Is this logo offensive?

[u/Kokovi_illust]

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 mean, yes, that would probably be best, as I would have been very confused here too tbh ^^"
If you touch on queer themes and topics, it will discredit your experience of knowledge within these spaces if you use a symbol related to intersex individuals while having no intersex individuals in your story at all. While it may be a coincidence, you should change it both for your and the reader's sake now that you do and probably make sure that if you write out of the zone that you have reliant knowledge on (e.g. being a straight male writer writing about lesbians, being a cis-person writing about trans characters, etc. ...) that it is important to inform yourself and potentially have a sensitivity reader familiar with the topic!!

Also, just a well-meant hint: You should probably also be careful with the emojis in your replies to the original poster. I know you are a person and meant well and felt guilty, but as you were unaffected and not harmed by pointing this out, it may seem "unserious" at points when talking about something that may have affected this reader personally negatively.
I know it's not entirely logical, but we unfortunately all know how toxic online discourse has gotten and how things may be interpreted differently. Having a concise and elaborate response is probably better than mixing it up with personal emotions / representing emotions. It is of course up to interpretation a lot, but I've unfortunately had my fair share of online miscommunication in that regard :')

Need to mention: None of this is intended to be rude or accusatory, it is just very late for me and I'm a bit out of batteries lol.
