Being that Sam acts likes shes 12 I'd sooner not have anything to do with her and sexuality in this comic for a good long while

As of Strip 3161, Sam is 14 years old, just so you know. Still rather young but old enough that the first crush may come crashing through the window at any second!

Sure shes 14 but she acts like a 12 year old but be that as it may I'd still rather not see this author attempt that type of story line, it's one thing to get it wrong with adults (today's strip for example) but its quite another when it involves a young teenager

Unless Northampton is suddenly overrun by sultry snake-men, she's probably fine.

--- End quote ---
What makes you think the author, who has shown years of interpersonal sensitivity, thinks it's not horrid? I think it's an excellent page, in part for that very fact, that what's happening is horrid, simply because Union Robotics didn't think that part through. That's horrid, but the question is, how does Union Robotics respond, when someone tries to let them know? It might be an honest mistake, but depending on the response, that honest mistake becomes willful negligence. The proper response would be to listen to the person's concerns, understand them, figure out the different ways to change, and then implement the best change, to most improve the service.
In our world, that rarely happens---first they'd dismiss the person's concerns, or bullshit their way out of it; then, if the person persists, insisting the concern be heard, they actively play stupid, intentionally misinterpreting what the person is describing, even going so far as pretending the person said something else entirely. In a rare case, that it gets past this stage---now they know the concern. Sometimes, they still do nothing. More often, they try to put some temporary fix, that's not a solution, and the problem reoccurs. If they do try to solve the problem, often, their solution is nowhere near the best---sometimes, worse than what was before. The only time they'd implement anything near the optimal solution, was when I spelled it out for them.
I'd also like you to inspect the documents your doctor has you complete. You might find some dangerous clauses you're `agreeing' or highly sensitive data you're volunteering, unnecessary for treatment.

The author commentary around the strip, for starters.
"r o b o t b u t t s"
"nice"
Also, see that angling of their heads and their dazed expressions? He's played that joke of this cast admiring butts before.
He also provided some unsubtle fan service in panel 2.
Nah, I don't see any evidence that it occurred to him.
