Re-reading some time ago, this weird manga called Boku girl, more than a decade after first reading it when I was barely a teenager.

Image of page in here, to take less space

The amab main character,

(the eggiest of all eggs that have ever egged, (his body transformed fully into a cis girl's body "Against his Will"(a Loki did it))),

has been trying to process the conflict between his role as a man, against her Joy, and euphoria, and her own desires, all throughout the story.

During an aquarium visit, it's explained to him that Clown Fish can change sex. Pondering that she asks, reading from right to left: whether the fish are happy.

The series drew me in as a child, when I couldn't understand anything at all about me, but this page, years later, made me believe the validity and importance of asking the question, now that many other things are already in place in my mind.

Hit me like a truck.

So now at least some of my close friends, those that truly care about this question, know.
