Welcome to femcel memes. A place where anybody can post memes that fit the vibe.
Warning: We have a tendency to post things that may at times come from a self-deprecating perspective or things that are funny coming from another queer person. This space will always be a safe place for transfems, non-binary people, people with a feminine gender expression (GNC or otherwise) or anybody else in the LGBT Community to come together and share about our experiences but we truly feel that laughing about the sometimes silly and embarrassing parts the queer experience can help bring us together. We never mean offense or harm in anything posted but rather they are satirical takes coming from queer people.
A note about 'Egging': Our community is mostly made up of transfem individuals, and as such most memes posted will be posted with the intention of having a transfem perspective. However, regardless of gender identity, all feminine presenting individuals are welcome here. Whether that means you're NB, GNC, transmasc, or any other identity, you are welcome here. It is not our intention or goal to invalidate these identities. If something makes you uncomfortable, please feel free to report the post and I will address your concerns on an individual level. For more information regarding the problems with 'Egg-culture', please see Here.
Love Y'all and thank you for following this community

Whether or not one is heteronormatively attractive enough to let out one's thighs shouldn't be a thing. Showing skin in public aught to be freed from the male gaze's judgement. Ah but there's so much internalized prejudice to peel off. Maybe one day.
I mean... guys wearing basically short shorts just literally was pretty much standard athletic wear in the 70s/80s/90s, roughly.
Maybe I just I don't get a lot of this cuz I'm an autistic cis dude who just does not care what 95% of people think about most things... but... it kinda just seems like fashion cycles to me.
Like I guess we're back to mom jeans now, now ... so, theoretically we'll be back to slim fit / skin tight pants in maybe another 10 or 15 years?
Also, at least in my own experience, it was usually the self styled pretty/popular girls that would be giving the most shit to a 'less conventionally attractive' girl trying to pull off the same look or fit as them.
If you as a guy pointed at a gal and made fun of their looks, everyone now hates you, you are widely known as an asshole.
But if you're a pretty/popular gal, and you insulted another gal (or guy's) outfit, well, now its actually debatable as to whether or not you 'had a point tho' or 'were just being a bitch'.
That would be a discussion that actually happens, is allowed to happen, as compared to the ssme thing but a guy started it... in that situation, 99% certainty everyone agrees the guy is an asshole.
Granted, I have not been inside a highschool since the mid 2000's, so... maybe things are significantly different now in a way I do not understand.
I certainly do not know how this dynamic plays out in younger folks with significantly different gender norms that exist nowadays... back in my day, being just gay or lesbian or bi was extremely controversial... we didn't really even know trans people or intersex people could even exist.
I didn’t even know that bi was an option
My daughter got out of high school two years ago and her opinion is that the manosphere did a lot of damage. Misogyny, queerphobia et all are making a big comeback under the sheep's clothing of "dark humour", "we can't say anything nowadays" and of course "muh liberties".
I want to add that I don't have the knowledge to explain this properly but I feel like the male gaze or patriarchal oppression in general is more complicated than man VS woman. It's a whole scheme of thinking pervading society at large.
