For the small character, I don't know. The fez makes me think of Turkey, but they remained neutral until the war was practically over, though of course perhaps the cartoonist thought they'd join in sooner. The necklace that he carries should probably help identify him; you also see him on another cartoon. e: Fat dog Cat Mattress fucked around with this message at 23:57 on Apr 10, 2017 |

You'd think with this being such a rampant problem, he could find a real transgenderrorized child that wouldn't require such poorly photoshopped pigtails.

Also note that Dees falls in line with conservative thought that the only trans people are MtF.

Somfin posted:Also note that Dees falls in line with conservative thought that the only trans people are MtF. It's because he's horrified at the idea of a man becoming a woman, ie "lesser" (to them). They see it as the natural order of things that a woman would want to "better" herself by attaining male-dom and emulating male activities, so long as doing so doesn't threaten the male gaze or male power. (SEE: "Lesbians are good as long as they are attractive and performing in porn" and "Bisexual means you'll totally let me in on an MFF threesome, right?")

As a cartoonist, wouldn't it make more sense to draw an elephant in the room to represent said elephant in the room? Also, an elephant wouldn't be in someone's lap. You know I just don't think this is a very good use of that metaphor.

just in case you didn't think that Dees comic was dumb enough reminder that 'Baphomet' was entirely made up to smear the knights templar and then latched onto by losers like Lévi to go 'no he really is real and powerful and my friend DOES THAT SHOCK YOU MOM???'. Like, he might as well say trans kids were invented to serve Sauron, it has as much theological meaning

Like, he might as well say trans kids were invented to serve Sauron, it has as much theological meaning I remember reading at some point that the "Baphomet" wasn't entirely made up, rather, it's a corruption of "Muhammad" and medieval Christians mistakenly believed that it was the name of an idol or demon that Muslims worshiped, so the (made up) accusations against the Knights Templar were essentially that they'd "gone native" and become secret Muslims. But yeah either way, theologically it means nothing.

They also believed Muslims worshipped a god called Termagant, which doesn't even seem to be a misunderstanding so much as made up out of whole cloth. I'm surprised that one hasn't come back.

Man, I wish my parents were devil worshippers, would've made coming out as trans/Satan's pal pretty easy. He also doesn't get trans kid healthcare: you never start estrogen treatment before puberty. What usually happens (for kids and parents who want medical intervention) is puberty blocking drugs until the kid gets older, then start HRT. It's not prepuberty then, it's actually starting puberty the same way any other kid does, just with the right hormones for the kid.
