T With A Side of POP Comic by Jey Pawlik, done in cool minty green tones with heavy blacks and black linework, with an addition of dark reds on page 3 and cool purples on page 4 and 5. Jey is a white nonbinary person with short black cropped hair and big rectangular glasses wearing various plain t-shirts, cozy sweaters and long sleeve tops. Jey’s endocrinologist placeholder is a woman of colour with long wavy black hair, a pleasant smile and wearing a collared shirt with an ID lanyard. Narration: At my testosterone check-up Jey and their endocrinologist sit in a doctor’s office. Endo asks “So, how are things?” Jey responds happily, “Good, I’m really liking my dose and changes.” Endo asks “And your period?” To which Jey puts their hands on their face and looks dreadful and says “UGH! It’s decided to stick around and I’m so sick of it!! It is lighter, but it’s still there.” Endo ponders this and says “Hmm yes, that can happen.” Then makes the suggestion “Well, we can discuss an option to try and get rid of it for good.” Jey perks up excitedly and says “WHA—For real? I’m all ears!!” Endo gestures to a bubble that reads “POP” in bubble letters, with a little can of pop (or soda as some people call it) she tells Jey “Alrighty, I can prescribe you a ‘progestin-only pill,’ or POP—a type of birth control pill that can suppress periods if taken back-to-back and see how that does you.” Jey looks sceptical and responds “Birth control? Hmmm, I dunno…”

Close up of a wonk-eyed baby doll face. Close-up of Emil's freaked out eyes. The bald man asks "Do you want me to cover up the dolls?" and Emil responds, "Would you mind?" A blanket covers the doll cabinet. As Emil and the bald guy lean in to kiss, Emil says "It's a cool collection though." Transcribed by Erika Moen 10/23/23

Hookups are supposed to be no-strings-attached, but what if your one night stands comes attached to... a weird collection. What kind of collections are a boner-ending hookup dealbreaker? Find out what Emil Wilson did in this exact situation! And from all of us at Oh Joy Sex Toy, HAPPY HALLOPEEN!
#Comic #Hookup #Halloween #Autobio

Narrator: I arranged a hook-up with this hot guy. We seemed compatible. Emil, a white man wearing glasses, looks at a picture of a smiling bald man on his phone. Narrator: I arrived at this apartment and happily, he looked exactly like his online photos. The same bald man is smiling as he opens his apartment door and we can see many full shelves behind him. Narrator: His apartment was crammed with stuff. At first I thought he was a hoarder but then I realized that he was a collector. Of many, many things. The bald man proudly points out his collections to Emil. The walls are completely lined with shelves that are full with similarly shaped objects. Narrator: These collections included: thimbles, bobbleheads, dice.

Narrator: If this had been a romantic date, these collections would be a way to understand this guy better: who was he? What did he value? Emil looks at the smiling bald man. Narrator: More Collections: Lego sculptures, Air Jordans, superman stuff. Narrator: But with a hookup, there was no reason to be curious or judgmental. Our paths will probably never cross again. Besides, 40% of all people collect something. The Bald Man asks, "Do you want something to drink?" and Emil replies "Nah. Where's the bedroom?" The bald man opens his bedroom door for Emil and gestures him inside. Narrator: During a hookup, you're invited into the most intimate area of a stranger's home. And that's where the collections can get more personal.

Narrator: Collections in the Guy's Bedroom: Disney figurines (But only the female villains), celebrity hair (several small bags pinned to a cork board) Narrator: I contemplate what collection, if any, might be a dealbreaker for me, something so challenging that I might have to leave before things got physical. Emil regards the collections quizzically, with a finger to his lips. Narrator: Hunting knives (no way!), Smelly, mold stuff (Do people really collect that?), MAGA stuff (he can believe any ideology he chooses but that doesn't mean I'll get naked with him) Narrator: In his bedroom, he has shelves of Victorian dolls. Most are old and broken. Many of them have at least one eye missing. The Bald Man puts his hand on Emil's back as Emil looks at the shelves of Victorian dolls.

