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.

    @tb_ thanks, got it. Has it been a thing for many years or is it new?

      Not many years, but far from new in internet time scales. Maybe in the last decade or so.

        @jawa21 now that I’m really thinking about it, I think I’ve probably seen people using it to refer to themselves but not using it on others as an insult.
