  • Yeah calling other people eggs I don’t think is ever a good idea, since like you mentioned, whatever someone’s gender is, they are valid, and it is entirely their own decision. I don’t entirely agree with the person you replied to because being a femboy is perfectly valid and not at all a “terrible fate,” although as someone who calls their past self an egg, I sympathize with them to a degree because I feel like I can’t call my own self an egg. Idk, maybe a new word is needed because of the toxicity associated with the word egg, but I’m unsure that that would actually fix anything.


  • The whole egg discourse puts a bad taste in my mouth as well. I’ve referred to my past self as an egg and then had someone tell me to stop using that word because it’s groomer language. I’ve never violated the egg prime directive and never will, but I like using egg to describe my past self. However, now when I use the term I get worried because I just don’t want to deal with people who have a stick up their butt.













  • I can confirm it does. It is a lot rarer now for me to experience anger and it is a lot easier for me to cry. I also had a change in taste as well. I used to hate blueberries, grapes, and asparagus but now I love them. I’ve also found that my tolerance and cravings for spicy food has increased as well. Those changes all occured within my first few months of taking HRT.

    (PS, I hope you are able to get HRT soon)
