Since my coming out back on tumblr in 2015, I’ve done so much involving my gender and experiences. I never imagined Gender Slices would become anything bigger than a tumblr comic that 5-10 people would read. But it did. It became so much more. I’ve met so many cool people through this comic. I published… Continue reading I’ve come a long way

Gender Slices has made it to 200 pages! I never thought I’d do this. I didn’t think this little comic about scenes from my life would become anything, but it did! It got bigger than I thought, bigger than I could handle at times. Thank you for sticking with me this long and reading about… Continue reading The End

Black and white comic page. Panel one shows a young Jey looking down at their first binder with a smile. A narration box reads “After being out as nonbinary since 2015, today on October 7th 2023, I started HRT” with a note next to Jey that reads “age 24”. Panel two shows an older Jey putting gel on their upper arm with a smile. They’re shirtless but wearing pants and you can see some of their top surgery scars. Narration box reads “It was a long journey to get here and I find myself excited and nervous about change.”

I just can’t stay away from autobio comics for long. I did this comic when I started my first dose of testosterone gel!! I thought I’d want to journal about my journey but comics just make more sense. So I guess Gender Slices has been sort of revived for now, maybe I’ll have enough to… Continue reading HRT Diary – 1

Black and white traditionally drawn comic. Panel one, I’m pointing at a calendar that reads November 7th, 1 month on T and I’m saying “I’m one month on T today!” Panel two, similar panel but I’m holding a bottle of Androgel and saying “Not much has happened yet, but I’m trying to be patient. I am on a low dose to start. Panel three, similar panel but shoulder view up and I’ve got my arms crossed with my eyes closed saying “But, despite them already being pretty hairy--”, Panel four, zooms out to show a simplified version of myself in Hobbit clothes looking at my very hairy feet. I’m saying “I think my feet have gotten even hairier! Why there first?!”

Another entry in today’s HRT diary, it’s my one month anniversary! I’m not one to do monthly celebrations but this, like top surgery, just feels like such a milestone. Like, I did it! I’m here! I have a really good support system and wouldn’t be here without my spouse and friends. I’ll keep anniversaries to… Continue reading HRT Diary – 3

Black and white comic page with five panels. Panel one, Jey is seen from the waist up with their arms up in excitement saying “I’m 2 months on T today!” Panel two, a zoomed out shot of Jey pondering as they say “Not much has changed yet. My mood is up because I’m on T, but I feel the same as I did pre-T. It’s a slow process.” Panel three, zoom back in and Jey is holding up their slightly hairy left arm and hand and they say “I am steadily getting hairier all over.” The text “arm hair!” is outside of any speechbubble and closer to their arm. Panel four, Jey lifts up their right arm to match their left and they look at it curiously saying “My right side is definitely darker than my left.” Panel five, a wide panel of a zoom in of Jey’s mouth and sparse moustache while Jey is pointing to it with both hands while they say “Especially on my moustache!”

My 2 months was the other day and while things have been slow, they have been happening! It’s more gradual than I expected, but I’m also not complaining, I’m glad I’m taking it slow. Really jazzed about getting hairier too! I think I’m in a much better headspace at 33 for this – actually, maybe… Continue reading HRT Diary – 4
