i used to hesitate addressing mat's trans-ness because i was worried about the backlash of having a trans male protagonist in a gay/BL story. but then i realized i don't ever want to cultivate an audience that hates trans people, hates me, and would hate my work. trans rights forever.
Need more artists to openly and explicitly say trans rights so I know which ones to trust that won't backstab us for a transphobic + misogynistic art trend
