Those curtains are horrible, regardless of your gender. Source: I’m male (for now, at least)
Shrimp or questioning?
Yeah I mean, you gotta be something special to think light green polka dots on a medium green background is a good look for a curtain.
“Shabby chic”
I feel like this would be funny if the text in the top left corner just wasnt there. Like the shrimp just randomly transforms into an arch user for no reason
Different joke. This one is funny because trans women have a tendency to be arch users.
Except trans lesbians, which go for debian (can confirm am debian user)
Hanna Montana OSUniversal BlueActually funnier.

Meh, I don’t agree with these gender stereotypes, but they’re all something we can relate to and find silly.

I’m not saying you’re wrong about stereotypes, but I am saying you’re terminally online if you truly believe that it’s a small group.

If you wanna mince words, fight a dictionary.
so it’s not a boomer joke, but instead a millennial joke.

i used to read the funny pages when i was like 5 back in the 90s, so whether I was the intended audience or not, that kind of humor still got to me.
That is humour shaming!

You don’t think women generally give more attention the appearance of curtains, walls, and furnitures?

Why doesn’t the writer of the comic just have him put on a dress and play with a Barbie? Since that’s basically what the joke is. Maybe it’s just me but this one’s fuckin dumb.
Some times dumb things can still be funny.
True, humor is subjective and I guess I just personally didn’t find it in this one
It is. And yet, it just harvests upvotes. I don’t get it.
Women have more ability to perceive colors due to physical differences. Link
Edit: guys the image is to give you an idea of what it’s like. Read the article. There is an actual observed, measurable statistically significant difference in color perception.
That’s just saying colorblindness is more common in men, and tetrachromacy is more common in (maybe exclusive to?) women. It’s still really rare tho (estimated 2-3% in that link)
speaking of tetrachromacy, listen to the Polygondwanaland album by King Gizzard And The Lizzard Wizard
Exclusive to women, as it’s a rare mutation that requires two X chromosomes.
There could be a rare, rare case of someone with XXY chromosomes also getting it, but that would be two very rare human conditions hitting at once.

This is utter bollocks. The implication here is that I shouldn’t physically be able to tell the difference between any of the colours in each group
Semi pro chiming in here: the infographic took an idea and ran the wrong way with it. Women are more sensitive to color, but it has to do with the context. They pick up more subtle colors without direct comparison. Its not that men can’t see the difference between lavender and piriwinkle when they’re next to each other, they’re just more likely to think their the same color if viewed sepparately.
It’s also worth noting that around age 35, both sexes lenses have yellowed enough that there’s no notable difference.

I don’t think anyone without color blindness would say any two colors on that drawing are the same color.

Then the curtains should have changed color on the last panel if that thought ever even took a poo in the author’s head
Show, don’t tell. The author also broke that rule in Panel 5 with “sex change
occurssounds” written off to the side. We see the 𝓶𝓪𝓰𝓲𝓬 𝓫𝓾𝓫𝓫𝓵𝓮. Clearly, that means the sex change occurred in the context of the setup. We get it, dude.
Unfortunately, I suspect the creators intent is to not normalize transgender in nature, but simple to get a cheap laugh at the expense of traditional gender roles.
Fortunately for us, the intent of the art has little to do with how it’s perceived
“Death of the author” serves us all again.
I thought that too. But the shrimp saved this story.
Boomer humour it’s still fun
I wish I was a shrimp…still cis thoI would have put JK Rowling peeking in
She’s much too crabby.
Shrimp is bugs
Sand-sational.
“I’ve suddenly received the urge to be put on a Barbie.”
Oh boy (or whatever), OP, have you walked into the wrong neighborhood. Half of the userbase is trans, 99% are feminist. I’m not entirely sure how you got this 80% upvote ratio.
anyways, get the f out with your boomer jokes.
What a comm-ocean.
It’s 85% now and it’s probably because it’s just a fucking funny drawing of a shrimp drinking tea and speaking silly stuff… (it may also be because being trans or feminist has nothing to do with humor, stop pandering)
All these MFers trying to krill my vibe.
Oh wow, you’re riding the wave here.
Sometimes you just got to seas the moment.
