I've decided to take a shot at making some of the tarot major arcana in TBFV theme. Not presently sure if I'll make more of these, but take a look!

Shen you so good to us

Deviant Plum

God. This one is so relatable. Nothing forces my gibbering brain gremlins to shut the fuck up quite like lifting weights 🥰

A.B. Ramirez

Decided to buy light pink nail polish bc of last two comics

DasBois1738

Yeah, the one where Shen was getting trained by the Wizard

ziggying

summoned….

Poppy

that means 22 has been unleashed to the public, doesn't it? (upon checking, not quite yet. but soon i assume) I fear how that'll turn out. Comic itself is good, I see we have the gym that changes your perception in action

RhysOfCourse

THE STRENGTH CARD IM CRYING 😭 😭 😭

Maeve McMahon

The strength tarot is extremely good

Brady Schaefer

Wait... does this mean that TBFV takes place in the 100× Gravity World or is she just traveling to different worlds' gyms??

Shepsi

I am sorry shen. But. The second card. Sorry. How. Can you not see that. Val Schlong. I usually don't have that of a dirty mind but really I needed 20 seconds to see this as a foot

Poppy

what is this meant to be exactly?

sinclairrr

SHARED UNIVERSE WITH THE GYM WIZARD SAGA?

Cryer

Okay, I know I should be concerned but: Damnit, I wish my self loathing manifested in me going to the gym.

Ahkrin

Oof as a non binary with a leaning transmasc gender expression I feel that so much. It's one of the reasons I go to the gym, to shape my body a bit more how I'd like it to be

HuntersFest

Dropping my prediction, that isn’t a girl but a likeminded male like audrey!

Iunius

Great work Shen

Madoka Vaughn

That strength tarot took me out 😭

NanoT

Audrey is so strong they are even impressing the girl from the weighted dimension!

ViolynnSoReal

The strength card confused me for a second 😭

Juice

Let’s fucking go!!!

Marie Skippen

THE TAROT! I LOVE THEM! MERCH IT SHEN! 🥰

Moiouimoi

I love you Audrey, you do so well !!!

Calvin M

I'm gonna cry

Alex

Full tarot deck when?

Jamie Sasson

Whether Audrey is trans or not, these are excellent depictions of dysphoria/dismorphic behavior. Really loving this comic, Shen.

Juice

Tarot cards go hard!!!

Sam Burns

Not the Momonga shirt on Audrey 😂😂😂

Lumi

I need a full minor arcana version of this! Especially after this depressing episode

KB

like this is exactly what my day looked like yesterday. shen you are too good

socks

is no one gonna talk about the suspicious interplay of light and shadow on Audrey's leg in the Strength Card. Its uh.. sus AF

Alice in Wordsland

Working out to feel comfortable on specific clothes... I've seen that before 😭🏳️‍⚧️

Bloopereel

I see your work girl! Make the bod you want, you're not stuck with the bod you have

opalgirl

shen please make them happy please just let her start hrt 😭💔😭💔😭💔

Arrrl

I think that's when she got inspired to train. By seeing Audrey. The rest is history.

Charnel_Heart

As a trans woman gym rat, felt. Felt x1000. This story makes me feel.

Callum Inanis

Had to take a second look at the Strength arcana, ngl

vio

Are you kidding me. Not the dysphoria hoodie!!!!!

StaleMotivation

Gym girl!! I loves her design, happy to see her here.

AUDREY DOESN'T SKIP LEG DAYS!! LESGOOOO

Mondflash

Audrey works hard for that nice figure!

Clipzandcatz

This is exactly how I feel at the gym. I love the feeling of looking in the mirror afterwards

Satan Veritas

Background girl scoping Audrey potential romantic rival?

d1000100

Audrey..... Again I just want to give her a big hug.

SkeetFromMcSpanky's

ok shen, what's the catch? ...becuz I dont want Avery feeling weird anymore man🥺🥺

Dane Leoniak

Currently in a chokehold by this, thank you.

Eduardo Gil

What exactly is going on in the strength card lmaoo

William cannon

The gym fairy is always there XD she is in every single gym in existence at the same time

Tyler Hildebran

I really like the fishhook word bubble! That's a clever way to show that the speaker is both technically out of view and still visible to us!

