WCDT Strips 3241 - 3245 (13-17 June 2016)
DSL:
I'm going to fall back on what Jeph said about his creation a long time ago: No one in the strip is 100 percent right or good; no one in the strip is 100 percent wrong or bad. (Beatrice was pushing it, but even she had her redeeming qualities. Quality. Moment.)
I'll keep that in mind when evaluating this new Renee.
blue5:
There are people who are naturally cautious because of upbringing or previous negative experiences. Some guys can be badly, but then again women do it too. Caution is fine, but lashing out is a poor way of dealing with things. Without understanding or stepping back to understand a situation creates more enemies than friends. There runs a risk of generalizing all people based on the actions of a minority of a gender.

And quite honestly, I'm good with that. If giving up my cis straight white middle class U.S. southern male privilege for a while is all I have to do so someone else feels more comfortable, I'll just have to cope.

Everybody is different. And I respect your position. I see absolutely nothing wrong wit a person being cis or white. There is a myth of male privilege but that is a discussion for another day. You are the person you are and your uniqueness is something that makes you who you are. I am non white, but being from a multi racial and cultural society educates that everyone is unique and deal with the hand they are dealt.
osaka:
If this is indeed the Renee from TSB, it's nice to see that there's more to her than "Black Faye" to put it bluntly. Even if she comes across as pretty unlikable to some (including me).
I do understand the whole being protective thing, but we should remember that one of the things that survived the fire is Brun's harpoon. I'm sure she'd have used it if Clinton / anybody tried anything dumb.
