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.

I'm a man. I like being a man. I like the other men in my life. I'm not being sexist, and neither is this comic. You claim I have a negative attitude attached to a gender... I've only criticized rapists. Is hating rapists equivalent to hating men? I've been very clear in my beliefs and why I hold them, and all you've done is some racial what-aboutism. Seriously man, have a think about this one. We're on the same side - the difference being when I see stuff hating on men, I blame the men that give us a bad name, not the women that have chosen to be cautious around men for their own safety. If I ever encountered a woman scared by my presence, I wouldn't get upset and think "wow what a bitch she hates men just for being men". I would become saddened that the world we live in puts women in a position that they fear men.

contributing factors like socioeconomic status or substance issues

It's because of these factors that there is nuance with these kinds of jokes.
