Fun facts about Link and LoZ games in general! Link was designed to be pretty ambiguous gender-wise in the first game so any player could identify with him. And Link just generally being a very appealing character for anyone of any gender has just kinda kept up throughout every game. And in some games do other fun stuff along those lines, like how Zelda will take on a more masculine appearance and go by the name Sheik. Or how in BOTW, to enter a female only village, all you gotta do is put on women's clothes that don't really function as a "disguise" at all. Can even change right in front of the guards and they'll let you in. I know it's more just a gameplay mechanic thing but a lot of people like to see it as a funny n cute "oh my mistake right this way" kinda scenario. In general lotta trans and lgbt folk, myself included, just like the lax way the series approaches gender and self presentation at times, even if not all of it is very intentional.

Getting correctly gendered is such a challenge. I'm FTM and I've taken to wearing a large he/him badge at work because so many customers were calling me a lady. Even then, in one day I got called 'doll' three times and 'sweetie' once (and 'she' about fifteen times). Then an elderly lady came in and made my day by calling me a 'lad'. 😊

I hate how hard it is. You can tell someone once and they just instantly forget sometimes. I remember why I used to never even bother trying to be correctly gendered. Because it's almost not worth it to even ask sometimes. I'm probably overthinking things here but I kind of see each "she" as a little argument saying, "you are not actually who you feel you are". On some level I put it into my big internal battle with internalised anti-transness. It's hard.

I was in the women's choir in high school and one of the other alto II's told me she was saving up for a breast reduction (she had F cups and it was hell on her back). She mentioned that her family and most of her friends thought she was crazy to want to do that. I said screw them, I'd cut mine off in a heartbeat. She laughed and thanked me for being supportive. Yeah, I was supportive on accident. That was just how much I hated my chest, even when I didn't know what transgender was.

She doesn't refer to my by anything gendered much, so nothing has really changed. She's supportive though! My other grandma? Super supportive! Uncle? Super supportive!

I'm terrified to come out to my parents after around a year ago my step-mother was talking about a trans "friend" of hers. My step-mom went and continuously misgender her, and going on and on about how "he' had such a wonderful singing voice, I have no idea why 'he' would throw that all away just because he wants to be a woman!?". also after she told me "If you ever convince yourself you are a man, that would be fine. but you'll always be my baby girl" (I didn't know why that made me so scared and uncomfy until a few months later, after realizing I *am* trans) the year before that, my step-sister was experimenting with her own gender identity and identified as non-binary for a little while. she eventually decided she wasn't trans, which is perfectly valid. But after she figured out her identity, my step-mom yelled at her about how she should be asking permission and consulting *her* about this. Imma stay in the closet until I move out, that's for sure. just 4 1/2 short years

Yeah puberty was a disappointment to say the least. 10 years later and I'm just now about to come out to my therapist so I can get on hrt when I'm old enough. My parents got me a binder and some of my teachers at school call me my correct name. Tomorrow I have therapy. Wish me luck because its gonna be terrifying. I've taken to writing her lists of things I wanna talk about so I might use that as a way to jump start the conversation about it but still. I live in Arkansas and we arent the kindest to trans people. My therapist is accepting of me being bi and wiccan but sometimes being trans is just "too far" or "too much" for some people.

i think egg irl is technically for people who are questioning their gender, regardless of if they turn out trans or not (which more people should do tbh even if they think its likely they stay cis bc its a good bit of selfreflection and its valid either way it turns out) but as reddit usually does it goes very off topic about trans people who were questioning and retrospect on how in denial they were so that has shifted to be the main topic now. subreddits do tend to shift a ton in subjectmatter or purpose over time