Void

What is it with Audrey and attracting round glasses girls lol

Adamai

That leg day looked fierce

Sketch

A guy can't aspire to get a lil thic? I sure am

Miss Venom

I mean, not really. Audrey very clearly wants a more feminine silhouette and when coupled with the last two posts it pretty clearly implies gender dysphoria.

Ashlyn Crowe

Wow, I assumed the chuds had all moved on from Shen.

Liz

100x GRAVITY ALT-UNIVERSE GIRL??? That must be a super good gym to tavel all that way.

Gadhrach

Depicting women with leg hair does my heart good.

Nerd Detective

Aww, poor sweet bean. :( Audrey is really going through a lot behind the smile that Val sees.

Asra

Its so weird, heartbreaking yet refreshing to see Audrey having an hard time mentally with negativity since we mostly see him positive i can’t handle it my baby 🥹🥹🥹

Panda

Buff Audrey ftw

esusa

is it just me, or does audrey's left leg in the strength card also look like... something else?

Monika

Ale houby

Mimic

Nope. Even if not transgender, this is a gender non-conformity.

Aleks Day

The tarot is flawless Also we feel Audrey so bad

infrarad

The "who am I kidding" drawer grows ever fuller....

R. K.

Yea I agree w. your assessment. Audrey's quote from last post was "A virus that turns you into a man. A terrifying concept". But who knows, I gave the benefit of the doubt before this post cuz the title of the series is "THE *BOY* FROM VENUS". Mb. Audrey just wants to feel & be perceived as more cute & feminine yet doesn't feel gender dysphoric w. being a male.

Chad L'Archevêque

I haven't seen anyone else mention it but I love that the speech bubble is in the mirror on that second panel What does this imply for the laws of this universe

Tavernacle

My read of it is that in presenting feminine throughout most of his adult life, he's been told by a lot of people that he 'makes them feel safe' in a way other men do not, i.e. Val dropping her 'moid' speak over time. He consequently attributes that to his own femininity, rather than him being sweet, empathetic and fun to be around. In Audrey's mind, if he doesn't chase some perfect image of femininity rather than simply being feminine because he likes to be, he's failing the people he loves.

Splinter00S

Literally came here to ask why dog-Val has a big schlong

Sirius Face

What an excellent thing to wake up to!

John Bronson

I love the speech bubble double in the mirror!

chioreo

I love all of this

Samantha Jackson

Oh, hitting the gym as a way to try and exert some kind of control over a body you hate... not a relatable trans fem experience at all... ha ha...

Poperachie

I think Audrey was hitting 169-180 on legs, counting the plates Audry has some crazy legs

Bacon

Never in my life have I related more to a character than Audrey, this comic has me emotional every chapter

WineGodTG

Most cis gym goer

Connor Kronk

I love the val arc leading right into the Audrey arc, and it was such a smooth transition.

rhys's puff

yah audrey.... i get u my friend!!!!!

Feather Poirier

THANK YOU FOR PRESERVING THIS I was so sad it got changed before I could see it

Limi

That's what I was wondering!!

Surprised to see the girl from the super gravity world at a regular gym lol Also yes Shen, please make more if you want 🥺🙏

Srcsqwrn

The demons! They attack me like this as well! 😭

YYEEEAAAAHHHHH!! LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO 🎊 🎊 🎊

kurona7

1000×s gravity world girl! And hmmm we love the tarot card of strength jaja. That neck is getting craned up!

Jettson Lee

Yes I do actually live for this shit

Alex Kelsey

Wait did Audrey just surprise the 100× gravity girl with her leg workout

Raven Singing

Did I miss it?? I MISSED ITTTT 😭😭😭

Mo

Twas a great time to randomly check my phone for a new comic.

Em

100x Gravity World Girl!

Theo Howe

I was very confused by it I wont lie 😭

Jesse

Uhuhuhuh

Averyy

the genuine cute gym fit to big tshirt experience is universal i fear

Maeve_is

Fuck now i want the whole Tarot-Set, in Print, with metallic edges😭 Shen! Please do it. I'll throw money at you!

