Back to B.C. by Johnny Hart for May 07, 2018

Sadly in this day and age shes probably spark out through drink…..

So how does the cute chick wind up as a free agent?

How did this cliche ever begin? The usual presumptuous guess based on western 19th and early 20th century idea that primitive people were most certainly dumb brutes. “We deduce through our vast superiority that they hit each with clubs a lot, and grunted, and most assuredly said ’Ook ook.” Of course, the characters in B.C. are none too bright anyway. And we haven’t even met Grog yet.

I suspect this was funny 60 years ago because it’s so ridiculous. Whatever the stereotypes, I find it hard to believe that anyone thought it was actually done.

Never saw this one before, and I have a large collection of the old paperbacks. Was it kept out on purpose?

Talk about non-pc! Funny then, not so much now……….we women are empowered now (whatever the heck that means)!

So much for the test drive.

A much funnier strip from around this time period had the Fat Broad asking one of the cavemen if he believed in gender equality. After he says yes, she whacks HIM on the head and drags HIM by the hair! In the last panel ,he wonders what he said to offend her.

And he wonders why he never gets a second date with any of the ladies.
