I'm not straight or white or cis(although I probably pass for female), and I still have no idea why people are getting so upset about your comic. Your intentions were good and it was explained so well! I hope the flames die down and you get some peace. God bless~
I would understand people coming to correct whatever misguided views I might have, if they felt that they were wrong in any way, but I think getting upset and angry about it is a little over the top. I'd understand their anger if I had said something like "suck it up and get over it" which is not what I wanted to say at all. I want people to deal with their anger healthily and put it towards a cause - since it is a righteous anger.
Maybe because tumblr blogs are these sort of faceless entities it's easier to not feel guilty over letting your anger out on someone from across the world.
Ah, but yes, the flames actually have died down a lot. :) I closed down the message box not long after the comic was posted, and only reopened it a few months ago. I'm surprised that the comic still gets notes though - then again I was surprised that the comic got any notes at all!
Thank you for your kind words, I hope you have a lovely day. :) God bless you too!
