angrily emphasizing how much of a big strong man you are definitely means you're very confident in being a man, huh?

the most truly masculine men i've ever met never felt the need to be this aggressive about how strong and manly they are.

The flip side is there are plenty of eggs who had an "I'm a manly man who does manly man things" phase.

Someone who is trans but hasn't realized it yet. Usually experiencing some form of internalized transphobia or denial before coming out.

Breaking out of your egg is like the trans version of coming out of the closet to yourself

Okie doke. In NZ, calling someone an egg means something else.

It's like a lighthearted jibe usually delivered with no malice behind it to mean someone is being silly/ a clown.

yeah we have a similar term in Aus. Calling someone an "egg" is the same. And "good egg" vs "bad egg" is also used

How much you bet his porn history includes an obscene amount of gay and trans porn?

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
