i think it's funny how the main character going on tirades about how all men are degenerate rapists is fine because it makes sense for her character, but the "bad' guys calling someone a fag isn't, even though it makes sense for them as characters in the context of the story. you can't comment on societal issues (at least i think that's what the point of this series is) without showing them happen, otherwise it's just confusing. glad to know doc shares a love for snakes with me. also it's pretty funny how attaboys' head bags make them look like dick glans. i assume it's intentional

Well, I am already pushing it enough by making a female character that is critical of males. I've seen gay people tell straights to "stay out of gay people's business" so since I'm heterosexual, I avoid looking at lgbt discourse. I don't really know much about it. All I know is that when people see that slur (even if the context is from a character who's supposed to be -phobic) it becomes a hassle to deal with & I don't want the comic focus on gay slurs. (I have other reasons, too, but too much to write here)

I know some people assume all women are privileged golddiggers, just eat birth control, date chads, watch Euphoria, and can freely talk shit about men, but that is only a caricature. I don't think people understand the reality that I live in constant fear, especially writing stuff like this. This comic isn't "fun" for me to write. But I know I'm in a better position than other women who are too polite, brainwashed, or can't speak at all. So talking about men, gay or not, I am trying to weigh my options on what will hurt me less in the future.

The At-taboy design wasn't intentional, but that is funny. At-tan's round head + dress making her outline look like a keyhole was intentional by me, though.
