If something is “the” then it denotes it is
the only one or the most notable of such.
“A” would denote it is simply one among
others (possibly many). So I can see where
that might be confusing to a non-native
English speaker here. But in this instance,
there are words implied that are not outright
said. To be entirely grammatically-correct,
it would have to be something more like,
“Walky has sex for the first time, and for his
first time of having sex, it’s surprisingly not
embarassing nor aggressively terrible.”
It’s similar to if someone says, “Close
the door.” The subject of the sentence
is “You”. “You” is understood to be there
at the start of the sentence even though
it’s not spelled out. Grammatically, it should
be, “You, close the door.” But people don’t
really write OR say it that way.
Similarly, if someone says, “Sal is
prettier.” grammatically that should be
“Sal is prettier than she is.” It’s a
comparison, but from the context one could
identify who the other person being spoken of
was in a conversation. “Amber is pretty.”
“Sal is prettier.” The “than she is” is understood
to be there.
“A first time” in this instance is being used
to refer to Walkyhaving sex for the first time,
rather than one instance of sex. That conflicts
with the general usage of “a” and “the, but
in this context, what is meant is “HIS first time”.
f it were “for THE first time” that would
imply that Walky had sex previous times
that were embarassingly awkward and
aggressively terrible, rather than that “for (his)
first time (of having sex)” it was not those
things. “A first time” should really be “his”,
but for a native English speaker, it’s easier
to tell from the context who is being spoken of
even if “a” is being used instead of “his”.
It’s actually pretty confusing. Even more so
when you actually look at the parts involved
and try to figure out why we can understand it
just fine when the statement itself is
grammatically incorrect and shouldn’t really
work by the rules of our language.
My first time was quite enjoyable. The second guy I was with was also a virgin, so while it was his first it was still enjoyable.
Maybe it’s not common, but just by myself I’ve made two first-timers have a great time. And remember, Dorothy is not a virgin in WPaS. I think that by itself helps a lot.
Public notice: From now on, when discussing WPaS, that abbreviation must always be pronounced “whoopass”, whether speaking aloud or just seeing the abbreviation in print and hearing it in your head.
Just because someone acts like a oblivious dork doesn’t mean they weren’t good in bed. And you know, he was probably really patient which is a huge plus.
The second guy I mentioned earlier? Being good in bed was his only plus.
Well, I don’t quite know if we are allowed to discuss WPAS, but I have to say you are doing all three a big disservice! What happened between Walky and Dorothy was very sweet, not at all the clearing of a low bar. Walky was inexperienced, but as usual for him his awkwardness had a charming side. Dorothy was a magnificent teacher, and her subtle guidance more than made up for Walky’s inexperience. The chemistry between them would have been sufficient to get the A. Walky’s youthful stamina would have nudged the score into A+ territory. The A+++ can be attributed to Dorothy’s confidence and willingness to take charge of her pleasure and Walky’s.That makes me think that Dorothy and Dan learned some sweet things together back in the day! It is difficult to imagine, as this is the sort of thing that Danny could Dan very easily…but Dorothy looks like someone who has had good sex before and knows how to make it happen again. (Although, in fairness, her expression here makes me think that this is the best she’s ever had! )
Oh of course. And it wouldn’t have been very titilating or sold very well of it had been realistic, but damn I wish my first time had been half as good as that one :p
It was very accurate to my first time experience. She was not a virgin, I was, she helped me out and was supportive, and we banged all crazy style. This is not to say I didn’t get better, but we certainly had a mutually pleasurable experience, so I didn’t think it was unrealistic at all.
Similar experience for me actually. I was, she wasn’t. She let me try a few things that were fun, and honestly, I think I get my appreciation of chubby girls from her. But I was overly nervous, and thought too much about it, so I did t get to finish.
Mike went by and was so proud of this exploitation of roommates that he asked her out on the spot. Sierra and Mike are now going on a date next weekend.
Meanwhile, Joe is watching from a distance and cursing the fact that he had to leave Sierra to go do this go-where-he’s-needed thing in another part of the wing.
Believe it or not, people have managed to do so. In the Hellenistic era, there were Jewish men who underwent a procedure to restore, as it were, their foreskins so they could take part in gymnasia athletics naked, alongside their non-Jewish neighbours, without standing out.
I wonder if that’s going to be a boner killer (or whatever the female equivalent is called) for those who read Walky Performs A Sex? That while those two were doing it, the serious Amber, Danny and Blaine stuff was going on?
“Two thumbs up! And several fingers too!”
“Thanks, sweetie.”
