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.

    if one is self-referring as an egg, they’re obviously trans

    Not sure I agree with that. An egg, as I understand it, is someone who is still questioning, or hasn’t started yet, so it’s presumptive to assume that they’re trans and in denial. And while being scared or in denial about possibly being trans is technically transphobia, I think it’s a bit unfair to lump them in with the foaming-at-the-mouth trans-hating crowd.

    OTOH, yes, nobody should be calling you an egg but yourself. Preferably in the past tense <3
