A four-panel SMBC comic. A small child asks his mother, "Mom, why do women have bigger bottoms than men?" She answers deadpan, "To stop predators," then explains: "When attacked, women shed their excess buttocks, increasing their speed while distracting predators," and "Later, they consume extra calories to regenerate their defense system." The child, now at a laptop, asks, "Why don't men have that?" The mother replies, "Men are expendable. That's evolution." In the final panel, shown as silhouettes, the child notes, "It's been a while since you've had a predator attack, huh," and the mother retorts, "Boys are expendable too." Votey (aftercomic): a close-up of an anxious, sweating face as the mother threatens, "I will sit on you, child. Sit on you until you die."
