This elicited a genuine smile from me.

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 20 points 1 week ago

What happened to Rihanna?

There is a comic that goes into this premise called: "Y the last man". It is an amazing read if you are into comics. It paints an interesting view of what would happen if all men suddenly all died except for one.

So just a wish-fulfillment harem then.

[–] Senal@programming.dev 11 points 1 week ago (2 children)

It's really not, definitely worth a read

[–] tetris11@feddit.uk 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I think there were some situations that could have ended like that (reverse harem?), had he not been so well protected. Also I like that the women just largely adapted, because they had to.

His only use was protecting their future, not their present

[–] Senal@programming.dev 2 points 1 week ago

Yeah, it could definitely have gone a different way and there were certainly actors pushing for that with various motives.

That it didn't end up that way but still touched on the topic in general made it a much better read IMO.

[–] GorGor@startrek.website 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Ive heard good things about that comic, less so about the TV series.

A dark comedy take is Creamerie. Definitely recommend.

[–] Senal@programming.dev 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I vaguely recall the TV show (and that it wasn't great).

Also, if any of you are old enough to remember the TV show "sliders" there was an episode that dealt with this same general scenario.

Probably tied to a machine that hmmm. Suck you dry all day long. I don't he would have much fun.

[–] hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

But if there was only one person with a dick alive, wouldn't it still restrict the gene pool way too much, as every child conceived after the mass disappearance of penis-owners would have the same father, and thus they would have no choice but to either reproduce with older women or their half-siblings? So I'm not sure if even that could prevent human exctinction.

[–] Siethron@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

I assume young girls didn't disappear. So any male children could have partners close to their age, just a little older.

[–] gaybriel_fr_br@jlai.lu 0 points 1 week ago

For the author that's probably a fantasy, who comes up with that otherwise? Yikes though for that mental imagery 😬

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

It isn't and I'd like to read the sexy parody but afaik it doesn't exist.

It's somehow both feminist and whatever the male version is; it shows how direly certain careers need women, and because of it, how essential men are to society since they do work women don't as much.

One of the earliest shown characters is a woman that goes from model to ... Mass grave corpse collection/garbage truck driver

That's the first time I came across the Pinkertons, and then later realised they were a real agency.

Also, I love the ending

[–] Deadlytosty@feddit.nl 2 points 1 week ago

Yeah the end had me in tears. Really impactful and beautifully done.

[–] theUwUhugger@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Femboys are still there, nothing was lost 🤷‍♂️

[–] somerandomperson@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Well yes, but ...

No, it didn't. I typed what i intended to.

[–] WillFord27@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Nobody else find this comment fucked up?

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk -4 points 1 week ago (2 children)
[–] theUwUhugger@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yea? Thats why they would remain? Thats why I am not worried?

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Anyone who isn't gay wouldn't be worried tbh

[–] some_kind_of_guy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

They should be

[–] tetris11@feddit.uk -1 points 1 week ago (2 children)

in terms of repopulating the human race, I hear you.

in terms of 'traditional' men finding girly romantic partners, trust me, there'll be no issue

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago

Thankfully a brave soul is doing his best to research this topic.

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 5 points 1 week ago (2 children)
[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

So, a lot of trad guys lean republican, and while it's irresponsible to say all of them are closeted, a shocking number of them are.

They should, they're using your religion as a cudgel.

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I am aware. And I hate it. Especially when people assume that I'm one of them. It causes me deep distress how people hide behind Christ as a justification for immoral actions.

[–] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's almost like the instruction manual is full of justifying immoral actions

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The Bible is full of justifications for immoral actions, is it any surprise those that follow it do the same thing?

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 1 points 1 week ago
[–] tetris11@feddit.uk 1 points 1 week ago

If it's the closest thing they'll get to their idealised version of a woman?

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I guess it's only fair after that kill all men incident, that someone does a kill all women to.

But it would be better if we actually treated each other like human beings instead.

[–] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 3 points 1 week ago

We do treat each other like human beings. Human beings treat each other awfully.

[–] Aaron_Davis@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

This is reminding me of a song.

[–] TomMasz@piefed.social 4 points 1 week ago

A bit over the top but it gets the job done.

[–] M137@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Only one female smurf type fantasy. She wants all the dick to herself.
