These two are GAY. They are PARTNERS. They are MARRIED. They decided to team up just so they could make it EVERYONE’S problem. No I do not take criticism.
This is purely speculation on my end, but I've noticed that it seems like people (specifically younger queer people, partially under forty) are so used to queerphobes indignantly saying, "you have the right to marry, what more can you want?! Why do you shove it down our throats?!" that they internalize the idea that gay marriage and other rights were only fought for for queer assimilation.
The push for things like gay marriage wasn't just "to assimilate," and especially after the AIDs crisis, you very well could watch your lover or friend or mentor die in front of you and have no recourse. No protections. No guarantee that you could even say goodbye. Learning that - as a young queer myself - hammered home how important these things can be. To get where we are now didn't happen because of the magical benevolence of the cishets. We fought for that shit. We died for that shit.
Again, this is speculation, but I don't think young queers (even me) will truly understand the scope of queer history. It takes effort to learn about this, but it is an effort worth pursuing every single time. At the least, we owe it to honour the people who came before us who have sacrificed so much. We owe our communities that much, at least.
Have you ever drawn woman? Id love to see some in your style!
LMAO, I have, but yeah, not really as much as I've drawn guys. As I mentioned in the previous ask, I just really love striking, prominent features, and women tend to be a lot more polished and round and... idk, perfect, in a way. How I draw is very messy and sketchy, and when I draw women, those sketchy lines tends to just make them look old...
If I could live off of just drawing whatever my heart desires, I would have been drawing way more women too. But everything I post online is made in my free-time, so I just draw whatever I'm most obsessed with at the time. And that just tends to be men 😅
listen 🧏🏾♀️ … give me two bottles of whipped cream , rainbow sprinkles , cherries , rope , extra virgin olive oil , a mirror , a pair of pink handcuffs , a jump rope , a sturdy alaskan king size bed , a blind fold , a paddle , two and a half hours , a strap…and elliott will come out a changed man…believe it 🤷🏾♀️‼️
Didnt give a shit about moonflower until I listened to masochism tango and had a (cursed) convo with my friend Dasmores237 (who helped with the idea of the shitty lil comic go follow theeeeeem!). Now we be cooking something up lmao.
Also I realise the lighting in the two main drawings look odd. I drew them separately and them added them together and I've been trying to get this done for so long idc at this point lol. Yeah the background is boring too but what can I say I'm lazy
Used reference for the left one, csnt find the image now, used slight reference for the right.
Sorry again for not posting in a while! I've got some non drawing stuff I wanna post soon so theres that
what’s great about the moth tattoo being kind of an unofficial bi symbol thing is that if someone doesn’t know then it doesn’t come up, if someone points it out and I don’t feel like talking about it I can just say I don’t know what they’re talking about, but if I want to I can just be like “yeah” 🙃