Luke Zahalka

Ugh, Audrey keeps getting more and more relatable! For the record, I am a Transwoman and this is literally why I train for marathons. A.) Running around in a sports bra is Euphoric B.) The fact that extreme long distance running leans out the upper body while shaping up the lower Audrey went to the gym to do: Leg Press - Thighs and Glutes Hip Abductions - Hips Stair Master - Whole leg, with big focus on Posterior Chain Yea...

Nuki Chau

Audrey you are valid and owe the world nothing. live your authentic life ❤️

Samantha

Lmao I can't believe there are still people here trying to say Audrey is cis. Take it from a trans woman. Audrey shows clear, obvious gender dysphoria. The amount of reaching you have to do to find a cis explanation for this is insane. This bitch is trans.

Sayori Biggest Fan

How strong is Audrey to peak the interest of that anomaly oh my God

Hal 🔆

feeling better about your body after you work out /exercise is relatable for all genders :3

Hal 🔆

I'm a cis woman and sometimes I'll try to look cute in whatever fit and I'll just not feel good about my body. go work out, come back feeling way cuter/hotter ❤️

Samantha

Probably will at some point today. I keep refreshing, because I'm not sure I'll be able to fight the urge to say "i told you so".

Samantha

Sure you could explain it that way if this comic was on its own, in a vacuum. Taken together with the last few? It's one more clear sign of gender dysphoria

MaidenOfAir

Oh, Audrey :( I get it :(

Mason Sextro

I fear Audrey is using the gym as an unhealthy coping mechanism for their dysphoria. I like how subtly it’s presented here.

i_draw_sp

audreyyyy you're already amazingggg 😭

The Skateboarding Maid

I cannot wait to see where this goes, also a BFV tarot deck would fix me

Marcie Hadsall

what if the boy from venus never referred to audrey?

Apollo

Ah, I see the rage-fueled exercising to try to get towards the desired body isn't a unique experience....

Waity5

Good day

Felipe Motta

Understanding the existence of body and gender dysphoria but not understanding that its specter is way wider than you can perceive is wild.

Xennded

Audrey is not a Manic Pixie Dream Person I'm so happy to see more of what he gets into on his own time while also nurturing a relationship with Val

Bargain Bin Catgirl

No exercises to strengthen the arms, but a lot to strengthen the thighs and gluteus. Pear-shaped body wanting to be an hourglass body.

Dedrick Nafarrati

Yes, we can all experience body dysmorphia without it actually meaning that you are trans. However the sum of the 3 last chapters, and the gender euphoria that Audrey clearly feels while presenting female, is enough to declare not a cis explanation

ari

can we all just agree that body dysmorphia is not a Trans exclusive thing? gals, why can't my boy just be feminine? why does he have to be an egg? femboys are real godammit.

jacw212

THE SHEN CINEMATIC UNIVERSE IS GROWING!!!

ari

im sorry if this comes of as mean. im also a gender non-conforming person and i just find it really annoying when people try to convince me that I'm Trans but just have haven't dug deep enough and realized it yet. like no, there's so many genders and I picked mine. it's sad seeing the same thing happen to a fictional character I relate to. 😔

Nick Rodammer

Took me a moment to understand the speech bubbles in the second panel. I like the tail showing where it's coming from, just felt a little like there was another one off to the side I was missing.

Jemma Nelson

Yeah, the wizard gym coach comic (also by Shen)

Chim

Audrey with temperance would be great as a tarot too 💚

Kaiselherzt

Good to know that Audrey doesn't skip leg day

Jo

In that last shot, Val looks like a cat from Mewgenics

Chim

Ohmygod she's here!!! And is impressed by Audrey's leg press! 🥰

Alyssa Herzog

Shen, whatever comes out of this series, know that you are supported.

Poppy

nope, this is what it originally looked like. was changed very very quickly

Poppy

it has now. resist your urge if you can

Ben Robinson

Honestly, I can relate to this comic a little. While I run a lot I feel like I could have more muscular arms and try to use the machines but it still doesn’t feel like I’m making progress. Sometimes people come up to me and say I’m doing it wrong and should put more weight on it and that makes me feel like I’m being judged or something.

balaphon

Shen, without exaggeration, I would shell out $250 for that tarot deck

ChillOwl0

Really hating all the label arguing tourists. Just sit back and watch what shens cooking. You don’t need to freak out and argue labels constantly.

