Artist Illustrates The Difficulties Girls Deal With In 50 Honest Comics
Interview With ArtistIf you’re a girl, you've probably had a moment in your life when you thought being a boy must be so much easier. Well, I'm not sure if boys ever have any similar questions spinning in their heads, but if they do, here’s something that might make them happy they’re not one of us. Or perhaps not!
Now, if you're a girl, you're in the right place, because we'd like to introduce you to the new artist making her debut on Bored Panda. The series 'Sheya Animation' focuses on the everyday life of girls and all the dilemmas many of them might have. These relatable comics showcase situations that almost all women have faced at some point in their lives, and some younger ladies are probably still experiencing.

Both boys and girls should learn to treat one another with respect. That’s what I was taught.
Coz you were taught right Michelle not like this artist. Already on the first and I know this gonna be a misansrist hoot
Load More Replies...Strangely as a guy growing up in a traditional Christian environment, the second was common (and often taught by male role models) It was only when I grew up and hung out with more normal people that I new that the first was a thing.
Start teaching women that men are not ATMs without feelings or needs.
Teach men to not use and abuse their women and children and that in itself will attract no scrubs n no gold diggers on both sides. The law of attraction is a very real philosophy. If u don't act like a b***h u won't attract a b***h 💯 that's the law of attraction, birds of a feather flock together. U won't attract people that use others for personal gain if u urself are not using others for personal gain not a hard logic to grasp. Con artists and scammers attract one another bc the law of attraction ✨️ two idiotic childish immature parents create more idiocracy in the world n then think they are all that and a bag of Lay's potato chips n some lipstick 💄 for the so called pigs doesn't sound very respectful to our woman n little girls who turn into young woman. So keep ♻️ ING the trash instead of breaking cycles of family karma. Learn, live n grow

Yeh it's entertaining isn't it, like watching a cruse ship disaster
Load More Replies...Bored Panda reached out to the illustrator behind the ‘Sheya Animation’ series and asked some questions regarding her work. Firstly, we wanted to know what inspired the artist to start creating comics, and we learned that: “I got inspired by other cartoonists and animators, mostly, and how funny they are, and I also wanted to create my own fan base and started creating my cartoons.”
Just say it, my bio supercomputer never quits. Just say it, if others whine...not your problems
How is this meant to be gender specific. I think this applies to everyone.
No one ever told us that being an adult meant having to decide what to have for breakfast, lunch and dinner every day for the rest of your life.
The fact that the series is inspired by the author’s personal experiences makes it honest and relatable to many girls out there. As the illustrator shared with us: “My cartoon strips mainly follow a slice-of-life kind of pattern, childhood memories and day-to-day life are what my cartoons represent.”
How exactly is this supposed to illustrate the difficulties that girls deal with?? This isn't even on the same topic smh.
I was watching a YouTube video or something once, and this therapist was talking about how one of his clients comes in with this huge list of expectations that he wants in a woman. Demure, funny, cleans all the time, skinny, blonde, tall, etc etc. his therapist, having dealt with his client asking for help with finding a girlfriend and then asking his client to do the list, looks it over. After a moment, he turns the list back to the guy and points to it, asking, "So what kind of person do you think this woman will be looking for?" The guy paused and was defeated. You have to know what you bring to the table along with what you want. You don't have the amount, you're not gonna get what you're looking for.
That's an important perspective to have for everyone. We need to figure out what is truly most important to us, and accept that we might have to settle a little.
Load More Replies...Men CAN have standards...but you can't have high expectations for others when you yourself isn't "that great" either. Most people want an amazing person to be WITH, very few want TO BE an amazing person for someone else.
Load More Replies...What wonky world does this artist live in? Switch the people . I have been told I'm to short I'm 5'11" and " ewww I only date tall guys 6 foot or better" .. but what do you expect from an "edgy" bored Panda artist
But girls can have high standards that are unfair yah never see nothing about that (I'm not sexist I'm just saying)
Imagine thinking your art is edgy because you drew a woman insulting a man because she's not his type. Imagine if it was reversed and she was called out? "I need a 7'9 blonde hair blue eyes 19" d**k" "Pretty high standards for a woman considering the fact that you have the personality and smell of a stale dorito"
Forgetting she's been used more that the dildo your referring too
Load More Replies...As the artist shared with us when asked about more details about the characters featured in her comics: "The main character is a girl in her early to mid-twenties, and her parents and friends appear from time to time."
