Rules on Post Titles and Tags:
Posts must be titled "egg_irl". An emoji or two is OK, but they have to be between "egg" and "irl".
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][CW: Transphobia][CW: Violence][CW: Weapons/Firearms][CW: Disturbing Imagery]You may optionally include other tags, such as:

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

I just thought that everyone felt that way secretly 🤔
that have been my experience all of my life since I started growing up... didn't realise until much much later (25+) that it was dysphoria!
I'm currently dealing with one of the worst dysphoria crisis I've ever experienced.
Hugs :)
Damn... Let us know if you need anything.
I'm fine thank you for asking!
I've also had one of the best days of my life! I met other transgender young people and our respective parents and we spent a lot of time together sharing experiences and love and got to know each other better!
It was a lovely experience and I managed to cuddle with everyone (cuddling is my love language) and so I'm very happy and satisfied!
you could say that I'm living an emotional rollercoaster these days: I have supporting people around me and that makes things easier ♥️
How was your day?
I'll be 2 years into transition in November and I've taken more pictures of myself in the last year than the previous 20.
i really hope that will happen to me as well :) but I guess I just don't like taking pictures in general so I don't expect much to change in that respect 🤣
I didn't either. Basically the only pictures of me before were taken by other people like family for Christmas or work things.
I was a little little less than a year on when somone took a picture with me in it and I realized I didn't feel nearly as awkward about it as I normally would.
Yeah I understand that feeling... there are very few pictures of me as well since middle school and I hate every single one of them! My family for some reason likes them so you can find them on the walls sometimes and I cringe every time!
🤣
this is so real
Found out really quickly that boys did not think like that and would make fun of those that would admit such a thing
