(lemmy.blahaj.zone)
How to get out of an uncomfortable egg culture situation with this one simple trick.
Real talk: Calling people eggs is a violation of the egg prime directive, and is considered invalidating as you are trying to say that a person is not the gender they identify as, that their identity is invalid. Don't call people eggs, like ever, it's extremely uncool.

Self-proclaimed eggs realize they might be not-cis; but they haven't found themself yet. Or are in the denial phase. Or many other things.

Memes about calling others eggs are often controversial. Most of the memes are either just general trans memes that aren't really egg-specific or people making fun of their own egginess.