We were also wondering how the creator of the 'Sheya Animation' series comes up with ideas for her new strips. We found out: "I basically draw from my own experiences or something interesting I heard from a friend. And sometimes it's pure imagination."
Tell me you don't use tools without telling me you don't use tools (because if you did, you would know men apply this to tool sales all the time)
Load More Replies...Had someone say 'You're good' when I wasn't, and I was walking around all day like that. She was snickering and so a couple months later, I said, 'Yeah, you're good' when she had a stain XD she's not my friend anymore
Lastly, the artist told us what motivates her to create her comic series: “I like to make people laugh, and if my cartoons are making people laugh or smile, that's what my biggest influence is.”
Then the 0.0001%: “what is this ‘beauty products’ you speak of?”
Seriously though, please stop using skin whiteners. You're lovely the way you are and a lot of them contain lead or mercury!
Ummm, fake tan orange is NOT sexy!! Listen up The Donald !
meanwhile me: How much like a Jabba the Hutt cosplayer do I want to look today?
The next funeral is for the English language because you butchered that.
Ha, Ha, Ha...I should have been asleep 2 hours ago. Goodnight.
Load More Replies...I had an aunt at a family reunion tell me she didn't remember me. She had been living in Arizona since 1963 with no visits back to Ohio. I told her I was only 1 the last time she saw me, so it was okay.
I hate that. I'm in my 40's and at a recent family gathering, some distant relative who I have seen once when I was 8 was like, "Do you know who I am?"
I met a bunch of my mum's cousins two years ago. They said I was about two years old last time they saw me and we're a bit disappointed when I said I didn't remember.
I remember her stealing our drapes to make that garbage bag dress.
I vocalize wonderfully. In my head, when I'm alone.
Load More Replies...Shy ones: don't expect your partner to be able to mindread and the get upset when he doesn't.
Vocal ones: don't expect your partner to be upset just because they don't verbally share everything with you.
Load More Replies...It's sometimes easier to get forgiveness than permission, as the old adage says, but this doesn't apply to pets. Getting a pet is a decision that all parties should be 100% on board with.
I think the woman is an adult living on her own. She doesn't need permission from mom.
Load More Replies...Cute, but replacing human relationships with pets is not healthy.
As a teacher, it's important to check and see how students are doing very frequently. It's also important to know that students have anxieties and that they will not all respond the same to those check ins. That's part of why it's important to do them often with low consequences, but also why giving students reasonable autonomy, especially in high stakes situations, is important. When we act suspicious or judgemental, it also tends to play into our own hidden and sometimes subconscious biases too, so it's extra important to give students the space they need to succeed without just cutting them adrift, which again is facilitated by taking responsibility for lots of low stress check-ins during the learning process but then reasonable trust during higher stress assessments.
The teachers I had that dressed like that didn't know any answers or how to speak English. Avoid Canadian colleges.
Yeh I dint go out to clubs... I'd rather spend the same 20$ I'd get a single drink at a club AND BUY A WHOLE CASK OF DEACENT WINE
Load More Replies...People keep pointing out girls dress up for themselves. Boys have their own side with a spectrum of choices, that tend to get lumped together as well.
They say the same thing about Ferrari mechanics. They do it for the next mechanic in line.
Load More Replies...Some women actually can see more shades of red than men can, because there are two variations of the red cone (color receptor in the retina) gene and it's X linked so XY men (most male identifying people though of course not all, with trans and XXY men etc.) can only get one version of the cone where women have a modestly high possibility of getting both different versions which allows for more differentiation in the red part of the spectrum (which is actually like a third of visible light). Also, people with one cone variant can see deeper into the infra red than people with (just) the other. There's also research that people from cultures that lump colors into different groups are better able to remember colors of something if that color falls solidly in their learned groups than people from other cultures that may have that color on the boundary between groups. Since EU languages call so much "red" (translated but same category) this can be very different from other cultures.
So men would buy only one lipstick, women 2 or 3 because they are not sure which one is better. So, the cosmetic business won again considering their target.
we men see the world like windows 95, there are 16 colors. salmon is a fish, chocolate is a food, Aureolin is just a made-up word, none of these are colors
What I, a male, see: Various shades of red I couldn't care which color a girl uses, it's all red at the end of the day.
