Within context the comic in question was titled 'Mr. Robot, My Girlfriend and me'. In this case is this really a stereotype? I mean I watch a lot of geeky TV too and this sort of thing happens to me when I'm watching those shows with my girlfriend. Also, this isn't done with the intention of malice. Shouldn't that be of some consideration? If this is an issue then, Shouldn't we also talk about how the humor isn't just aimed at her but at the male characters in the story? Aren't the male characters (overused) stereotypical geeks? I mean on the edge of their seats over a DDOS attack? After all It's not like the Borg or weeping angels attacked. I always thought that great art/comedy reflected real world experiences and that it was just fine for any artist express that. Is that not the case? Yes The artist can and should be critiqued but he and other creators are under no obligation to change their art or be guilted into changing their vision to suit others (subjective) tastes. |