“Fine holiday fun for the whole family!”
“Uh, great!”
“Tomatometer 100%! And what tomatoes!”
“Ooookay, I think you need to stop now”
“If you only see one vagina this year…”
Good idea: Jokingly making a yelp post after have sex with your girlfriend.
Bad idea: Actually making a yelp post after having sex with your girlfriend.
That being said, I do know a guy who had this ready to go after sleeping with his girlfriend for the first time. Complete with a victory dance, I am told.
…I think it’s just a manner of expression indicating that the young Mr. Walkerton was very pleased by the evening’s activities (and judging by appearances, so was Ms. Keener).
Yeah, that’s the problem with this rating system. To be reliable you have to have a decent sample size to compare ratings. Which probably doesn’t apply to most of the characters here. I mean, we’re not talking about your mom here.
Most of the time, I would be all DAMN YOU WILLIS about not giving us more Amber and Danny right now, but really, this is another of my favorite couples, and they are happy and stuff, so really, it can be excused.
Ehh, wouldn’t have thought she was on the pills, hence the condom.
About taking morning after pills, I would expect Dorothy to spend days thinking about whether it’s the right choice, have several pointless monologues about it, then decide she’s not taking it/run out of time.
I just want to see her fall. My hatred is limitless.
Dorothy is smart and responsible. She likes him, but hasn’t known him that long and has no guarantees about his sexual history. Believe me, a condom is required for STDs even if you’re doubling up on the no pregnancy protection.
Because you know better than that. Plus all the people loving the characters compensates you for the few that dislike others outside of Danny or Blaine and dare to voice their opinion. At least that’s my guess.
@Shadlyn: If it wasn’t blatantly obvious for Dorothy that Walky is untouched then I don’t even know. But yeah better be safe, I can understand, but this wasn’t my first thought when she initiated the use of condoms.
@PokeyPuppy: I don’t see a problem. Noone ever stated that my wishes for Dorothy to have a sad life is in any way healthy. Clearly I am an insane fuck.
Hatred of characters is allowed – I’m uncomfortable with all the wishes for Danny to die, but eh, lots of people dislike him.
Wanting to see a character have a long, drawn-out pregnancy crisis seems crueler and pretty unhealthy to me, though. Sort of like “I want Danny to die!” is not as creepy as if someone said, “I want to watch Danny be butchered over the course of a year in real time! Yeah, that’s what he deserves!” One is voicing aggressive dislike, one seems pathological.
Even die is much, like seriously . . . but with Danny it’s all an exaggerated joke.
@Intie so what exactly about Dorothy is it you don’t like? I don’t see an unlikeable trait in her entire character at all. . . Or is it that you just don’t have a lot of sex because you’re a afraid of having something like that happen to you? Is it that you don’t approve of healthy consequence free sex being portrayed in media because of some kind of conservative mindset you have?
Yes I am totally against the portrayal of sex of any kind in any media, think of the children!!1 I also have blue balls that don’t exist, but yeah. I am so thristy and jealous of all the sex she has.
Seriously though. I just dislike every bit of Dorothy, her goals in life, her, dreams, her attitude, her way of speech, how she handled her breakup with Danny, her entire personality (and I don’t like her looks but that’s not a very strong reason). She’s just irritating to me.
Nah I’m joking, it’s really just because I’m jealous of her sex life. Obviously.
I’m with you on Dorothy being annoying. Dorothy has always been one of my less favorite characters in DoA, for pretty much all those reasons. How she treated Danny, her attitude, how she treats other people in general. I’ve been waiting for Dorothy to have a life lesson in this comic since the beginning.
Not that I dislike her enough to want her condom to break and subject her to an unwanted pregnancy that’s bound to end in sorrow and pain. But you know. Like a parking ticket or something. Bad grade on a test. I totally wish her a D-.
Eh… Walky is a virgin, and Dorothy has only had one partner, who was a virgin at the time. Both are clean. Dotty is also an athirst and a feminist. She would just go down to the pharmacy, or the local PP, and get a morning after pill. No harm, no foul.
Wait, what does being an atheist and a feminist have to do with getting the morning after pill? It’s not an abortion pill or anything. If someone’s going to use BC they’d hopefully also be pro-morning after pill…
Ahhh, true true. Sorry, it’s hard to tell if someone makes those statements nowadays because -they themselves- believe it or are just using it as an example.
I don’t even know what percentage of people think the morning after pill is a quick abortion pill, actually.
