You’re not going to salvage this one. Neither of the characters are being good, and we both know the guy is assumed to be the bigger asshole in this comic. Regardless of what realities exist, most people are going to read what is presented as misogynistic.
The truth is, they’re both failing to communicate, so anyone using this as a sexist cudgel is only revealing their own bias. Because, again, they both suck in this comic. There are no heroes here, so anyone claiming otherwise is… ignorant at best.

Silence helps no one.
