I've got tears, thoughts and smiles.. A real empathy booster and an awesome, brave and talented artist.. I adore Julia! Hugs from denmark

:,)

Wow, you are very lucky :D So sweet and warm.

yay for Dans!

I'm curious as to how you felt in that situation.

*Crying* (':

Save your vitriolic b******t. No one here cares about your narrow minded opinion. Rejecting a fundamental aspect of one's identity would be to repress who they truly feel they are, day after day, for a lifetime. Gender is about more than private parts, and if you don't know that or can't grasp that then you have no business contributing your opinion.

This series is giving me back some faith in humanity. Thank you.

I want to hug you, too :(

Really? Never thought about that effect

That is something you share with every girls on Earth ;p

I love your comics! As a genderfluid person I relate sooooo much!

There is an universal truth in this. Too often, we develop anxiety about something, only to realize that we worried for nothing. Story of my life...

At least, if you dress like a woman, no one will really notice anything, as female toilettes have better privacy than males', so don't be afraid, girl. Just go and do your business.

😱💜 this is great, just changing "when you were a guy", to "when I thought you were a guy" makes the phrase change from underhandedly transphobic, to a way of showing validation while discussing something from before being out. What an amazing friend!

THEY are the ones who shouldn't exist :(

Words can hurt so bad.

I used to think like that about people who were getting all mad at gay people existing, or science-deniers and all that as well as the transphobia, but then I learned, definitively, that they have no logical reason for their dislike and are therefore "the problem", not people like me. Essentially, I let my ego benefit me for a change in order to put those people down by treating myself as superior to them.

Oh the hell you should young lady! You're an amazingly talented artist, I admire your courage, strength and the unbroken, sweet outlook you have on your own life and on those around you, even the ones that hurt you by being careless or actually malicious. You go girl, I'm a huge fan already.

You think of them, and their message, the same way you'd think of a rabies virus, or a mosquito-born illness...it exists in the world but it's bad for you and has no positive function. They are the psychic equivalent of malaria.

Those who try to limit others are mentally and emotionally limited in their understanding.

Actually, I have prejudice against some kinds of trans or genderfluid people just because they behave the way everybody owes them something and they are sooo deeply hurt by the way things are in the world. But I think I would like you as a friend or just a person being around. You make me feel more positive and comfortable about all of this. Thanks!

People who spread hate and negativity should just stop and think that they are speaking to a fellow human being. They might as well hate someone for how they tie their shoelaces.

You DO exist, and should exist. Thransphobia, homophobia, these are ignorant people, or, they secretly harbor some similar feelings, and don't dare be open to anyone. So, they take that fear, and unresolved rage, and try to make someone else miserable. Just don't say a word. At all. It shouts them down well. And if they continue, contact the FBI for internet harassment ! They are easy to find, most times. They don't know how to hide their own lazy, ignorant asses!

I agree. You shouldn't exist but I guess Schizophrenic people exist too so...

people like to say that external validation shouldn't mean anything... but it soooo does for everyone. Of course i want other people to like me, and not put me down, or invalidate my experiences because they haven't had to deal with them. The downer to being a social species... but also an upper when you gain a support network that can help keep you up when others get ya down.

You know, sometimes people are just tired or distracted ;) I've been called "Mr" by a cashier last week and I am a cis woman, I have long hair and currently huge tits thanks to breastfeeding. These kind of professions see a lot of people a day and repeating the same sentences again and again.... They are likely to make mistakes, you know, just like the kids that call the teacher "Mum" ;p Yet, I understand it can hurt your feelings. You don't need to grow a thicker skin for that (I'm affraid you're armor will have better use), you just have to realise you're a beautiful woman and that those kind of error are just scatterbrain mistakes.

I have to admit. Its a little hard for me to accept transgenders or, their lifestyle choices. But one things for sure: judging isnt an option. They are people, and not creatures like some people treat them as. Im glad Julie has loving friends in her life :)

Weren't you "Julie" in another comic? Or just a nickname perhaps. That name would be harder to mishear.

Welcome to the world of tall and insecure girls. This thing was so normal for me but i went over it.

I can never get it right. I struggle to the point that I get two different thick lines and get irritated

They're probably just trying to be nice and upset you 😔 I've seen it in person

l.o.v.e.

You go girl!

Spent a Saturday night at a police station once, about a year and half into my transition... The officer refused to accept that my drivers license was mine...

I was washing up in the ladies' room last week and the lady using the sink next to me turned to me and said, "I just love your hair!" The effects of HRT are starting to show. Even at age 66. It's amazing,exciting, and wonderful!

I just love this one

This is normal for everyone.

So beautiful!

I know many women that wear and buy guy cloths so I'd say wearing them occasionally would still be acceptable unless it makes you feel awkward then do what you need to do.

Aww this ones so nice!! Happy Birthday girl!!

of course not! there's plenty of women with deep voices. think of cher! wonderful voice and nobody would question her femininity for that! :)

Spot on! :)

This one made my day!

I get this so much.

but maybe they were compliments oramibeingnaive

If your dress stays up like that I'm impressed.

Sweetie, unfortunately, we girls have this talent for being our own worst critic.

Very important step~~<3

the only thing that changed is that the real you has come to life

You've discovered one of the unfortunate truths of female life. Welcome to the new normal!
