ENGLISCH: A comic (in German) I made in 2017 during the comic conference “Zerbröckelt und Geklaubt”.

DEUTSCH: Comic Transskription für Screen Reader folgt bald!

Intersex rights are human rights!
Listen to intersex people and what they have to say!
Treat them with respect, their experiences are important and valid!
And stop surgeries on intersex babies!
Thanks.

⚡I HAVE A PATREON NOW⚡
Hey everyone, I just launched my Patreon page!  https://www.patreon.com/bopolena I’ve been working on this secret project for months now! I’d love to build a community where we can get to know each other more closely and communicate more often and more privately.

I also created some nice tiers which allow you access to special content and artwork. (They are listed on the website.)

I also have a SPECIAL GIFT for every one of you who becomes a patron within the first month! It’s a cute sticker I’m gonna send to you in the mail. (I’ll post the sticker design tomorrow, but you can already check it out on my Insta Story!)

Please consider supporting me. It would mean the world to me! And it’d help me to create more body positive art in the future. Thank you!

Hey y'all!
You know what? In only 29 days starts this year’s #inktober!!! And this time I thought of something special! I want to do a body positive inktober challenge!!! I even thought of inspiring words for every single day in October. And you can join, too!!! You don’t have to stick to the daily themes of my prompt list, though. As long as you draw body positive art for Inktober you can be part of the BoPo team!
Just use the hastag #bodypositiveinktober so I’ll be able to find your artwork. I will even feature up to 10 different participants at the end of October!

Are you thinking about joining the challenge? ✏ Tell me! And share this list so more people will be able to join!

Intersex is beautiful. You are prefect the way you are. You don’t have to fit into any of society’s boxes. Don’t let yourself be limited by the close-mindedness of others! You are strong and awesome!

Thank you to André Eckertfor creating this awesome animation!

WHAT IS INTERSEX?
Intersex people are born with atypical sex characteristics: it relates to a range of variations in sex autonomy. That is, physical variations in chromosomes, gonads, sex hormones or genitals.
Many different forms of intersex exist; it is an umbrella term, rather than a single category.  Some intersex people identify within a binary
gender system. Some see themselves outside of any binary - biological and identity wise.

For more info, go on YouTube an look for “What is Intersex? (Pt1)” by Hans Lindahl.

3 YEAR ANNIVERSARY
Three years ago I started posting body positive illustrations on Instagram. Back then I thought I’d only be doing this for three months and I was afraid that I might run out of ideas during that short time period. Boy, oh, boy, was I wrong!!! It’s been three whole years now and there are still so many illustrations I want to draw! I’m certain that I will continue posting body positive content for a looonnggg time! This image by the way is the very first bopo illustration I ever did. I drew it in July 2016 and posted it in August 2016. Back then I was so unsure and I wasn’t practiced in drawing chubby and fat bodies at all! Can you imagine?! Thank you to all my fans that have found me over the years and that have stayed by my side! Thanks for every like, every nice comment and every dm I got!!! You are the reason that keeps me going!!!

Hi everyone, I hope you’re doing okay! I had a tough start into this week but I’m certain it’s gonna be better tomorrow! Mondays are the hardest days of the week! :,)
Anyway, you deserve to be kind to yourself! So if you are struggling as well, treat yourself, take breaks (that’s what I’m gonna do now!) and be patient with yourself. ❤

WHAT IS INTERSEX?
Intersex people are individuals with any of several variations in chronosomes, gonads, sex hormones or genitals that do not fit the typical definitions of the male or female sex. Intersex is the scientific proof that even biological sex is on a spectrum and not a binary system.
