In fact, he only demands he stop (and rather quickly, I might add) when Coop calls him 'princess', further blurring whether it was the fondling or the choice of insulting nickname that really set him off. The comic holds several panels as Coop gropes and fondles him, and Andy's reaction is to pretty much take it. It's VERY hard to say Andy feels victimized here, given his behavior and reactions. I'd say his decision to slap showed he wanted to express frustration and insult over defend himself from victimization.īecause that's the key with molestation: it's about feeling victimized by someone. Moreover, Andy doesn't come off as the type of flouncy gay that would slap over punch in a situation of actual molestation: he's nerdy, but not feminine.
And some of that seems to be coming from a place of frustration, considering that the comic clearly shows they have a complex background of some sort. Hell, he doesn't SLUG Coop for groping on him, he slaps him. We also don't know the full extent of their background, and Andy doesn't seem to feel victimized as much as bothered.
