I had that from someone who had never actually known me by anything but my preferred name, and I called them out on it. I was like ‘Where did you even find that other name? I have never used it since I met you. Stop making stuff up and use the name I gave you to call me, or I won’t respond.’ They got the message finally. Some people are stupid.
Hey there! First, great comic-strips! Second -and I know this comes waay late, sorry- I’ve got the feeling in the last reads that you’ve gotten more confident on deffending your identity in front of other people and demanding the human respect we should all offer eachother in a regular basis. And I just want to say, as an anxious, cowardly person, that I find it simply amazing. I hope that nowadays you’re even more confident, and overall happy… Even when it’s 2020, haha…
that’s harder when it’s coming from the people you’ve known your whole life :’)