Squiggy

I need Audrey to be ok x

urpo

audrey is so real for this

DrMagenta

I'm not sure I understand what happened here. What made Audrey so pleased in those last panels? Wouldn't intense exercise make them even more masculine, unless they are on E/T-blockers?

5099 5618 v2.0

Makes sense. She looks like a ballet dancer, and they're all basically peak human.

Capt_Jeb

love the tarot, i’d love to see more and who you assign to each

That Harper Gal

I am just sitting here munching popcorn while tears of anguish slowly stream down my face

Maeve Awen

BFV TAROT YES PLEASE 🔥❤️‍🔥

Dahlia Grayson

I absolutely love the depictions of gender struggles in a more fluid manner as opposed full blown trans or not. It's nice to see exploration in more of the demi related areas of the spectrum or just how dysphoria affects those who are more fluid.

TauriTau

Ok, what is she from?!?

Paulrubens

Cheering on Audrey, you can do it!

Ezra Marin

This one hurts a bit

CloudBun_

omg it’s the girl from my fitness coach is a dark wizard! 🥹💖

Silvia

listen, while it is possible that Audrey is a feminine boy, the experiences we see are almost the exact way that many trans people (myself included) are dealing with gender dysphoria. as someone else in the comments said: "that bitch is trans"

Sofia Marchini

Ok but now I’m craving more tarot, like maybe one of temperance with Audrey as the winged Angel eek

hirntod

The tarot cards are so good :3

Abbi McNeely

I know they're just a fictional cartoon character on my phone screen but please tell Audrey they're very pretty, they deserve to hear it and have clearly been working on looking prettier 🥺

cleafang

Those leg machines are pain

Bingo Goat

There are too many people being forceful about Their Interpretation being the only Right Interpretation of a fictional character, and believing everyone needs to think the same way they do about it. Stop it. Talk about and discuss your interpretations and the feelings those elicit, but for the sake of your sanity and everyone else's, don't act like it's the only way it should be thought about. It's foolish.

Charlie & Taryn

You can be the right gender and still want a body that feels like you 🤷‍♀️ hence how i ended up a bearded lady lol

Jean

Delusional man sees phalluses everywhere

Über Anne

I read it as they're specifically doing exercises to tone and give them more shapely legs and thighs. A lot of trans women will specifically focus on lower body workouts.

Cley Faye

People in the comments: *looking for explanations, analyzing stuff and all* Me, lacking knowledge of absolutely everything: "oh, exercising. cool." Ah well, I don't need to get all the subtext to enjoy this. I just want it to keep going.

Evelyn!

Trying to look cute to “who am I kidding” is so fucking real

Mfr

I subscribed just for this bro you better make it a physical comic when it’s done

John Shurina

I think it's on the Strength tarot card? Audrey's foot comes out beneath Val.

Vexo

Came here exactly for this reason! Very curious if intentional callback

John Shurina

But why does he feel bad shaving his face in the morning and imagines his facial hair as worse than it is? Why does his nagging internal voice call him Adrian?

Pingrey

Thats exactly who it is yippie callback i love that comic

Ben Robinson

Now I’m less sure. For me it feels like coupled with the previous 2 comics Audrey wants a feminine face with a muscular body. I could see both a “twunk” brand of femboy and a GNC person feeling some dysphoria for not getting that. But again I’m just gonna keep tuning in for future information.

TJ

you gotta do a character q&a or sometjing

Gregina Bogosian

Cis male body builders don't skip leg day. But the pose in the first shot, and using the hip machine, are very female.

Gregina Bogosian

But then why does Audrey present feminin in the first place?

lateef

Yah this one broke me inside

Wait, did you make the dialog bubble diegetic?

