April 10th: The bill has been vetoed!
April 2nd: The politicians in Arizona are about to sign into law a bill that would mandate sites like e621 to either impose age verification on all users or be at a risk of lawsuits. Such system would be required to go through third party vendors, who in turn must go through a government database to verify every user's age. This is not only a major violation of privacy, but it also opens up a very real danger of identity theft through phishing schemes and other methods, not to mention that we would not be able to control any of that information to make sure it is permanently deleted after age verification is complete.
Unfortunately, Arizona is the state out of which e621 operates, which means that this law will almost certainly affect us if it is to pass. If want to help us ensure that this site can continue to serve you without being required to know who you are, please ask the Arizona governor to veto this bill.
Please, help us get the word out by letting others know about this issue.

We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

Memberif i understand it correctly, that Natani here finally realizes that there's nothing wrong with being a woman or being feminine, then why did s/he lose his/her breasts now?

MemberI think what's more implied that Natani will still identify as male, but is now comfortable with his real body. In the previous page the young Natani mentioned "I don't mind being a girl, but I liked being seen as a boy more". I think Natani will just be comfortable in his own skin now.

MemberIt's also more realistic. You can't just break a years old habit with a single discussion.

MemberWe'll have to see how things go, but as I understood, Nat is now more comfortable with both male and female sides of his/her personality.

MemberIt's a good thing Natani woke up, but now she's got a fire to take care of, and an army on the search for wolf keidran to exterminate. I hope for the best.

MemberI read this scene completely different. I read it more that Natani always thought that his wanting to be perceived as male was due to the fact that he was linked to Zen, but his younger self reminded him that even when he was young he still felt the same way and that his memories of him thinking he ever felt feminine were due to zen's memories of him. Basically this conversation and also the validation from kathrin is what makes him more comfortable, because he is no longer self conscious about what he looks like because he already knows who he is and so does all of his friends. I honestly doubt he will ever want to be a girl, but he is definitely much more comfortable with feminine things.
