Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for January 09, 1986
Transcript:
Calvin: We are a fierce and dirty band of cutthroat pirates! Keep a sharp lookout, matey. We want no sissy girls on our ship! Hobbes: We don't like girls? Calvin: Of course not, dummy! We're a murderous bunch of pirates, remember?! Hobbes: Who do we smooch then?
Pirates were convicts, who could find no refuge in state so took to life on the sea. So yeah, pirates engaged in man-to-man relations.
