High And Dry




















Beatrice was scarred early in life, when her brother came into the bathroom one day and held her head underwater as she struggled for a few horrific moments. It took months to coax her back into the bathtub, and even then she insisted upon wearing a cap and keeping her head above water.




















Beatrice still insists upon some sort of protective headgear at all times, and is rather lax in her shampoo schedule, but she’s mostly recovered. Meanwhile, she’s spent years completing various types of martial arts training. When and if her brother ever appears in the bathroom again, she’ll be ready. Oh, will she ever.

You Shouldn't've



















Alistair couldn’t believe his family never knew what he wanted on gift-giving occasions. Here he is the year he graduated from college and landed his first job. He’d spent hours in the stores picking out the perfect presents for everyone in the family, carefully selecting gifts that matched their personalities. And what did his mother wrap up for him? Some very girly pantaloon-like underwear. He was speechless.















And here’s Alistair on Christmas morning last year. He’s been disappointed by most of his gifts over the years, so now he's learned to hide that look of, "what the?" that he used to get. Still, he can't believe this is what his wife thought would be a great present. On her birthday, she's going to get a twelve-pack of toilet paper.

Who You Callin' Androgynous?



















Leslie couldn’t control his temper when people weren’t sure he was a boy, and many of his classmates at the Pennsylvania Dutch School of Hex Sign Painting were subjected to what Leslie liked to call the neck nick.




















Leslie still gets a little hot under the collar when anyone questions his sexuality, his food or music preferences, or his overuse of cologne, but now that he’s a little older he likes to think he’s refined the neck nick to more of a neck knock.

Fungool




















Dino was usually a good-natured guy, but if you told him he was wearing his sister’s shirt and looked like he’d spent way too much time on his hair, he’d get really ugly in no time.




















And here’s Dino just a couple of months ago, still getting pissed at anyone who doesn’t like his fashion sense or the way he smells. God forbid you say anything about his receding hairline, or the fact that he’s still snitching his sister’s clothes.
