I am a mod, but i am so out of passion. The original egg_irl on reddit is responsible for me finding myself as a trans woman.
The title rule exists to keep this place light-hearted. there are other places on this instance for deeper conversation, but this is first and foremost a place to share memes about eggs and gender questioning people and being trans.
The vast majority of community reports here are about breaking the title rule. Every once in a while there’s a spam report, or a report of stuff being off-topic, but mostly? just people breaking the title rule.
I get it. I thought the title rule was silly at first too. but it helps keep this place light-hearted and a place where people can flirt with their gender and/or dip their toes in the water safely, and make silly memes about the whole thing, without having to get serious about it and confront deep things within yourself you’re not ready to yet.
Sure, some random gru’s plan meme may topple you into that place anyway, but that’s the point. The only person who should crack an egg is the person inside that egg, and only through personal realization and self-understanding. The title rule helps us not step over that incredibly important boundary line.