I only had very mild period cramps despite having PCOS. Instead I had constant idiopathic pain throughout my abdomen that only stopped after a total hysterectomy. It was interesting because my period actually seemed mild compared to the pain I experienced the rest of the time. 🤷♀️ Our bodies are both weird and wonderful. One person's experience does not negate any others'.
Thank you. I had a coworker once who informed me that she didn't believe PMS was real because she had never experienced it. 🙄
Load More Replies...Same tho.😂 I literally have nothing except a little discomfort and mayyybbeee some mood swings. My sister gets literally everything.
Load More Replies...LUCKY. I F*****G HATE CRAMPS. ITS LIKE “oh, you feel dysphoric? great, here’s a painful (literally) reminder that you can’t get a hysterectomy because you’re closeted and broke as s**t!”
If you are in the USA (which I sort of assume because being broke figures into your healthcare, but sorry if I am assuming too much) Planned Parenthood might be able to help you financially with some options that aren't a hysterectomy but could substantially reduce or eliminate period symptoms also without being oral birth control. Also, that sucks and I'm sorry, and I genuinely wish you the best of luck with whatever choice seems right for you.
Load More Replies...My ex was type one but I somehow could tell her [highly irregular] period was going to start tomorrow so we could get the pallet of aleve, make sure the heating pad worked, etc. Her doctor finally put her on birth control and then she made type twos jealous; light bleeding for about 2.5 days and nothing else.
If you’re type one, get yourself checked for adenomyosis, endometriosis, PCOS, PID, fibroids etc. Don’t live with it untreated for 10 or more years like a lot of us did, and most importantly: don’t accept “period pain is normal” as an answer!
And the moment type two says that, all us type one's become entities of carnage, rabidly tearing through a box of chocolates since harming others is frowned upon. 🤣
Here's some fun information for a lot of girls and women: if your period is causing you pain anywhere from the point where you can't stand up straight to the other end where you're passing out from pain, it's not normal and something needs to be checked. It's SUPPOSED to be that the pain is mild and more like when you're sore from a heavy exercise rather than someone stabbing you, punching you, and whatever else. No body says these things because there's no sex ed in schools
Do you like your looks in a mirror, then hate the picture someone takes? Try looking at the picture in the mirror.
Load More Replies...I, for one, am shooketh. I think I need a lie down and some snacks.
Load More Replies...I never understood how people could be not like this until I realized that the newest weight loss d***s alter exactly this urge (and some people don't need the d***s because they have body chemistry that basically already covers that). I mean, it sucks being much more prone to stomach upset, but it's nice to actually be able to lose weight.
My brain does well with one extreme or the other. Either I can have everything or I have nothing. I'm going with nothing to lose weight. My body, though, doesn't produce it's own potassium, and any tablets for vitamins either don't have it or don't have enough. So Sundays are my necessity days
Ironically both sexs deposit fat in mostly different places (eg around the stomach for guys and around the breasts/hips/butt for girls). Seemingly both sexs look to where they deposit fat when evaluating the other sex, and a reasonable amount of fat around a females breasts/but/etc will actually make men think they are more attractive. Though consequently each sees the other sex as having it easier in terms of avoiding weight gain.
It happened the opposite for me. I'm a lil hedgehog, I need to be comfortable first to be cute and sweet.
Everybody is sweet if sHe wants something. Otherwise, people treeat each other like c**p
Catfishing in a way. This is why your relationships keep failing. Fakery.
Technically yes John, but it's more a case of fearing to show your true self in case it's not acceptable. Which is a bit silly really, but it's what people do.
Load More Replies...There’s about 200 black hair ties hidden all over this house and my workplaces, I just hope that they’re not all in the same place plotting for world domination.
Just went to the beauty supply earlier to buy hair ties for me and my daughters for 20th time this year. They just keep disappearing.
Being bored isn't having nothing to do, it's having nothing you want to do (or having something you don't want to do keeping you from doing things you want to do). That said, as an adult being forced to be responsible for myself and others, it's not great when someone complains about having time to think when they could be actively helping me or themselves.
