that Katia gently caress <character she just met> or stick a Pinapple up her vagina? CLEARLY A PRUDE.

Haledjian posted:I feel like you haven't really reading the posts. Nobody has called Katia a "prude." This has nothing to do with prudishness. Nobody is demanding that the character have sex (I mean honestly I wish that stuff wasn't featured so prominently because it makes me feel weird about recommending it to friends). They are saying that the comic's treatment of her when she DOES is problematic. The main character almost completely lacks self confidence and considers herself a punching bag, and part of the plot progressing is her making herself overcome that. I mean, yes, I understand where you're coming from, but it seems (at least to me) that the main character is basically doing this to herself because she has issues with her own sexuality, which aren't helped by the fact that every time she drinks she ends up blacking out and doing things that she regrets. If you yoyo-d a pinapple with a part of your body when you got blackout drunk and you just happened to be an alcoholic who gets blackout drunk with just a sip, you might get a complex too. And then the people who are supposed to be advising and helping her tell her to blow some dude? Volmarias fucked around with this message at 05:41 on Dec 24, 2011 |

Have two characters perform a fist-bump while having a grand time, and call it "gay fisting." Then, when people search for "gay fisting" they will get that scene.

Kurui Reiten posted:I know this is all going to end up loving Katia over in the end; it's sort of the entire idea of the comic. Despite that, though, it would be nice for her to get a friend beyond Quillweave. ASOTIL doesn't quite count, since it's pretty obvious he's, at the very least, insane enough to chase her if he decides she violated the law. Gro-Upp is pretty much being set up to foil Katia endlessly, so that's always looming. This Sigrid thing doesn't sound like it's going to end nicely. ASOTIL is a rules lawyer. If Katya is on the wrong side of the law, I think he'll figure out a PERFECTLY LEGAL way to mitigate her troubles, if he wants to help her out. I'm fully expecting Katya to be stuck in the well but otherwise unharmed, and strike a deal with our perfectly normal friend wherein she gets out of the well in exchange for some hot jelly lickin action.
