I like the comic as a Gestalt thing, and withhold fanship from a single character given experience.

Dora is alright. I think Marten is lame though.

I liked Dora a lot better before she hooked up with Marten. Now she's boring.

This.

she still does the shocker evey so often it just doesnt happen as much as it used to.

i would find dora to be a much more interesting character if she did the shocker on-screen

the is much more likely to do the show stopper

Your definite article lacks a referent. I find this disturbing.

Hmmm...

Dora's my favorite. She's one of the few really nice characters (Hanners, Marten are the others) and she is completely crazy in a way that produces more haha moments than holy-crap-someone-just-killed-Steve moments (I don't really like Steve).

MonkeyBrains · « **Reply #57 on:** 25 May 2009, 10:24 »

Dora's boring. If she had a job like Steve's, maybe then I'd consider liking her as a character.

I get people not liking that they're trying to change Dora, but I don't find anything particularly sexual about the tween Dora. I suggest that if looking at that picture turns someone one on, there maybe something skewed with that individual rather than the image.

Lyndsay Lohan was ok until she started with the drinking. Until that point she hadn't done any parts that were particularly sexual in nature. I blame shoddy parenting and money-grubbing people who pander to these kids' every whim for the sake of making a buck.

KeepACoolin · « **Reply #64 on:** 26 May 2009, 08:52 »

To clarify: I do not find teeny bopper Dora attractive. I just think it's fairly obvious that the marketing scheme has been- er, "altered." It's subliminal.

That would probably be because they were planning on making merch targeted towards tweens who grew up with Dora. They were just trying to extend her saleability to include an older demographic.

I have seen girls in their 20s with teletubbies. Go figure

30's, if you count keychains.

Reminds me of a woman I saw the other day, must have been about 40, had a My Little Pony tshirt and everything

I want this t-shirt!

JD · « **Reply #70 on:** 27 May 2009, 11:56 »

That is a pretty sweet shirt.

sissi · « **Reply #71 on:** 10 Jun 2009, 09:52 »

I do love her, but not so much anymore now that she's blonde

xiansantos · « **Reply #72 on:** 10 Jun 2009, 17:19 »

Yeah, I like her old hair better. It was much sexier and fits her character better. (bicurious hot chick!)

Her new hair looks kind of a mess. It's almost as if she's grown a bit complacent about her looks, now that she's already hooked up with Marten.

I like Dora, and have been rooting for her from the start. I kinda like how her hair is now. Its kinda cool.

I guess she's outgrown her goth days. Her soul has been redeemed.

Her hair reflects her soul. It is bright on the inside with a dark ring around it.

Bi-curious hot chick? For it is inconceivable an attractive, femme woman could be genuinely attracted to men and women equally. Oh, and I love how she needs a smackdown for "letting herself go". What are you thinking Dora!

xiansantos · « **Reply #82 on:** 14 Jun 2009, 07:29 »

Well, so far, she hasn't demonstrated any bisexual behavior yet, nor have I read any strips where she (seriously) identifies herself as one.
The occasional smacking of faye's ass does not count.

So, yeah. Bi-curious.

JD · « **Reply #83 on:** 14 Jun 2009, 07:35 »

Didn't she have naughty thoughts about Hanners?

xiansantos · « **Reply #84 on:** 14 Jun 2009, 08:03 »

Yeah, but until she positively identifies herself as bisexual, the more accurate term will be bi-curious.
Being bi-curious doesn't preclude her being genuinely attracted to members of the same sex.

celticgeek · « **Reply #85 on:** 14 Jun 2009, 08:54 »

Dora and girls:

Bi-curious

Making out with a DJ at a gay nightclub: #404. DJ was a "her".

Though of course she might have been kidding about that one, grabbing Faye's breasts was fairly blatant (#415).

A while back, and I'm not sure what search terms to use to find it, someone put together a list of all the occasions on which Dora was hitting on Faye. It was a long list.