Narrator: These dolls seem to be watching us. Even the ones without eyes. Illustrations of a mass of broken unnerving dolls. The Bald Man begins kissing Emil's neck and snaking his arms around Emil's shoulders from behind, while telling him, "Relax". "Yeah, I know" Emil responds, looking frozen and unsettled. Narrator: The look like demons. An illustration of a cracked, eye-less baby doll face. More eye-less broken doll faces are shown with the text "Just close your eyes maybe those dolls were his grandmother's" floating over and around them.

#Asexual #Comic #Autobio #Queer #Ace101

IMAGE: Maia gestures in front of a wall of tea containers, each labeled different asexual statuses. Some labels include: aceflux, demi, reciprosexual, greysexual, cupiosexual, lithosexual, fictosexual, aegosexual, fraysexual.

Maia: There are millions of ways to be ace! We can use increasingly spevific microlabels to try to put words to our experiences, but the truth is: identity is dynamic and fluid and messy, and language is always evolving.

Friend: But... but... then what's the point?!

Maia: Having a word for yourself is empowering! When I finally discovered the word asexual, it was such a huge relief! It gave depth and context to my sexuality, and connected me to a whole community of people like me, people who get me and celebrate this part of my identity. Being ace is something I LOVE about myself. It's powerful and joyful and freeing. I love it so much, I wanna just- (Maia points at their baseball cap with the Ace flag on it) -wear it on my forehead.

#Asexual #Comic #Autobio #Queer #Ace101

Two figures sit in a lavender living room that's very comfy and has lots of cats around. They are drinking tea.

Maia: -and that's why I can't go back like, ever again.

Friend: Completely fair. Speaking of fair: how was the maker faire?

Maia: Rad! That's where I got this sweet hat!

IMAGE: Close-up on Maia's black baseball hat, which has the black, gray, white, and purple-striped Asexuality flag on it.

IMAGE: Friend holding tea mug and talking.

Friend: It's... a pride flag... it's on the tip of my brain- Oh! The asexual flag!

Friend: You posted about being ace in April! Full disclosure: I googled it, but I'm still pretty vague on what asexuality is... I think it's the "A" in LGBTQIA? But I still have, like, so many questions.

Maia: I'd love to be your ace wiki for the day, if you're down?

Friend: Ohh, yes please!

Maia: Great, this is my jam. Let's spill the tea on asexuali-TEA!

Maia: So, what would you say attraction feels like?

Friend: Hmm... I guess it's like a strong pull towards someone?

IMAGE: The friend leans forward to stroke a gray-striped cat that hopped on their table and is walking towards them.

Maia: Totally! But it took some super personal chats with my all- (non-ace) -friends to realize we meant different things when we talked about being into someone. It turns out that attraction- that pull- is made up of different parts.

IMAGE: Another table houses multiple bowls of looseleaf teas, with a sign proclaiming, "Build your own!". Each bowl is labeled differently: Sensual, Romantic, Sexual, Aesthetic

Maia: I've got romantic attraction in spades. It's just that for me, that romantic attraction isn't linked to sexual attraction.

Friend: So, when you feel drawn toward someone, you just don't... have the desire to bone them?

Maia: Pretty much! And that's what asexual means: little to no sexual attraction.

IMAGE: Back in the tea house, the friend observes two cats curled up on a shelf on the wall.

Friend: Something I still don't get: you've talked about crushes and dates and stuff before. Are your dates just Netflix and actual chill?

Maia: Haha, sometimes! But other times I do take it to the bone zone. For me, sex is often about emotional intimacy with my partner. Heck, sometimes I just need to scratch a biological itch, even if my body isn't pointing me towards a specific person to get it done. Plus, for me, it feels good!

Friend: Whoa, you actually... like sex?

Maia: Yeah, there's even a word for it in ace space: sex-favorable. And whether sex favorable, sex-indifferent, or sex-repulsed, all aces are still ace.

