Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Thank you. Though ten years ago this terminology was reversed, and people were arguing that "females" also referred to trans women. The terminology has shifted, in a much better direction imho, and so very many factors were involved e.g. as trans people (those who were "out" anyway) on the internet used to mostly come from Europe, vs. today where it is a more global movement.
So, JKR is a TERF okay (the R=radical, aka hostile not just misunderstood), but I don't think we can assume this of every person, e.g. an 80 year old grandma (and someone raised by them) may use the word "female" without fully hostile intentions?
Hence flag, but I'm not 100% certain that it's red. Even 90% certainty isn't fully 100%.
But, I'm sure I said before yet it very much bears repeating: I could be wrong. Or thinker than I drunk I am:-) (/s btw, but only that last sentence)
