At first I was disappointed cuz no one’s shirts or hats said anything, but then I got to “tender top” and everything was ok again :D
I want a shirt that says Tender Top now. :D
i know. the shirts/hats are always amazing.
Scout’s having an off day!
“That only took three hours – a totally normal amount of time.”
Oh boy, that applies to a lot of things in my life.
I feel a great kinship to this comment.
“Seems a little outdated.”
Facts.
Aw, hon. Sometimes I forget that most people are straight. Most people *I* know sure aren’t.
RIGHT?! I forget all the time and then something like this happens and I’m like…wait…didn’t you get the memo that gender and sexuality can be fluid?
only three hours??? it takes me and my roommate WEEKS to build up the courage to ask somebody out… >.<
OH NO hahaha
Yeah, for me it takes three MONTHS! Moon in Taurus I guess…
Loved this.
It sometimes takes me just 3 hours to reply to people/friends I really like.
that is so true and I totally understand.
Oh Scout. I feel ya. Also everyone above me took everything I wanted to say! Great minds!
I’ve visuals of ‘tender top’ and ‘rough bottom’ high fiving with their boobs. Thanks for the inspiration!
this should 100% happen
Once again Scout is the cartoon version of me
is this based on me???
Yes. it’s based on all of us!
Ugh this is so real. And reminds me of Tegan & Sara’s new song lol.
Anna I’m going back and looking at all the cartoons you’ve done for Autostraddle and it’s making me feel better <3
<3 <3
Sometimes I forget straight people still exist, until I flirt with one.
I was discussing this with a straight girl once and told her “i just assume everyone is queer until proven otherwise”
And she was like whyyy. And i said “because everyone around me assumes everyone is straight”. She acted offended and said that she doesn’t. Girl you just asked me if i had a boyfriend…
The only way you can be offended by someone who assumes everyone is gay, is if you think it’s offensive to to be gay.
no she acted offended that I would think she assumes everyone in straight (which she kinda did)
Oh my god, I am Scout. Scout is me, and Al, and Sade, and Mey, and Rachel and her roommate apparently.
Yep.
This is a cute comic! I hope when I find a cute girl I like that I get the courage to ask them out.
