      Very much can depend on the underwear.

      For all we know, it could have an image of Adam and Eve printed on… but if it was dinosaur-print I imagine Dina would be ALLLLLLL over that! ;D

    Am I the only one who finds Dina’s face especially the smile in panel 5 a little creepy? Also, I feel that Becky is starting to pass the ethical threshold in regard to pressuring subjects into continuing with an experiment if they feel uncomfortable.

      PS. I am not saying Dina is a creep asaurus rex, just that if you’re going to use scientific experiment to justify your sexy times, you gotta deal with the highly stringent rules of the scientific community’s ethic guidelines. I mean come on Dina you didn’t even get this experiment passed by the university’s ethics board or have a control group – your a bad scientist.

        Paleontology and kisses sounds more fun to me too. Of course, maybe this is all an elaborate plot to get Becky to turn around with her butt in the air so Dina can steal her wallet out of the back pocket. Even she only gets 20 bucks that’s like two whole weeks of cereal.

        Sure but they have a precedent! A good precedent! this scenario here is more likely to end in awkwardness than any kind of euphoria, whereas they both liked kissing the one time they did it on screen.

        Very right! The steps look a little different for everyone, and Dina needs the most data possible before she attempts anything on a higher level!

        Her passion for science in everything she does is absolutely EXHILARATING! 🤩

      I would like to remind everyone that chapter titles almost always make a different kind of sense looking back on them than trying to predict them. The current chapter title seems to be a prime example (unless something is pulled out at the last minute, it would seem to be the scientific sort of trial, not some legal issue Sarah is involved in as many predicted)

    I wonder if Dina’s general inability to read emotions and social situations is causing trouble here. Like I don’t think she’s the sort of person to push someone past their limits if she knows what those limits are. Becky has told her that she wants to do this, so Dina takes her at her word. In Dina’s mind, all is well because this is what Becky wanted and continues to say she wants.

      I agree, this is absolutely reading as a “Dina has some form of Autism” moment. She hasn’t seemed to pick up on Becky’s nonverbal “I’m conflicted but I’m pushing myself to do it for you anyway” yet.

      It’s not intentional at all. If Becky just flat-out said “we’re going too fast, I’m not having fun anymore” then I bet she’d stop pushing. But since Becky didn’t put that into words, it went right over her head.

      Speaking from experience, it fucking sucks when you figure out you’re the one unintentionally making a social situation worse, once it finally clicks.

        I may be misreading but I’m also reading this as Becky genuinely being conflicted about what SHE wants and a part of her wanting to do this, for herself, not just for Dina, but she has so much internalized shame about sexythings that it’s making her feel uncomfortable. And perhaps a part of her also worries where the line is about what is sinful in God’s eyes.

        Since her aversion to sex seems less “I emotionally don’t feel ready for this and don’t want it” and more “I do want this but feel it would be wrong so am trying to resist temptation.”

          I think both of these things can be true. Becky can be excited but terrified, and Dina can completely miss that second part.

        That sounds like what’s going on here to me. Dina doesn’t seem like the type to intentionally push people to do things they’re uncomfortable doing, especially not someone she cares about like Becky.

    And HERE comes the no-win scenario. Glad to see I was spot on. Becky’s got herself in such a shitty catch-22.

    Although yeah Dina seems as if she’s being a little pushy, obviously without meaning to be, just not reading signals properly…which is understandable because this is a weird situation. Better communication from them both would be good so this doesn’t get uncomfortable. But I imagine that despite Becky’s weird mixed signals, the next comic is going to involve some form of Dina reminding Becky she doesn’t have to do anything she doesn’t want to, since Dina has been quite clear on that and I imagine she will continue to be clear on it, since she cares an awful lot in general about being clear in her communication and avoiding misunderstandings.

      It definitely seems the way Dina would handle it if she manages to pick up on how awkward the situation is getting. That being said, hopefully it will encourage Becky to examine herself a little bit as well to understand what she is also feeling. I don’t doubt their feeling for EACHOTHER but she has to be true to HERSELF as well.

    On one hand, this is a darkly comedic showing of how Becky isn’t just scared of sex, she’s scared of how much she wants it and thinks it’s for the best that she be pressured into it.

    On the other hand, a sexually healthy Becky would still involve getting bossed around by Dina, because Becky is a bottom.

    Now that I think about it, so’s Carla when she talked about how she wanted Malaya to bully and step on her, Ruth is well-documented at this point too. The heck’s in the water there at IU that turns all the queer redheads into subs?

    Becky’s rejected everything about her cult, that’s kinda the problem. More specifically, it rejected her but Joyce protected her, meaning Becky is right and her cult is wrong.

    The way she put it to Dina, she’s already changed so much and defied her entire life. Losing her virginity isn’t just a big deal to her, it’s something that means Old Becky is gone forever, and Old Becky is the one who had alive parents, a Bestie in Christ, and a sense of stability.

    Becky rejected everything about her upbringing except the important part, which is God’s unending love for her that makes him perform miracles. She still has a use for sexual purity, and so she holds onto it while, in a bit of cognitive dissonance, hoping that Dina will go wild and pressure her into sex so this way Becky can have that thing she wants and still tell herself she stayed pure and good.

    Becky is as messed up by her death cult as Joyce, and when she finally cracks we’re going to be just as surprised.

    Aces represent! I am on the sex repulsed side of the scale so for it has been a long process of desensitization. I find Dina’s enthusiasm, even if not really sexual, very endearing.

    But I also get the sense that this “science” is two sided. Like Dina pointing out to Becky that being horny doesn’t mean you will attack people. I wonder if Dina isn’t just exploring if she can get pants euphoria from a stimuli, but also getting Becky to find her own limits of what she is willing to do.

    I worry that Dina’s emotional distance to the situation might cause her to inadvertently push Becky too far.

If you do a close read not only of the Bible but the archeology, it starts to look like the Israelites, & all but a couple of Judean kings, worshipped a goddess for pretty much the whole First Temple era. The implications of this are... far ranging-- & her name might not be what we've believed.
