Feminine Boys

This is an alternate version of the Feminine Boys community on Reddit. Like that one it is an SFW text based community for the discussion on the Femboy experience.


Rules:

  1. No image posts. This is a text based discussion community so posts can't contain an image (exception for Thumbnails of articles which may be linked). Images can be included in post body if they add context to the discussion or help describe something. Just remember this community's primary purpose is text based discussion. (This also applies to comments).

  2. No NSFW content. Don't engage in discussions of fetish or sexual content here. Sexuality can be discussed here. Discussion of anatomy should be depersonalized.

  3. No being a creep. Don't ask for Dates, sex, DMs, hookups, anything of a sensitive nature like that. Do not post asking for personal information.

  4. No medical discussion.Try not to discuss medical issues as they are prone to incorrect or misinformation. Additionally DO NOT share advice for DIY medical procedures (this is dangerous and will earn you a permanent ban).

  5. No Invalidation Gender Identity. Specifically no calling people eggs, also known informally as egging, which is trying to insist that a femboy (or any other GNC person) must be trans due to being GNC, it is hurtful and invalidating, makes people doubt themselves, and for that reason can be considered a form of gaslighting and abuse. If a person is questioning their gender you may offer them advice but you must not tell them they are trans with any certainty. Also Rule 4 applies heavily here, do not push people to do HRT or worse DIY-HRT. In addition to those rules there is absolutely no homophobia or transphobia allowed in this community whatsoever.

  6. No bigotry of any kind. Absolutely no racism, sexism, ableism or any other form of bigotry will be tolerated here.

  7. No bad-faith politics. Don't engage in bad-faith politics here, this could include alt-right conservative politics but also anything tankie related. We'll know when we see it. Don't test us.

  8. Be nice to each other. The golden rule.

  9. Lemmy.world accounts are forbidden from Posting or commenting here. If you comment here on with accounts from those instances they will be removed and the accounts banned. You may comment here using accounts from other instances. Bans apply retroactively but will be spaced out to avoid spamming the log.

Beware, this is a dangerous path! Harnessing such powerful black magick is not for weak minded! Too much and it will corrupt you and you will become ... TRANS! I too once started out with thigh highs and spinning skirts, but I wasn't strong enough, Arch Linux was too much for me to handle, now you have been warned!

I really hope this is a joke because the egg stuff can be quite hurtful to femboys and GNC people, it's often used against them to say that they're just trans girls in-denial (especially for the ones who took feminizing hormones). Just for clarity to call a Femboy a girl when they don't want it, is misgendering, calling them an egg is extremely disrespectful and invalidates their gender identity.

I know this might've been a joke but all too often these kinds of things are said in contexts where it isn't a joke and comes off as hurtful. Also it's often very hard for people to tell because one person may say it as a joke but another person may mean it whole heatedly.

i agree w/ you! but can i know what does gnc stands for? i think g stands for genderfluid :3c

[–] FirstMajesticComet@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

GNC stands for Gender Non-conforming, sorry I didn't clarify that. I thought most people knew what it means.

Though I guess the Egg stuff can also be quite harmful to Genderfluid people too since a lot of times they are either very ignorant or inconsiderate towards genderfluid people, thankfully it doesn't happen here on the Fediverse (at least mostly) but it was quite the problem back in the day on Reddit.

tysm for telling me. >w< now i know, i think joking about Egg stuff is not a good idea, cause as you said it hurts genderfluid people and i dont like when people are getting hurt :(

[–] pixeltree@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I know it's not specifically what you said but I wanted to say...

Femboys aren't just eggs in denial =/

[–] Caitlyynn@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 10 months ago

I know, my comment is supposed to be sarcasm

So, "egg" is a popular description of trans people who don't yet know/accept/think of themselves as trans. Not a precise description but it gets the jist across. The idea being, they're still in their shell, they haven't cracked it and grown into themselves yet. There are people out there who think masculine girls and feminine boys are just eggs, essentially trans and in denial about it. It can be a bit of a touchy subject. The above persons comment honestly gave me that vibe, so I wanted to say something about it

I started with thigh high socks

Easy to wear under long pants so you can be cozy and no one will know

[–] pixeltree@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

When you're wearing a skirt and you spin yourself around and it and it kinda flies out around you <3

[–] Aurora_TheFirstLight@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Experiment, if you like female clothing get as much as you can and if you really like it slowly add it in small ways into your outfits

Jewelry might also be cool earrings? What about a choker? F

[–] Picture_Pig@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 10 months ago
