I don't understand

"I don't understand why they say we're a threat, when it's obvious they're the ones willing to hurt us"

Avelyn a few months into her transition ^w^

I decided to take a break from the secuence I was working on because I've only done half of the lineart and it will take me around another week or two to finish it, so in the meantime I made this drawing that will have the sentence I wrote up there and in the background some of the issues we have to face as transgender people, like what TERFs, the far right, bigots, etc. make us go through. I'd stay a bit more to add the text, but honestly I haven't been feeling well since this monday so I think this time I should actually try to sleep more (and it's already late xD) (Sorry to all of you who have told me I shouldn't be demanding too much of myself and that I should sleep better)

I have some kind of arrythmia, my heart sometimes feels like it misses a beat, but probably it's because I've been working non stop the last weeks and I should rest more, so I hope I can publish this later today and then I'll take me a couple days to relax. Nothing hurts, I don't feel anything else, I'm well awake and conscious, I'm kinda worried about this issue with my heart beat, but after looking up on Google, it's probably nothing serious. Still if I keep having this inusual heart beating, I'll have to go to the doctor -n- But hopefully I'll feel better after sleeping.

Also, I'd apreciate it a lot if you can tell me if you like the phrase "I don't understand why they say we're a threat..." because I'm not a native english speaker and sometimes I'm not sure if I phrased it correctly D: also if you can help me think about some issues we may face just because of who we are and because people are bigoted or just ignorant. Transphobia, violence, assault, TERFs using their platforms to spread lies about us, rejection and harassment are some of the examples I have, but still I need to figure out how to add them in the background (only the words, I won't use images, screenshots of messages or any actual display of transphobia)

Thank you all for your support once again, and I hope I feel better this afternoon ^^ Sorry for working so much and still taking so long xD
