i havent rlly seen any positivity posts for this before but bisexuals, ur allowed to have a unique relationship with ur gender due to ur sexuality. being bisexual doesnt make u any less gnc, and if ur bisexuality influences ur gender/presentation/pronouns i love u!!
following that, there’s also nothing wrong with liking some gendered terms and not others!
it’s okay to use she/her pronouns but not want to be called a girl! it’s okay to use terms like brother or father for yourself but not go by he/him! it’s okay to be fine with “sister” but not “daughter!” it’s okay to use a title like “mr” but not want to be called a man! it’s okay to be a woman and not go by she/her!
it’s okay to use language that seems to contradict itself! language and gender have a complicated relationship but you’re the boss! bend it to your will!

Once again, thank you everyone for reading, enjoying, and sharing this comic. Not just sharing in the sense of re-posting this comic, (which you should totally do) but also sharing your stories with me, letting my know how my comics have touched you. It means so much to me. Love ya! Stay tuned for more comics! <3
It gives me tremendous joy to see people still reading this comic, and especially when they get something out of it.
Over the years I have faced many ups and downs, just like everyone else. Sometimes it really gets to me how mean people can be to each other. How mean I can be to myself. But for all the Level 1 Trans Fighters out there please know with acceptance, mindfulness, and self compassion I did in fact find my balance. Not a fast process. Basically a complete lifestyle change. Sometimes I lose that balance, sure. But when I choose to present my authentic identity? I’m objectively drop dead gorgeous. Here are a hand full of my looks. You’ll notice none of them are 100% masculine or feminine. Peace be with you. Thank you for reading. Thank you for being you. -J
You deserve to feel comfortable, so don’t push yourself to go at a faster pace. It’ll hurt you more.
Reblogging both for stellar comic and wonderful mustache
always reblog! I love this comic, so very much. *offers all the kudos* Thank you for this, it continues to help a lot. You look amazing in those lipstick shades, by the way.
Dark lipstick and chainmail is such a look, love it.

reminder that if you’re questioning your gender, “what do I want?” and “what will make me happy?” tend to be much more useful questions than “what am I, really?”

your pronouns are not a valid reason for someone to disrespect you
your name is not a valid reason for someone to disrespect you
your presentation is not a valid reason for someone to disrespect you
it doesn’t matter how unconventional any of these things are, you deserve a space to be genuine to yourself and your comfort levels regardless of norms
For guys
For gals
For nonbinary pals

Point of order: Plant estrogen doesn’t work like mammalian estrogen and eating estrogenous plants doesn’t actually do anything. I’ve heard that banana flowers contain progesterone but have not confirmed.
Other than that, 11/10 great list thank you OP you are doing the Lord’s work
butch trans women are often forgotten and ignored, despite the fact that they are amazing, stunning, magnificent, and just all around incredible. lots of love to all butch trans women! your gender is valid no matter how you present. ❤️
questioning your gender is perfectly normal and healthy
You are the only person who has any say at all when it comes to your own experience of gender. Nobody can define that for you and nobody can take it away from you.
a reminder

There is no true "queer" or "gay" look. You can be queer and dress how ever you want and still be queer. Your clothes dont define your gender and they dont define your sexuality.
Fact #939: No matter the pitch of your voice, your gender is always valid.
Don’t blame yourself when others misgender you. You deserve to have your pronouns respected, regardless of how they feel about them. Your pronouns should have never become a topic for debate. You have always deserved better.
You don’t owe anyone information about what gender you were given at your birth.
It doesn’t matter who wants that information. They can be cis, trans, nonbinary, genderqueer, a medical professional, a police officer, etc. but still they are not entitled to it.
This is your body and your life.
You should be able to decide who knows what for any reason.
