Redraw of a double page spread I did in my sketchbook.
Meet Djalu/Neferatemu of the Tirratzlikhan and his little desert adder familiar! A Dnd character in a growing list of characters I hope to play one day.
I had a lot of fun thinking about the culture of the Tirraztlikhan, a desert village supposedly blessed with immunity from a particularly mischevious and often malevolent God. Specifically the naming conventions, as each person usually has at least three.
The first name is received upon birth, and is endowed by the druid/wiseperson. Djalu's childhood name was Neha, a name that is continually used throughout adulthood to refer exclusively to the person as a child.
During childhood, he picked up the personal family name of Xhochi, something name that functions a bit more like a nickname exclusively for close family and loved ones throughout his lifetime. You have to know him really, really well to be able to use this name.
At his coming of age ceremony though, Neha got to choose a new name for himself, and settled on Djalu. A name generally used informally between casual acquaintances and friends.
In becoming a druid though, Djalu was also gifted a formal druid name: Neferatemu, which he pretty much only uses in formal contexts or when he's throwing his weight around as a druid.
And of course, finally, there is his spirit name. A name only known by Djalu and higher powers, and used exclusively by the Gods in addressing Djalu during communion or ceremonies.
"Femboy" is a wonderful term. But I was thinking, what happens when you get older, and you're too old to be a 'boy' but too young to be an "Old Queen"? Are you just a "feminine-presenting adult male"?
So, allow me to propose a new term:
Me, years ago: If I want to be a Proper Trans Boy and be Respected By People then I must always be masculine and not wear dresses, or skirts, or makeup, or paint my nails—
The Internet:
Toxic Masculinity
Femboys
Me, crying in joy, painting my nails, curling my eyelashes, wearing a dress because it is Too Damn Hot for shorts, self-esteem skyrocketing: Yeah go ahead
Godric on the way to destroy his hands 🫠 My little gravedigger does believe there's something inherently wrong with bodies that departed from the souls. His hands seem never to be cleansed enough after touching the dead >: [to all ppl with OCD: read abt it a bit I'm not sure how accurate that stuff is, I've never had urges to clean myself excessively to that extent, so forgive me for portraying it in a wrong way]
This is my OC Godric :3 He's just a tiny puppy gravedigger goth femboy that also does burial masses and stuff I always wanted to have an OC tormented by thoughts about death from spending more time with the dead than the living
I probably blocked most of the people this is relevant to, but a transphobe cannot be an ally to GNC people.
An ally is an ally to people who might be. They do not withold support until a peer-reviewed study has proven that they are, and they do not create an environment that prevents someone from discovering they are not.
Being GNC is not a pipeline to being trans. Nevertheless, there are quite a few trans people who start of GNC, before discovering it's not just how they want to present. An ally lets someone discover which one they are on their own terms. They do not say "you are trans, you're just in denial". They do not say "you aren't trans, that's mental illness".
Actually, even more wild is the number of TERFs looking at this post and thinking "This post agrees with me". I am literally asking for a space where people respect other peoples' gender identities. A person who defines their political stance on how they don't respect certain people's genders is not welcome in such a place.
Call it queer infighting, but I feel like a safe space for GNC people should not have people who insist that being GNC is a pipeline to being trans.
It's been wild seeing all the people immediately jump to calling this transphobia. I am literally asking for people to respect other peoples' gender identities.
I even very specifically did not say "trans people" in my original post, because the problem is not and never was trans people. (In fact, I'd say a GNC safe space needs to let trans people in for the same reason any queer safe space, including GNC ones needs to be able to let cishet people in--if it's not a safe space to people who are questioning, it's not a safe space)
I wouldn't even go as far as attributing this behavior to trans people. When it comes down to it, the people themselves are not the problem, it's their behavior.
The problem isn't trans people, it's people--of any identity--who think that, for some reason, the phrase "you should respect other people's identities" does not apply to them.
Call it queer infighting, but I feel like a safe space for GNC people should not have people who insist that being GNC is a pipeline to being trans.

Edit: TERFs fuck off. You are just as bad when it comes to respecting people's gender identity as the people I'm complaining about.
I don't like derailing my own post, but since so many of you people have shared this, it's too good of an opportunity to pass up.
We posting pride flags? Here's my femboy command squad for my Sons of the Phoenix.
They're, uh, definitely sons of Dorn.
