TBH I read it more as a somewhat awkward attempt to acknowledge that some trans people may initially dismiss their transness as a fetish, before realizing there is more to.

[-] [email protected] 22 points 8 months ago

Yeah, the way I understand it, you're not actually a chaser unless you go around chasing people, regardless of what you're into. And just dating trans people wouldn't do it either, you'd have to be objectifying/using them. Correct me if I'm wrong.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

That's how I read it

[-] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Bro no way I was actually shocked to see your profile picture. That exact image poured some memories and feelings from a childhood time into me the moment I saw it. I almost forgot I knew this image, but I instantly knew it must this image I had seen many years ago. Damn.

[-] [email protected] 25 points 8 months ago

Nothing wrong with being into a certain type. Unless you're weird about it of course.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

OK to be a chaser? Not OK to not want to have sex with trans women? I'm always confused about this point.

I fully support trans people, everyone has a right to be happy. My own child is gender fluid and gets my 200% full support, but for the life of me I can't understand what's wrong with refusing the date trans people.

(please don't just downvote me, teach me...)

[-] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

I think there's nothing wrong with that, it's just what you are into, except if you are weird about it, in both cases. What i do is know that person and don't think about their genitals

[-] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

Well, I have seen this before on Reddit some time ago but it was on a transformation porn subreddit so if it was originally made for something like that it makes more sense

[-] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

I think it's more about transformation fetishists. Which, honestly, is how I got introduced into this world.

I pretty much was that guy for like 20 years before I ventured further down this chart. Except less enthusiastic about it.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

Could be for the sissy fetish as well

[-] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

I don't think the author meant chasers, a lot of trans people interpret (or develop through) their transness a "being the other gender" fetish.

[-] [email protected] 49 points 8 months ago

I feel like the way they included stop portions on the masculine side they should've also included a stop portion on the feminine side because femboys are valid too, and aren't just "trans girls in-denial" like is often said about us.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 8 months ago

I think you could stop at any point along the chart, although some of them seem pretty far from comfortable to me.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 8 months ago

That is true, I mean that this one

Is also a natural stopping point for femboys in the same way that this one

is for Gender Conforming Cis people.

So while technecally any point could be a stopping point, despite being very uncomfortable (especially this one) what I meant is that this is a definitive end point for people who consider themselves femboys, as in males who identify as male but choose to dress and present in a feminine way.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

Yeah, I get you. I think the two panels directly above those are also likely stopping points, just a cis dude who's attracted to trans bodies (everyone can have a fetish but...) or a cis dude who thinks gender exploration is fascinating (much healthier imo)

[-] [email protected] 41 points 8 months ago

Would be so much better if they didn't use the abbreviate of "TG" and just wrote it out. Like I'm trans and don't 100% know what they meant. Like I assume it's trans gender? But then that doesn't quite fit dramatically with the first sentence.

[-] [email protected] 21 points 8 months ago

I need a third arrow that goes from the starting position which is literally just a path into space cuz idk what's going on and I'm attracted to everyone and I don't feel gender in any way and what the fuck is even life or sth idk

[-] [email protected] 12 points 8 months ago

Maybe agender would resonate with you?

Also, one of my genderfluid friends describes their sexuality as bi but as "gay in both directions" which is just delightful to me.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago

Just casually slipping through the cracks here: I kinda don't care who I am nor do I have a fetish (at least afaik), but I find some stuff you ppl do generally interesting (e.g. voice lessons).

[-] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

The voice changing stuff is like wildly interesting, I think there could be a future where more people consider it as part of their presentation.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago

This is wonderful, thank you for sharing!

[-] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago

Damn ADORABLE

[-] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

I think I am the one beneath the top left...? Like, I wouldn't mind being a girl but no way would I change my body. I like this. It would feel very weird and wrong to be using she/her. But if an imaginary scenario where you could just flip a lever to be in a different body without anyone making a fuss about it existed – I'd flip that lever.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

This is wonderful, though I feel like "I don't feel super comfortable in my body" as a pre-cursor to nonbinary identity is a narrow view. I didn't experience much gender dysphoria before transitioning, but I experience a hell of a lot of gender euphoria when exploring my nb side.

Maybe I am real egg, hell

!egg_irl is for widely relatable memes about questioning one's gender or being an egg (a trans person in denial) as well as other eggy topics.

If you are looking for a place to discuss something specific to you or especially if you need help or are in crisis, we have communities and resources that can support you linked at the bottom of this sidebar.

General Rules:

  1. No bigotry.

  2. No spam, bots, or vote farming.

Rules on Post Titles and Tags:

  1. Posts must be titled "egg_irl". An emoji or two is OK, but they have to be between "egg" and "irl".

  2. Posts that assume the viewer's gender and/or contain potentially triggering content must be spoilered and tagged at the beginning of the post title. Example content-warning tags that you can copy include the following:

    • [CW: Assumes Viewer is Transmasc]
    • [CW: Assumes Viewer is Transfem]
    • [CW: Assumes Viewer is Nonbinary]

Rules on Comments

  1. If a post is tagged with a specific gender identity, keep the conversation centered on that identity.

  2. You must follow the Egg Prime Directive. You may not push or coerce people into identifying or not identifying a certain way. You must respect them as the gender they claim to identify as. In addition it is extremely in poor taste to make assumptions about other people's identities based on external factors, we understand it cannot be helped but it is best not to as it can affect the way you treat others in noticeable ways.

Recommendations:

We strongly encourage you to include your pronouns in your account bio so that others know how to refer to you without misgendering you. If you're questioning or unsure of your pronouns, that's totally cool—just say so.
