Unless this alternate universe is even more alternate than we’ve seen thus far, I doubt its United States is a parliamentary democracy. Robin is a Representative, or at least she was in Shortpacked!.

We’re all forgetting that the identity of Roz’s relative in politics has not been definitively revealed. Yet.
It could be someone else, but whoever heard of a plot-twist in a Willis comic?
Mkvenner
I used the term “MP” because it is more commonly used than “Member of Congress (MC)” and is universally more recognized.
iSaidCandleja-
The US doesn’t call anyone a “Member of Congress” (MC). Instead we tend to call them Representatives. Or maybe congressmen, if it is a mixed group of Sens and Reps. America truly loves to be different.
Mkvenner
That is not always a good thing.
Jamal K.
It’s NEVER a good thing. Except in hockey, I guess.
Nah, boytoy is definitely meant more as a disparaging term to devolve the relationship and those involved. Usually the term is used with males who are younger but not always.
Boy toy can often just mean using the boy for sex. Essentially a human sex toy. Bust it out, use it to get off and discard it. Age, wealthy and stuff don’t need to apply.
The way Joe sees it: There’s no such thing as bad publicity, and the ladies now know his name. Attention women! Want to be famous? Then take a ride to Joe City, population: hot! You too can be in the paper!
Presumably, his third criteria, now that he’s an adult is:
3. Legal.
Mkvenner
4. No dudes.
Aizat
5. No punching.
iSaidCandleja-
I’m pretty sure it is:
4. No dudes… yet

Phillip Wilde
And not Robin. He wouldn’t even Joe her in the butt.
Shifty
Joe might be 17 years old. If that’s the case, legality need not apply yet.
Mkvenner
I’m pretty sure that Joe is of voting age.
Shifty
What makes you say that?
Mkvenner
The vast majority of college freshman are 18 or older.
Shifty
No they’re not. College freshmen can enter college between the ages of 17 and 18. I myself, my college roommate, my ex-boyfriend and several friends were still 17 when we first entered college, but turned 18 soon after. Joe could fit into this group, until Willis clarifies it.
Mkvenner
If turn 18 before election day, you are of voting age.
Unless Joe plans to go into teaching or a political career of some kind. That kind of publicity isn’t usually looked upon positively as Senator Wiener can attest. 😛

Classy, indeed.
iSaidCandleja-
I do love that shirt.
NCP19
No shirt could be more perfect for this exact moment.
David Herbert
What about ‘Boy toy’?
Bishop
I would buy a shirt that said “CLASSY” on it.
Plasma Mongoose
How about a CLASSY CONDOM?
Kernanator
…I think I love it.
Uorem
No avatar could be more fitting than the one you were dealt.
Uorem
IT’S SO META.
Plasma Mongoose
Yes, the condom hat is like a miniture top-hat, only naughtier.
Kernanator
It makes every comment classier and sexier.
Plasma Mongoose
Not to mention ribbed for your commenting pleasure.
Kernanator
Because she’s worth it ;P
ViviWannabe
T-Shirt Hell has one that says “fucking classy.” Would that work? I’d offer a link, but it’s NSFW.
ViviWannabe
Wait, here it is:

Thanks, google, for bypassing the work computer’s filters!
Radome
Cracked up when I read that shirt.
Mkvenner
Why, just why?
Plasma Mongoose
Why not? 😀
Cozworth
why? because it’s Joe, it’s how he’s been in all the realities so far, it’s a winning formula 😀
Aizat
Why, Why, WHY?
Plasma Mongoose
Boy Toy? Is Roz a lot older than I think she is or Joe is much younger?
Darththoth
Well, Robin is a senator, so I’d assume that everyone else is just younger.
Mkvenner
Robin’s an MP not a senator.

Joe’s not a boytoy. He’s a sexy boy.
daddy_shelton
A Shawn Michaels reference, yes!
Haituri
That song is awesome. I’m still hoping for an opportunity to embarrass a friend with it.
iSaidCandleja-
I don’t think “boy toy” is a term associated with age. At least not where I’m from. It has more to do with disposability.
Plasma Mongoose
Never thought of it that way, usually when the media mentions toy boy, it usually means the guy is much younger than the gal.
This saves me from either viewing Joe as jailbait or Roz as a couger.

Michelle Alford
Yeah, I’m with you. I actually refer to anyone that my friends are dating but isn’t yet an official “boyfriend” as a boytoy.
Dierna
Roz isn’t older. She’s just richer. *lol*

Classic Joe.

Yay! Joe’s back!

This strip is perfect.

iSaidCandleja-
Specificially mentioning that the relationship is open is certainly meant as an invitation.
Aizat
The major attraction at Joe City: Space Mountain.
Mkvenner
Which is closed. Apparently someone’s limb got caught on something or other, long story short they are suing Joe City.
Aizat
Darn it. I was going for the women are willing to wait for a long time just to get on it joke.
Mkvenner
Splash mountain is also closed.
|Agent
Do you mean SPAAAACE Mountain?
Hah! I kill me! (Someone should, anyway.)
Mkvenner
please don’t tempt me. 😐
Aizat
Sure, where do you live and how would you want to die?

Will Joe end up having a “You must be this tall to be entered” logo on his shirt?
Ancestral Hamster
No. A woman’s height doesn’t matter to Joe, just how willing.
MM
Maybe not height, but I can see something along the lines of “Your waist must be this small.”
Aizat
Or “Your boobs must be this big”
taekwondogirl
Nah, he doesn’t seem to have a thing against those who aren’t smoking hot. He’d obviously prefer hotties but he’s all about scoring as much as he can.
Ancestral Hamster
Joe doesn’t seem to be that picky. His criteria is:
1. Same species.
2. Still breathing.
Kernanator
Presumably, his third criteria, now that he’s an adult is:
3. Legal.

4. No dudes.

Yet if you assualt someone nobody hears about it.

What does assault have to do with this situation? We’re talking about sex scandals and publicity.
