Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for September 11, 2005
Transcript:
"I have a truism to declare..." "Oh, great." "No man is friends with a woman unless he wants to hook up with her...There are no exceptions to this rule." "Are you done?" "No. I have another truism to declare...Every woman thinks the guy she's friends with is somehow an exception to this rule. She is wrong." "Alright, that does it...Listen, Rat...Just because shallow little you has trouble being friends with women doesn't mean other guys can't be friends with women." "I'll grant you that there may not be a lot of them, but believe me, there are some unique men out there who legitimately like having platonic friendships with women." "Alright...I shall make an exception for them." "...You will?" "Yes...Eunuch men are an exception." "Never mind." "Those poor, poor eunuch men."

Wow. Danman1979 really did get all his posts removed when he got banned. My old comment here was moot.

Fun fact: Stephan got a call from his syndicate after they received the strip about a word he had to cut. You may think it was “eunuch” in the last two panels, but it was actually “straight” (second panel, “no [straight] man”). Clearly United Features had something against geometry.
