kaible: rootbeergoddess: panic-volkushka: Clients’ names and personal information have been omitted to retain their privacy. I love this comic. I love it so much. Excuse me while I also talk a bit about Family Guy here. I used to enjoy Family Guy. Yeah, it was crude and crass but the writing was clever. Some of the jokes were extremely funny. But as time went on, the more they started to care less. Or at least that is how I feel. And the more feminist I became and the more I learned how harmful certain ‘jokes’ are, the more I began to hate. Especially when it comes to Meg. Meg is not a terrible charecter. She isn’t evil, she’s not a villian. Yet she gets treated like complete and utter crap because….honestly, I don’t know why! The writers say they don’t know how to write teenaged girls but I call bullcrap on that. Meg has been abused by not just Peter but her mother and brother too. Her mother, who should be trying protect her daughter, demeans her in every possible way and that is suppose to be funny. That’s the joke. Meg in pain is the joke. And isn’t funny. People say, “It’s just a cartoon” but we know that media influences how people think and having Meg being hurt physically and emotionally is dangerous because there are going to be people who see that and think that is okay. And the way Chris is portrayed also shows how children learn from their parents and can end up being abusers. This comic really is fantastic I feel like this is the spiritual sequel to Boy’s Night that none of us knew we needed but we absolutely did Also, I feel like this brings up a pretty interesting point: Even though Hank Hill is often confused and disappointed with Bobby, he is never physically abusive towards him or anyone in the family, and is willing to show his son he loves him. Bobby may be a constant source of confusion for him, but he’s not below learning to accept his son for who he is, and given that Hank takes a lot of pride in being a red-blooded american man, when american media is so obsessed with the ideal of “comically” abusive and negligent fathers, that’s pretty damn important. -- source link
