An egg is a trans person in denial.
There's a meme community called egg_irl (!egg_irl@lemmy.blahaj.zone)
(I hope I'm linking it correctly)

At first, I read the title like that "I am the captain" meme. ๐๏ธ
I've been on HRT for over a year and just recently got my first skirt and thigh-highs. Absolutely worth it! I've not worn them out-and-about yet, but I will eventually.
I'm much more happy and confident with HRT, but I live in a deep red state. So...yeah. I am wearing fem clothes in public though, including a bra, but it's more subtle. Although my breast growth is forcing my hand here. ๐ ๏ธ
You could also make a new post that labels the available options (letter, number, emoji, symbol, or combination) and asks the commenter to begin their comment with the label associated with their gender identity.

I've been on HRT for over a year, and I feel so much better. I have ESP! (Estradiol Spironolactone Progesterone) ๐ฅฐ๏ธ
I need bottom surgery. I think about it constantly. My recent meme on /traa expresses my emotional roller-coaster pretty well.

Here's a currently working link from another invidious instance:
How the hell do you even come to that conclusion.
Insecurity. I'll admit that seeing people in drag can still make me feel uneasy and insecure in myself. It reminds me of my physical flaws. Since I was a little kid, I felt that "guy in drag" is what I'd look like if I tried to be at all feminine, and seeing a guy in drag has been a reminder of that feeling.
So yeah, insecurity caused by internalized homophobia and transphobia can lead to weird rationalizations for feelings of dread.
Obviously, there's nothing wrong with drag. This is a personal issue that needs to be resolved internally.
Does your emphasis of the word "male" imply that you are uncertain and still questioning? Just curious.
