(Trigger Warning for Transphobia and Graphic Content)

This one isn't sexy or funny, but it might help me sleep at night.

I have no regrets, but sometimes being a trans girl really, REALLY sucks...

(And to be extra clear, I'm saying transphobes wouldn't last two seconds, not the Laser Techs who have been very kind to me.)

Special Thanks to my beloved Transformister for driving me to appointments when he can, to my Test Readers for making sure I'm not crossing a line posting vent art, and to all of YOU for your love and support.

Sorry there have been so many short strips recently, coming back from vacation I've needed a buffer, I'm hoping to return to the usual content shortly. Thank you for your patience.

Not accidentally catching a stray and getting called a hon while the electrolysis tech is zapping your face 😭😭😭 Stay tough, Mira 💪😎💅🏽 All the love ❤️, this was super real, I don't look forward to living this reality 😅

Solar-G

Thank you for this. You’re right, it hurts so much sometimes but even so, no regrets. Not ever. 🏳️‍⚧️

The Transformistress

I'm so sorry Star I promise it's been worth it Sometimes the hardest things are the ones most worth doing

Rachel Frank

And even the support ends up being such an odd feeling for those of us who get support from various clinicians but have absolutely no chance of getting it from our families. (In my case, every single one of them is so across-the-board bigoted (to the point of being literally genocidal) that I know there's no point to even trying to come out to them. "Luckily," I'm middle-aged and my mother is in her mid-80s, so hopefully I can wait her out and ghost the rest of them.) It's not that the niceness from the clinicians hurts exactly, but the fact that even that's enough to be reassuring does, if that makes any sense.

James Plowman

Sorry you have to deal with crap like that. Hang in there, champ 🌟

Texbot

I think it’s really good to do art expressing your viewpoint. Came out wonderfully and hope the vacation went nicely.

Kría

The fuck? Is laser for pubic hair actually a requirement for srs? What bullshit is this?

Star Journeyfriend

Ah, don't apologize, I've known what I was getting into for a real long time, that's why I've repped for so long now 😭, but soon I'll find the courage to start, I'm sure 🤭 Thanks for always being so sweet and positive, Mira. You're the best :)

Star Journeyfriend

I think for most places it is because of the way they use/re-use the tissue there. Don't want hair to sprout up on the inside, right? 😅

LiliraunaLuv42

(HUG) I really had no idea. I really am sorry you have to go through B.S. like this. I really do believe you are genuine. I believe you are a good person and woman who speaks for those who can't raise their voice. I thank you for sharing. People are afraid of what they don't understand. I really wish that community, religion, and Individual belief didn't hinder people who feel like outcasts especially in their own bodies. You're beautiful Mira. Inside and out.

AshleyOtterson

“You have a penis so you’re a dude!” I have had a neighbor who said those exacts words to me. I’m sorry that you went through that too. But I want to say, “You’re beautiful, you’re loved and you matter!” I thank you for sharing this relatable comic but again, you matter! 🏳️‍⚧️❤️

StarGazer

Getting there may suck yes. But you have pure nerves of steel and are pretty much superwoman to commit to it. Besides, expressive art is always good to see to help convey your thoughts and emotions. But hope you had a amazing vacation

Giga

The important thing is to achieve your goals and dreams, and if those dreams do not hurt anyone, who are those ignorant people who say otherwise. You take it patiently, because although there are people who say you can't do it, there are other people who say you can do it. Much encouragement, Mira. 🤗🫶

DarkMagics

Damn. I’m sorry Mira. Sometimes this shit can be hard to deal with. It is for me at least. But your doing great! Keep your chin up!!!

LiliraunaLuv42

Well said, with anything Trans I always hope for the best and no one gets hurt. Each party walks away content.

Sad Dragon

"How would you feel if I called you t***y"uuuuh bad? You have the sole power to not do that? So don't??? Just wait... someday you will be a powerful trans witch and then they'll all pay! 🥺

LiliraunaLuv42

Last one, I swear. That's why I love your artwork and creative style. I believe it reflects your soul and it is gorgeous. I enjoy your soul reflection of your work so greatly.