For the most part I'm happy and comfortable (and even sometimes enjoy!) being a cis woman. I'm 6'2" and fairly broad-shouldered... For a minute in my late teens I was both using meth and a vegetarian so I was skinny and gave modeling a go, I just don't have that drive for anything, least of all modeling. But around age 12-13 I thought I'd make a pretty awesome guy, tall and blonde/blue, pretty athletic... But I hated myself when people mistakenly called me "Sir"😞 Now I'm mid-forties and have had some BS life thrown at me, actually had a leg amputated less than a year ago (crush injury to my foot, was bed-ridden for a year cuz the podiatrist wouldn't be making any $$$ off me if we cut the damn thing off) and I'm glad it's gone. Adjusting to this new body is a whole 'nother ball of wax. I was prepared to work hard (which I did after knee reconstructive Sx 12yrs ago) but wow! I thought I knew, I hadn't a clue! I spent so much time researching and following KZbinrs... And for about 4-5 months post op I really felt unattractive and nonsexual and unf***able, like I had been reduced to a crippled piece of meat. Lol, I'm glad it's picked up though... I've been insatiable 😆💕❤️

For us it's about the ambiguity of his appearance, which has resulted in lots of non gamers thinking Link is princess Zelda. Since making that meme I've learned I'm far from the only person that looks at Link and wants to steal his gender ^^ P.S.: I deliberately used Twilight princess Link for that meme, because he looks so cool

You may not to be able to transition now but you could possibly do smaller things now like pronouns ect, clothing and hormones. Not everyone needs to complete a full transition, sometimes hormones ect is enough. I know you probably are already doing as such, sorry if that is the case the only thing I can do from this keyboard is wish you well and as easy it is to say but difficult to do, you have to focus on the here and now, focusing on long term goals too much can make you well even more depressed. You will get there eventually. I`m sorry I can`t do anything to help your situation. Stay strong, stay well.

I know this is no were near equivalent and your story is much harder. I myself am a cis guy but I do have autism and due to this people have treated me like shit for things outside of my control. People will be cruel and dickish no matter what you do but don`t let them control your actions. Some people are simply not worth knowing, that can be family or friends and it is tough but you have to walk away from some people like that, I had to myself. As for work colleges, class mates, teachers and other people that are assholes but avoidable the best you can hope for is to report it and for those responsible to take action although there will be times were one will try. At university I had lectures talk down to me like a child and I even got a first class honours in my degree, not matter how hard I work people will always treat me like an idiot. I message to you is do not live by someone else`s ideals, you have to live for yourself and accept yourself. This is coming from a guy who came close to taking his own life twice, no one has it easy and some have it harder than most but that doesn`t mean you don`t matter, do what you have to do. You do not have to justify yourself to anyone else. I have been through several bleak moments in my life and I will probably see some more in the future but I will endure, these experiences put us in a position to help others going through tough times. But remember all of these struggles in the grand scheme of things are temporary and you will if you continue find those that will accept you as you are. I for one do not care that you are trans or not, I care about your wellbeing as someone who has struggled as well. I love you and I hope your decisions are your own uncorrupted not matter how hard they are to make.

As a Legend of Zelda player, I think what the Link meme was trying to say was that Link is a man and is very handsome and pretty at the same time. He has both feminine and masculine characteristics and can be kind of androgynous depending on which version of him. He did also crossdress in Breath of the Wild. It's almost as if he can be anything he wants XD I think that's why transmascs, transfems, and enbies find him so interesting/ want to be him.