IMAGE: Three cats illustrate the different states of asexual sexual interest.
Sex-Favorable cat smiles and approaches a hand to be pet.
Sex-Indifferent cat sits by itself, licking its paw.
Sex-Repulsed cat is all puffed up and hissing.

Friend: Hold up... a 'little' bit of sexual attraction still counts as ace?

Maia: Yeah, it's not always an all-or-nothing thing. Some people experience sexual attraction rarely, or only under certain circumstances, or just at very low levels. It's kind of a spectrum.

Friend: I guess that tracks, very few things in life are totally black and white!

Maia (gesturing at the black, gray, white, purple-striped Asexual flag): Exactly. That's what the grey is for. Anyone who feels like they don't totally vibe with a 'typical' allo experience is welcome, even if they're in that grey zone between allo and 'absolute zero' sexual attraction.

Friend: Sounds like there's lots of SPACE- in ACE!

IMAGE: Maia plants the Ace flag on the moon, waving at a rocket (also emblazoned with the ace flag) as it cruises by.

Maia: Haha, yep! My ace experience might not be the same as someone else's, but the label gives us a starting place for finding common ground.

Een conversatie met Marcus Aurelius in stripvorm waarin, als ik zeg dat zijn meditaties mij wat tegenvallen, hij mij uitlegt dat hij ze niet voor mij maar voor zichzelf geschreven heeft. Waarna ik, als ik nadenk over hoe ingewikkeld zijn leven moet zijn geweest, zijn werk een stuk beter kan waarderen.

Erika puts her hands on her younger self’s shoulders. “Feel your feelings dude,” she says. “Feel the fuck out of them.” Young Erika sniffles and looks back at her with red and teary eyes. Erika continues, “And in time you’re going to realize that they’re mostly coming from your own deepest insecurities and fears that you’ve always had, long before you even met her.” Erika gestures at a series of tarry, black thoughts that ooze out of a gaping hole in Young Erika’s chest, which say things like “I’m alone”, “I’m unloveable”, “I deserve to be rejected and abandoned”, “I’m bad”, and “I hate myself”. Erika helps push the tarry thoughts back into the hole in her younger self’s chest. “Get therapy, dude,” she says. “Learn how to fill your heart with your own tools, so you’re not just sucking somebody else dry to fill your own emptiness.” Young Erika turns away to clutch her chest defensively. “What, so I can’t be in a relationship until I’m a perfect person?” Erika backs off and holds up her hands a little. “Of course not!” she says. “The love and support of others can help you grow. But you gotta be functional enough on your own that you’re not just taking from your partner, you’re giving them something back, too.”

Their raft comes to rest on a sandy shore and Erika helps her past self climb out. “Listen,” Erika says. “I’m gettin’ close to 40 years old and I’m still working on (struggling with) all of this stuff. It’s hard. What I do know is that it is a gift to love anyone for any amount of time, no matter how long it lasts or what note it ends on.” Erika puts her hands over her heart. “When relationships end, whether it’s with a lover or a friend or a family member, learn the lessons you need to take away from the experience and treasure the good memories as you move forward in your life. You may be incompatible now, but at one point you shared something special and that is a gift to keep.” Young Erika notices Erika’s wedding ring glinting off her ring finger as she says this. The two start making their way up the beach they landed at. After a little while, Young Erika asks, “...Hey. So. That wedding ring on your finger… What kind of girl do we wind up marrying?” Erika says, “Ah. Right. I’ll be happy to tell you all about that if you’ll just follow me into The Bouncy House of Sexuality…” as she leads her younger self over to a giant inflatable bounce house a short distance away.

Love is fun! Love is powerful. Love is... not enough. A relationship requires more than love alone to be sustainable in the longterm. Middle Age Erika Moen clears up some of her misconceptions about love with freshly-dumped 20-Year-Old Erika Moen in this comic from the archive.

