That is good to know

2020-01-31 18:55:47 +0000 UTCI only really noticed the cautious Faye side-eye -> cautious Clare side-eye on rereading the comic. They're both pretty wary and sensitive people, cool to see this little extra bit of trust emerging.

2020-01-29 03:22:31 +0000 UTCAs someone who is trans: Trans girls get periods. Sure, there's no blood (not until uterus transplants become more common), but the rest of the period stuff is there: Cramps, headaches, moodswings, wanting to throw things and then break down in tears and the weird libido, etc.

2020-01-28 20:48:00 +0000 UTCSeveral of my friends experience this. It's totes normal for trans people on estrogen to have all the negative symptoms of a period like mood, pain, bloating, except bleeding.

2020-01-28 01:35:08 +0000 UTChere I thought there'd be a shitstorm but it just turns out Faye doesn't give two shits.

2020-01-27 23:15:43 +0000 UTCI am also in love with Bubb's dress. In part because I have a soft spot for peter pan collars.
Chris Crowther
2020-01-27 19:28:40 +0000 UTCI am in love with Bubs's dress, and I'm nearly ashamed to admit it's overshadowing my appreciation for this really adorable bonding moment. <3
2020-01-27 18:30:17 +0000 UTCI cant help but notice the absence of Pintsize. Was he, perhaps, ejected from the conversation? By whom, and with what velocity? And was the door open at the time, or will repairs be required?
Alex Borders
2020-01-27 16:07:18 +0000 UTCBubbles looks like she's about to go off to a waitressing job dressed like that.
Derrik Pates
2020-01-27 16:04:21 +0000 UTCIt's great that Claire is at that level of trust with Faye, but I can't get over how adorable Bubbles is in that dress.

2020-01-27 14:40:46 +0000 UTCBased on my personal experience and observations is that the male cycle peaks on puberty, then slowly cycles down over their lifetime. Somewhere in their mid-40's or later, they discover that women have faces. There should be a natgeo episode about it, really.

2020-01-27 14:18:14 +0000 UTCAll people have hormonal cycles. Male cycles tend to be more daily, but they do swing monthly to some degree.
Scott Krell
2020-01-27 13:30:28 +0000 UTCIt's worth noting that trans women can experience some symptoms of a period. Not menstruation obviously, but mood cycles and cramps can occur the same way.

2020-01-27 08:25:55 +0000 UTCIf we expand it to "using the toilet" I feel that has been an importent theme of the entire comic. See for example Marten's and Hannelore's first meeting
Bagge
2020-01-27 06:25:43 +0000 UTCindeed. https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1694
Bagge
2020-01-27 06:16:05 +0000 UTCCome to think of it, they only have one toilet in the apartment, correct? That seems sub-optimal.
Bagge
2020-01-27 06:13:57 +0000 UTCI don’t know if Willis would do that here. I feel the sentiment though.
AJ Saint
2020-01-27 05:53:08 +0000 UTCSomewhere, a man named David W. is wiping a tear of joy from his eye...
Brian English
2020-01-27 05:39:22 +0000 UTCI wonder what goes thru Jeph’s head when he’s like: “yep, lets do a whole sequence about ppl bonding over having the shits.”
Bryan Stopp
2020-01-27 04:44:43 +0000 UTCBubs has come a long way from the armor days.
Chris Heg
2020-01-27 04:43:22 +0000 UTCI mean, it gives her an unfair advantage over other women, as evidenced above XD
Aeryn Monet
2020-01-27 04:42:54 +0000 UTCLove the squint peek sequence. And Bubs in the dress!
Hugh Eckert
2020-01-27 04:26:11 +0000 UTC"Luke... I am your father. Got any Tums?"
Dean Reilly
2020-01-27 03:30:14 +0000 UTCI did not realise that could be a thing. Just curious, has it got to do with the hormone replacement regimen? Feel free to ignore me if I have over-stepped.
Matthew Van Gangelen
2020-01-27 03:11:47 +0000 UTCNow I sort of want to rearrange the bottom 4 panels in such a way as the conversation no longer makes any sense.

