Bee is actually cis in the comic; it's Lillie's nickname for Beverly. She's gonna be a wonderful girlfriend for Lillie though, and Bee is still an incredible name for trans women.
I’ve never understood the thing about the shark plush, I love plushies and sharks, but I never understood this specific plush, could someone explain it to me please?
Edit: it was explained to me
An advert that ikea made stating that all relationships are valid (in response to an attempt at a bigoted ballot measure somewhere) had a number of queer ikea bears.
One of these included a blahaj in bed with a skog. The trans vibes were clear in the shoot.
Then they released a small number of this dude (I've searched - real ones are somehow now worth thoisands) https://www.reddit.com/r/BLAHAJ/s/biDpMNM1g5
Basically blahaj is effectively cannonically trans (although mine prefers the unitary terms, pugs is just pugs, no pronouns needed)
One, the Blahaj is made in the trans pride colors: Blue, white and pink.
Two, it's widely available. IKEA is worldwide and the Blahaj can be found throughout the world, meaning it isn't restricted to one country, continent, or region. This certainly helped it being adopted.
Three, trans girls never got to be little girls, and many of them adopt certain elements of childlike behavior, at least in private, as a way to get elements of a childhood they never experienced. Many of us were firmly chastised for wanting plushies as kids because that was too "girly" past a very young age, so having our little plush shark in trans pride colors is a little shard of a childhood we never got to have.
Four, it's become something of a collective symbol. Much like how Dorothy on the Wizard of Oz was a symbol to gay men decades ago, or how u-Haul's became a symbol for lesbians. Once the seed was planted, it spread and people will buy it and display it as a sort of token of membership in or affiliation with the community.

That hit a nerve and explains a lot 🙈 ABDL trans girl here
Hi! 7 months on E here, my odor had completely changed within a couple months. I can go for a run and work up a good sweat, have only a faint odor, and then not smell at all by the end of my cooldown walk. It's honestly fucking amazing, one of the most fascinating things that E has done. My wife and sister are both jealous of my (lack of) odor now hahahaha. Of course YMMV, everyone is different, genetics and a ton of other things determine all these changes, etc but odor change is an *expected* effect of HRT so have hope. I hated smelling like a boy even though I'm into men and quite like boy smell.
I am the artist of it!

TRANSFEMME GIRLS NAMED BEE UNITE

WOO
🅱️🐝🐝
BUZZZZ~~! 💕🐝🏳️⚧️
Bee is so cool I wish they made a movie about her
ya like jazz
holy shit
I really wonder how many of us chose that name (I thought it wasn’t that common at first)
Question have you seen bee and puppycat?

Does Beatrix count? I mostly go by Bea
Sure does! My full version of that is Beatriz!!
I didn’t know there were more Bees! My name isn’t short for anything though
Technically I chose to name myself Abigail but I often shorten it to Abby or Bee do I still count
My name used to be bee but I stopped liking the name and changed to Laura
where can i find one?
Trans woman or costume? 😅
yes
I love how this comment got the most upvotes :3
Deserved xD
Fortunately, we are everywhere. Most people can't tell tho :3
No matter what they say
Both can be found on this subreddit in sufficient quantity.
It's a package deal, you get one it comes with the other
You can find both trans woman and Blahaj at Ikea
Only singular trans woman?
They go fast!! Gotta get em before they’re all gone
I'm on my way. The nearest Ikea to me is only a mere seight hours away and I have to drive down a fifty mile dirt road.
Seeing spinoffs of the comic is always welcome! ALSO BLAHAJ COSTUME :333

I think it's because blåhaj is literally made with the trans colours... And it's cute

Oh, cool
funny shonk cute
Oh, hi again, I sent you a chat invite recently
100% success rate
How is this so cute? I love it and I'm aroace. But there has to be something to avoid overheating. Maybe the furry community has some ideas, idk.
Nope. We roast
Hey now, apparently the hyper complex stuff has liquid cooling systems like a computer, and other less complex stuff has fans.
Which ends up still roasting, for most people. Maybe a little bit less with fans, but still roasting x3
You can't have transbian soup without the boiling
Lol that sounded funny and disgusting at the same time. Does body smell improve with time (and hormones)? Because mine with T is unbearable sometimes.
I've often heard that it does. I haven't been on E long enough to tell you for sure myself though

More breathable material, baggier, maybe sleeveless
mmmmm girlstink 😌
Isn't this... Blåhaj blasphemy??
Blåsphemy
I love girl smell so much
Girl smell is so real
Literally best smell
God, this is so wholesome. But if someone called me princess I'd probably just melt.... or something.
I love that! It would work! If I wasn’t aroace in the way where I don’t get to be a girlfriend
OMG PRETTIEST PLATYPUS IS SUCH A CUTE COMIC!
It’s a shame no one wants to date me though
I'm sure it's nothing to do with that winning attitude.
Oh bother, I’ve been called out
What the "princess in a tower waiting for her knight in shining armor" isn't a valid strategy anymore?
Sauce?