BlackCat1989

Jesus, shit like this reminds me me to keep my mouth shut about my life being hard. I really hope life gets better for you, Mira.

The Transformistress

Your own struggles are still more than valid, we're all fighting our own fights, my fight doesn't make your fight any less hard ❤️

Aglamau

Courage, as a trans person too, I understand only too well how you feel.

Lady_Gendercide257

I glanced over this comment and I thought you said “keep your CHEST up”.

Kitsuie

It’s times like this which I could just come through the screen and make all those things go away… I wish I could do it for everyone in this community who is trans or had these feelings… I’m so sorry that you even needed to post this in the first place, but I hope this venting content helps you relieve some frustration and help you feel better soon. You’re the best gal out there Mira… don’t you ever forget that.

Kitsuie

This one really resonated with me… it’s good, it hurts, it’s cathartic… thank you Mira, so much.

Aralan Stradivari

For all the crappy people out there, who think that they are the sole arbiters of what is good and normal, there are just as many people who are loving, and supportive. Stay strong, Mira, because you’re amazing!

Blackstripes 08

You are stronger than anyone can know, your kind and brave and anyone who judges you for trying to be yourself has already proven they aren't worth listening to I wish you luck and hope one day I can have the courage to take that first step too

Yeoman

Virtual huuuuuug.

Cuban Bee

Firstly? Excllent work as always, Mira. You have such a knack for conveying mood and emotion ia facial expression. The loudest transphobes are the most fragile, easily set off by something like pronouns in a Twitter Bio. Furthermore they are creatively bankrupt, using the same helicopter jokes and Nazi memes so that they can bask in the canned laughter from their many sock puppet accounts. Their leadership is even more pathetic. Grifters like Ben Shapiro and Matt Walsh make their living on being Heels, their legacy doomed to be forgotten by the world like so many talking heads before them. Narcisists such as Rowling and Musk have destroyed their 'credibility' by lashing themselves to the transphobia dumpster fire simply because they can't fathom a world where they aren't the center of everything. Conservative politicians cry 'Groomer' while more and more get exposed and arrested for that very thing. To be hateful isn't a show of strength. It takes zero effort to be a hateful bigot. Truth strength is change. True strength is keeping a stiff upper lip in the face of adversity and making efforts to do something constructive about it. Thanks for indulging my little soap-box rant. Mira you have been a strong role-model for many of us eggs, including myself. Keep being awesoem!

TJBraddock

It does suck that people with such closed minds still exist in the world. But you know that you can take to heart that your family, your mister and all of us here are with you through thick and thin. Stay strong Mira.

Muffin Mythos

Sorry you gotta deal with bigots like that Miss Mira, but you're making so much awesome progress, and setting an inspiring example for everyone else that has to deal with these same struggles. You've been so strong, and you should be very, very proud of yourself. <3

Icarue

What are the second and third panels? I think the second is depilation... but I'm not sure. But I have no idea about the third. Just out of curiosity.

Violet Velvet

Big oof and fucking mood. Sorry you had to deal with that shit Mira. At the end of the day I'm proud to be transgender, and I'm proud to be able to share my experience with amazing people like you. Sometimes you just gotta be real. Keep your chin up girl. ❤️

Valkyrie

I know its hard, but honestly, thank you for posting this Mira. Helps to see someone else feeling the same way express the frustration.

Jenni Starr

Sending so much love. Sorry you have to put up with that bullshit. I know the road is long, but like you said, it's still so worth it. You're incredible and strong for doing all this, and I'm so proud of you! Big hugs!!!

Icarue

Thanks for the clarification!

Blaze

As a fellow trans girl. Pain. My razor never seems to be able to properly cut my hair, and hair removal cream never seems to work. And I’m just… so tired of it.

