This design isn’t subtle because the message doesn’t need softening. “Laws off my body” is a direct refusal of anyone thinking they get a say over bodies that aren’t theirs. No metaphors, no poetic padding. It’s a line drawn clearly, because clarity matters more than being palatable.
The cat embodies that refusal. Cats don’t negotiate autonomy or ask for permission, they just exist on their own terms. The playful cowboy hat, heart-shaped glasses, and bold colors are deliberate contrast: a serious message wrapped in humor and attitude. Protest doesn’t have to look grim to be valid. If the mix of fun and defiance makes someone uncomfortable, that’s not a flaw — it’s the point.
