So they do put estrogen in the water as the artist made an advertizement for estrogen free water? Putting estrogen in the water… wouldn't that counter ovulation blocking drugs? And who would put estrogen in the water supply? That would have serious consequences for not only the male human population but also the environment. I really have trouble trying go understand what this author wants to say.

Is she making fun of male domestic abuse victims?

A pamphlet speaking about cat attacks and saying that cats, like girlfriends, can never be trusted… so she really is not holding back anymore. She is basically saying that murderous predators (remember, that is what she herself introduced here) are in the eyes of these men the same as girls. Also, this seems to suggests differences in cat behavior. And what was with the prior cycle talking?

So... since she bleeds now… does that mean she will turn into a big cat right away? The earlier panels suggested so.

The hormones block ovulation? the lining of the uterus stops and never sheds…so they sterilize the girls? Does the author realize that?
I guess not since she shows men burning tampons and being misoginistic ("who bleeds for 7 days and doesn't die" and "no more blood" signs)
Considering the sort of symbolism used, I wonder if not she is afraid of period blood and female sexuality.

Btw. why are grown women fine?

They say menstruation must end because of the cats, the comic states that the gov. stated it was for their own good, they put hormones like progresterone and estrogen in the water supply and we have protestors against it with "love conquers hate" signs…. if people suddenly turn into violent monsters, that is not hate to be scared it is a national emergency.

At the onset of menstruation teen girls transform into big cats that attack everything on sight… so this is a werewolf story. Seriously, what she presents here is obviously a metaphor but one used for male sexual awakening and not female ones. Becoming muscular, aggressive and hairy monsters is something claimed to be happening to boys, not girls.

Oh my god, the comic is really not subtle here. The restrained girls have the following things on their shirts:
A female Symbole with cat ears, "Girls can do anything", "Fight like a girl" and "feminist AF"
The writer really isn't subtle here, at all. As a matter of fact, with such lack of subtlety it is usually the case in my experience that the writers are pretty much the same as what they fight against.

Why does every girl's room here have cat pictures and other cat related things?

Also, what cycle? Why wait for another cycle?