Why do you say the morning after pill isn’t an abortion pill? The intentional killing of a fetus between the time sperm contacts the egg and birth is an abortion. What do you think the morning after pill does? Kill the zygote which is the first stage of the fetus.
You can think it’s morally okay to take it, that’s a separate argument, but it IS definitely a chemical abortion.
The morning after pill prevents ovulation only. It was originally thought that it could also prevent implantation of the zygote but that’s been disproven in several studies.
Sadly, that it is an abortion pill is one of those zombie lies. Fox news and Catholic bishops keep repeating it and can not be convinced that they might be wrong. Doctors and scientists know that it prevents conception and has no impact on implantation at all.
The primary mechanism of action of levonorgestrel as a progestogen-only emergency contraceptive pill is to prevent fertilization by inhibition of ovulation. (though I hate citing Wikipedia).
So anyone want to share actual things they’ve said post-sex? The mind goes to a weird place sometimes, and you might say things like (true stuff from me:)
“Fifty points to Gryffindor.”
“Holy Toledo, baby.”
“[anything in a Batman or Vincent Price voice, both of which my girlfriend finds unaccountably pleasant]”
My wife and I are partial to Penny and Aggie references, both ones that actually have been used in-comic for girl/girl sex (and which rapidly became fandom memes), and more idiosyncratic ones.
Storytelling-wise, don’t knock the pillow talk. Your characters are tired, vulnerable, and have displayed as much trust in one another as two people can. Pillow talk is like a gold mine in terms of character development and fleshing people out.
no it does not! I think most people lose it in their early 20s. that is when I and a good amount of my friends took the plunge to some degree or another! some earlier, some after!
Nah, dude I turned 20 last week and still haven’t performed the sex. Some people, including my self, have a hard time finding someone that I trust AND like enough in that kind of way to do it. There are also those, also like myself, who simply aren’t really considered… uh, “good potential performers”, and simply get left alone.
Anyway, it all depends on the person and how they were raised and such.
Don’t think that is blushing; what with the perspiration I’d say they were still flushed from the physical exertion. The two of them probably burned enough calories that they can head over to McDonald’s and share a super-sized McNuggets value meal.
I have mixed feelings right now. I find this a touching moment but I also feel I missed out on some definite and important character development in an important part of both Dorothy and Walkys lives, first sexual encounter and all, because it only exists in the slipshine comic. Im not about to ask it to be free or anything since its part of Willis’s income. But I do hope that the emotional or personal notes that were covered in the slipshine comic will be covered again here. Then again I could be entirely wrong and it was just mindless sex, certainly happens enough in real life.
Yeah I finally caved and read it and if you wanna call anything character development, it’s stapling that Dorothy is er..”driven”; she knows what she wants and how to get it.
I wish my first time was like that. Both virgins no one wanted to be on top and it kept falling out.
Yeah thats kinda what I was concerned about, not so much plot advancement as development of character. From the sounds of it though it was just them going at it with Dorothy being the driving force so nothing we couldnt of already have infered from earlier scenes so its not an issue.
Come on, let’s sex again
Like we did last minute
Yeah, let’s sex again
Like we did just now
Do you remember when
we were really cummin’
Yeah, let’s sex again
Sexin’ time is here
Wow, I expected people to abuse the hell out of the lyrics from “I just had sex” by Lonely Island, but nobody has touched on it yet. Good job, commenters.

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnngggg!!!!
two weeks of doing it, that’s right! remember this shit is on comic book time!
Even so, we know this is his first time, so I find this hard to believe
We do? How?
He intially is pretty ‘girls have cooties’, plus both he and Dorothy have specifically mentioned that he’s a virgin.
http://www.dumbingofage.com/2011/comic/book-1/06-yesterday-was-thursday/frequency/
http://www.dumbingofage.com/2012/comic/book-2/04-time-keeps-on-slippin/touch-2/
Well on a guess, any male that’s still stuck on “girls are icky” probably hasn’t gotten laid.
err… straight male anyway (I assume)
It’s also explicitly spelled out in WPAS’s full title: http://www.dumbingofage.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/promotion01.png
I was wondering whether that’s “And, for someone’s first time, it was …” or “And, unlike every time until now, it was …” =)
Maybe if it read “THE first time” instead of “A first time.” Otherwise I’m not sure that’s what English means!
I actually did misread “A” as “The” at first.
Huh. That must be one of those things that would be obvious *before* the fact to somebody who is a native speaker.
If something is “the” then it denotes it is
the only one or the most notable of such.
