    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