😭This is too relatable I almost cried

Mightfo

I've always thought of Audrey as both trans and possibly a femboy(or similar GNC), simultaneously. GNC people can have euphoria and dysphoria too. This is why theres butch women who have top surgery, for example, which is not a new thing at all. The difference between "is this person a trans person" and "is this person a femboy/gnc/butch woman/whatever" isnt a matter of "Do they have gender feelings or not?". A huge % of the latter *do* have gender dysphoria, euphoria, etc based around their non-cisnormative gender needs. Frankly, I'd consider most gnc people to essentially be a form of trans that dont change pronouns(or dont change pronouns much, ie she/they), the line between those types of GNC people and nonbinary people is vanishingly small. My hot take is that those GNC people are basically nonbinary/trans because the fundamental thing about those categories is having non-cisnormative needs and non-cisnormative selfidentity, not "did your pronoun change or not?", which makes this type of conversation frustrating and makes "Is Audrey a femboy or trans?" a question where "both" is another answer. So a lot of the problem i've had with "Is Audrey gnc or trans?" arguments is they seem to often be sparring over a misunderstand what the actual differences are. While many GNC people dont have significant gender feelings, a huge percentage(i would say most, in my experience) do. The thing is that femboy/butch etc are broad categories, not monoliths.

Avian

...There is, and this is coming from a trans woman, I know a trans man that wears a skirt and dresses, I dress masc as fuck on purpose, some people are GNC and NOT trans. They could be trans, but they could also just be a little queer, we need to stop putting people in boxes preemptively.

Shark Pubby

So cis people don't work out so that they're more comfortable with how they look??

Shark Pubby

I mean, there are cis people who feel body dysphoria, that's not just a trans experience

sparkles✨

A lot of media with characters like Audrey tend to skip all of the struggles. It hurts reading these but it's also very important for it to be shown. It's helped me learn a lot about myself too, actually 💖

Flutter Shy

the infinite torture continues

TheBigGal

Mr Lenny

Man, I'm gonna really love this series I think. And god, I can already see the discourse around this being heinous.

Murry Soothsayer

Its interesting that really nothing changed but hes happier at the end than the beginning. Like a subconcious thing is going on there.

Spencer Bryant

first two panels are devastatingly relatable

Murry Soothsayer

gender and sex are different things my friend. you can be GNC and still be cis. You can experience dysphoria and still be cis.

Curbature

Thank you so much, I knew she looked familiar!

JamJam :3

I think it’s probably unhealthy to say “yup! This character is undoubtedly a trans woman!” When there IS such a multi-finality for GNC and trans individuals (and the character has referred to himself as a guy). I think it’ll be interesting to see how Audrey views his masculine traits (possible dysphoria) in relation to his manhood, and I’m excited to see how Shen writes Audrey in an archetype that I haven’t seen too often before :> so ye, take my money, I’m begging you

batsarethebest

tbh i thought it was obvious that going to the gym is clearly not helping despite Audrey thinking it would, and realising there's something deeper.

MitchellTF

Everyone, we need to support Audrey on his journey. Or her. Or their.

magpie_femboy

i feel like everyone here is trying to pin an identity on audrey, saying if they are cis or trans, but i feel like the bigger point is that identity is an intrinsic response to the world around you, and only audrey knows if they are trans or not, and it is okay to be either. i feel like this comic is trying to show how the world can be judgemental of gender non conforming identities, and by trying to figure out what audrey is, you are proving the point. buts thats just my interpretation lmao, love this comic good work!

JamJam :3

Also MOMONGA AAAAAA :3

Jo Atkins

This was a wonderful update, thank you

SyrPrize

A guy whose masculine features cause a deep pain and sadness, whose masculine name is a source of pain, and who passes in every way as a woman is almost certainly a trans woman. Not someone who just wants to be more fit

ALonelyWaffle

Honestly, this is literally how i remember managing my dysphoria before getting on hrt, and it's really cool to see that experience shared elsewhere, even just through a silly webcomic boy(?)

scissorwizard

Strength card got me howling ily shen

Asra

I agree i feel like the character of Audrey and his struggle is affecting the way i go throught life physically but also mentally shen is doing such a good job 🥹

Sammy

Where Dark Wizard

link

I enjoy everything about Audrey and the many interpretations people have of him. Whether or not he’s trans, I appreciate finally seeing myself in so well in a character as a man myself who dresses more feminine. The experience of ‘tricking’ people, trying to build genuine connections while feeling like the person I’m trying to connect with is being tricked by my outward appearance. The guilt and shame?? I never thought id see such a personal experience illustrated so well. I wish Shen Comix was real so he could make more.

