Yes, you're EXACTLY the reason why everyone ELSE should get vaccinated (well, the other reason - the first being their own health). If we could remove a virus from the general population, then neither you nor your daughter would NEED the vaccine because all her partners would have had it & not carry it to her!
Thanks about the Jeph Jacques thing. It's getting a little frustrating that he just won't admit "ok, that was a little ambiguous, sorry, but I'll clear it up in the next strip". It's not always easy to condense a concept to a limited medium, like comics or Twitter, so sometimes something we've written gets misunderstood.
However, I stand by my position that "I thought you liked being polyamorous?" "It's fun, but I want to settle down someday" is more likely to be received as a statement about polyamory being only about casual sex & a phase, and less likely to be read as a single character deciding that she is not polyamorous anymore, even though polyamory itself is a valid relationship style that includes long-term, committed relationships :-)
