    Might be possible if what they think “being men” means is off in some way. But what does it even mean to be man

      To think of yourself as one and the effect of other people recognizing you as such. What exactly that means is up to the person, but men generally don’t hate being what they are, with most of them enjoying it overall and some being pleasantly indifferent. If existing as a man is overall unpleasant and you would be way happier as another gender, you probably aren’t a man.

        pleasantly indifferent

        Yeah I think I’m indifferent. I don’t really think of myself. My fantasies are just like FPS, just arms.

        I just wanna try more clothing, but can’t manage to play around with it and couldn’t find a better place than this. There isn’t really a place for being confused about representation.

                I mean, I wear black leggings and a pink/black hoodie dress right now. But I wouldn’t be able to open the shutters or walk outside. It’s also just a very long hoodie

    I don’t hate being a man, but I’m not particularly attached to it, either. I was just born this way.

        So uh… Is egg the character or a title assigned to a specific type of person?

          It’s a trans person before they accept themselves as transgender. It’s also impossible to really call someone an egg until they’re no longer one, as no one but the person can determine their gender.

!egg_irl

!egg_irl is for widely relatable memes about questioning one’s gender or being an egg (a trans person in denial) as well as other eggy topics.

If you are looking for a place to discuss something specific to you or especially if you need help or are in crisis, we have communities and resources that can support you linked at the bottom of this sidebar.

General Rules:

  1. No bigotry.

  2. No spam, bots, or vote farming.

Rules on Content:

  1. No reposts.

  2. No personal-life posts, bingo cards, quizzes, selfies, “trans/not trans” lists, picrew, or non-memes.

  3. No visible names or usernames.

  4. Do not post or link to pornography.

Rules on Post Titles and Tags:

  1. Posts must be titled “egg_irl”. An emoji or two is OK, but they have to be between “egg” and “irl”.

  2. Posts that assume the viewer’s gender and/or contain potentially triggering content must be spoilered and tagged at the beginning of the post title. Example content-warning tags that you can copy include the following:

    • [CW: Assumes Viewer is Transmasc]
    • [CW: Assumes Viewer is Transfem]
    • [CW: Assumes Viewer is Nonbinary]
    • [CW: Transphobia]
    • [CW: Violence]
    • [CW: Weapons/Firearms]
    • [CW: Disturbing Imagery]
    • [CW: Fictional Egging]
  3. You may optionally include other tags, such as:

    • [Transmasc Meme]
    • [Transfem Meme]
    • [Nonbinary Meme]
    • [Gender-Nonspecific Meme]

Rules on Post Text:

  1. If possible, include an image description for accessibility.

  2. Add sources for art.

Rules on Comments

  1. If a post is tagged with a specific gender identity, keep the conversation centered on that identity.

  2. You must follow the Egg Prime Directive. You may not push or coerce people into identifying or not identifying a certain way. You must respect them as the gender they claim to identify as. In addition it is extremely in poor taste to make assumptions about other people’s identities based on external factors, we understand it cannot be helped but it is best not to as it can affect the way you treat others in noticeable ways. Read more about this decision here.

  3. No Ewwphoria posts. Posts which contain misogyny, misandry, transmisogyny, transmisandry, or enbyphobia for the purpose of expressing euphoria are not allowed here. At best they bring anger to others, and at worst they may trigger people’s dysphoria. People who create such posts will have them removed and may be banned at moderator discretion.

Recommendations:

We strongly encourage you to include your pronouns in your account bio so that others know how to refer to you without misgendering you. If you’re questioning or unsure of your pronouns, that’s totally cool—just say so.