#Bisexual #Autobio #Comic

The comic starts with a younger Erika and her first girlfriend soaring through the air together with large angel wings on their backs. Young Erika is caressing her girlfriend’s face as her girlfriend embraces her from behind. Erika narrates, “The first time I fell in Real Love, I was flying high on a cloud of euphoria. It was my first Real Relationship and I knew I had found my Forever Soulmate.” “Until.” “Suddenly.” With a serene expression, Erika’s first girlfriend snips off Young Erika’s wings with a pair of shears. The next frame shows Young Erika right before she hits the ground, frozen in shock and disbelief. “She dumped me.” In anguish, Young Erika curls up into a ball on the floor. “The heartbreak made me physically ill, I had never experienced pain like this before.” Our current Erika steps into the frame to stand next to her past self, who has started crying alone. Erika puts her hands on her hips and looks at Young Erika with an understanding expression. “Aw, kid,” she says.

Young Erika sobs out, “All I did was love her and then she threw me away for no reason!” Erika reaches over to pat her younger self. “Well, honestly, you were kind of a dick.” “WHAT!” Young Erika yells back defensively. She angrily pushes herself up to glare at her older self, before pointing a finger at her. “Hey, who are you, anyway?!” Erika shrugs reassuringly. “I’m you. About 20 years in the future. Listen, you weren’t a dick on purpose, you’re not a bad person (and neither is she!). You’re just… young, you’re inexperienced with being a partner, and you’ve got some pretty unrealistic ideas about love.” Young Erika grumbles, “...Unrealistic ideas about love…? Love is love! What more do you need to know?” Erika takes Young Erika’s hand to help her get up. “C’mon,” Erika says. “Let’s you n’ me go down a trip down the River of Love.” Young Erika strikes a “Woe is Me” pose as the two make their way over to an inflatable raft with a paddle. She cries out, “What we had was MAGIC! Two souls combined! Such a pure connection can never be replicated!” “Go home, Erika, you’re drunk,” her older self responds. “ExCUSE you?!” Erika says, “Seriously! When you first fall in love, your brain is flooded with neurochemicals that make you high as balls.” An illustration shows a watering can pouring out a stream of neurochemicals including Dopamine, Serotonin, and Norepinephrine over a brain.

The stream from the brain continues to flow down to form a river that the two Erikas start to ride down in their raft. Young Erika leans over the side of the raft to run her hand through the flowing neurochemicals. She starts to cry. “What, so ‘love’ is just a buncha chemicals? LOVE IS A LIE!!!” (A note says, “Actual thing I actually said.”) Erika continues to paddle the boat. She replies, “Love is real, you’re just not in a sober mindset about it early-on.” “You think being in love with someone is this stationary state…” An illustration shows two people holding hands while enclosed in a glass cloche labeled “LOVE” with a heart for the O. “... When really it’s this living entity that’s constantly in motion.” The raft the two Erikas are in splashes around as they ride out a sudden wave. Erika calls out, “It never stops changing!” The water starts to calm. “Sometimes in ways that make you happier.” The water suddenly rushes down, dropping their raft down and forcing Young Erika to cling onto her older self. “Sometimes in ways that make you sadder.”

At this, Young Erika finally turns and looks back up at her. Erika leans in closer to face her younger self. “Two people can really love each other and still not be good partners together. Love by itself is not enough to keep a relationship afloat long term. A healthy partnership needs mutual support, mental and emotional nourishment, communication, negotiation, acceptance, boundaries, forgiveness… Love can’t fill all those roles itself. Sometimes the most loving thing to do is end a relationship before the things that don’t work rot into something dysfunctional or toxic later.” Young Erika angrily blows up at this. “... ‘loving thing to do’?! She HURT ME!!!” Young Erika flails about with spirals in her eyes as she continues to vent. “She betrayed me! She used me! She didn’t try hard enough! She never REALLY loved me! She threw me away! She’s a BAD PERSON! I hate her!” She sobs, holding her head in her hands. Erika moves over to comfort her. “Getting dumped sucks,” Erika says. “I’m sorry.” She brings her younger self in for a hug.
