Damn you, Willis! (Dumbing of Age)
BenRG:
The final chapter of this Book of DoA is titled 'Walking With Dina'. I'm pretty sure that today's strip is in some way part of a scene-setting for this.
IIRC, David Willis has said that one of the turning points in his life was confronting the dichotomy of his childhood beliefs against what science says and finding the former wanting. I'm wondering if the next book will be Becky and Joyce going on the same journey (with a more comedic frame of reference, of course).

Really? I don't think it's that clear.
Neko_Ali:
The part where she says she's never experienced sexual attraction before, and is in college? That her only interest in it is in a clinical sense?
I'm not reading the current pages as her expressing any kind of sexual interest in Becky. Joyce has already said she thinks the Earth is only 6000 years old.. Something that is rather at odds with well.. everything to do with being a paleontologist. So yeah.. there's the joke about 'saving' Becky from the same sort of beliefs, since they come from the same background being the joke.

I dunno, I mean, about half the panels they've been conversing, Dina had a jacket over her face.
My opinion is she's listening mostly as a way to distract herself from the situation with Joyce, with her suddenly being homeless, and likely other things. She just wants to talk, and to listen, and normally Joyce would be there, but Joyce has new friends.
As to shipping, I should clarify, I was joking.

Easy Dina, Joyce isn't Sauron.
