Venus Envy (Webcomic) | comment |
Venus Envy is a transgender-centered Slice of Life webcomic which is notable for portraying the subject matter more realistically than most at the time, rather than taking the Transformation Comic route. The comic was written and illustrated by Crystal Frasier under the name "Erin Lindsey."It originally started as a simple gag comic about a trans girl, but the nameless lead character soon developed into the comic's heroine, Zoë (assigned name Alex) Carter. The story itself is a Teen Dramedy that centers around Zoë's life as a girl in her new town, where no one (with a couple of exceptions) knows that she was Alexander Carter just a few months ago. The title of the comic is, of course, a pun on Sigmund Freud's thesis of penis envy, which obviously fails at a girl who's actively trying to get rid of her penis.The webcomic briefly succumbed to Orphaned Series syndrome, due to the author's then-waning interest and busy real-life. Due to the original comic's cliffhanger ending and popular demand, Trans Girl Diaries did a fan follow-up (essentially a webcomic Doujinshi), here, which mimicked the style of the original comic and was well received by the VE fandom.The author herself seems to have been pleased by this: The comic kept being updated, albeit sporadically, and seems to be following the basic outline of the aforementioned doujinshi. Since January 2014, Venus Envy is on indefinite hiatus. A backup of the pages can be found here. | |

Venus Envy (Webcomic) / int_12dd1d4c | comment |
Rape as Drama: Zoë was raped in seventh grade by an older student when she first tried on a dress she had created for the play she was working on. This was before she was living as a girl and was the first time anyone outside of her family saw the real her. | |

Daddy's Girl: Downplayed, but Zoë actually is one. Her father also scolds her when he's annoyed by her behavior, but he protects her from her mother's more unkind treatments, supports her transition as she's visibly happier for it and, when Zoë's mother wants to make her dress like a boy, he brings her girl's clothing including a necklace to cover her Adam's apple, causing Zoë to squee in happiness. | |

Venus Envy (Webcomic) / int_20c99f6e | comment |
Hidden Heart of Gold: Larson, oh so much. It shows for the first time when he brings Zoë, to whom he'd only been antagonistic so far, estrogen after her mother took her hormones away. Around this time, it also becomes more apparent that Larson is not so much spying on Zoë as watching out for her. | |

Why Couldn't You Be Different? | |
Venus Envy (Webcomic) / int_4623b3bb | comment |
Why Couldn't You Be Different?: Zoë's parents' (particularly her mother's) reaction to her being transgender. Even when it is repeatedly diagnosed by independent therapists and she is repeatedly referred to a specialist for treatment, they continue to try and find a therapist who will tell them that Zoë's insane and that they will cure her for them. In the end, at least one therapist suggested they get therapy to help them deal with their reaction while Zoë was in therapy. Zoë's mother continues to play this trope straight — outright blackmailing Zoë into going to church as Alex and generally not being supportive in the least. Amusingly, the people at the out of town church they go to mistake Zoë for a lesbian, not for a boy — and are more supportive than Zoë's mother (one tries to hook Zoë up with her niece), to boot! | |

There Are No Therapists: Averted and played straight — Zoë's new town doesn't have a specialist in her type of therapy, but her old therapist does come to visit. In addition, it's shown early in the comic that Zoë's parents kept taking her to different therapists trying to find one that wouldn't suggest Zoë visit a specialist in Gender Dysphoria (aka Transgenderism). One even suggested they get therapy to try and get over their problem with this. | |

Wanted a Gender-Conforming Child | |
Venus Envy (Webcomic) / int_9d6f34b2 | comment |
Wanted a Gender-Conforming Child: Zoë's mother is in deep denial about her, still insisting on calling her "Alex" and referring to her as he and her son. She genuinely thinks that the self expression as female is just "Alex"'s way of overplaying insecurities and that "he" would be happier if just accepting "himself" and building a confidence on that, but her behavior occasionally lapses into emotional abuse, such as when she makes Zoë wear masculine dressing against her will, forces her to present as male when they go to church, or takes away her hormone pills. | |

Open-Minded Parent | |
Venus Envy (Webcomic) / int_aa6043ca | comment |
Open-Minded Parent: Subverted. When Zoë is trying to tell her mother that she's transgender, her mom says: "It's okay, honey. We love you even if you're gay. You will always be our little boy." As Zoë tells her that she's indeed a girl, her mother shows to be completely unwilling to accept this. Humorously inverted with her father. When Zoë's mother comes up to tell him, "our son thinks he's a girl", the father replies: "Thank God! I was afraid he was gay." Her father really seems to be more open-minded altogether, as he's the first of their family who starts referring to Zoë with "girl" and female pronouns, gets used to her new name, and acknowledges her positive development as a young woman. He also steps in when Zoë's mother threatens to burn her dresses and deescalates the fight. | |

Easy Sex Change: Completely averted. We see the lengths Larson and Zoë have to go to cover their anatomy in everyday life, the psychological stress caused by regularly consuming several medications and hormones, the partly really awful attitudes their families have about them, the vastly subduing effect it has on their love lives, self loathing, doubts, depressions... it is definitely anything but easy. | |

My Beloved Smother | |
Venus Envy (Webcomic) / int_b58c51d8 | comment |
My Beloved Smother: Zoë's mother doesn't want her to go out alone in the evening, because she thinks "someone like her" is even more endangered than "a normal girl". Seeing that Zoë went on a date with a boy, not a girl, she completely loses it. There's also the fact that, one day, she tries to bond with her kid, the next day she plots to manipulate Zoë into giving up hormone therapy because she just doesn't want to acknowledge that Zoë is happier and more self-confident because she lives as a girl now. Though, in all fairness, when it comes to dating, Zoë's father shows a bit of the same streak, if not quite as extreme. | |
