Baroness Camp Von Glamour the Lesbian Harpy is the next monster I’m doing, but I realised you guys were right and I hadn’t used the pansexual comic to address common misconceptions about pansexuality.
After several minutes of standing and appreciating the view Fred realised he had been very rude and not asked Reverend Tumbles invasive questions about her sexuality.
“So you’re pansexual right?” he asked while scanning the forest for other woodfolk. “Where’s your harem of non-binary, female and male lovers? I’d love to meet them!” he added, keen to expand his knowledge.
“Actually I’m single right now.” The Reverend intoned, face attesting that she had heard this question many times before. “Just because I’m pan doesn’t mean I fuck everything I see.”
And the flamboyant forest was silent in reverence of the truth reverberating through it, and all was good.
The End.
Fun fact – the Greek satyr god of Nature and Discord was named ‘Pan’. It’s often suggested that it is though the myth of Pan that we have the English word ‘Panic’.
Fancy meeting you here. <3
Oh hi~
Wait, do I know you from somewhere? Let me know if I do.
In fact, Pan was gifted with the ability to let out a shout that would cause all whom heard it to flee, thus causing panic.
It would have been great with just the ‘Actually I’m single right now’. The first ones were very good, but this one and the King Monarch one look like they are trying too hard. They should be more subtle about the misconceptions.
…I am confused about what has been subtle about any of them, and why that would be useful for what are essentially hilarious Public Service Announcements.
Why should they be subtle? They’re fucking funny and poignant. I like this one. It rings true for me and I’d imagine a lot of other people too.
Agreed. I have a very close and dear friend who is pan and it was the reason why I was sort of disappointed when the last one didn’t address most of the problems she’s faced (the “non-binary harem” thing starts to get old REAL quickly).
Rings pretty true, though.
A lot of people look at you like you’re a slut or sex-maniac if you identify as bisexual or pansexual. Or they assume the pansexuals just want any attention they can get.
The thing I heard most after having said I was bi (to people too dumb to even know what pan means..) was “ho so you don’t really know, you’re confused but hey, you like better pussy or dicks ? what have you tried, in fact you’re curious right, you didn’t “find” yourself yet, right ?”
Seriously…. *palmface* I didn’t get the harem thing though, that’s new to me! haha
I like those Monsters’ pages Tab, don’t want them to stop :p
Aw, thank you for the encouragement! I’m hoping to get a new minority monster up every friday now I have time to work on comics, though I appreciate suggestions about things I haven’t covered!
Kss: I know what you mean. I identify as pansexual (calling myself bisexual to people who don’t understand pansexuality)…and have actually had someone tell me, “No, you are not. You are bicurious.”
Tab! Thank you so much!
Oh I also have a suggestion : I like the shirts you’re making with the character on the front, but would you consider also adding the comic on the back? This way we could walk around looking fab AND being informative in a fun, non-preachy way.
Biev, that idea is FANTASTIC!!<3
I had no idea this part 2 existed! And this explanation is so… I need to make sure my pansexual friend knows about this one… We actually dumped a mutual friend (the one who introduced us even), because they assumed that pansexual = my friend was the village bicycle and called her a slut. We both went, “fuck that and fuck you.”
Also, I think Biev has a great suggestion about the t-shirts, hope you consider it!
Pan, the greco-roman god of spring and fertility was a satyr, and this pun is just too much
OH MY GOD! I love that you made this little comic strip. Some people think it’s sooooo easy to get in a relationship or find lovers just because you are pansexual. But it’s not! It’s freaking hard as all heck. Drop being nonbinary on top of it and it’s near impossible to find someone willing to even send a look your way (at least for me anyway). And being attracted to all genders doesn’t mean we are attracted to all people; that would be tiring, physically and emotionally.
PAN PRIDE FOR THE WIN!!!!!
