    Like I said, it doesn’t work that way. You are being extremely misogynistic if you have to declare that you’re not before anyone even makes a reply.

      I bet you would have assumed I am a misogynist if I hadn’t mentioned it at all in my initial comment above. Something about this comic artist specifically just brings out the most rabid mental gymnastics in people. As I said, I know that she encourages this behaviour too. Before I blocked her on Reddit I remember seeing a few of her comics where the “joke” was literally just “haha look at how dumb and sexist my haters are”

        I wouldn’t have thought twice if you didn’t make that point. IDGAF if you’re a fan of the comic artist or style. I’m not a huge fan of this comic but it’s cute and her ability to create as much as she does makes me respect her. I am a fan of the newspaper style comic strip format, she does it very well.

        People get rapid about her because they like her and her product.

        You bringing up misogyny says everything about YOU.

        You don’t want people to go there? Don’t start the process.

          The process was started when a pizzacake comic was posted. Pizzacake and their fans are notorious for calling someone sexist or misogynistic just because they don’t like her comics. You have just proven that point.

            Thank for filling me in on why but you are wrong. I didn’t know about that history but it doesn’t matter.

            If you have to start a defense with “I’m not (something) but”, you are indeed showing behavior of (something).

              I get what you’re saying but I don’t agree in this context. Especially when it’s what pizza cake is known for. If you don’t say you’re not something, then you’ll be called something anyway. That’s probably what the commenter was saying. With that being said, just because someone says I’m not sexist doesn’t automatically make them sexist believe it or not. If you don’t not know the person and you’ve never seen how they interact with people and you’re going off of one sentence, that’s not very reasonable, don’t you think? There’s a difference between saying I’m not sexist but I don’t like women and I’m not sexist but I don’t like her comics. In the eyes of pizza cake fans, it’s the same thing.
