“I exist in the zine/small press community, which has always felt more even keel to me, when it comes to creators of varied gender backgrounds. But I also think that there is something to be said about the fact that even though I am female, I present closer to male in my way of dress and attitude/confidence/outspokeness, so I am treated differently by my male counterparts in a positive way.” ThinkingWaySaidFactsFeltCommunityAttitudeFemaleDressesPressesMalesCreatorGenderBackgroundsTreatedMy WayCounterpartsKeelZines Author:Liz Prince
“I don't know what the comics community could do to make everyone feel welcome; I'm cynical and unsure if everyone can feel welcome, simply because so many people have conflicting ideas of what is welcoming, but I think that calling out creators and comic industry people who have harassed people and/or been abusive is a good first step. If we create a culture where those kinds of actions can no-longer go unchecked, then more people may feel welcome to participate and know that they will be heard if they experience unfairness.” PeopleIfsThinkingKnowsFeelsFirstsKindMayIdeasActionCultureCommunityStepsHeardIndustryCallingCreatorWelcomeComicCynicalFirst StepsAbusiveUnsureUnfairnessConflicting Ideas Author:Liz Prince
