On a disturbingly regular basis, someone will write a book or do a study about the differences between men and women.

There have even been studies specifically geared towards realizing and proving that these differences really do exist.

I remember once hearing on the news about the U.S. government having just concluded some study (at some outrageous cost to taxpayers) which purported to prove that there really were differences between men and women.

Naturally I was shocked to hear that. I had never unscientifically realized that these differences did really exist. I had never had access to a lab where I could put men and women into petri dishes and observe them as they grew under scientific conditions without any of the arbitrary or random input unscientifically imposed by the unscientific reality of nature and it's whimsical ways. We all know that life itself can't be considered a scientific pursuit unless it takes place in a lab and is overseen by a man in a white coat.

sidenote: Women can wear white coats but can only be assistants to the man in a white coat.

So...

CC599 RULES & SCIENTIFIC METHODS:

1. Comics must contain someone (or something), telling or reading about something they've just realized is different between males and females.

2. The difference can be physical or psychological.

3. The difference can be discovered (or observed), by a child or adult, animal or insect, rock or plant, or any combo of available features on stripcreator.

That's it!

Judging will take place prior to or on the 10th day from now.

Okay, the winner is four_legged_tripod for his entry
'Snow Wonder Continued'.

The comic had a number of features that all went together just about perfectly.

The features were...

1) Clever use of the stripcreator artwork

2) Christmas related although not required or suggested

3) It had a word gag and a sight gag, which when combined completed the comic.

It reminded me a lot of one of ragu4u's comics where Santa Claus is telling Rudolph something like "That's what you get for trying to open presents early", and Rudolph is standing there with his back legs and ass cut off by getting caught in the door. They both had these similarities which I enjoyed quite a bit. My apologies to you ragu if my memory failed to remember your comic correctly.

I liked all the entries because there's something about other people interpreting one of your ideas.

I appreciate all of those entries without specifying in greater detail, but I do think it's important to remember that pandeist has promised to 'bugger' one of you from the last contest... to death. It'll be quite a chore, but I assume he's up to it!

So four_legged_tripod, off you go with CC600.
