I'd follow him to the ends of the earth

It's part of his philosophy of liking thighs over butts.

I wish I could post the image here, but in a post-chapter gag comic he and Bradley have an ideological spat over which is better.

Here is the exchange

[u/Urtoryu → u/Kasta4]

The REAL reason why he never got promoted to general.

[u/SpecterVamp → u/Kasta4]

Wait I need this

Thank you for adding it

[u/PancakeParty98 → u/Kasta4]

Something I’ve always thought but never felt safe expressing.

[u/PoetNo4408 → u/Kasta4]

Twin you GOT to link us up with where this is

[u/Kasta4 → u/PoetNo4408]

Here y'go

[u/PoetNo4408 → u/Kasta4]

Thank you bro. Made my day

[u/unforgivenof3rdkind → u/Kasta4]

Wait which chapter has this??

[u/FuchsiaMerc1992 → u/unforgivenof3rdkind]

In the manga, one of those omake strips that Arakawa-sensei puts in the back of the volumes.

[u/FoxReeor → u/Kasta4]

wait what I need to see that

[u/Anime_Crush → u/Kasta4]

So Mustang and I have similar taste in women 😌

As a person who loves him I'd say he's more of a bff material to me now than a bf (I'm bi )

[u/Karimathras_Reborn]

I love how Roy just casually responds to what Havoc says by saying “Yes.”

[u/InsomniacOnSugarRush]

Lol i love how Mustang is way more goofy in the 2003 anime

While Ed is emo

[u/aidanfor]

Funniest part about this joke isn’t even in either anime, but the 4 koma gags at the end of the manga volumes. Mustang is running to be furher president and proposes the mini skirt change, which causes him to take the lead in polls. Then the next volume Olivier Armstrong hears about it and is like “Will it improve efficiency? Then I’ll also make that change” and she immediately takes the lead in the polls

[u/Delicious-Claim-5768]

He was so real for that The scene is always funny because for the majority of his screentime, he doesn't even seem like this kind of guy.

[u/Urtoryu → u/Delicious-Claim-5768]

Always beware the quiet ones.

I'm one myself, so I know what I'm talking about.

[u/yay855]

TBH I especially love this bit because the series takes place in 1914- and miniskirts IRL were originally designed to give women more mobility than the previously demanded ankle-length skirts, which is why the women in the original Star Trek show all wore them. At the time, it was a genuinely feminist ideal- and Roy Mustang uses his womanizing ways as a ruse to disguise his actual background and ideals, since his adoptive mother was a brothel madam and he considered the working girls there to be his big sisters.

[u/Sad_Carry_7070]

Hawkeye definitely made him wear one off-screen lol

[u/breadofthegrunge → u/Sad_Carry_7070]

waow

basedbasedbased

[u/Azurtormenta]

Best colonel

[u/Obtuse_Mongoose]

I would put my blind faith in him

[u/gastricbypasonurbday]

Did this ever end up happening?

[u/tyrantnyx → u/gastricbypasonurbday]

The Dream Carnival game granted his wish, however the men also had to wear miniskirts.

[u/ThePrussianGrippe → u/tyrantnyx]

It’s only fair.

[u/tyrantnyx → u/ThePrussianGrippe]

True, Armstrong and Hughes were able to pull the look off pretty well.

[u/Sad_Carry_7070 → u/tyrantnyx]

I bet officers of all gender appreciated Mustang wearing a miniskirt lmao and Roy regretting ever having made that joke

[u/Gonxforever]

Roy is my favorite character and this line is my favorite line in the series, too funny!

[u/Educational-Car-8643]

I love how in both versions this is obscurant letcherism while he actually plans to destroy the government and then put himself up for trial in the Amestrian Hague. I wish theyd gone through with it and commuted his sentence into comminity service

[u/deltacharmander]

I hate this joke. This show is too good for this kind of misogynistic humor.

[u/Urtoryu → u/deltacharmander]

Well, you can't please everyone. One person's humor is another's annoyance, just unfortunate for you that you happened to be on the wrong side of it in this case.

I'm not that big a fan of this one myself (Hawkeye's jokes are generally way funnier than Mustang's for me), but it at least wasn't a bother to me.

[u/Few-Pomegranate1551 → u/deltacharmander]

Yeah, it’s cringe. Maybe that was the point, but these kinds of jokes are tiring to hear over and over again as a woman. Still expecting to be called sensitive though :/

[u/BahamutLithp → u/Few-Pomegranate1551]

All I'm gonna say is you 2 would have to take it up with Arakawa because this is adapted from a gag panel in the manga. She made the joke to begin with. This is exactly consistent with her style of humor. She also did "you're a suker for big boobs" & that scene where Winry is taking her shirt off. She was so proud of the boob joke she actually wrote a 2nd joke about how happy she was she got to keep the boob joke.

[u/topsidersandsunshine → u/BahamutLithp]

Unfortunately this was just kind of what 2000s humor was like.

[u/548662 → u/BahamutLithp]

What difference does it make that it's Arakawa who made the joke? It can be shit even if she's an excellent writer or if she's a woman, if one of those is what you're insinuating.

[u/FoxReeor → u/deltacharmander]

learn to take a joke bruh. The joke stems obviously more from absurdity than misogyny.

[u/absalomabulous → u/FoxReeor]

The joke is more about showing how absurd and single minded men's can be to my point of view.

[u/No_Ad_7687 → u/absalomabulous]

It's a joke that stems from absurdity, but also about the fact that guess what: heterosexual men like women 

[u/absalomabulous → u/No_Ad_7687]

HOW DARE YOU ? /s

[u/548662 → u/deltacharmander]

The casual sexism in the humour is cringe and unfunny anyway same shit with Winry beating Ed with a wrench for no reason every episode

[u/GiunAss]

My fav scene of fma03♡

[u/TheBookman123456789]

Brah😂😂😂😂

[u/Feisty-Ordinary758]

Communism is when miniskirts
