--- Quote from: Method of Madness on 24 Sep 2014, 20:40 ---A good rule-of-thumb is if you're going to post about trans issues, read the sentence aloud to yourself before you post it and replace "trans" with another minority group. If it doesn't sound like it's ok to post with the change, then it wasn't ok in the first place.

I really don't get this response in this context. He wasn't saying "ew a trans relationship", it read to me like pleased surprise. It'd be like someone on a Star Trek board in the 60's saying something like "Kirk and Uhura? An interracial kiss portrayed positively? unpossible!" Reads to me like someone who was pleasantly surprised Trek was being so progressive. If expressing that emotion is taboo I just dkwtf.
Anyway I'm definitely low man on the totem pole. I'll see myself out
CompSarge:
Yup...Panel 3 Claire is officially the cutest Claire yet. Probably because she let her hair down (which we haven't seen much, if at all).

Most likely not, we're still in the middle of the night. My guess is that whatever happens in tomorrow's comic will still be Clairten centered. Or Yelling bird.

Well, Hanners is yet to be accounted for. I rather doubt she's hiding just outside of the panel ...

Claire - you have to be the responsible adult now. That's difficult when the guy you find unbearably yummy is massaging your scalp so you're melting.
But.. he's not thinking clearly. OK, you aren't either.
Falling asleep in each other's arms is appropriate at this point though.
That's what we did in a similar situation at New Years Eve 1979. By February 1980, just two months later, we were engaged, and married a year later.
It's been an interesting 33 years. :laugh:
And talking about matters Trans and Matrimonial - a very good friend of mine got married to the girl of his dreams on Tuesday. He transitioned 8 years ago, but I first met him in 1999. I think the most honourable man I know. I ignored doctors orders (and am now paying the price) but I journeyed through three states to be there at the ceremony. I cried buckets - but so did all the other women my age. Happy tears.
Ten years ago, this was an impossibility, something that could never happen. But dreams sometimes do come true. Even the most unlikely ones, where you have to travel halfway round the planet from the place of your birth to find your compliment. As did he. As did I.

So ... Faye was right !
