“Lobsters are low-key kinda trans, they are gynandromorphic (can have both male and female characteristics) so until we get our own trans symbol we’re hijacking the lobster and making that our symbol,”
-Charlie Craggs, Trans activist and athor of To My Trans Sisters

Of course we have since gotten our Trans flag emoji, but we will not forget the time the noble lobster stood in for it, in our hearts and our keyboards. This is a standalone chart and can be adapted to any end use you like, from a pair of fabulous socks, to a gigantic steeked afghan, to a cozy for your french press or a case for your Switch. The sky is the limit!
