Question Is this logo offensive?
Hi guys! When I was designing the logo, I sincerely didn't know about this symbol and it was honestly just a coincidence that the symbol in the logo and the intersex* symbol are the same!
In the comic, I touch on many queer situations, mental health and disabilities, however, none of it is related to intersex people experiences, and now I'm worried that I've been unknowingly making fun of it or being offensive by having made my logo this way :(
Do you think it's wiser to change the logo? Aw man, I'm just so disappointed in myself, I'm really sorry
////Edit* Someone here informed me that the term intersex is better than hermaphrodite, so I changed the terms! Sorry for my ignorance! (˘･_･˘)

I personally don't think you need to change it, it's whatever. If people genuinely get upset about it that's weird as hell. If it really bothers you though you could maybe move one of the signs to another letter? Won't look as good but oh well.