“A” would denote it is simply one among
others (possibly many). So I can see where
that might be confusing to a non-native
English speaker here. But in this instance,
there are words implied that are not outright
said. To be entirely grammatically-correct,

I second this motion.
Thirded.
Yeah, but her times were with Danny
DANNY!!!
Just because someone acts like a oblivious dork doesn’t mean they weren’t good in bed. And you know, he was probably really patient which is a huge plus.
The second guy I mentioned earlier? Being good in bed was his only plus.
Twice.
Drat. I can’t think of a way to spin this into “Kill Danny!”
“Danny set Dorothy’s bar so low that awkward inexperienced virgin(?) Walky could clear it.”
Well, I don’t quite know if we are allowed to discuss WPAS, but I have to say you are doing all three a big disservice! What happened between Walky and Dorothy was very sweet, not at all the clearing of a low bar. Walky was inexperienced, but as usual for him his awkwardness had a charming side.

(Although, in fairness, her expression here makes me think that this is the best she’s ever had! )
Right, right, not saying otherwise, I was just looking for a way that Ridureyu could spin this into “Kill Danny”.
Dot has prune lips for a lower lip. That will look nasty when she runs for Congress at 25, let alone higher office 20 years after that.
And it was hos first time too.
His.
No no… It’s.. it’s just fine… It’s beautiful…
Walky is naturally gifted
He always gets a good grade without too much studying.
Lol Joyce would know. XD
Adorkable and ridiculous. And totally what I needed after rereading the full Amber arc.
what, no nipple tag?
No sideboob tag either
Both are acceptable.
Maybe because there is not much there?
I agree, we cannot condone only 3/4ths of a nipple!
uh huh. Happy people. That’s nice.
Where Amber and Danny?
right next to them.
That took a disturbing turn.
You’re welcome
But they did sex again. Possibly three times depending on how you count it.
“Mammals are weird”
They only had two Amazi-condoms. Tho I suppose if you count a BJ as a “sex” then you’re right.
I will say tho, my first time wasn’t nearly that good.
Nobody’s first time is terribly good. She’s biting her lip to keep from laughing because he looks so proud of himself.
To me it comes off more like she’s satisfied. And if you’ve read the NSFW comic, she enjoyed herself plenty.
Oh of course. And it wouldn’t have been very titilating or sold very well of it had been realistic, but damn I wish my first time had been half as good as that one :p
Me too! I wish that my first time will have been–WAS! WAS as good as this. *coughs*
It was very accurate to my first time experience. She was not a virgin, I was, she helped me out and was supportive, and we banged all crazy style. This is not to say I didn’t get better, but we certainly had a mutually pleasurable experience, so I didn’t think it was unrealistic at all.
Similar experience for me actually. I was, she wasn’t. She let me try a few things that were fun, and honestly, I think I get my appreciation of chubby girls from her. But I was overly nervous, and thought too much about it, so I did t get to finish.
The second time however…
holy wow I didn’t think the bead-style eyes could get that big
Mammals are a W word.
WIIGII!
WOO?
Whoopie?
Warm blooded
Your Dale gravitar makes that seem so sinister.
Damnit Walky. I don’t care about you and your healthy relationship and perfect life. I wanna get back to the crazy people!
But isn’t Sierra nearby?
She’s out in the hall, charging a quarter a minute for people to listen to the door with a drinking glass.
She made a buck twenty five off this!
A whole five minutes for his first time? Walky is talented. Or did she start charging during foreplay?
She bought him some endurance. The fun way.
Choking him?
Mike went by and was so proud of this exploitation of roommates that he asked her out on the spot. Sierra and Mike are now going on a date next weekend.
Meanwhile, Joe is watching from a distance and cursing the fact that he had to leave Sierra to go do this go-where-he’s-needed thing in another part of the wing.
Good point. I’d rather see Sierra than any other character.
Has Mike had an arc yet?
Not yet
…I demand more Mike! 😀
She’s doing a sex with Joe right now.
I wonder… Does Sierra put sockson to do a sex? It does feel better with socks on after all.

Walky Performs a Sex 2: Bigger Longer and Uncut
How do you uncircumcise a cock?
COME WITH ME I’LL SHOW YOU
Believe it or not, people have managed to do so. In the Hellenistic era, there were Jewish men who underwent a procedure to restore, as it were, their foreskins so they could take part in gymnasia athletics naked, alongside their non-Jewish neighbours, without standing out.
I think people still have that done surgically sometimes, although I suspect named gymnathletics ain’t got much to do wif it nae more.
“Standing out”, snerk.
Ever read Frankenstein? Yeah, like that. Lots of needle work.
