Femboys are boys who dress, act, and/or look feminine.

Trans girls are girls who were assigned male at birth and identify as girls.

I hope this clears up any misconceptions on the subject.

      Sorry if I offended anyone. I was actually very upset when I posted this because someone had been arguing that I’m an egg and trans girl in denial and that femboys are just trans girls who haven’t gotten HRT and bottom surgery.

      They said a lot more evil shit that I don’t want to repeat. So I felt the need to make this post here and on !femboy@lemmy.blahaj.zone and I was kind of still upset when I came up with the title.

        I don’t think there’s anything wrong with an 🥚joke every now and then, but you shouldn’t argue with someone about their gender! That’s a very unsilly thing to do D:

          A single egg joke now and then, when it’s very clear it’s a joke, might be okay as like an in-joke, but if everyone says it every so often then OP’s gonna see that joke from someone constantly.

          If you hear an ironic joke too often, it starts to lose its irony, and in this case that would probably lead to feelings of invalidation. So don’t make the joke towards people you don’t know.

            The joke does get old after a while, as a femboy myself (same as OP), I experience egg jokes a lot. They were kind of funny in the beginning, but you hear it a lot D:
