Welcome to femcel memes. A place where anybody can post memes that fit the vibe.

Warning: We have a tendency to post things that may at times come from a self-deprecating perspective or things that are funny coming from another queer person. This space will always be a safe place for transfems, non-binary people, people with a feminine gender expression (GNC or otherwise) or anybody else in the LGBT Community to come together and share about our experiences but we truly feel that laughing about the sometimes silly and embarrassing parts the queer experience can help bring us together. We never mean offense or harm in anything posted but rather they are satirical takes coming from queer people.

A note about 'Egging': Our community is mostly made up of transfem individuals, and as such most memes posted will be posted with the intention of having a transfem perspective. However, regardless of gender identity, all feminine presenting individuals are welcome here. Whether that means you're NB, GNC, transmasc, or any other identity, you are welcome here. It is not our intention or goal to invalidate these identities. If something makes you uncomfortable, please feel free to report the post and I will address your concerns on an individual level. For more information regarding the problems with 'Egg-culture', please see Here.

Love Y'all and thank you for following this community

I wasn't a part of making this community, but I've done a little to help it grow.. Here's the rub; while I think we generally try to meme from a uniquely trans fem pov (which is awesome) there is an entire toxic form of femininity ready to latch on to this community. One only has to do a quick search on 🤮eddit to find this.

I really do love the style of memes here, but this is my plea to the mods to keep it from getting toxic. Sure, the memes can be super dark at times, but we should really keep the r/femaledaingstrategey stuff out. It'd be awesome if we can keep the comm title as mostly a joke.

This image is just a taste of what's out there that can be toxic. Feel free to remove it, but I wanted to get a point across for all of our sakes.

I woke up that night from a tree branch out outside scraping against my window. Seemed like a storm was rolling in from the coast. I could just barely smell salt or something on the wind, it was humid and warmer than usual for January too.

I peeked my head out the front door to look at the sky. Full moon out, bright yellow, but obscured by some clouds. I went back inside to make a snack, now too awake to go back to bed. Popped a piece of bread in the toaster and watched idly as the coils glowed orange and hot like a campfire. I could still smell something in the air, thick and heavy. It was like I was in another world for a bit feeling the warmth of my toaster.

The pop of metal springs snapped me back to reality, my toast was ready. Perfectly crispy bread, no need for anything else. I wasn't even hungry really, I just wanted something to occupy myself. I took my toast outside to sit on my porch and enjoy the weather before it got cold and rainy again. The wind was gone and a thick fog had poured into the valley like some kind of soup. The smell had gotten stronger as well, falling squarely between delightful and sickening. How long had it been since I came out here? Only a minute or so, I thought. The whole night felt surreal.

Sitting on my porch, pristine toast in my mouth, I saw a dark silhouette in the distance and I could feel my stomach drop. My unease shifted to horror as the figure move into the light of a street lamp. A man holding a steaming cauldron filled with truly unspeakable horrors, too filling for anyone to endure. I knew now that I had never woken up on this night, nor was I in a dream.

I was in a nightmare that I could not escape, no matter how I tried. Like Sisyphus was doomed to eternally push a boulder up a mountain despite it inevitably rolling back down, I too was doomed. The fate of my toast had been sealed the moment I made it, cursed to be ruined by that infernal fondue pot. I saw the person holding it clearly in that moment. The person I believed to only exist in stories:

Cheddy Blueger.

Addendum: I have no fucking clue why my brain thought this was worth writing, and honestly I tried to stop myself, but here we are. All for a dumb name pun. Thanks a lot brain.

Seriously though, it was a perfect mix of horrifying and hilarious.

Yeah, that was me after writing it too.

Also thank you. I wanted to write something that sold the spooky atmosphere just a bit with the whole tension build up thing that horror does, but also just have it be really mundane and not scary once the whole thing is read through.

Heavily inspired from this comment from a few months back (warning: the writing gets gory), which has a similar "nonsense horror" thing: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/29305756/13960415

(Is there a better way to link comments on Lemmy?)

I think the comment link is good. It works for me from the web UI and Voyager without issue.

And thank you for accepting this curse in stride.

But seriously, thanks. I put a good amount of effort into it despite not wanting to, and I had fun with it cause I love the whole premise of nonsense stuff being portrayed as if it's scary.

Nothing is more terrifying than that which we cannot understand...

Or something like that anyways :3
