Two-panel layout. In the main comic, a red-haired man named Ted and a brown-haired man sit facing each other against a purple background. Ted launches into a misogynist rant: 'Women are things! They're here for our amusement, until they get older than 25, at which-' The brown-haired man, hand raised to his chin in disgust, cuts him off: 'Stop it, Ted. Just stop.' A caption beneath reads: 'There's nothing brave about preaching to the choir.' In the votey (aftercomic), drawn in black-and-white, the same brown-haired man now confides to another person whose back faces us: 'My girlfriend just dumped me.' The other person replies, 'Yeah, me too.' The joke implies that both men's enlightened or unenlightened attitudes left them equally single.
