The hypocrisy of cis-feminism is astonishing. . . #comic #gender #feminism #transgender #language #cissexism #illustration

Disclaimer : This comic does not intend to make light of cyber bullying and abuse. All my love and support goes out the victims of these crimes. There is no question that we need better cyber-security laws, that we deserve accountability from the web and its users. 

However, these crimes are committed to humiliate. And every piece of ‘advice’ that places responsibility on the victims is working under the same frame as the intent of the abuser. Don’t shame people’s bodies, shame the perpetrators.

First published by Feminism in India.

I find it so poetic that my dad's old copy of A Farewell To Arms looks like it has bullet holes seared through its pages.
