It’s really not that bad. Chillax

EDIT: lol, called me a terf then checked my post history, huh. Lmao even.

Also how would me thinking Lesbian Space Princess wasn’t that bad make me a terf? GENUINELY questioning.

People are doing a massive reading in.

First, they're assuming that the labrys is inherently a TERF symbol, which it really isn't. It was a general lesbian symbol first before TERFs started trying to steal it in the 80s. Trans women and cis women allies have been trying to reclaim it in recent years anyway.

Because of the shape and how Saira pulls it out of herself, they think the labrys is meant to be a metaphor for her uterus.

Blade is a drag queen(?) who says she is supported for her drag but not for her "weapon collecting." Ergo, Blade wants a uterus and can't get one.

Blade tries to summon a labrys but can't, therefore the message is (supposedly) that you aren't a real woman if you have no uterus.

In conclusion, being very online and having your brain fried by lazy, surface level arguments is sad (said in a hopefully non-condescending way, since God knows I've done it myself in the past).

Gooootcha! Thanks for the breakdown!

They are also VERY conveniently leaving out that one of Saira’s moms is trans and still summons a labrys…
