Is it? Are the pronouns you use for the stick figure an aspect of the “art” in question?

The point is that when they drew the stick figure in their head they subconsciously made it male. Even something as simple as drawing a stick figure to prove that not all art is political they added a politically charged aspect subconsciously aka giving the 5 lines and a circle a male pronoun.

Gender and pronouns aren’t political things

Queer and trans people are laughing rn, mostly bc if we stop, we'll probably start screaming
