Sven and Faye's "relationship"
Alex C:
Surgoshan, it is imperative that you repost this story in the "Something you probably don't know about me" thread. Go now, for great justice.
Surgoshan:
But I didn't take off every zig!
I just struggled with my belt while staggering toward my bathroom.
I almost made it.

So your recommended response to a completely honest sexual partner would be to severely hurt them instead of telling them how you feel (and leaving?)?
Alex C:
Man, being a strong female has nothing to do with punching guys in the gonads. A strong female would go about her business and refuse to become involved in relationships that did not meet her terms. Unlike Mr. Shawronska I'm not misguided enough to hold someone like Faye in contempt, but that doesn't change the fact that the character is too conflicted over what amounts to normal issues to really be considered a particularly "strong" person at this point in her life. She's a fundamentally decent and responsible person since she readilly recognizes that how she feels and how she should act are sometimes two different things, but until she's in a place where she can consistently act upon that knowledge, she's a hard person to call "strong."
Mr. Skawronska:

I think "recommended response" and "what Faye would do" are being mixed up.
And yes, I hold Faye in Contempt. It's part of the comic's charm to me, and I make no apologies about it.
One day I may tire of her being bitch-slapped, and I'll concentrate more on what I like about Hanners, Dora, Marten, Steve, and even Pintsize.
But today is not that day.
Tomorrow ain't lookin too promisin' either.
