This one goes out to the Blaire fans ;3
---
Here's the un-obstructed version:
(Please know that all of these flags are real ones i found on google. I put in a lot of research looking at ugly stripes for you ladies.)
Bushwalking = hiking/orienteering/backpacking btw. What's on the tin, basically. You walk in the bush.

Also: Don't forget there was a bonus page just before this one - incase you missed the First Thursday of the Month update!

the way i can literally name each and every one flag there lmfao 💀 + the lack of lesbian anything really hits close to home
rustyhearts
Notice also, no basic rainbow flag. Always obscured/saddled with some other identity.
Also actually very impressive you recognise all of these 😱😱
Valerie
Sorry but I hate Blaire
rustyhearts
This is allowed breastie, I promise ❤
Miss Moira
God, they’re all fucking insufferable.
Also is that the flag of Brazil? 😂

nyasha.kriper.2006
ah yes my fave gender brazilian
rustyhearts
I could see the QT gals genuinely not knowing what the Brazillian flag is. Or being too scared to correct it’s hanging out of fear it actually was some obscure identity flag.
Emperor has no clothes moment.

I think I saw a post where someone mistook the German flag (or a similar one) for a pride flag, but choosing one without any horizontal lines is kind of hilarious.
rustyhearts
Omg that’s too funny! And yeah, I can’t explain it. There was just something so entertaining to me about the Brazilian flag hanging on the wall of cringe 😂
becca
Oh, I’m furious at these people.
Sidenote: the Brazilian flag made me crack up
rustyhearts
The Brazillian flag is carrying the sanity of this page on its back 😂😂
Normie Lesbian
The fact there is no lesbian flag (not even the modern sunset one) and no basic rainbow flag…you are too spot on with this Rusty
rustyhearts
Oh how I wish I wasn’t U_U
Charly
Extremely thankful that I don’t know most of these 😭 also I loved Blaire but I’m starting to really dislike her.. stop they/theming your damn gf behind her back :/
rustyhearts
I hope you never learn them, breasite💕💕
Also RIP to your love for Blaire, U_U. No promises that’s coming back from here on out 💕💕
Wabber Bobble
What a terrible way to perceive & treat her own partner. I think that to some degree she’s being subtly bullied by these controlling little weirdos but I’m really not liking Blaire. She puts these people above Riley. It’s just so gross, sad, and creepy.
rustyhearts
Yeah, regardless of social pressure she’s really doin’ Riley dirty here 🙁
cuteychao
All this time I’ve been thinking Brazilian was my nationality and suddenly I find out it’s my gender identity. Didn’t even know I had one. Guess I can join QT and if they question me I’ll just show my passport. 😌
rustyhearts
Wishing you a safe coming out to your parents 💕
“Mum, Dad? I’m… Brazilian 😔”
marci
catch me coming out as brazilian in the qt club meeting
rustyhearts
💚🇧🇷💚🇧🇷You’re so valid for this 🇧🇷💚🇧🇷💚
anonymoo
I thought that was a Black Lives Matter flag until you revealed the unobstructed image 😡 I hate how they’ve latched themselves onto every movement that has nothing to do with them.
rustyhearts
One of the reasons I wanted to show the uncovered version!
It’s inSANE how many slogans they just copy paste trans shit over and claim as their own.
I’ve lost track how many ones I’ve seen :/
Green
THE BRAZIL FLAG LMAOOO
As an actual Brazillian, good to know I would be accepted in the QT club lol
My pronouns are Come/To/Brazil
(Also I hate how I recognize most of these flags. My tumblr gendie phase coming back to haunt me)
Green
Oh, and “”Irrefutable evidence of Jaden being trans”
The evidence in question: she has short hair and wears pants
rustyhearts
Don’t forget she doesn’t wear make up – not EVEN to cover a massive bruise on her face😱😱😱😱
rustyhearts
asdfahd your pronouns took me out!
So happy to know there’s so many Brazilian LB readers 🤗🤗
Sorry you can identify so many flags tho, sheesh. Glad you’re passed your gendie phase!
Minka
THEY GOT THE TRANBIAN FLAG BUT NOT THE LESBIAN FLAG???💀
also i pray for ur sanity after having to search up all of these🙏
rustyhearts
I am recovering well, not to worry❤️❤️
Mary
“Why a Brazilian flag?”
“To represent my ten Brazilian gender identities.”
rustyhearts
Not the 10 Brazilian gender identities!!💀💀💀
Nonnie
Nooooo, I want Violet and Jaden back ;__; These tifs are so insufferable.
rustyhearts
Aww!! This makes me happy honestly, I feel like the gendie pages are the ones that get the most attention (though I get it, more chaos). Glad you’re enjoying the Violet Jaden pages – they’re not done yet!
JaneTune
The lack of lesbian flag kills me 😭
Also what are those two flags with purple and white with man and woman symbol on them? I’m just curious cuz I’ve at least seen all of the flags there 💀
rustyhearts
These ones?
They are the “girlfag” and “boydyke” flags. Basically woman who wants to be with gay man, and man who wants to be with lesbians.🙃🙃 I remember first hearing the terms back in… 2012-2014ish??
Definitely way before I ever heard transbian/trans lesbian or gay transman. Kinda like how it went from genderqueer, to gender fluid to nonbinary.
I don’t remember a flag attached to the term, so I just picked one at random when getting flag references. There’s several modernized stripe versions too 🙃🙃
Ms. Clicker
…..aaaand we’re back to the circus act I guess. Also holy fuck, that club door is scary, that shit should’ve been an option in the new IT movie. scary, not scary, QT-club.
Normally I would think this representation is a little exaggerated, but when I remember the way TRAs theorize about people’s genders online it passess. They feel truly rightful and justified in their thinking, which is really worrying.
rustyhearts
Yes I’m afraid the clowns need more time in the spotlight, lmao.
I also sometimes worry I’m leaning too far into hyperbole – but like clockwork, everytime I do, I’ll come across an actual example of Gendies doing what I’m trying to satirize.
Iota Aurigae
You should have heard me say “oh SHIT” out loud when I scrolled down and saw the Great Wall of Flags. Looked over them and confirmed what I already knew, that there is no lesbian flag, not even the ugly four-color one that looks like a bunch of jellybean colors.
I’m curious how long that DNI list taped to the door is, and just what it entails. Likely the usual “TERFs/transmeds/everyone basically do not interact”
Nonnie
And the “lesbian” flag must be the “trans-lesbian”, aka “straight men” flag.
rustyhearts
Wish I could have seen the live reaction, truly! If any LB reader ever feels like recording a Let’s Read of LB, god I would be so down to check it out !!
The DNI list taped to the door is probably taller than Brick, LMAO.
bee
not the whole goddamn ten commandments posted on their door 😭
Brazillian Terf
NOOOOO WHY THE FLAG OF BRASIL 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂 PLEASE it is already enough to handle The gendies at my acadêmic Center, dont wanna fictional gendies too 🥺
Blaire's Wife
You’re making this really difficult huh
rustyhearts
the oppression of Blaire fans is real U_U
Sof
– Lack of lesbian flag or a plain gay flag
– They/theming two women, one of which is obviously uncomfortable with being called trans
The fact that this is very likely to happen. My old school actually, on pride month, only put up the trans, two spirit, and bi flag. Despite having a lesbian one…
Scully
Just realized I recently colored my hair almost the exact same color as Blaire’s 😳 wonder if she also uses Maria Nila lavender color depositing conditioner 👀
but actually since she lives in Australia I’m just going to assume her and the rest of the QT gang uses Brite Organix color depositing shampoos and conditioners to maintain their colors
Also I’m curious, what are the flags on the left towards the bottom, one has a flower in the middle and the other has leaves in the center?
