    My friend was doing laundry and tripped while taking a basket of ironed clothes upstairs. I wanted to help but unfortunately all I could do was sit there and just watch it all unfold.

    After graduating, Gudim worked as an engineer, changed jobs, and improved in his career. However, he often felt bored and unsatisfied with his life. That's when he realized he wanted to go back to the hobbies he enjoyed as a child but with "a more mature perspective".

    I like to set my WiFi password as…. 2444666668888888. That way when people ask me for it I can say it’s…. 12345678

    Gudim told us that he created "Yes, But" in 2016. It was inspired by thinking about how people handle conflicting things in their lives. "In fact, this format is the destruction of expectations, that is, a fairly standard humorous technique, but the signature 'yes, but' brings all disparate situations under one 'template,' showing how comprehensive it can be."

    Constantly observing the world, Gudim notes intriguing or paradoxical moments that become the inspiration for his comics. Regarding his creative space, the artist told us that he finds peace in any calm environment where he can delve into his thoughts and ideas.

    You can be any orientation you want, but clothing sizes fit body types.

    I hate the fit of mens, but "women's" fit don't work either since they're like 14 sizes too small, lol.

    I cant reply to Bobert but let’s just point out that im intersex! :) how does that fit into your bigoted world view my man Edit: nobody here knows what intersex is. It’s a PHYSICAL difference, meaning my body lies outside of the typical borders of male and female! I’m a happy person who was simply born like this :)

    Intersex?! But how do you KNOW if you prefer pink or blue? /s I'm a human bio major and I wish more people could release their death grip on sex being a binary and accept that it's multifactorial and we still have so much to learn. Be you and rock on!

    Because the clothing is worn on the body not the identity.

    In most cases I would agree that more than two gender options are needed, but it the case of ordering t-shirts, it is based around the different cuts/measurements, so it is about picking the best fit for your body type rather than letting someone know about your identity. Perhaps clothing companies could find a different way to label the two styles, but that doesn't change that they only have two sets of sizing options.

    And there is no such thing as "unisex". "Unisex" = "mens" in the world.

    Straight cut. No curve, no shape... What fits most, decently. Men have narrower hips and they don't accommodate that for shape. Unisex military uniform fits no one well, but everyone decently. My nephew, my husband and I wear the same unisex pants size(medium short), while my husband and I wear medium short blouses, my nephew would be medium regular, and they fit all of us decently.

    I hate the transphobia on this site, do people really believe that teens with transphobic parents would deal with all that hate just for trend!? Do people also believe that it's a trend when trans people commit suicide or self harm!?

    Dear @bobertrobertson is that why so many schools still try to enforce religion into these so called schools of facts and learning? Are you still asking your imaginary man in the sky what to do?

    Not all conservatives are Christians, and I don't think we should treat other religions that way (do we also want atheism to be treated that way? Or Islam? Or so on) - better to attack the belief rather than the person.

    But which shape would non-binary be then? Don't mean any disrespect, I mean this as a genuine question. 🙈

    It would still probably be (plz don’t downvote I’m trying to explain in the best way) the sex they were born as at birth.

    People come in all kinds of shapes, not just “male” (carrot shape) and “female” (hourglass shape). For example with old age, I have become distinctly barrel shape

    in Spanish the new hot n-word (non-binary) comes in masculine and feminine genders, respectively, so...

    Because Spanish, and many other languages, are romance languages. All of their words are gendered. Everything is gendered in romance languages.

    I don’t get it? Is it covering the size? Because usually it’s printed on the label as well?
