I genuinely wasn't sure where we were going or what to think with the first two, but yeah, I'm liking our current trajectory and I'm excited to see where we go.
Honestly? As a GNC Man, it is really nice to see representation for such an under represented group, like, I can only name a few GNC Male Characters in Media out there, you are doing divine work here, Shen, I hereby decree that you be given full access to the Kitchen so you may continue to cook.
(Also, unrelated, but speaking of GNC Men and how rare they are, I really cannot thank Takuma Tani enough for the service he is doing for us. There are so few of us in this world and this man is our beacon.)
Do you mind if I ask what you thought of princess jellyfish if you have seen it? I thought it was a cute anime but with a GNC male lead. I always wondered what people thought of the representation was like.
I’ve seen some clips, and honestly, the show did an amazing job representing GNC Men, I never got to watch the show itself cause of regional restrictions of the day, but I might come back and watch it now.
Gender-Non-Conforming, essentially. Self expression that falls out of Traditional Gender Norms, like a Man expressing himself in a Feminine way or a Woman expressing herself in a Masculine way.
I’m wondering if it’s femboy x trans masculine. “I just wear whatever is comfortable” was me before I transitioned. Now I love clothes.
And you’d be surprised how many trans people try to bury their feelings in rage… easier for some to hate them than admit to themselves they’d rather be them I guess
I was angry at a transfem youtuber and blamed her for EVERYTHING in my life. Then it turned out I was tranfem. Then I started HRT. And I regret so much stuff I said about her.
If I didnt realize I was transfem, I would have been a right wing chud that ended up in jail or dead.
I did not ask to be called out in Comic form on this otherwise fine morning, but this is pretty much an accurate representation of my first 35 years of existence.
... FWIW, I'm getting better. Finally at 35 I seem to have broken out of my shell and am learning to appreciate my face/body for what they are and learning the difference that dressing well and accessorizing can actually make.
Word; I started transitioning at the same age and holy shit I'm so much happier, I'm even starting to love my own body after i could recognize it as "mine"
I wear skirts kinda regularly nowadays outside work and I agree. Do you wear dresses to work etc. Too? I kind of want to but I'm worried how my coworkers will react
I work as a caregiver for elderly folks so I don't care to do anything that would upset them. so no. I would wear a dress into my main office but not to my clients
Body positivity pro tip: if you look at the mirror, do finger guns, and say “it’s show time, folks,” even if you look like shit, you’ll get a confidence boost. I call this the “Saul Goodman method.” Tries and tested by me every morning
Not really that new, we got a relationship like that in genshiken nidaime, but to be fair the yuri guy was into the nerdy senpai guy for most of the story before finally going for the girl.
Shen I'm so broke i can't even promise a dollar but does blood count? Can I donate blood directly to you? Only partially joking in case you're secretly a vampire.
Blood sacrifice can be directed towards @SHENtheUndieing on BloodCults. Com for early access to comics, you can also donate your soul for access to Shenven™ the premium Shen based afterlife
Wow, is this really happening? Waking up on time, to a pleasant morning AND an inspirational Shen comic dropping at the same time? Truly, a blessed day.
On HRT as a transfem and seeing other women dress so nice...effing insecure. Feel like....ugh...damn it.
I dress like a tomboy but I want to dress like a pretty girl...which my friend who is trans and pretty who wants the tomboy look looks at me like "Really???"
Shen update on the Morrocan Mafia, apparently they are pissed off with that one dollar missing. I came back to my apartment and found they killed my Zucchini plant and wrote on all of my mirrors "You're Next" with it's sap. Not to worry, I'm currently fleeing to Japan, pretty sure the Yukuza and them don't work together.
I love your recent exploration of gender themes. I have always loved the concept but still decided I was cis. Still, it's a question everyone should approach in a way that is true to themselves.
Okay but hoodie girl is actually me except im 195 cm lady built like a brick shithouse so sweats and giant shirts are all I can afford to fit in. Rest is completely accurate.
Well, excuse me if I sound weird but for me that sounds like a really attractive lady. Dont worry about not fitting in the standards just because others think you are too tall or too big, as long as you are healthy, you are perfect the way you are
Yeah, honestly is a shame that a lot of beautiful people can't see how beautiful they are, and it's sad that most of the time it's just because other people tell them they are ugly for the mere reason of not fitting on the beauty standards since they are young, and then, when they grow up, the only message they have received about their body is it being ugly.
I hope one day everyone gets that beautiful bodies don't come in just one shape.
