How to get out of an uncomfortable egg culture situation with this one simple trick.

Real talk: Calling people eggs is a violation of the egg prime directive, and is considered invalidating as you are trying to say that a person is not the gender they identify as, that their identity is invalid. Don’t call people eggs, like ever, it’s extremely uncool.

      Oh, I get it now 🙄

      For those not in the know “chick” is a term to refer to women. There are varying opinions on its use but it is considered by many to be objectifying and misogynistic.

      …That actually makes the idea of calling other people eggs somehow even worse.

          Not sure, I just know that I’ve known people who complained because men called them chicks, claiming it was demeaning, objectifying, or misogynistic. I don’t personally know that much since I’m not actually a woman. Sorry to all if I came off as mansplaining, or… enbysplaining…? 🤷
