sitnspin:
The body isn't literally changing his sense of propriety, it is being IN the new body that his changing his sense of propriety, ala the change in circumstances and perception. As others have said, it's growing up. And honestly, I worry about folks who feel put upon by there being LESS sexual harassment in the series.

Mr_Rose:
Apart from anything else, he’s had a literal change of perspective. As in, he’s face-to-face with everyone else all of a sudden, rather than face-to-knee.
Or knee to face if he’s being particularly trying…

Perfectly Reasonable:

--- Quote from: ihaveavoice on 25 Jun 2021, 02:12 ---I was kinda hoping that Pintsize would just sort of be like, "Eh, addressing women by their tits or whatever doesn't feel amusingly transgressive to do in this body. It just feels like being an asshole," rather than having his behavior forcibly limited by some protocol included in his new chassis. It seems like the sort of conclusion he'd come to, like when he realized having May sit on his face didn't do anything for him.

That might still happen. Did Pintsize change because of his new chassis, or did he get a new chassis to better reflect his growth? He might be in denial a bit here and wanting to 'blame' his body for his propriety.

I like this notion. Perhaps Pintsize will return to his former body and discover it just doesn't feel 'right' anymore. Thought at first it would be like Roko's struggle with 'Oopsie-Guard' but this would be a more mature direction for the comic.

Shjade:
I mean that is almost literally what he's saying in the strip. He's not complaining about programming, he's complaining about psychology and propriety.

He might as well be saying "curse this new height" or "curse this new perspective", it ends up meaning the same thing as "curse this new body" in context.


Edit: I just noticed my current forum rank and haha, oh dear, "FIGHT YOU" isn't exactly the best accompaniment to trying to convey a meaningful position xD

Thrillho:
The male experience of becoming aware you are a threat even by accident is not an easy one but it is the easier one.
