    Could I please order, as shown in frame 2#, the patriarchy dismantling kit as an accessory, if that comes in a handbag or even in a handbasket all the better.

    I do rush in to ineffectively counter my consumerist greed in buying things to say I am sorry Paddy isn’t here, moon doggie.

    Great “Yeah, right.” look from Emily.

    From what I can gather from your work the passing on is in good hands.

    In fact you probably qualify for the assessment that is usually given as an insult but should be taken as a compliment – “Ya big girl”.

    And don’t feel too bad that Emily wears a Ramones t-shirt not because her dad did but because Jennifer Aniston did.

    And @Shoe, love the idea of the kit coming in a handbag or handbasket.

    Paddy Marlton???
    Surely not…..Could the sainted mother of FDOTM share my name?

    Bless the dear departed soul and all praise to her wonderful heirs.
    P.S. Frame two is a masterpiece of teenage angst….Worthy of Goya!

    Dear FD, firstly I think YOU should take up teaching Studies in Sexism classes in schools. Secondly, I also want a DIY patriarchy dismatling kit – please let us know if they are available from the crikey online shop.

    Sadly, my Dismantling Patriarchy Kit instructions are Ikea cartoons, with Korean notes: “탭이 있는 슬롯 중 B”

    There is so much to love about this, especially frame 2…. The eyes seem to follow you around the ‘toon…

    FD: Frame two is a masterpiece. At that same age I looked a lot like that. But had bands on my teeth and pimples to add to the witches brew which was a child. A lonely child existing in a permanently depressed childhood.