According to Google: A LOT OF WAYS. Including prosthetic’s!
It happens. Sometimes in artificial ways and sometimes in very rare cases, it actually grows back. I am one such case.

Yeah, those shoulder-freckles are pretty damn steamy.
Walky preformed a sex.
fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffftypo
Preformed sex is cheaper, but not as good as sex from scratch.
I’m trying to think of how you would preform a sex.
I don’t know.

Meh, I’d give it a solid A-
AN A-?!!?
It might as well be a B+!!!!
How much is that in stars? Our fearless artist is mixing his rating systems! 😀
It’s like 4.9 stars which is nice but not what you wanted.
Good stuff.
Dorothy looks pleased, apparently Walky is a competent lover even without experience.
Paying good attention to your partner’s responses will take you a long way, regardless of experience.
We’re too late, Walky has already performed a sex!
BURN THE UNCLEAN
er. you know. I mean. you know what I mean, right?
Sheets?
among other things
(ok I don’t know where I’m going with this)
“Premarital Hanky-Panky!”
PHP is the best type… no strings attached, no legal binding agreements and other hangups just get in the way.
I prefer java myself.
“A+++?”
Dotty gets impossibly high grades, EVEN IN SECKS.
“Two thumbs up! And several fingers too!”
“Thanks, sweetie.”
“Fine holiday fun for the whole family!”
“Uh, great!”
“Tomatometer 100%! And what tomatoes!”
“Ooookay, I think you need to stop now”
“If you only see one vagina this year…”
You gotta stop, Doctor. I imagined that last line delivered in Don LaFontaine’s voice and had a Pepsi Syndrome incident with my keyboard.
“And when I say up, you know up what, don’t you?”
I….I dont need to comment on this today
Pointless second panel, GO!
He could have at least smooched her. 😛
That is the Beat Panel sir.
Nah, man, the beat panels happened like four strips ago.

Time for another good idea/bad idea.
Good idea: Jokingly making a yelp post after have sex with your girlfriend.
Bad idea: Actually making a yelp post after having sex with your girlfriend.
That being said, I do know a guy who had this ready to go after sleeping with his girlfriend for the first time. Complete with a victory dance, I am told.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEdrG8h5cNA
Can’t quite tell. Is he rating Dorothy (even if he has no-one to compare her to) or sex in general?
…I think it’s just a manner of expression indicating that the young Mr. Walkerton was very pleased by the evening’s activities (and judging by appearances, so was Ms. Keener).
At this point, probably both.
I’ll give it a solid B-. I’m just not convinced Dorothy’s an A+ at sex. Not with all the Billies around.
So, you’re grading sexual performance on a curve? 🙂
+1. Made me lol.
Yeah, that’s the problem with this rating system. To be reliable you have to have a decent sample size to compare ratings. Which probably doesn’t apply to most of the characters here. I mean, we’re not talking about your mom here.
This is a job for Joe, although Joe seems to grade on a 1-10 system rather than a letter grade.
Should be able to approximate. Just add a decimal point, Assume a plus is like a .7 and a minus is like a .3
Why are we so convinced that Billie is such a sex goddess, her impressive curves aside?
Yeah, all-purpose lust does not a sex goddess make.
Plus Dorothy’s all smart, seems like she’d be be super aware and alive while Le Doin’ It.
thank you, barf ninjason, for your eternal words of wisdom
smart ladies are totally the best 🙂
She was also, until recently, a raging alcoholic, and shit-faced drunkenness does not do good things for the sexytimes.
Yotomoe must be the Soviet bloc judge.
(Olympics figure skating reference)
From 2002 no less! We need a fresh judging scandal this year.
So is this taken directly from WPAS? Or is it new?
New
It’s new. (It would have been the other way around, anyway. I didn’t draw WPAS until this arc was complete.)
So Walky and Dorothy were gonna get it on anyway as part of the arc and WPaS was, shall we say, just a more detailed enhancement of the sexytimes?
Yes.
Most of the time, I would be all DAMN YOU WILLIS about not giving us more Amber and Danny right now, but really, this is another of my favorite couples, and they are happy and stuff, so really, it can be excused.
So, uhh, “Darn you, Willis, I guess?”
“Slightly inconvenience you, Willis” just doesn’t have the same ring to it
I like it
Also, I love Dorothy’s post-coital rictus in this strip. Orgasms will do that to a body, y’all.
Hey, Walky, I thought you said you had no use for girls! So you do find them useful after all!
did… did my comment just get deleted?
