They are probably not out, so cannot present feminime to others yet. As an alternative, they present fem at home alone, here indicated by the transformation. “It’s a vibe” could refer to presenting fem being their preferred state.
I’m just trying to understand how to relate to the post in any way. I just don’t understand how. I’d like to understand what your thoughts are while posting this. That’s all. 🤷♂️ I don’t mean any harm.
From what I can tell it’s possible that the OP may have some trauma or at the very least past negative experiences with egg culture. I can neither confirm nor deny this though as I’m not the OP, I am basing it off my own negative experiences with egg culture.
For those not in the know egg culture is the phenomenon around Egg_irl, it’s the idea that people are transgender without knowing it, or are in denial. The problematic part is that it also targets people who are Gender Non-Conforming (GNC) because it heavily utilizes gender stereotypes.
If that is the case they might have a completely valid reason for why they posted it or are vibing with it and are not sharing it because they feel like people are going to call them an egg or harass them again, but they wanted to share it because they thought other people might enjoy it.
Here’s a sample of what Egg culture harassment looks like by the way, just to give an idea for people who haven’t experienced it (count yourselves lucky), fair warning, it’s unpleasant.
Toxic Egg culture, Enbyphobia, probably is harassment.
“I’m saying you’re an Egg because you seem to have an interest in dressing as something other than your AGAB, you’re obviously not Cisgender. People can be either Male or Female and you’re clearly not male, because males don’t enjoy things like that if you keep lying to yourself you’ll never be happy”
I could understand why the op might be a bit more on edge then they otherwise would be if they experienced egging like this.
I think mostly it’s the idea that people* who break gender stereotypes (or are thought to break gender stereotypes) are trans, I don’t think it necessarily implies that everyone is trans, I’ve seen people who claim that and act like it but for the most part it’s based on lack of adherence to gender stereotypes.
(*Most of the times this doesn’t include women who dress in a masculine way, tomboys getting egged definitely does happen, but it’s not as common since women dressing masc has been established as a normal thing.)
I find the whole thing insane. It basically ignores the fact that behavior is fluid. Traits are individual and fluid. Humor is fluid. Everything about our behavior is fluid. You can be “camp af” and still be straight, and “butch af” and still be gay. And that’s just scratching the surface.
Yeah the whole idea of egg culture is very weird and restrictive. It imposes unnatural restrictions on people for how they should act and implies things about them that might not be correct and in many cases aren’t that other person’s bussiness (who are they to judge what gender a person is on the inside when they don’t even really know that person).
Huh. Then I still don’t really get neither the title nor the image. 😅 Trying to grasp it…

Sounds reasonable. Thanks for explaining! OP seems to just want to be difficult for no reason lol.
Is making sense a requirement in this community?
You seem like you’re getting offended.

I’m defintely not offended in any way, shape or form. Sometimes things just happen, y’know?
And… What happened?

Interesting. So the theory is that all humans are trans? Is that correct?