2020-01-27 03:06:54 +0000 UTCThis comic gives me life
Dylan T
2020-01-27 03:05:37 +0000 UTCIsn’t it squint, peek, peek, squint?
Matthew Van Gangelen
2020-01-27 03:04:14 +0000 UTCIt's really bad timing with Claire coming out with the shits... wait, that didn't come out right... Augh, that "didn't come out right" comment didn't come out right... and, uh, and... (*dies of recursive embarassment*)
kaitou
2020-01-27 03:02:24 +0000 UTCJust because she shared with Bubbles doesn't make it okay for Bubbles to share that kind of personal information about her with other people
Lily Ballard
2020-01-27 02:56:13 +0000 UTCYou know how in Dungeons and Dragons, there will often be artifacts that are just ordinary items, once owned by some powerful figure, and over time imbued with a bit of their essence just through sheer exposure? An item that had been exposed to Faye would probably list among its enchantment that it makes the wielder extra ornery.
Mitchell Sealy
2020-01-27 02:52:06 +0000 UTCYou have to feel sorry for Claire, because if it comes down to competing for that toilet, Faye's got a size and orneryness advantage.
Noise
2020-01-27 02:46:41 +0000 UTCI suspect that for a while now Faye hasn't known, not for lack of trust, but simply because it hadn't come up with her yet. Marten got the big confession since it was pretty relevant to their developing romance, so she decided to tell him as soon as she was ready to do so, but with Faye even once Claire was comfortable telling her she just kept waiting for it to come up naturally in conversation.
Mitchell Sealy
2020-01-27 02:44:36 +0000 UTCThat is the most '50s housewife dress I've ever seen in this comic. I approve and we need to see more.
z
2020-01-27 02:43:42 +0000 UTCTrans women can get periods, but it varies person to person. The anatomy is different, but the body will still try which causes most of the other stuff like cramps and whatnot. Also, we sync too
Sandrock
2020-01-27 02:41:16 +0000 UTCBubbles already knows about it. She compared her transition to Bubbles being comfortable with her body.

Captain Button
2020-01-27 02:34:46 +0000 UTCThat dress is adorable, and also it's probably nothing but Bubbles left before Claire mentioned that she's trans- part of me wonders if it's going to be a big deal when she learns about it, but I doubt so.
PBManning
2020-01-27 02:34:33 +0000 UTCBonding. Nice. Could have sworn Faye knew knew. And I love Bubbs maid outfit.
Michael Boettger
2020-01-27 02:33:35 +0000 UTCso glad her being trans is never played for drama <333

2020-01-27 02:33:30 +0000 UTCI want sh... nope, I can't think of a joke about that.
Nash Wolfe
2020-01-27 02:33:16 +0000 UTCI'm surprised it never came up before. I know she's talked to Bubbles about it, comparing their experiences about being comfortable in their bodies. I'm still waiting for her to talk to Roko.
JD
2020-01-27 02:33:07 +0000 UTCThis is how all coming out stories should be, just casually shared over upset tummies
Tali
2020-01-27 02:32:27 +0000 UTCBubbles looks so nice in her dress!!!
2020-01-27 02:31:18 +0000 UTCHow did Faye not know? Doesn't she read the comic?!?!
2020-01-27 02:31:15 +0000 UTCMisery loves company.
Michael Voorhis
2020-01-27 02:31:13 +0000 UTCThat’s the most casual “I’m trans” drop I’ve ever seen.
Val
2020-01-27 02:31:01 +0000 UTCReminds me of how my sisters socialize when they’re... “indisposed,” let’s say.

2020-01-27 02:30:47 +0000 UTCWho knew a comic about shit could me incredibly happy 😊
2020-01-27 02:30:45 +0000 UTCeverybody caught up? good