What did you say?
“Pointless second panel, GO!” It was just a joke but was gone in like a second!
Scroll up, you’ll find it. It’s there.
It’s back! Weird. I’m positive it was gone
I blame the worldwide communist conspiracy.
It was. For awhile the only comment that showed up was your commenting asking if your comment had been erased. Very weird.
I wanted the condom to break god damnit
Dorothy is also on birth control, so despite your abominable wishes, she would have been fine. She plays it smart.
That’s expected for an intelligent person like Dorothy.
But it’s like .001% or something! Significant numbers!
Ehh, wouldn’t have thought she was on the pills, hence the condom.
About taking morning after pills, I would expect Dorothy to spend days thinking about whether it’s the right choice, have several pointless monologues about it, then decide she’s not taking it/run out of time.
I just want to see her fall. My hatred is limitless.
Dorothy is smart and responsible. She likes him, but hasn’t known him that long and has no guarantees about his sexual history. Believe me, a condom is required for STDs even if you’re doubling up on the no pregnancy protection.
Sometimes I wonder why certain people haven’t been thrown into the spam folder.
Because you know better than that. Plus all the people loving the characters compensates you for the few that dislike others outside of Danny or Blaine and dare to voice their opinion. At least that’s my guess.
@Shadlyn: If it wasn’t blatantly obvious for Dorothy that Walky is untouched then I don’t even know. But yeah better be safe, I can understand, but this wasn’t my first thought when she initiated the use of condoms.
@PokeyPuppy: I don’t see a problem. Noone ever stated that my wishes for Dorothy to have a sad life is in any way healthy. Clearly I am an insane fuck.
Hatred of characters is allowed – I’m uncomfortable with all the wishes for Danny to die, but eh, lots of people dislike him.
Wanting to see a character have a long, drawn-out pregnancy crisis seems crueler and pretty unhealthy to me, though. Sort of like “I want Danny to die!” is not as creepy as if someone said, “I want to watch Danny be butchered over the course of a year in real time! Yeah, that’s what he deserves!” One is voicing aggressive dislike, one seems pathological.
Even die is much, like seriously . . . but with Danny it’s all an exaggerated joke.
@Intie so what exactly about Dorothy is it you don’t like? I don’t see an unlikeable trait in her entire character at all. . . Or is it that you just don’t have a lot of sex because you’re a afraid of having something like that happen to you? Is it that you don’t approve of healthy consequence free sex being portrayed in media because of some kind of conservative mindset you have?
Maybe a studious blonde broke your heart? WE MAY NEVER KNOW
Yes I am totally against the portrayal of sex of any kind in any media, think of the children!!1 I also have blue balls that don’t exist, but yeah. I am so thristy and jealous of all the sex she has.
Seriously though. I just dislike every bit of Dorothy, her goals in life, her, dreams, her attitude, her way of speech, how she handled her breakup with Danny, her entire personality (and I don’t like her looks but that’s not a very strong reason). She’s just irritating to me.
Nah I’m joking, it’s really just because I’m jealous of her sex life. Obviously.
I’m with you on Dorothy being annoying. Dorothy has always been one of my less favorite characters in DoA, for pretty much all those reasons. How she treated Danny, her attitude, how she treats other people in general. I’ve been waiting for Dorothy to have a life lesson in this comic since the beginning.
Not that I dislike her enough to want her condom to break and subject her to an unwanted pregnancy that’s bound to end in sorrow and pain. But you know. Like a parking ticket or something. Bad grade on a test. I totally wish her a D-.
Why?
Eh… Walky is a virgin, and Dorothy has only had one partner, who was a virgin at the time. Both are clean. Dotty is also an athirst and a feminist. She would just go down to the pharmacy, or the local PP, and get a morning after pill. No harm, no foul.
Wait, what does being an atheist and a feminist have to do with getting the morning after pill? It’s not an abortion pill or anything. If someone’s going to use BC they’d hopefully also be pro-morning after pill…
I agree it isn’t an abortion pill, but plenty of conservatives and Evangelical types *cough cough Joyce* do think it is one.
Ahhh, true true. Sorry, it’s hard to tell if someone makes those statements nowadays because -they themselves- believe it or are just using it as an example.
I don’t even know what percentage of people think the morning after pill is a quick abortion pill, actually.
Why do you say the morning after pill isn’t an abortion pill? The intentional killing of a fetus between the time sperm contacts the egg and birth is an abortion. What do you think the morning after pill does? Kill the zygote which is the first stage of the fetus.
