Nope! “Cisgender” refers to when a person’s biological sex aligns with their gender identity whereas “straight/gay/bisexual/etc” refer to a person’s sexual identity that’s defined to the kind of people they’re attracted to.

Well, if society wasn’t filled with and run by sexist, racist assholes, this wouldn’t be necessary, now would it?

There’s definitely going to be a subtext to American Politics. Look at this picture of the clowns:

People who prefer the PS2's “quality” visuals are the same people who think VHS offers an experience you can’t get with Blu-ray and that the distortion and low fidelity fuzzing sounds on ancient LP’s are better than than crystal clear audio where you can hear all the instruments.

JohnnyStorm: Flame ON. Literally, haha!

Those reactions are a bit muted, I want to see all the X-Men hit a gay bar together with some of them being a little uncomfortable and Gambit being possibly too good a wingman.

You’re probably right. Thing is, while Marvel does hire great new artists from reasonably diverse backgrounds, the higher ups are still roughly the same folks as a decade ago. Which is a problem.

I have no idea how anyone thought this event was a good idea. I do not know why at least one person didn’t think, “hey, wait a second” or “gee, this might not look so good” and not stop this.

A lot of commenters have suggested that in previous articles. A thick skin is necessary for online gaming, don’t get me wrong, but these commenters fail to understand that harassment in games is a reflection of a real-life culture that pays women less in the workplace, resists healthcare coverage of birth control (but…

I agree with the idea of being an ally in these situations (ones that pop up far too often), but I am also worried that chiming into these scenarios with jackasses online will just result in more aggravation and shouting matches with them. If they’re already big enough tools to behave this way at the outset, I doubt…

Protip: if you have ever written or said the following phrases or something similar in regards to online harassment:

Well, I believe this game will have multiplayer, based on the fact that on the Switch’s reveal trailer (back in October), you see a girl playing the new Mario game on her house, then she goes to a rooftop party to keep playing with her friends, giving one of her Joycon to another girl. I presume she kept playing Mario…

Yup, we do. My gf and I just finished our time with Destiny.. The Last of Us is this week (she’s never finished it), then on to Uncharted 1-3 before 4's DLC comes out.

No, gtfo my Mario. This dad needs some mustachioed sugar in his life.

Very cool! So am I and this pleases me greatly! Can’t wait to see more from you! Welcome indeed! :)

Always love to see more trans writers. Welcome aboard!

I am!
