Either way, tattooing someones bust on your bust isn't a great move.

I thought they were both female? Somebody better at navigating the mess that is tumblr should investigate for me.

This is why you don't assume gender in 2017.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 3

Author of the comic confirmed it's two women.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I think the story works equally well if the sailor is male or female (or whatever).

Mermaids are thought to drown men in the sea. She's a woman, maybe it's that?

8 years ago | Likes 13 Dislikes 1

Yes they are :)

Ah, imgur. Post about gender fluidity: "THERE'S ONLY TWO GENDERS!" Insinuation that these are lesbians: "WHY DOES IT MATTER"

8 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 1

We don't hate gay people, we're just afraid of one of the four states of matter. Solid, gas, and plasma are fine.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

We should elect an ambassador or explorer or something to go out and investigate stuff in Tumblr. First, any suggestions for the name?

But..but....the mermaid was looking at the chest tattoo and his/her chest had no boobies. Where are the boobies??

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 3

https://imgur.com/Hpk9637 There actually is a small line indicating a breast. Although I'm not sure why the artist made it so hard to see.

8 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

I thought that was just pecs, but if the artist says dude's a lady dude's a lady.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Probably to emphasise the tattoo? Small boobs as well, the way she's lying makes boobs flatten outward sometimes.

In the end, does anything really matter?

I put my trust in you

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

No, but I was curious. I'm a little confused as to why benign curiosity is being chided on a site obsessed with the "two gender" argument.

I don't see anything chiding in my comment. https://media.giphy.com/media/gPTTdOsD3lEQw/giphy.gif

Well perhaps it matters because there's also comments on this referring to the fact the protagonist can't penetrate the mermaid.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

That's not very inventive.

Pretty sure the human is just an effeminate guy.

The author tagged it nautical lesbians.

They have breasts in a few shots. It might just be the style of the shirt, but it it looks boob-like.

8 years ago | Likes 15 Dislikes 0

Idk, the humans shirt was wide open to show off that chest tattoo and there weren't any titties.

8 years ago | Likes 10 Dislikes 4

You can see the curvature of them

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

You don't know how titties behave without a bra do you

8 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 1

They spread apart and get tucked under the armpits? If that's the case, then in hindsight one should've worn a bra more often.

I'm a chick, and I thought that was a male chest.

Don't mermaids engage in mating with their victim before that, like some insects? For at least, he'd go out "with a bang"

If you look at the panel where she shows the chest tattoo there is no boobs

8 years ago | Likes 10 Dislikes 4

I think there is act. Not that it makes much diff. But there's a shadow lines under the side of the shirt indicating she's a lady.

Look at the chest tat panel carefully. There's a tit. Plenty of women have a lotta space between, especially if they're small-breasted.

The chest with the boobs on it? Because that sailor has boobs. I have some of my own; I know them to see them.

There are mermaids in this? Pretty sure it's fantasy and historical accuracy has nothing to do with it.

I've heard the same before, but there are some pretty famous women pirates.
