Very nice, but I think you should let your art and story do the talking instead of turning it into another ‘advocacy’ soapbox.
Working it in like you do as part of their everyday lives makes it seem much more natural than assuming people need to be ‘told’ something and risk putting them off.
Sometimes a little goes a lot further than a lot and too much doesn’t go anywhere.
Take your time, we’ll be here waiting when you get back to it.
I liked your initial statements about how being trans fits into this world. It’s not magical and easy, it just is, with a society that’s like “please meet [name], they’re [x-y-z-å]” – acceptance is part of trans narrative. It doesn’t have to be about it even with a lead who is. The lead is a person who exists, who wears socks! Are socks relevant to their character? no? then why should their choice of gender be any different if it’s not relevant to the story you’re telling?
