    Whoa, Joyce may not have been ready for sex, but Joe was not prepared for this.

      Joyce may not be prepare for penetration, but she could probably finish Joe off with a few good wiggles from right where she is. And I doubt he’d mind.

      Yeah I would think Joe walked into this date fully expecting Joyce to get nervous/upset/guilty/anything else and that nothing overly physical would happen. He’ll he might be more shocked by the events of last night than Joyce.

        It can be several things, one of which is an autistic thing. For me it’s an ADHD thing. Got a weighted blanket and now I sleep like the dead all winter (summer too hot for blanket)

          You should look into Silk and Snow’s blankets – I was hesitant at first since they’re a bit spendy and I live in a hot climate, but I got the heaviest one and haven’t regretted it a single day and use it year ’round. It’s pleasantly chunky.

      I mean what’s “weird”?

      it’s shown that neurodivergents brains including autistics show more diversity among each other than the whole of all brains in the entire human species

      as it turns out, theres many many ways to diverge

          I can’t tell if the person above you meant “more diversity in neurodivergent brains than in non-neurodivergent brains” or if they meant “measured by average distance from the mean, the neurodivergent set is more diverse than the total set”. Either or both being true wouldn’t surprise me.

              Right, but you were posting gibberish from the Rational Wiki the other day, so I kind of assumed you weren’t talking about the supernatural meanings.

                  This is like the third time you’ve interpreted a basic question from me as “trolling”. Do you just not understand what trolling is? Do you go to a restaurant and accuse the waiter of trolling you when they ask what you’d like to drink? It would be a waste of my time and life to bother trolling you, and it’s just as much of a waste for you to spend so much time paranoid that I’m doing it. You’re like obsessed with the idea, to the extent you’ll bring it up over a normal fucking request for clarity. If you can’t get over your paranoia, genuinely seek help, or at least find another person to point it at. Jesus Christ, dude.

          I don’t read this storyline like this at all. The story or characterization is not about “will Joyce finally have cishet sex”, it’s about Joyce dealing with her internalized baggage and preconception of “will I finally have [cishet, penetrative] sex?”

          The story itself actually counters this internalized standard quite a bit: both through characters telling Joyce to take her time and do what she wants; and through Joyce’s own realizations and ability to deal with her internalized baggage in real time (and/or blundering through some of it, and hopefully she’ll circle back and realize some more soon).

            Even if it’s about her baggage related to P-i-V sex, it’s still ultimately about will or won’t she have P-i-V sex with a man. Which I have realised the last couple days/weeks, is making me personally uncomfortable.

              Kind of personally hoping that Willis is going to deconstruct that idea by Joyce talking to Roz again. Joyce says “we’ve done other stuff, but not sex” and Roz goes, “oh by a lotta people’s definitions, you’ve already had sex then! Sex can look like lots of things, hand-jobs, oral, mutual masturbation” That might shock Joyce and make her reevaluate her own experiences so far.

              I forget, has anyone dispelled the myth that hymens are the tell-all of sexual penetration for her? That panic could be coming down the line too.

    Joyce need a weighted blanket but I don’t think anyone makes one in that weight range. I’m assuming Joe is in the 100 kg range (220-225 pounds in Freedom Units) and Joyce is claiming that is insufficient. The heaviest weight blanket I have seen advertised was about 40-50 pounds.

    Not so much the compression, but as someone who has historically dated men roughly my own size, I didn’t realize how comfortable a looming presence like Joe can be. It’s full-body comfort, like being in an oversized chair. I get this, for a given value of get this.

          I’ve only seen the intro to that movie one time and I still have the image of Charlie Sheen swinging a bottle of vodka burned into my brain.

    Smoosh me flat!
    Then fold me in thirds and drop me off at the nearest UPS depot.

    What can “Brown” do for you today?

    hmmm, good point Joyce. men are generally the ones with the build most suitable for neurospicy compression
    I don’t think it’s made me any more bi, but I understand straight women a little more now

    i’m so here for Joyce’s era of “OMG having a partner means i can meet my autism needs???“
    i hope she discovers stimming & soothing mechanisms that don’t require another human being. Like weighted blankets.
    But as long as other-human is happy to do it, go for it!

    I have never sympathized as much with Joyce as I do in this strip.

    (why am I not at home right now with a large soft woman sitting on me hnnngh)

    I think it’s hilarious that Joyace has no idea what’s she is doing to Joe. And Joe deserves this discomfort from being the sex pest he used to be. Joe has rediscovered his own innocence. It’s kind of cute.

    I firmly believe at this point that Joe’s secondary role is to be Joyce’s hydraulic press
