This one deserves a G-rated “Arlo” tag. She’s suggesting that since he’s left-handed, he should move so that she can be held (and/or caressed) by his more “dextrous” digits.
Apparently, the gentleman is no gentleman, but the lady is a lady.
It’s Peter Arno, so Kilby is almost certainly correct. But as they’re sitting now, he can put his right arm around her and leave his more skilled hand for freer action. So it is possible she’s trying to coll him off a little, too.
As a lefty myself, I have to question this comic assuming Kilby’s interpretation is correct. It’s a right handed world, so left handers become pretty adept at using both hands fairly equally.
MarkM: I don’t think the comic really made sense anyway. These skills here seem ones that most men would be adept with either hand, and as DemetriosX says, you can make a case for the other hand being the more important one anyway.
This is the sort of comic that works OK if you just take a quick look, and get the basic intent, but that you’re not supposed to think about in too much detail (CTWOKIYYJTAQLAGTBIBTYNSTTAITMD).
It’s an invitation instead of no invitation. Mechanics can be settled later.
Yeah, I think it’s simply an attempt at a flirtatious way to say, “Please feel free to get a little more inappropriate with your hands, if you like.”