ProblemPal

.... okay maybe not quite about me

sparkles✨

I agree with Avian. It's so infuriating finally having a comic like this that represents dysphoria and gender struggles so well, just for like 90% of the comments to try to classify the character!! Like, they need to just let it happen and see what they end up being instead of forcing what they feel on the character. This happens IRL so much, too. There are a LOT of GNC people who are told "you're just trans and don't know it yet", but don't identify that way!

Nike Koufuku

I mean those can absolutely have trans readings. As a trans guy I definitely can absolutely say that dysphoria makes you feel like your pre-transition body is more masc/fem than it is and I'd assume that the internal voice could just be dead naming Audrey as it is already calling her a perv for wanting to be seen as more feminine.

Amanda

Darknyss

"boneless yuri" my fuckin *sides* you bitch lmfaoooooo

Darknyss

That's actually a good question in more ways than one. I reread the entire thing cuz I just subscribed to see the bonus panels, and early in, he tells Val that his actual name is Adrian, and that kids teased him by calling him Audrey, leading to him reclaiming that name so it could not hurt him anymore. If that's so...like you said, why would his inner critic then not call him Audrey like the kids did long ago? Like I'm all for him being gnc, just a feminine boy, a trans girl, whatever he (and by nature of being the writer, Shen) decide. But good grief, as a trans girl, this couldn't *possibly* hew closer to the experience of how I felt shortly before coming out.

Darknyss

I'm a big fan of the speech bubble being reflected in the mirror.

Audrey please love yourself you are great!!

Gibdos_Rupees

I believe in you, Audrey ❤️❤️❤️

The door to "Audrey is just a femboy" has officially closed.

Zack Bowden

Yeah, absolutely not, lol

Calypso Johanns

Once again, another extremely relatable comic from Audrey’s perspective, “who am I kidding?” What my brain is constantly saying to me

Emma

Yeah, man, okay, you got me with TBFV 22, have a dollar. I just had to know after making me cry from how real it is.

Lex Indigo

Benefit of Patreon: ability to have loving fans tell you about unintended nsfw readings to save you from the entire hateful internet yelling at you <3

Heyyy shen. Do you have something you wanna..get off your chest there bud?

Who is? Ive not seen any other comics from shen before

MaB

SHE is here! There are other worlds than this!

Gray L.

I wish I had motivation to go to the gym. Idk my mental health hasn't been letting me do anything but seeing Audrey live their life makes me feel happy Eta: I realized this sounds like super pitiful, I'm okay, I'm just dealing with some health stuff.

I don’t think I’ve related to a comic so much in my entire life

Christopher Wolfe

As a straight cis male who considers himself GNC it’s nice to see a male character who has an inner conflict regarding gender presentation. If Audrey ends up being trans in the storyline that’s totally fine, but I’m enjoying the character as he’s currently developing.

Ben Liddle

Audrey is literally me

Diana Londoño

I NEED THIS TAROT PLEASE ACTUALLY SELL IT

Roxanne T

Poor Audrey 😭 I hope they feel safe enough to lean on Val. Co-op mode!!!!

Bob Gentar

I'd buy a full deck, but I know its a lot of pressure to draw all 76 cards. The designs are so fun though!!!

Vivian

oh my god id buy up a tarot set immediately

Tony Lewis

I'm a cisgender guy and I myself feel sad for Audrey and I am rooting for her and Val. Audrey is only a person that wants to present herself as feminine and live authentically as a trans woman if that's Shen's plan. Love to learn more about Audrey and ultimately see if Audrey can get all the help she can get with Val in her corner.

yeahhh you caught me hook line and sinker. enjoy your dollar a month... but to reiterate what i said on other social media: this depiction of dysphoria + dysmorphia is so painfully raw and clearly personal, and i just really appreciate the depiction of it. like, regardless of how audrey chooses to transition/not transition, i think a lot of us forget how similar dysphoria can be for so many of us? so it just means a lot to see that depicted. as a day-oner, of the boy from venus, im really REALLY excited! also: i love the parallels in how both of them think about perversion, how from valerie it comes from a place of fear, and how from aubrey it comes from a place of self loathing (dysphoria). good comic! excited to see what comes of it!

I heard the deep "who am I kidding" deep in my soul. Audrey's got quite the husky voice. Also nice to see Val with the unshaved leg. Real.

Also I like tarot cards a lot. I usually use a playing card deck but as a seer I can still use tarot regardless.
