Richard Stevens responded via email to a post I wrote about a cartoon of his that offended me.
Your first commenter is dead-on correct!
My first commenter suggested that, “The better value joke is not a negative view on gay people, it’s the joke that being Bi gets you laid more than anyone else.”
Okay. I thought too hard about the comic, trying to figure out the meaning behind the specific word choice in the last panel. I would just suggest that Richard Stevens be a bit more careful with the word value when used in jokes pertaining to gay people. We’re still licking our wounds (and others gays’ wounds… sorry…) over damage inflicted by other meanings of that word.
I was wrong. To the stocks with me.
The stocks? Now now Reed, you’ve been a little naughty but lets not get kinky all of a sudden.