Green
The one with the flower is the “sapphic” flag and the one with the leaves is the “achillean” flag.
rustyhearts
Ding ding ding!
rustyhearts
Electing you the president of LB hair dye lore because I have never heard of either of those brands 😅
Pam Dang
terrified of what that flag with the pink heart on it is supposed to represent…. 😬
rustyhearts
Wasn’t sure which one you meant so:
Leather Kink Flag
“Autosexual” Flag. Means you like masturbating over sex apparently LMAO.
Spirit
Thanks for clarifying what “autosexual” is because when I tried to Google it it said it was people who were passionate about cars…
werewol
omgggg the wall of flags has me cracking upppp (and the literal scroll of rules to read before entering, lol)
also blaire pls stop talking abt your gf like this, i beg of you (T_T)!! the whole group of them are being so condescending, i’m miffed on jaden and riley’s behalf >:o
RCS
Oh there’s a lack of the gay male flag or lesbian flag
Not sure if its intentional but would deadass think QT would call someone transphobic if they suggested putting up the flag.
(Case in point, I work at a uni and one of the gendie collesgues said I was bring “hostile” because I put the gay male pin on my pride lanyard)
Nonnie
I’m surprised even the “MLM flag” is not there. You would think these tifs claiming they’re gay men would use that aqua flag.
rustyhearts
Since LB is set in 2017 I tried to be consistent with flags (atleast more well-known/recognisable ones.)
That’s also why there’s no “”progress”” flag either.
In the spirit of MLM nonsense the “Achillien” flag is there tho.
Freqfem
Blaire’s grimace reminds me exactly of that old man grimacing meme lmao. I liked Blaire but the tolerance kinda ends with the really creepy speculation thing that is for some reason super popular in TRA circles.
Hate egg culture or whatever you wanna call it but jfc it’s so predatory and condescending.
rustyhearts
Holy shit you’re right LMAO.
If only she was grimacing at Brick’s behaviour, and not Riley’s very normal questions 😓
Spirit
Omg I thought “bush walking” was something WAYY different. ahahah!!
All I can say about Brick is…what the frick?
rustyhearts
Please do share- I got some VERY entertaining reactions from friends who also hadn’t heard the term 🤣🤣
“Oh so THIS is where the lesbians meet instead?”
*sigh*
From one flag to 56+ (I’m sure there are enough out there you’d need a few more panels). Its all quite depressing.
observation?
It’s interesting how the QT Club feels entitled to take up both their wall AND the wall belonging to the Bushwalking Club with their flags.
It really shows how aggressive and self absorbed they are
rustyhearts
Exactly what i was going for!
I wanted to show that they have little regard for the space of other clubs (because they see themselves as so much more important), and also for the physical space itself.
The fact that the QT club has taped stuff all over the walls and door, VS the Bushwalking Club only using the glass to tape a very simple sign was deliberate.
I actually got an interesting POV from a gay male friend who was exiled from his university LGBTQIA+ club and had every attempt at making a homosexual-only club shut down. When I showed him the club doors panel, HE interpreted it to mean that the QT club has financial backing from the university that the other clubs weren’t afforded. Which I hadn’t really thought about but think is pretty fitting.
GNC supporter
Then, let’s hit the finish line by introducing the creepy DUDE character who financially supports that QT nonsense.
The DUDE is: Politician in conservative christian party who strongly opposes abortion and homosexuality, and also “drag queen” pedophile who entered the school with impure intentions.
GNC supporter
And, shamefully, in South Korea, that exact same kind of creepy dude is the CURRENT PRESIDENT IN SOUTH KOREA!
Gender-confused anon
Question to the QT Collective: How do I figure out my gender identity?
rustyhearts
If you put her on the spot, Brick would likely give you an explanation like she did on CH11P11. And similarly the other gendies would go based off your clothing, haircut, and the amount of time you dedicate to shaving and make up.
I'm a gawt-damn woman!
This comic strip page was especially needed for me after the hard month I’ve been having at University. Because I recently dyed my hair, now everyone asks me what my pRoNoUns are, even though I’m a WOMAN! It’s gotten so bad when I was standing in the uni mess hall getting food, a girl referred to me first as a they instead of a she :/ It’s been really draining my soul :/
