As Eisu says, ad revenue. And considering that this comic's PG-13-ness has been preserved by steering wheels and lens flare in the past, I doubt that it'll be much imperilled by another shower scene.

(I also love how a comic with rampant non-marital hanky-panky, characters trying to sex each other into submission, fantasised threesomes, ample sideboob, and promiscuous teenage boys discovering their bisexual impulses, can happily remain PG-13, but one glimpse of n*ppl* would endanger the very souls of 14-year-old kids. But that's moral guardianship for you.)

Exhibit A
Exhibit B (and the following pages, too)
....plus I distinctly remember a shower scene with a lot of convenient mist and/or foam, but I can't find it at the moment (also not sure which universe [Ma3 or EC] it was in, which doesn't make the finding easier)
There were a lot of ones like that back when EC was color. Like the first appearence of the Coven. Or this one of Ace. And my favorite, Tiffy.

There are more after the strip went B&W, as well in MC and DC, but I'm gonna stop nkw since I'm too lazy to look up all those URLs.

Her model training has definitely burned off a lot of her body modesty. On the other hand, do note that DiDi is the world's most intimidating woman.

Eisu is in Malaysia, but where in it, of that, I don't know.

This strip feels like Sandra was manipulated yet it's not true. It's like she manipulated herself or something like that. Weird. 8-}

I have the feeling she knows exactly where she's going ("Right! Like I'm that curious"), but she has to know, as she says.
I can understand. I've consciously done some stupid things too, for what seemed good reasons (at least at the time).

Depends - if Cammi knew her well enough AND that there's no other immediate way for Sandra to "politely" satisfy her curiosity, it could count as manipulation - it doesn't require a Heath Robinson flowchart! (I'm not sure she does know her that well though.)

Of course, the simpler option would be for Sandra to briefly hide Cammi's glasses ;).

Even if Sandra hasn't twigged that Cammi has bisexual tendencies - which she probably hasn't - she must have realised by now that Cammi is capable of doing virtually anything just for the hell of it. She's also in the same house as Tatiana, who's likely to take advantage of anything that lets her taunt Sandra. So her first instinct, not to get into the shower, was sound.

But - Sandra has her own healthy streak of devilment, though it usually comes out when she's drunk, and she evidently suffers from standard primate curiosity. And now she's been given a mystery to which no one seems to know the answer, and just one chance ever to resolve it. And she's cracked under the strain.

But I don't think that Cammi is really "manipulating" her. Cammi doesn't seem to be much of a schemer. She just does whatever the hell seems fun at the moment and sees what happens.

You know good and well that characters like Cammi always have spares, no matter the circumstances. Heck, she probably has some on her right now, taped to her breasts. :p

I can't help but wonder if we had a counter for every forum comment asking why there's no nudity in the non Ma3 strips what number we'd be up to by now?