I have this problem with my shampoo... Like which one is better for my hair? The conditioner? The hair mask? The cream? Yeah, I buy them then got too tired to use them🤣
I've got so. many. scrunchies! Yet theres a 15 pk velvet set I desperately want
Being on my period brings out a kind of hunger that is so inexplicable it's wild. Hormones are insane
with siblings, you always have to act brave so they look up 2 u.
Every night I just peek under my bed say “f*ck off” and go to sleep! ☺️☺️☺️🫠🥴
Later in life "there are no monsters under the bed but I'll still tuck my feet in"
Or it comes right back. "heyyyy you thought I was gone? nah'
Coz you didn't clean it and cover it up after.... pro tip PIMPLE PATCHES ARE GOATED
Load More Replies...Me with my bf. I sometimes get insecure because I can imagine life without him and other girls "can't live without" their bfs, but then I remember love is a choice. I want him.
Honestly, wanting someone seems much more attractive than being dependent on someone. Waking up every day and choosing to put in the hard work to be with someone means a lot more than waking up every day and feeling like you have to make someone understand the dire consequences of a possible choice to not stay, and wanting someone to live their life with you is much more selfless love than wanting someone to live their life for you.

I have a power strip hung on the backside of my nightstand. Which created ten power outlets, four of which are accessible by oversized plugs. I replaced it a couple months ago to one that also has two USB A, and two USB C outlets. Almost every power strip can be hung on a wall or behind a night stand, or desk, makes them easier to deal with.

nah, me and my lil sibs have a good relationship, I give her food and she gives me food
I have this with mascara. The lashes of the right eye behave when meeting mascara while the left refuses to play nice.
Mines the eyebrows. Right brow goes on perfectly. Left takes 4 tries and still looks nothing like the right.
Load More Replies...Have you considered that it might be personal preference instead of social pressure? I shave my pits because having hairy pits grosses me out, not because '"society" tells me to. EDIT: grammar
Load More Replies...Shaving pits helps reduce the stink. No place for the bacterial colonies and biofilms to grow. Then the antiperspirant can get on the skin where the sweat glands are for better dryness. Dryer pits =dry bacteria =dead bacteria.
Aesthetic relativism is the philosophical view that the judgement of beauty is relative to different individuals and/or cultures and that there are no universal criteria of beauty.
That's a real pseudo intellectual way to say beauty is in the eye of the beholder (well eyes cos beholder have like 6 or 9 of em)
Load More Replies...Inside India: normal diet. Outside: unbelievable amounts of curry that can be smelled everywhere
Yes, it's hormonal acne and it happens generally right before your period begins
Load More Replies...I learned as a freshman in a generally sophomore chemistry class to shut up about how much I did (or didn't) study before an exam. Mind you, I took notes and did the homework, and it was still serious work, but sometimes you don't have to openly talk about how you feel going into an assessment.
That's when you do the awkward admiration of the ceiling, floor, or literally anything else you can look at
That's what I did when I watched the scene from Fear on the roller-coaster with my dad 😨😚
Load More Replies...could it be worst, you watch a good movie with your parents when bam a sex scene come on
you mean wide leg? wide leg pants don't even look good on the models...sorry
There is a difference between wide leg (wide from thigh to toe) and flared (wide from knee to toe). But they are both comfy AF so bring them on! :p
Load More Replies...Seems someone who keeps commenting is obsessed with the idea of hermaphroditism and using ridicule to mask the personal shame of this infatuation
They’ve probably *just* discovered futa hentai and want to share their excitement with the world but don’t know how. :p
Load More Replies...Cream liner is the easiest. I swear I wouldn't get any on if it weren't for that stuff. It also comes in really vibrant colors, I have silver and it makes my eyes look huge.
Load More Replies...those are an expensive short-cut, Instead, help your jeans earn those holes.
Yeh it's funny how people think my ruined work pants are fashionable
Load More Replies...Noticing a trend where some see a 'no' response as a negotiating tactic, while others see it as a conclusion to a discussion. Both genders have a history of falling on both sides, in my direct experience. So, in the image above, does she really mean no, or does she just want something more significant than the flower?
In that case she is playing games and that guy can do without that red flag.
Load More Replies...Unable to communicate. Red flag. Guy is better off without her.
I have always been the person on the left, but the person on the right has my profound respect. I admire people who are authentic to themselves, no matter what that authenticity looks like. Every person deserves to be able to be who they are without shame or scorn.
