I love how they get less happy the more pedantic they're being XD
Their hair also slowly shifts upwards, as they charge their super Saiyan power
Plus it helps us realize that since they have more masculine haircuts they are even smarter, right?
Because it wouldn't make sense for the initial female to look the same and still be a physicist, right?
Just pointing out that bias may also be affecting the cartoon too, even if not maliciously intended
I'm pretty sure it's the same hair, just getting more and more disheveled (frizzy and standing on-end) using a simpler art style. Not different hair styles entirely
No, it's shorter and more masculine... since more masculine people do hard science like physics while even a regular mom who is a little bit smart could learn biology. (I don't think this.) I am just pointing it out, it probably wasn't done with intentiinal sexism.
I be you’re really fun at parties.
And on lemmy
I'm fairly sure SMBC isn't being misogynistic. They have no issue at all frequently featuring same-sex couples, fem-coded scientists and so on, as a perfectly normal part of the world. This is either you reading something into it, or a sheer coincidence.
It's possible it's a coincidence.
The idea that scientists, especially hard scientists, have a certain look is something many think... so despite literally everyone on lemmy downvoting me, i still think it's important to notice when these things coincidentally happen or don't coincidentally happen
However you are saying SMBC is very tolerant and unbiased and I believe you. I was't saying it was sexism, I was just noticing it. But I understand the defensive reaction: if the comic creator is generally accepting of many people's identitites then they are less likely to have done this with any sort of biased intent and the comic creator is probably cool and not prejudiced.
