marcusto:

I try to draw my dudes like that all the time, don’t I?

I was going to try and write a legitimate rant on this subject, weighing in on something problematic with this strip, and whatever else… but then Marcus To showed up and said something crazy adorable.
So yeah. Huh.

That’s why we love him!
But as far as problematic goes, yeah, some girls do find muscledudes attractive and not kissable faces. But the reason comic guys are hulks is entirely because it’s a male power fantasy. How could it NOT be? It’s men drawing them!
And I think Amber was supposed to be speaking for herself here-since she said “like myself” idk. And a lot of girls DON’T find that attactive (superhero muscles personally freak me out. I value dexterity too)
