    Thanks. I’ve been comfortable hanging out in transfem spaces but not egg ones because memes like this feel… pushy? to me. I’m comfortable as/with who I am and memes like this kinda make me feel like I have to defend what I’ve figured out/decided on. Idk, they are helping me work out some insecurity by practicing being unbothered by them though, so that’s a plus.

      Yeah that’s a big reason I’m not a fan of them, also they tend to create narratives towards Gender Nonconformity that aren’t super great.

      I think it’s important for people to find validation and discover themselves but it shouldn’t come at the cost of others (i.e. shouldn’t be overly pushy to those who are unwilling, shouldn’t go after people for being femboys/tomboys).
