About

"You And Me" Parodies are a series of custom-captioned comics based on an illustrated story from the webcomic series Questionable Content by Jeph Jacques. The parodies typically depict alternate outcomes of a situation wherein a male character is confronted with his transgender girlfriend's body in a time of intimacy.

Origin

In 2003, artist Jeph Jacques launched the webcomic series "Questionable Content," which follows the life of protagonist Marten Reed.^[1] In 2012, the pre-operative transgender woman Claire Augustus was added to the cast, who subsequently became Reed's girlfriend in the comic.^[2] On February 5th, 2015, Jacques published a page in which Augustus undresses herself in front of Reed, presumably exposing her male genitalia (shown below).

Spread

The same day the page was published, it was posted in a thread on 4chan's /co/^[4] (comics) board. Users proceeded to make edited versions of the comic in a similar fashion to the CADbortion Ctrl+Alt+Del exploitable.

On February 6th, the original comic was posted to the /r/questionablecontent^[7] subreddit. On February 13th, Redditor FredtheFailLord submitted a collection of edits to the /r/4chan^[6] subreddit, where it gained over 3,200 votes (93% upvoted) and 320 comments. In the coming days, two other comic galleries were submitted to /r/4chan.^[5][9] On February 20th, a thread was submitted to the /co/ 4chan board containing other comics by Reed about transgender relationships.
