To be fair, I'm cis and happy with my masculinity. But I'd still rather be a beautiful women than a guy who looks like I do.

[-] HappyFrog 25 points 1 month ago

I feel like most people are ambivalent towards their gender. I feel like being purely cis or purely trans is more uncommon. But that's just a feeling I've had.

[-] VaalaVasaVarde@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 month ago

What about being cis and have accepted it as part of one's identity with all the positives and negatives that are included?

When I then know that you can change your gender and hear about all the ones with dysphoria that gets happy, it mostly seems like a distant world that I can't fathom.

Anyway that's just how I feel.

[-] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Yep. I'm 100% immune to this stuff and only sympathise with people suffering from wrong gender dysmorphia. If I was a woman none of my behaviour or perspectives would change, as I have a fairly ungender based view on the world and the role I have on it as a man and women have on it.

With the obvious exception of romantic relationships.

Valid and slay king

Being beautiful is a superpower, disregarding gender. I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of “cis” people who are not conventionally attractive would choose to take this deal purely for the social benefits.

[-] TotallynotJessica 9 points 1 month ago

Dysphoria can be far worse than you imagine, especially when you've experienced something better

[-] 2d4_bears 12 points 1 month ago

I mean, I am a nonbinary person who does experience dysphoria. I just suspect that a lot of folks, especially those who don’t understand the consequences, would take the deal purely for perceived social benefits. Would they regret it? Possibly, yeah.

I'm a cis woman. Can I push this button please?

[-] TotallynotJessica 5 points 1 month ago

You know what, I think you can!

[-] SARGE@startrek.website 8 points 1 month ago

Fuck yeah.

Still cis tho

[-] chaos@beehaw.org 7 points 1 month ago

I think I might have the dumbest gender identity, because I'd smash the hell out of that button but then immediately come out as a trans man.

[-] birdwing 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

if i got a working uterus alongside with it, yayy yes! But sadly I don't, and I mourn that, though I won't give up.

without, less so, but it still helped me a lot✨🌈🏳️‍🌈

Wish it was that simple. Not so much in the US, unless you show no outward signs of being trans and your identity documents also magically transformed and your family and employer don't remember your AGAB. Friends aren't an issue since I get to pick those and picked well.

!egg_irl

!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 Content:

  1. No reposts.

  2. No personal-life posts, bingo cards, quizzes, selfies, "trans/not trans" lists, picrew, or non-memes.

  3. No visible names or usernames.

  4. Do not post or link to pornography.

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]
    • [CW: Transphobia]
    • [CW: Violence]
    • [CW: Weapons/Firearms]
    • [CW: Disturbing Imagery]
    • [CW: Fictional Egging]
  3. You may optionally include other tags, such as:

    • [Transmasc Meme]
    • [Transfem Meme]
    • [Nonbinary Meme]
    • [Gender-Nonspecific Meme]

Rules on Post Text:

  1. If possible, include an image description for accessibility.

  2. Add sources for art.

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. Read more about this decision here.

  3. No Ewwphoria posts. Posts which contain misogyny, misandry, transmisogyny, transmisandry, or enbyphobia for the purpose of expressing euphoria are not allowed here. At best they bring anger to others, and at worst they may trigger people's dysphoria. People who create such posts will have them removed and may be banned at moderator discretion.

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.
