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.

    wasn’t there something about it being considered misogynistic except if you’re in spain, then it’s considered normal?

      Not sure, I just know that I’ve known people who complained because men called them chicks, claiming it was demeaning, objectifying, or misogynistic. I don’t personally know that much since I’m not actually a woman. Sorry to all if I came off as mansplaining, or… enbysplaining…? 🤷

      I’m from Spain, here egg/huevo is used for male balls, no one would use it for trans identity.

      Chick/pollito is not used for girls because pollito actually sounds more like a small dick? Kinda, small dick would be pollita. So yeah.

      No, in Spain it’s not considered normal, it’s just not something you would say to anyone. Weird AF.
