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.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

The people that complain about men weighing in too much will also complain about men not opening up enough or refusing to talk about insecurities. They want others to share vulnerabilities and support vocally but keep criticism and dissent to themselves. Their real annoyance is not how often someone speaks but what they have to say.
Also, people may call this sealioning but I feel when someone is criticising others on a public platform or where others are in earshot, it's an open invitation for that person or a member of that group to respond. Expecting that someone should not be able to defend themselves is just absurd. You lose your right to a safe space to vent when you start judging others, so you better be prepared to back it up.
