- 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).

My interpretation is he saw a guy because he had the visor on, but when it came off it's revealed it was a hot woman all along, and the visor was "protecting" him from that view. As in, he doesn't have to deal with his misogyny if he doesn't see women.
Ooooor it just doesn't make sense.
No, no, you're cooking. I can see that interpretation.
I donβt see it when the lady saying βbroβ after he loses the visor. βBroβ is not something ladies really say.
My daughter has entered the chat bro.
Really?
Maybe it's linguistic continuity to show they are the same person from before the visor was removed. Or...
Maybe women can just say "bro".
Edit: I'm not calling you a sexist or anything, but it's a weird deduction to make based on very subjective/anecdotal "evidence". I've interacted with a lot of women online they use "bro" pretty freely.
They can, but thatβs really more a dude thing.
But women can be dudes too
Speak for yourself, bruh. We may not all say it, or say it as frequently as men do, but some of us absolutely have "bro" and its varieties within our regular vocabulary.
Honestly, I grew up using "dude" the same way (it was unavoidable when you grew up surrounded by brothers and male cousins in the 90s.) "Bro" was adopted later on. It has the same gender-coded tinge to it, but since "dude" already made sense to me, "bro" never felt strange to say.
Bro, what.
I (afab) call my husband, sisters, and female friends bros, dudes, dawgs, and guys.
Whether Iβm a lady is debatable, because Iβm a little rough around the edges, but Iβm definitely female and wear skirts.
Damn that's good. Yeah kind of like how we often see men as "default people" so if you're just picturing a person you're often thinking of a man without realising it - without even gendering them.
