I still don't understand what you fucked up, though.

Living her life the way she sees herself would be much harder if she was screaming about the topic to anyone she could make listen at all times. Her average day would be like the forums here where it comes up in every conversation about her, overshadowing the rest of her _character_. You know, all that stuff that makes her a pretty neat person instead of just a prop for other people to use for their radical agendas.

It's not so much a matter of screaming about it for the sake of screaming about it. Being in a community of trans people (and well educated cis allies) means that it can become a topic of non-stigmatizing casual conversation, and makes activism feel safer and more rewarding — the sort of thing you can afford to do in little bits here and there, knowing that you have a strong support network to come home to at the end of the day.

Claire is a loud person, but her loudness does not extend to her demographic situation in a way that I'd expect it to if she felt like being loud was a safe thing to do.

Don't mind me too much. I always think that when someone mentions a change of opinion without stating to which side, they're going to the negative. That's why I thought I fucked up. But I actually didn't.

I've done that several times.  If you edit before another person posts, it treats it as "amending" the original post, no timestamp.  Sometimes you need to be quick about it, other times not-so-much.  Depends on the thread. 

Method of Madness:
Regarding Jeph's Q&As...those never take precedence over actual canon (comic). I guess they're the next best thing, though?

It wouldn't, in a community like Tai's, whence the somewhat confusing dissonance.
