Born-of-star-flesh - Feral Enby

A drawing I made a month ago that I'm still struggling with, and maybe a lot of people would relate to as well.

For me it's about my gender in conflict with my body, about the struggles of being someone with a menstrual cycle, the expectations people have of me because I'm perceived as a woman, mental health, and my asexuality. And it's about anything you see in it too.

Please don't repost my art to other platforms!

Don't post my art anywhere please!

Happy international asexuality day! I'm proud to be asexual!!!

My goal for this semester is to maximize my whimsy. I'm gonna be the most whimsical motherfucker there is. No one can stop me.

Also btw trump recognizing only "the two biological sexes" harms intersex people too. I am a researcher of sex and it's affects on disease, and sex is far more complicated than "two sexes" and it always will be. Sex is multifaceted and there are far more than two binary sexes. Keep that in mind too. Don't fall into bioessentialism as you fight for trans people and intersex people.

Introducing my babies (aka the only OCs I ever draw) Val and Xander

Image ID at end of post

So some backstory on these guys, they're werebeasts! They don't transform into any specific creature, just go from human looking to humanoid. Xander is only half werebeast so they cannot transform as drastically. They've been friends since childhood and Xander loves Val so much, although she's demi romantic and won't reciprocate his feelings until many years into their adulthood. Val loves getting into fights and Xander constantly has to protect her.

In the main story I'm working with right now Val is 19 and Xander is 20. Val's full name is Valerie but she hates it. She's demiro and pansexual! Her official gender label would probably be demi-girl but she doesn't label it. She uses she/her. Xander rejects all labels for his sexuality and gender, they just regularly refer to themselves as "one queer motherfucker" they technically go by all pronouns but tend to prefer he/they

I made their refs like a year ago and forgot to draw them for a while ngl. But I wanna explore their relationship more and the world they're in so I'll probably be posting about them once in a while

Please don't repost my art to other platforms!

[image ID: image is a drawing of two humanoid characters yelling at each other. One is female with red curly hair and big animal-like ears. She is covered in bruises and cuts. Her text reads "Xander what the fuck! I told you not to get involved. You just have to be the hero." The other person is androgynous with black hair in short dreads. They have pointy ears and claws. His text reads "I thought they were going to kill you! Val, you can't keep picking fights you can't win." End of image ID]