You can think it’s morally okay to take it, that’s a separate argument, but it IS definitely a chemical abortion.
The morning after pill prevents ovulation only. It was originally thought that it could also prevent implantation of the zygote but that’s been disproven in several studies.
Sadly, that it is an abortion pill is one of those zombie lies. Fox news and Catholic bishops keep repeating it and can not be convinced that they might be wrong. Doctors and scientists know that it prevents conception and has no impact on implantation at all.
The primary mechanism of action of levonorgestrel as a progestogen-only emergency contraceptive pill is to prevent fertilization by inhibition of ovulation. (though I hate citing Wikipedia).
The morning-after pill *prevents* the sperm from joining with the egg in the first place.
I can just imagine the possible follow up comics if that happened:
Dorothy Performs A Abortion
Dorothy Has A Babby
Walky Pays A Child Support
Dorothy Performs A Mental Breakdown
Dorothy Performs A Postpartum Depression
Joyce Performs A Godmother
Dina: I’d give it a C+ at best *slinks back into the bathroom to watch Jurassic Park*
“I would know, I’ve seen a LOT of reenactments of dinosaur sex.”
Dino sex is probably a lot like bird sex, and impressive it ain’t!
Except that it involves dinosaurs. Which makes it impressive.
All birds are technically dinosaurs, ergo all bird sex is also dino sex.
“C+, not enough dinosaur teeth and it lasted more than the few seconds necessary”
Thank You. I needed something upbeat after reading about Michael Morones on Epbot.
Awww! They are so cute! And happy. Dorothy looks as if she agrees with the A+++.
Oh my how far we’ve come.
http://www.dumbingofage.com/2012/comic/book-2/04-time-keeps-on-slippin/awol/
THAT WAS NOT A PLAY ON WORDS. Get your mind out of the gutter.
(Realized it the moment I posted it.)
Uhh huh.
Hey! If I’m going to make a sex joke it will be far more tasteless and stupid than that, thank you very much!
You put my mind in the gutter by pointing it out. 😛
…
…
“You think the wallpaper’s gonna smell?”
G’NIGHT EVERYBODY!
Heck, it wasn’t that long ago we were at this point: http://www.dumbingofage.com/2010/comic/book-1/02-uphill-from-here/sight/
(well, in comic time. IRL… holy shit over three years! It doesn’t seem like that long!)
Good thing he got past that part. Making that bug-eyed little alien face during sex would have just been real awkward.
Well, now they’ve done it.
[generic sexual pun about Dorothy getting good grades]
So anyone want to share actual things they’ve said post-sex? The mind goes to a weird place sometimes, and you might say things like (true stuff from me:)
“Fifty points to Gryffindor.”
“Holy Toledo, baby.”
“[anything in a Batman or Vincent Price voice, both of which my girlfriend finds unaccountably pleasant]”
My wife and I are partial to Penny and Aggie references, both ones that actually have been used in-comic for girl/girl sex (and which rapidly became fandom memes), and more idiosyncratic ones.
So how often does the “mated like tigers” line come up? (I trust you’ve the taste not to mention “responding moistly with your hoo-hoo”.)
“Ow! You’re on my hair!”
“I don’t bend that way!”
…oh, wait. POST-sex comments? never mind.
Storytelling-wise, don’t knock the pillow talk. Your characters are tired, vulnerable, and have displayed as much trust in one another as two people can. Pillow talk is like a gold mine in terms of character development and fleshing people out.
A countdown to coordinate the dismount to prevent too much of a mess being made. “Here’s a kleenex. Whoops, sorry, dripped a little, there.”
*high five*
I totally plan to do that sometime
hoo boy
Oh man now you’ve got the mega deep cooties.
Dem freckles.
“Meanwhile, in another part of town…..”
Wait! What’s that sizzling sound? Ah, it be Dorothy and Walky! ;D
Dorothy’s nostrils look unusually large, and perhaps stretched out in the first two panels.
I’m scared. –worried about what might have happened.
….
i am pretty sure i have never drawn a single nostril in all of dumbing of age
Wait! Just looked at the nostril of my own gravitar! I guess that’s normal.
(unless someone slipped my gravitar a roofie… Maybe I should be even more scared.)
That isn’t a nostril, dude, that’s the shadow beneath the nose.
haha but the comic gets a lot more interesting if you start looking for THE GREAT MONONOSTRIL, much air capacity, great breathes!
Dorothy’s what??
jeeeeez good find!
Now all I see is weird little tube noses.
