While the article is stupid, Nice Guys are garbage.
Before someone moans and groans, look up what Nice Guys are. It's different than a man acting as a gentleman. It's a guy who's too scared to ask a chick out, so he becomes her friend, tries uber hard to be a friend, and then flips the frick out when he doesn't earn his way into a relationship.
Dr. Nerdlove explains it well.

"Forced yourself into her space" sure meant a lot more than holding a door for someone when I was younger.

I agree with the comic because there are some dudes that actually act that way.

So the lesson is how to be a Southern gentleman. Hold the door open for people (man or woman) because it's the polite thing to do.

So men only hold the door open for women because they want to "romantically pursue" them?

I will now be on the lookout for my microaggressions.

That being said, atleast she's assuming the guys in these comics are just ignorant, not full blown rapists-in-waiting.
3rd Wave Feminism is odd.

Hold the phone, did they just make the sports guy black in a cartoon about microaggressions?
Posted on 9/14/16 at 10:19 am to chinhoyang
plot twist hes wearing a fedora so hes probably gay and has now interest in romantically pursuing them

A cartoon is no good when it takes 24 panes to get the point across.

FFS. Goofus and Gallant used to do it with two panels and two sentences.

I hold the door open for anyone that's walking behind me if it's going to close on them if I allow it to.
But that's because I'm not an a-hole...

It's because it went from a movement for wanting equal opportunity to looking for things to be offended by and trying to instill guilt in men for pretty much anything.

Personally, I find any sort of power movement due to gender, race, or religion (or lackthereof) to be odd. I don't see myself as a white heterosexual male, I see myself as Josh. I hate that our society has become this weird place where you have to label yourself and act in a certain way because of what color, gender, sexual preference, religion, and so on.
To be fair, I wasn't alive when Jim Crow and women were legit treated as second hand citizens, so I can understand the older groups being a lot more salty.