On the first one, reminds me of a interaction I had in Toontown. I tend to make both male & female characters, I make them as their own person, not an extension of me but I am non-binary, thanks to some updates in the game, I can present enby now but this happened before that & the particular toons used in the interaction, I consider one male & the other female because their names come from songs, one being named after a car in a song but the song used female pronouns to describe the car so I made her female, the other toon I have is named after a dog that in the song is male & since it’s a country song, I have him looking like a cowboy. I’m playing as the dog, Ol’ Red when this guy is insulting the build I did for him & I was explaining that it’s just a fun thing & that I’m doing a certain challenge with it & he’s going on & on about how I wouldn’t be able to do stuff in the game because of it & I told him that I didn’t want to do that stuff on this toon but I have a different ones that can do that & he didn’t believe me. As long as toons are on different accounts, you can run more than one at a time so I signed into my other toon, Little Goose Coupe, she’s a duck & happened to be wearing clearly feminine clothing when I did & I teleported to myself & explained that this is my other toon & he went, “why on earth are you playing as a chick? That’s so gross!” I asked why he thought it was gross & he responded with, “because you’re a dude!” I’m afab & someone believing that I’m male put a smile to my face but I tried explaining that I’m neither male or female & he was not getting it & it devolved into him trying to figure out what’s in my pants pretty much but asking in weird sorts of ways because of the limited chat dictionary & the fact that it’s a kids game so a lot of what he wanted to say, he couldn’t. Thankfully, there were a lot of witnesses & we all reported him. On the note of being drawn to flag colors, I’m ace & known for a long time, also, purple happens to be one of my favorite colors so it works out, I end up going for stuff that happens to be the color of the ace flag, a lot of the time it’s because “I’m ace & I like that this is ace colored” but other times it’s “PURPLE!!!! MINE!!!!” As for the dream thing, I had a dream where I was a boy back when I was 13 & I shared it with a friend because I really enjoyed it & that friend told me that’s weird & disturbing so I kept quiet on that stuff for so many years, tried pushing down the feelings & ignoring it, it was a pain but glad I know it’s a normal thing.

Thank you." And just leave it like that. Idk. Still working on the wording. Also a weird thing happened about a month ago where I was setting up a profile for my mom on my paramount+ account. I had already taken the cat pfp which she was trying to convince me to change so she could have it. She then points at the nonbinary character from one of the new Star Trek shows and goes "I think you would relate to this character. Maybe. They started off as a she at the beginning of the show and is now a they." And I'm like "Oh, ok. Cool." And then I changed the subject. Internally, I was like "Mom! I am still figuring this out for myself. Don't get ahead of me here. I haven't even totally accepted that I am nonbinary." Lol. I told my sister about this and we just laughed. We love her. She tries even if she doesn't totally understand. Lol.

Lol saying something is lucky, and presenting any "weird/odd behavior" as a superstition always gets a pass in my experience. People will legitimately make the oddest things a tradition because they think it's lucky so basically anything goes, especially if it's something fairly simple like a game character.

I mean there are a lot of reasons to pick the female characters over males, for example screen space, female models tend to take up way less screen space than male models and so any action game wither it be platformers or action RPGs choosing the female model makes seeing what is going on easier. I always picked female characters and I always assumed most guys did as well because well you are looking at your character for 40+ hours and it is nicer to look at, I didn't realize I was the odd one out till just looking it up now. I mean sure I have always felt more connected to women than men subconsciously though it was only more recently that I consciously realized it, but still I always assumed that most guys also picked female characters because of being both nicer to look at and having an advantage of smaller screen space and sometimes even smaller hitboxes which made things like jumping puzzles in Guild Wars 2 way easier since you had more room to work with, I didn't realize I was in the minority.

10:24 This is so real. My brother has said transphobic stuff before, but when I came out as agender, he admitted he hasn't really understood gender-related stuff in the past but that he supports and loves me. Sometimes it's very alien to people and they don't WANT to educate themselves on it until it's relevant to someone they care about (not saying they shouldn't want to be educated anyway, but sometimes people's reactions really will surprise you if you have a good relationship with that person)

I remember the "what would you look like as a boy/girl?" thing. It was awesome (although not gender inclusive). I looked so hot as a guy... I define my gender as "queer" so often because i can't be bothered explaining to my cis-het family. But if I were to be specific I'd say femme demiboy. I always relate to stuff in a "boy" mindset, i have serious penis envy which means there are so many questions, but i present female mostly and i don't want to transition. My partner is cis heteroflexible and aromantic and he is 100% ok with it. 🤘 The therapist meme was AWFUL. People often see therapists as experts, they ARE NOT. YOY ARE THE EXPERT ON YOURSELF, SEEK AFFIRMATIVE SUPPORT and LGBTQIA+ GSRD THERAPISTS! And if a therapist says something that is homophobic/transphobic - YOU HAVE THE POWER to challenge them (if you feel able to do so), WALK OUT their office without saying another word, or when the session ends you can CHOOSE to never go back. You owe them nothing and no therapist worth their salt should put their personal views, opinions or beliefs on you and your therapy. The number one rule of therapy is to be ETHICAL and DO NO HARM. If they do, they don't deserve your time or money. Go find a person who will hold you in positive regard. YOU DESERVE IT.

