Men tend to be more (consciously) sexually attracted to DiDi's boobs, and presumably remain dimly aware that just grabbing would earn them a punch in the mouth and maybe an assault charge. Women are mostly fascinated by the sheer implausibility of the things.

Identifies as straight. Which may well still turn out to be accurate, in the long term. But there may be a chink of ambiguity there; DiDi
might yet turn out to have some capacity for bi-curiosity. Especially if it gets her that orgasm.
ExLibris wrote:DiDi may (or may not) be "not bisexuelle" as she claims, but I think this strip just adds to the evidence that she's incapable of relating to a man other than sexually.
As others have noted, DiDi is practically borderline autistic. She's a bit crap at relating to anyone, really. Which, yes, makes her less than perfectly likeable.
If and when this comic eventually winds to a conclusion, it'll be interesting to see if the authors show her somehow learning better.

And my point is that realising that he's attractive to multiple attractive women might lead him to the realisation that he quite wants some sex from it, please.
GCRust wrote:Personally, I'm rooting for a Sonya/DiDi Hook Up, mostly because it gets both of them out of the way for a bit. DiDi finally gets her conscious orgasm, and Sonya can go take a long walk off a short pier for all I care. Woman's so deep in the closet she's found Narnia.
My personal reading of Sonya is that she's one of those people who really is more interested in the right person than the right shape of genitals. The right person being defined, for her, as someone who can provide hot sex laced with lashings of melodrama and some flattery.
Which means that DiDi would be a bad option right now. Sonya is gagging for orgasmic relief, and DiDi doesn't have a clue about the mechanics of lesbian sex.

And maybe water is wet...
Fluffy wrote:Also - Sonya's reaction in panel 2 - is this simply her reaction to 1) realizing she just encouraged a non threat into being a competitor 2) stunned by the sight of Didi's melons or 3) one of those classic 'turned on to the point of brain freeze' faces?
I read it as some mixture of 1 and 2 (not just a competitor,
that as a competitor!) - but for an even faintly bi woman, a bit of 3 has to be possible too, yeah.
