WCDT Strips 3601-3605 (30rd October - 3rd November 2017)
BenRG:
In today's strip we learn something important: Sharing hygiene facilities is never easy, especially if your room-mates don't clean up after themselves! Still, Faye seems to have a history of bathroom-related bad luck. Remember that time she fell into the bowl because Angus left the seat up? She should be getting used to the fact that the bathroom is a minefield for her without her glasses on!
Meanwhile, I honestly think that this is the first time that I've ever seen Claire just relaxed and doing leisure stuff on her own. I also find it very age-indicative in some ways.

With regard to "emotional intelligence" at least, that is simply drivel. The term was invented, and popularised, by men, in terms of general success in life, without reference to gender. Would I be right in thinking that you have not read Daniel Goleman's book?:
"Although the term first appeared in a 1964 paper by Michael Beldoch, it gained popularity in the 1995 book by that title, written by the author, psychologist, and science journalist Daniel Goleman. Since this time, Goleman's 1995 analysis of EI has been criticized within the scientific community, despite prolific reports of its usefulness in the popular press."
It could have been worse, Faye. Claire could have black hair.
USS Martenclaire:
Spider hair, spider hair
You can find it anywhere
In the bed, shower floor,
Makes Faye mad, hear her roar
Look out, here comes the spider hair....

--- Quote from: KnightRider007 on 01 Nov 2017, 01:52 ---"It's so attractive when a man dodges emotional labor" Wow, a trait that can be just as easily applied to both sexes, suddenly the basis of a sexist accusation? I really don't think "Not wanting to be the one to attempt to establish a relationship" is in any way a male-exclusive trait...

I couldn't agree more. It appeared clearly in one of the first QC comics, by the way

I can't see why feminists would need to do that.
