Artist’s 30 Hilarious Comics Every Tired Woman Can Deeply Relate To
Our world is on full display.
How have you been tackling the issue of sexism in today’s world? Lily O’Farrell, the artist behind @vulgadrawings on Instagram, illustrates comics focused on feminism, dating, internet culture, and navigating everyday life. The cartoonist from London has since garnered a huge following online with her drawings about the daily annoyances of womanhood. In her new book, Kyle Theory, Lily addresses pressing issues, from the patriarchy with the men in women’s lives to racism and dealing with trolls.
And despite hateful criticisms from online bullies, Lily, a graduate of Sociology from the University of Manchester, has never shied away from portraying the pressures from society that are often pushed on women. While her comics are equally for people who share the same perspective of ‘not all men’ arguments and period mood swings, Lily’s newest [compiled below] can be found deeply relatable by every frustrated woman in the world. Have a look!