Looks like Blaine wan’t the only one banged senseless by a girl with short hair and glasses and I’ll just see myself out
baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahaahahahahahahaha
*slow clap*
So much stuff going on I almost forgot about what shenanigans Joyce was up to
Holy crap you’re right. And didn’t this strip have a Billie and a Ruth in it somewhere too?
You think that’s something, how long will it take to address THIS plot again? http://www.dumbingofage.com/2011/comic/book-1/06-yesterday-was-thursday/twerp/
so any day now we’ll be seeing billie performs a sex?
That’s something I’d actually pay for!
Much sex.
Such climax.
MUST…RESIST….URGE…TO….GET…INTO….SEX…BASED….PUNOFF…
Hey, being 17 and a virgin… does that make me rare?
no it does not! I think most people lose it in their early 20s. that is when I and a good amount of my friends took the plunge to some degree or another! some earlier, some after!
Case in point: I was 22 when I lost my v card.
Have some data.

Them Icelanders be horny.
It’s cold over there, no surprise really.
I’m 28 and a virgin. Largely by choice.
Nah, dude I turned 20 last week and still haven’t performed the sex. Some people, including my self, have a hard time finding someone that I trust AND like enough in that kind of way to do it. There are also those, also like myself, who simply aren’t really considered… uh, “good potential performers”, and simply get left alone.
Anyway, it all depends on the person and how they were raised and such.
And now for something completely different.
I have literally been Walky here, saying “A+, would sex again.” I just.
I love that.
I really am addicted to comic drawings of people blushing. Feed my Jones Willis. Feed it.
Don’t think that is blushing; what with the perspiration I’d say they were still flushed from the physical exertion. The two of them probably burned enough calories that they can head over to McDonald’s and share a super-sized McNuggets value meal.
If Dorothy can convince Walky to share his McNuggets, we’ll know it’s love.
(“Share his McNuggets” sounds kind of disturbingly euphemistic in this context.)
hopefully you guys will see a doctor about your mysterious up-side downing genitalia before you do
Is it just me, or do their eyes make a 666 in the first two panels? YOUR MOTHER WAS RIGHT YOU (ARE) DAMN(ED), WILLIS!
Oh go away walky
I have mixed feelings right now. I find this a touching moment but I also feel I missed out on some definite and important character development in an important part of both Dorothy and Walkys lives, first sexual encounter and all, because it only exists in the slipshine comic. Im not about to ask it to be free or anything since its part of Willis’s income. But I do hope that the emotional or personal notes that were covered in the slipshine comic will be covered again here. Then again I could be entirely wrong and it was just mindless sex, certainly happens enough in real life.
This was written before the WPAS was created so you’re likely not missing anything but wangs and boobies.
I do hope so, id hate to have missed anything.
Since when does porn ever contain story development =<
There are exceptions to the rule. WPaS follows it however.
Yeah I finally caved and read it and if you wanna call anything character development, it’s stapling that Dorothy is er..”driven”; she knows what she wants and how to get it.
I wish my first time was like that. Both virgins no one wanted to be on top and it kept falling out.
Yeah thats kinda what I was concerned about, not so much plot advancement as development of character. From the sounds of it though it was just them going at it with Dorothy being the driving force so nothing we couldnt of already have infered from earlier scenes so its not an issue.
Instead of package, boxers contained bobcat.
Would not sex again.
This is why Mike is not allowed near condom factories.
Also, why they went to Sierra and Dorothy’s room.
of course I decide to check on dumbing of age for the first time ever in public today
that man is gonna need some blood…
Ironically enough, this comic gave me blue balls since I want to see more Danny, Amber/Amazi-Girl and Death of Blaine, heh.
Even with that NSFW banner on the left, I actually forgot about these two.
Wow, this is so cute. And Dorothy seems to have had fun too. So kudos to Walky, quite an accomplishment for his first time.
Come on, let’s sex again
Like we did last minute
Yeah, let’s sex again
Like we did just now
Do you remember when
we were really cummin’
Yeah, let’s sex again
Sexin’ time is here
well, that was an interesting segue
And now, for something completely different…
Wow, I expected people to abuse the hell out of the lyrics from “I just had sex” by Lonely Island, but nobody has touched on it yet. Good job, commenters.
Congrats on the sex!
Post coital bliss personified. Dorothy was a patient teacher and Walky was a charging stallion. No wonder they’re grinning.
Aww yiss. Cute shoulder freckles! <3
Odd, I thought Dorothy’s boobs would be bigger.
Wait a damn minute!!
Did Dorothy just give Walky an eBay comment?!!
And then Walky woke up