The whole “doesn’t everyone want to be girl mc in games” happened with one of my friends😭 I’ll call them Jayden for this little story I don’t remember what we were talking about but they said Jayden: “Honestly do girls relate to any girl characters in anything?” Me: “yes…?” Jayden: “really? Cuz I don’t” Me:”…Jayden-“

It’s a bit concerning that I related to so many of these because I’m agender (at least right now) and when I started trying to figure it out I thought I might be trans but then the actual idea of being a guy didn’t feel like me at all so I figured there’s no way I could be trans, but maybe I was wrong…

I'm with you. A lot of the Egg stuff sort of ignores agender folx (and sometimes nb folx as well). We're fine. We each know ourselves better than anyone else does, and we're allowed to change how we see ourselves or not just as everyone else is.

I think why so many trans things are so relatable to we agender peeps (hi, I'm agender too!) is because of the shared experience of not relating to the gender society says is supposed to go with the body we're born with. And while as an agender that translates more to just not really relating or associating with gender at all, it still comes from some similar foundations that makes trans memes super relatable.

I remember seeing the movie Dogma as a kid and Alan Rickman's (RIP) character has no genitals, smooth as a barbie/Ken doll. I remember thinking at the time "damn, must be nice, you wouldn't have to be a girl or a boy" and I would think back to that from time to time and fantasize about the idea of being without physical gender markers. Once I discovered the term Agender, a few years back, a lot of things about myself/my take on gender growing up suddenly made sense to me.

When I realised I was trans this was my reaction: "Oh crap, f*ck... this is real." And my second thought was: "Oh crap.. now I have to come out again." I came put as bi when I was 14 and all I could see now was this near future when I had to come out with something even more unconventional. It's like I for years had all the pieces of the puzzle but couldn't put them together before, and now I see the whole picture. I have started coming out to some people and now it's less crap and more... just hard and me being nervous before every conversation I have about it. Eventuelly, when my camera starts to work again - for some reson my camera is not getting along with windows 11 on my new computer - I'll come out on my youtube channel. Wish me luck. 😁 I really relate to the " MFW..." post. I remember crying when some trans guy on youtube announced that he's finally getting top surgery. I talked to a drag king friend about it and said "you know when you as an empath just feel so much joy for other people that you cry with them", she was like "yeah...". I said "well, I cried when x announced this." She said: "no dude, that's not your empathy, that's you being trans. I saw that as well and I didn't cry." And me and her are both criers so I was like... "Oh. I just thought 'I am sooo empathic', haha". She looked me in the eye and said "No, well you are an empath, but crying every time a trans person hits a milestone is not because of that..." She said: "I know I am not trans because even though I love dressing up and putting on a drag show, afterwards I can't wait to get out of the clothes because HAVING a beard and chest hair for too long makes me dysphoric, I just want to go back to being me."

The first meme made me chuckle because that's a very similar thing I had to finding out I was a lesbian. Whenever games let you "romance" a character, I always had/have lesbian relationships. I always told myself as a kid it was just because "well, I'm a girl and I trust girls and can be more comfortable with them." Well, I know the real reason now. 🏳️‍🌈

I've never played any of the Zelda games, however I relate to that meme SO HARD. Basically the thing with Link, at least for me, is that he is in-between that area or being feminine and masculine. He's both yet neither depending on how you look at him. Maybe he looks more masculine, maybe he looks more feminine to some! And as a Transmasc myself, I ALWAYS gender envied Link.
