Peanuts Begins by Charles Schulz for January 31, 2019

harsh, isn’t it, Sherman?

Well, you can’t argue with that.

Stop

Oh boy.

Time to get in touch with your feminine side, Shermy.

Your father is a boy! Your grandfather is a boy! Your husband will be a boy! And all your sons will be boys, too!! So there!

Being technically true for both sides, it is not that big of a deal either way.

I’m so confused.

Ah, those were the days…

Too true… back when kids would weaponize someone’s sex, for whatever reason. :-|

Panel 2 presumes things that are not in evidence at their age: who is to say Shermy will ever marry? And if he does, who is to say he will end up with a “wife”? Oh, the things the 50s never saw coming… :-P

These days we can’t be so sure…..

What is missing is Sherman’s previous comment of “Ahh…you’re just a girl!”

A girl using that as an insult…?

#MeToo

Life was so much simpler then. Now, a girl is only a girl until she decides she’s not…

“girls,” such a dated concept!

Oh dear, a radical feminist.

The oldest strip appeared on December 5 in which Charlie Brown was first named. Patty was first named on December 26 and Snoopy on January 8. Shermy has yet to be named specifically in this iteration of the strips, but I know it is coming soon.

Chastity Bono was a girl. Was…

She really gave it to him! Boy!!!
