In this graphic memoir, Fitzgerald paints a childhood full of sleepovers, playing dress-up, amateur fortune-telling and renting scary movies. Yet, Fitzgerald suspects that she is unlike her friends. The book navigates a child's struggle with averageness, a preteen's budding bisexuality and a young woman's return after rejection. Fitzgerald takes us from her first kiss to a life sworn to singlehood, while weaving in allusions to witches in history and popular culture. Long Red Hair alluringly delves into the mystique of red hair and the beguiling nature of alternative romantic relationships. No library descriptions found. |

I was a bit disappointed by the notes on the last page though. It says something like "back then, I only knew the word bisexual, so I used that even though there are more inclusive words now, like pansexual". Nonbinary gender isn't mentioned explicitly, but this reeally feels like the old "bi means two so you can only be into women and men" thing. No. Call your orientation what you want: bi, pan, queer, multi, omni or something else entirely. But bi/bisexual/biromantic means what we use it for. Being inclusive of nonbinary trans people is part of bisexual history. What has policing multi-gender-attraction done for me as a genderqueer person? Well, not nothing, except there are people who believe I'm "oppressing myself" if I identify as bi rather than pan… So that's why I'm a bit fucking sensitive about that issue.
Seriously, use whatever word you like and don't be a dick and don't tell other people what their identity "actually means".
But that's not really about the comic, I simply disagree with pansexual being "more inclusive" in and of itself. ( )
