I Illustrate The Everyday Problems Of Being A Woman
532Kviews
Hi you! I’m Prudence and I’m a 26 year old Belgian illustrator who goes by the name Planet Prudence online. You might have seen me around drawing my life on the interwebs.
Many people found bits of themselves in my work and I went from hopping in between jobs struggling with crippling depression to being the author of my own book, illustrating and making comics on a daily basis (still with crippling depression though because that thing still haunts me like crazy).
But okay… well, nowadays I try to manage a webshop, serious jobs, interviews AND my life as an artist trying to make ends meet but loving what I do til the moon and back, so sit back for a whole lot more of those relatable comics of a struggling millennial!

Very true. Even us skinny girls can have a skin flap that folds over when lying or sitting. :)
In 10 years she'll be able to draw the same cartoon but change the ages to 27 and 35. As someone who has more than a few decades under my belt, I can say that there isn't a whole lot of difference between the 17 you and the 25 you. Every decade that passes you'll be amazed at just how young you were the decade before.
Omg! She captured the stupid chunks of hair that wonât lay down on the side of my forehead so perfectly!
Thatâs right! If you donât wanna shave your legs, you donât have to. Beautiful either way. Anyone who says differently needs to examine their priorities and be more critical of things that matter, not hairy legs. Seriously.
Have totally done this when pushing my boyfriend in a wheelchair, made him hold the crutches out so they were like fins
Being in love is always awesome regardless of age. Not being loved back sucks, regardless of age.
I think everyone can relate to a few of these lol ... great work , love it .
Of course, because they simply show some sort of common understanding of how society should see people. Not the first time somebody created drawings about this. All looks quite familiar...
Love these- theme may be familiar but you have made it original with your details. It's captured my life spot on!
thank you so much!! :D
Love these. As a gay dude i can relate on most of these. I had a good laugh and also helped me feel less alone on a lot of things.

"Problems as a Woman" ... snore. Everyone has problems. If a woman writes about them we all have to be supporting and sympathetic, if you don't you're waging 'war on women'. But if a man writes about his problems he's a baby and needs to stop whining. Everyone has problems.
But they are good sketches :)
:)
Nobody forced you to read.
There are too much "problems as a man" and even "problems as a person" that are also only related to man. Women have been invisibilized for so much time that we really apreciate any art, thought or action including women. And if it bores you, think about are women bored until highest level about men... men stuff (for men and made by men) is sadly even now the biggest piece of the cake for anything.
Not neccessarily. Some celebrities are iconic for openly talking about their problems. âĽ
And among Brits people like you, Gerry, are called cunts. :)

You are quite right. And among men we call them "pussies".

After reading this, it just makes her seem like an isolated person who has given up on herself and reality.
Paul, get a sense of humour. đ