The Transformistress

I literally feel your pain. For face I wash first, then I turn my faucet to about the temperature of molten lava and fill the sink, run a face towel under it, and hold it to my face about a minute or two or until it stops being hot to get the hairs standing up, then immediately use a double edged safety razor and skin sensitive shave cream to shave, washing it off every stroke or so. Then, use a face exfoliator, then sensitive skin aftershave, then moisturizer. If you still have pesky beard shadow and wanna use makeup, you can use an orange ish concealer underneath foundation (hair follicles have a blue hue, orange covers that), or just some light colored concealer works in a pinch. Another option that takes care of pigmentation (beard shadow) and texture almost entirely for a few weeks to a month is sugar waxing, but I haven't tried that yet and I'm doing electrolysis rn so I can't really start that in the middle. (There are at home kits I've heard but if you can afford it I'd go to a professional just in case) All of this is optional, you're a girl no matter what and you don't owe anyone any kind of appearance, but I hope this helps you feel more comfortable in your skin!

Actrus

It must be quite formidable to go through all this with a supportive boyfriend, it's quite a chance! 🙂

M Robbins

Yep 4 rounds of full body laser, Good Times. The face/beard area took me about 6 passes. GOD i hate the upper lip zap to this day. Worth the pain in my opinion. :)

Wes Franklin

I really feel for ya, Mira. And it's really saying something that Cuba and China have better rights for transgender people than the US. I believe in you, Mira and you'll get through this with our support!

ZenoCoyote

Gosh that's a mood. Even tho I haven't been able to afford electrolysis yet. And went with a different GRS that doesn't need it cause I'm not good with pain.

TashaTheWitchQueen

Oh Mira, I wish I could give you a big hug. You crying and clutching your plush almost made me tear up. Thank you for this and I hope it was cathartic to draw these feelings. Just know we love ya Mira! 🫂 💕

Lady_Gendercide257

The idea that China actually has a human rights advantage of any kind over us is horrifying.

MiraMooch

You're strong as hell in going through such stuff gal. Vent away, because you deserve to feel safe and proud of who you are. <3

Baby Sweet

Oh sweetie, I'm sorry you've had to go through things like this. Wish I could hug you and take all that pain and take all that pain and sadness from you

ComicTF

Great stuff! As someone whose first art lessons came from an art therapist I'm happy to see people externalizing their feelings in their work. Making yourself vulnerable to the world is a sign of emotional growth, doesn't matter how messy or uncomfortable it can be (though your work is always very good ;3). Working it out on the page can also force you to examine feelings that you might otherwise push away, and in examining them you can understand yourself better. (Also, an hour to and from the technicians, my heart goes out to you.)

stormgirl

As someone who's less than a year into the wonderful mess of transitioning, I really appreciate your vent work. I love hearing your streams, and I love that you have a realistic tone to your irl related work. <3 <3 <3

stormgirl

also as someone with blonde/non-pigmented hairs all over I really feel the "x-more years of this" (the bottom electro is gonna be *A THING*

Val

Hey I know this was posted a bit ago but thanks for this comic. It's one of those things I keep hearing through every part of transition too and god is it frustrating. In a way it's just reassuring to know the feeling is shared and seeing it shown.

Melina

*Hugs* you’re gonna get through this, Mira, we’re all here for you, and there’s nothing they can do about it.

Undead_Emilia

how long does tomehting like that take?! and i hope you do well

neuracnu

It’s time I revisited this. Oddly enough, this actually convinced me to begin my electrolysis journey. I was actually feeling pretty tough and good about myself as well, putting up with the 9-volt La Croix taste in my mouth and everything, until they got to my jawline and lower and that’s when the ALL CAPS OWWIES kicked in. No more diet pokes. I’m coming out of these sessions with Gowron eyes and ready to fight a mofo, and this comic channels the shit out of that energy. You can do this. We can do this.

CJ

Hey, so I know I might be a bit late to this post. But I wanted to let you know that you’re just… amazing. Because of you, you made me understand that supporting the LGBTQ+ is okay. I support you through your journey. Remember, you are a beam of light that makes the entire room smile, and I mean that. You are special, never forget that.
