Ep. 19 – There's a Name For It (w/ fractal)
Manage episode 292675327 series 2577652
"Egg" is a term trans people use to refer to themselves before they realized they were trans. We strongly advice against taking a drink every time we use the word "egg" in this episode.
Join fractal and I as we discuss the history of El Goonish Shive's queer themes. What is it like for transgender and non-binary people to read EGS and why does it so perfectly reflect our own experiences? How did Dan handle gay and gender-nonconforming characters from the start? How does this webcomic address the intersection of LGBT experiences, neurodiversity, and trauma? Where could El Goonish Shive's queer themes go from here? There's a lot to cover, so let's get into it!
