Unfortunately, Porter, like many friends and family of transgender individuals, doesn't immediately understand and accept his friend.

About the author
Phoenix Baldwin (born January 12, 1998) is the author of online comics and books under the "DinoToons" title, starting with Here Comes the Moon. He currently resides in Orange County, California. Phoenix attended two schools to pursue study of art, but ultimately dropped them for individual study with different professors. DinoToons was in the works when leaving the first school, where Phoenix dreamed of combining one of his passions - dinosaurs - with the LGBT inclusive themes that DinoToons bears today. A transgender man himself, Phoenix wants to see more children's media that portrays people like him and made DinoToons to help take steps in that direction.
