I don't agree with their views but that doesn't matter.

You do realize that Xanthe isn't real right? She doesn't actually know of men on the forum, or of Tat's personal views...
Actually, you probably disagree with some twisted version of feminist views that no one here advocates.

What exactly makes her unsympathetic here? The entire point of the strip was that he was having a Rothide style response simply because he wasn't the center of attention.

Just because she's making a generalization in a state of emotional distress does not necessarily mean that she truly believes it - it especially does not mean Tat himself believes it either.

Because he was literally standing in the crowd? |
That's Sleaze not Slick, and we have been shown they are two different beings. Also that's why i used my "masked robber" analogy.
She is being hurt by someone who has some similar features to Slick, but isn't Slick.
And then she sees Slick as the perpetrator. |

That something like what you were thinking? (I know, I went with a made up java package instead of using tar commands, but the idea is the same. Don't remember enough of linux to work with it)
Also, I think only squig is aware that sleaze exists, outside of slick's trip into the mirror, as Squig saw sleaze as slick's reflection here, making sleaze known as either an alternate personality or a reflection of slick's thoughts:

It's not 'some similiar features', Sleaze looks EXACTLY like Slick. We, the readers, know he is Sleaze. The Sinfest inhabitants don't know Sleaze even exists. So how the fuck is Xanthe supposed to know it's not Slick. |

Omg, yes! Thank you! (I mentioned linux because that's the thing I've ever had to work with - and even then it was mostly copy paste.)

Interesting code snippet, but there's a little something here:
"human Subjugator=new Human(Subjugator);"
You are passing a new human as a parameter for the same Human... And thinking about it the cases are different... Perhaps Human inherits from human?
Man now I'm really curious about the rest of the code.

fun fact: seeking equality isn't about being rewarded with friends, cookies and compliments. if thats why you are interested in being an ally, odds are you aren't actually an ally.
regardless of the deal with slick and sleaze, if you've had your eye on the news lately you would know the horrible things that can happen when someone just stands by. |

You ship people because you think they'll be happy together? How quaint.
I somehow see a later strip in which Granny marches up to Slick and wordlessly snatches away his cookie, leaving him dumbfounded.

I try to go with people that I see being happy/compatable/play enough off each other.
For example:
Beast Boy / Raven
Yolie / Davis
Joe / Mimi
Megaman Trigger... ... ok sorry but Bigamy is the only option here... / Roll Volnut / Tron Bonne.
etc. etc. etc.
I also don't ship people if they have a cannon shipping, and I dont do yuri/yaoi, specially when they show no signs of homosexual or bisexual tendencies.

| as a Male Ally, I feel as if I should comment on this thread, but ensure that in doing so I am not speaking over women on the subject of feminism or appropriating life experiences which are not mine. And my comment is: fartzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz |

Considering that he ate it, I see a comical scene of Grandma reaching down a scared and confused Slicks throat and pulling out a full cookie.
