Khazgar:
And since Dora is currently struggling with her guilt feelings at firing Faye AND trying to work out how to run her business without her assisstant manager...I could see her making some comment without thinking about it. Maybe Dora will be the next breakdown!

Ok, just in case you needed a top level for weirdness of things to howl to:

Which I also kinda see Tai blasting at some point in time.
--- Quote from: BenRG on 19 Feb 2015, 23:22 ---Here is a conundrum for you. How can you tell if a person who normally is weird is acting weird? Is it "bluer than usual today"? Or "she's acting normal... that's weird!" In Emily's case, the answer is, of course, "grapefruit".

Please define, that could mean "irresponsible amounts of wine" too. I've seen that happen (The "weird because wine" part that is).
Outside of that, I don't see much to comment about this comic, just classic QC with a new couple up front. It's nice to see that every now and again.

--- Quote ---So today's strip has something for everyone - Marten and Claire, but no-one being or doing anything particularly cute AND the potential for future drama. Maybe we can all calm down for the weekend now?
--- End quote ---
I don't know, Emily howling at wolves sounds pretty cute.
--- Quote ---I'd be interested to know people's opinions on the cast's reactions to Claire coming out. Someone suggested that Faye might have an adverse reaction, but I'm not sure if I see that.
--- End quote ---
I can imagine Faye having a crude reaction to it, but probably not a intentionally negative one.

--- Quote from: valkygrrl on 18 Feb 2015, 22:14 ---The Andrea James link called it rarely used.
There's an easy way to settle it though. Find some people who were members of that community back then and ask. Given the number of trans people on the forum there must be a few, non?
Zoe?

Not me. I'm still not a member of a "trans community" even if one exists here. Never have been.
The first reference to Zissexualismus is from 1919 I believe, so is roughly contemporary with Transsexual. Neither word was in common use until later, but Transsexual came into common parlance long before Cissexual. I'd not heard the latter term 10 years ago, but it was as obvious in both derivation and need for a term as Intrasex is, as the opposite of Intersex.
"Intrasex" is rarely used too. Heck, many people still haven't heard of "Intersex".
Cisvestitismus was used even earlier, 1914. It's sorta obvious.
Khazgar:
For those that don't speak German...
Cisvestistmus: the inclination to put on clothes of another age group, class or profession of the same sex with the aim of sexual recreation. Related to transvestism. (See dressing urge).
Give me a few minutes to translate the other bit :-)
