But wait, we’ve seen him/her topless many times in the comic! You mean she’s flatter than Olive Oyle?

Jon is too stupid to be female.

I believe the idea is he’s a wuss for not kicking Garfield out in the cold when the brat needs it. I suspect “weak sister” is more the correct term.

Don’t forget Lassie was played by a male.

“Lassie” was always played by a male. No wonder Timmy kept getting stuck in the well - “Lassie” never stopped for directions back home.

Jon Arbuckle a woman? Not true! Then he’d dress better.

(Don’t think Garfield is funny? Your loss. Admitting that there are really only about 8 or 10 jokes in Garfield, I am constantly amazed and amused by the endless imagination of variations on so few themes. Maybe you’re confusing Garfield with Heathcliff.)

I agree Garfield has never really been funny, even when he eats lasagna!!

If Jon Arbuckle is the man his cartoonist SAYS he, is, then the cartoonist should find him a woman who can make him actually smart!

Then there are two other instances of ‘guys’ being voice-cast as women in Sailor Moon…Zoicite was a male character who was voiced by a woman (probably Bixby got her that role) in part to avoid any homosexual issues as the character had more than an infatuation with another male character (Kunzite)…and in Sailor Moon SuperS, Fisheye was voiced by a woman (another Bixby brain far…er, storm)even tho the character was shown topless in one ep (so flat, sooooo flat….)

Too bad Krazy Kat is gone….

For some reason, I rarely find cat strips funny, and Garfield bored me to death decades ago.

There’s one Garfield Comic that proves Jon’s a girl(See:”Garfield Shovels It In: His 51st Book”).
