Sid the Sexist

Sid the Sexist (real name Sidney Aloysius Smutt) is a character from the English comic book ''Viz'', first appearing in issue 9 in October 1982.〔Donald (2004), 377〕 The strip was created and mostly drawn by Simon Donald〔"(Chris Donald - Comic rebel with a cause )". bbc.co.uk, June 2005. Retrieved 15 March 2014〕 until he left the magazine in 2003, when Paul Palmer took over as artist.
According to Donald, "Sid is a man who is unable to communicate with women. He is desperate to impress them, but is totally lacking in social skills. He thinks he must use foul and offensive chat-up lines on women to impress his friends, but can't see why they don't impress the girls. He tries to soften the blow of his outrageous behaviour with nice, friendly Geordie words. Sid thinks that a few "hinnys" and "pets" thrown liberally into his disgusting conversation will win the hearts of women. He usually ends up in hospital having painful procedures to remove things women have shoved where the sun doesn't shine."〔Donald, Simon. "
In his autobiography 'Him off the Viz' Simon recalls that the inspiration for Sid was a friend of his (Graham Lines) who wanted to ask out another friend in their social circle (Sandra Peachey, known as 'Sandy'). Graham asked The Donald brothers for dating advise - despite their lack of romantic experience and his being several years older. Bolstered by their chat and several beers, he declared that he was going to get himself some 'totty' and the idea for Sid was born.
Graham and Sandra did in fact date and also appeared in separate Viz photo strip stories (including 'Prisoner of Love', featured in the first hardback album 'The Big Hard One').

==Character ==

Sid and his mates Baz, Bob and Joe, who are all Geordies,〔 spend much of their time hanging around at the pub, with Sid bragging to them continually about his apparent sexual prowess. Sid "spectacularly fail() in the pursuit to which he has single-mindedly committed himself: having sex." He is a coarse and unsophisticated 30-year-old who still lives with his mother, a fact which often poses as a stumbling block to any potential liaison, and is unable or unwilling to use any kind of decorum when approaching women, instead using outrageously crude lines that never succeed in achieving anything beyond rejection or a violent response from the woman in question.〔 In one of his most famous examples from an early issue of ''Viz'', Sid approaches a woman with; "How, pet, my name's Sid. D'ya fancy a fuck?" When answered with a definite "No!", he replies "Well, would you mind lying down while I have one?"
The recurrent format of Sid's adventures is that he believes he has found a new approach to women that will secure him a sexual conquest at long last ('This time... this time! It HAS to be this time!!'). His attempts at trying out these questionable methods invariably end up with his being humiliated, often painfully.〔Sabin, Roger. "Adult Comics". Routledg, 2002. ISBN 1-1345-5799-X〕 He is physically very unfit, has a prominent beer belly, drinks heavily, always has a cigarette in his mouth and is cowardly despite his macho pretensions, always coming off the worse in a fight. He is also in denial: despite the misfortunes that befall him he continues to display a blind faith in his crude attitude towards women and, when rejected, often tries to pass the blame for his failures on to the woman in question or somebody else. His exploits have also unintentionally led to several homosexual encounters, which ironically reveal his homophobia or, perhaps, latent homosexuality.
Sid seems under-educated and knows little of the world outside Newcastle. It is even claimed at one point that he is unable to read. It is not clear what his job is, if indeed he has one at all, although he has been seen doing occasional odd jobs as part of his various schemes to pick up women. In another strip he attempts to pick up a woman by telling her that he works as 'an assistant to a well-established provider of goods to the younger end of the market'; despite being exposed as an elf in Santa's grotto in a local department store by his derisive mates, he still attempts to keep up the pretence that his job brings him success with women--'Y'see lasses fancy summat () a bit special'. Although Sid's three companions do sometimes succeed with women, they are much like him in their yobbish, misogynistic, homophobic and racist outlook, never marry or expand their stagnant social circle.
