this was
my final project for a history course I took this past semester. I had
no idea how physically tiring (and painful!) making a comic with 100%
traditional art was (cutting screentones! not easy!), but I’m very happy
to have had the chance to make it.
a note: 同志社, Dōshisha, is the name of the university. In Chinese, though, 同志 has the connotation of “gay (person), homosexual”
Lala is a term similar to the English “lesbian”
The dialogue of the people at the women’s meeting is quoted from Queer Women in Urban China by Elisabeth L. Engebretsen
if
you want all of the bibliography and historical notes that go with this
comic, then you’re in luck! I will be putting it up with the 8 pages of
notes on GumRoad for pay what you want, $1+. If you just want to
download the comic, it will be pay what you want $0+
