5 | !!''What's Normal Anyway?'' contains examples of: |
6 | |
7 | * {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Mel is definitely not normal, but aside from being trans, he's also just kind of strange and in his own head a lot. |
8 | * {{Crossdresser}}: Not normally, but one comic has Mel dressing up in lipstick and an old dress of his because he wanted to get "get his money's worth" out of the dress. |
9 | * EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: Beef. His given name is never revealed. |
10 | * HeteronormativeCrusader: Mel and his friend Diego (who is also trans) get thrown out of a store by a homophobic owner who thinks they're a couple. |
11 | * InopportuneVoiceCracking: Mel's voice starts randomly cracking once he goes on hormones. |
12 | * InTouchWithHisFeminineSide: Mel is effeminate, partially due to his upbringing as female. Quite a sum of the comic deals with his issues concerning manhood and his lack of masculinity. |
13 | * GagHaircut: In the prequel comic Mel gives himself a haircut in high school. It doesn't go well. |
14 | * {{Keet}}: Mel is very loud, energetic, and immature. |
15 | * KindheartedCatLover: Mel is a sweet guy with a cat named Dr. Skateboard. |
16 | * LovableJock: Beef. He is very much a stereotypical straight bro in mannerisms and interests, but he is a nice guy and is supportive of Mel. |
17 | * ManChild: Mel tends to be one, which Leena occasionally points out. |
18 | * SliceOfLife: The comic tells the life of a trans man as he goes through his transition. |
19 | * SobriquetSexSwitch: Melissa -> Mel. |
20 | * TokenBlackFriend: Leena. While she has a brief storyline of her own when she meets a girl and goes off to France, she mainly exists to be Mel's best friend and voice of reason. |
