I think it's more like seeing someone hatch XD
OH THAT IS WHY TRANS PEOPLE IN DENIAL ARE CALLED EGGS OMG I NEVER SAW THAT BEFORE!
When my egg broke, I became a chick
Okay, that was funny. That got a good "forced breath out of my nose" from me.
Actually it's kinda the other way around, I chose the hatching metaphor because of the egg terminology 😅
Yeah but the egg terminology exists because that's what it's like -- hatching
I think you're replying to a "chicken and egg" themed joke
You could be right, but I'm not sure they're what's happening here
Guys... This is becoming a chicken and egg problem..!
Maybe insects turning from larvae to imago is a better metaphor
