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.

    Egg is something that can only be used in the past tense to refer to oneself. Present tense usage isn’t correct, or worst case scenario is presumptuous and toxic.

    I.e.

    “I remember back then I was such an egg” ✅

    “Ugh I can’t believe I said that, I’m such an egg 🏳️‍⚧️” ❌

    “See that femboy over there? She’s totally an egg.” ☣️
