When you turn these statements on their head, you realize just how ridiculous they are.
“Someone recommended I follow [Laura Danger] after my,” Starr told HuffPost. “I was immediately struck by her posts that had quotes by ‘men’ that were clearly quotes by women that she had edited so they looked like they were from the male perspective.”
“I read these posts aloud to my husband, and he needed me to repeat many of them because they sounded so confusing from the male perspective that they were almost hard to follow,” she added. “But from the female’s perspective, they sounded ‘right.’”That gave Starr the idea to illustrate these statements in comic form.
Since sharing the post on Instagram, Starr has received tons of messages from women around the world saying how much these comics have affected them, regardless of where they live. Many people have also told her that they found the comics “difficult to read” or that they made them “uncomfortable” because seeing the words come out of the mouth of a man instead of a woman was so unfamiliar.
“So many of us have said these exact same things ourselves — not the flipped version, of course — but seeing them switched around shows how sexist and unfair they really are,” Starr said. “It hits hard when presented this way, which is why I love Laura’s work so much.”
