Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Or they are just non-native english speakers
Yeah, but those people don't get defensive when you comment on it, while those who are raising the red flag immediately do. It's pretty easy to tell them apart from that point forward.
What a sweetheart you are. Can't even let a webcomic get away with not being inclusive.
Pretty sure non natives will be the first ones to use "woman" and not "female". I know it's not something we say in French anyway, a woman is a woman.
Problematic part
Blague à part, il existe d'autres langue (non-indo-européennes) ou la distinction est moins aisée à faire. Par exemple en Hongrois on dit "nő" pour "femme" et "nőstény" pour "femelle", mais on peut les interchanger dans certains cas et les traducteurs automatiques s'y emmêlent les pinceaux des fois.
Intéressant à savoir!
