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.

Avoid posting AI slop and point it out when you see it, but also be chill and civil about it and don't go on witch hunts or moral crusades about it. Rather than trying to "hold people to account," try to help people avoid it. Turning it into a shame game does not fit the vibe.

Love Y'all and thank you for following this community

Alright, now that it’s been brought up, can I just ask whether anyone else is tired of this obsession with shaving? I’m on the other side of the aisle and I can’t understand how hairlessness is meant to be attractive, pleasant to maintain, or (and this is the weirdest one) tactful. Women have body hair. Why it in vogue to pretend they don’t?

I shave my foot hair, but only because it catches on my socks. I’ve heard exactly one woman complaining about groin hair catching on fabric and that was because it had been shaved recently.

Women deserve body hair and large pants pockets, but that’s just my political opinion.

I don't shave for aesthetics, personally, I shave because I hate having body hair, it bothers me.

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 12 points 6 months ago

I sorta get it, but it’s really not for me to understand. I just don’t care for the ambient social pressure in the US.

[–] oxideseven@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 months ago

This. Body hair grosses me out.

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 16 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

Lots of men shave/wax, too. Most "hot" male hollywood stars are showing up with a completely hairless upper body to their shirtless scenes. There's definitely more pressure on women IRL, though.

[–] Whats_your_reasoning@lemmy.world 7 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

That's sad. Chest hair is hot.

I didn't think so back when I was a teen (a time when most boys my age didn't have chest hair yet, so it made sense.) But as I got older and it became age-appropriate, I started to really, really like it. There's nothing like grabbing a handful of chest hair in the midst of passion (provided that he's into that.)

I grew so tired of the obsession, I stopped shaving completely. I’m a woman for the record.

It hasn’t affected my ability to get laid at all. No one noticed while I was on a beach vacation. It’s generally way over hyped.

[–] shani66@ani.social 12 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

Feels better, both to have smooth skin and to feel smooth skin. Just looks better too ¯_(ツ)_/¯

same goes for men, too, society just doesn't pressure men the way it does women

[–] sneakypersimmon@lemmy.today 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)

It's very subjective. There's plenty of people who enjoy the look of natural hair on bodies.

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

*ding* Someone confident enough in their body to allow themselves to grow out their hair and age naturally? Oooh baby!

[–] sneakypersimmon@lemmy.today 3 points 6 months ago

Thank you! It really irks me to see the sentiment that shaved is better. Women don't need more messaging about how we're supposed to be hairless or that it's better to be shaved. Everyone can choose how to keep their bodies and we should all respect that.

[–] MML@sh.itjust.works 12 points 6 months ago

Don't shave, trim

[–] Whats_your_reasoning@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I'd like to add that pubic hair can make a big difference for sex as far as chaffing goes. Having sex with everything shaved leaves my skin irritated. Even just a tuft of hair helps prevent that from happening.

Point is, pubic hair serves a purpose. Besides, the challenge of shaving pubic hair in its entirety isn't worth it to me. You get maybe a day where it's smooth, then itchy bumps that you can't scratch in public for a week afterwards. Not to mention the struggle of shaving an intimate area that you can't easily see or reach, putting a razor super close to extremely sensitive body parts and hoping your hand doesn't slip... no, thank you! Just accept that I'm a grown woman and grown women have hair. If that's a hard line for you, then I guess you're not getting laid. ¯\(ツ)/¯

As a man, my experience with women's hair down there is positive generally. When it comes to oral pleasure however, it gets challenging to me personally.

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 7 points 6 months ago (6 children)

The only real issue with oral is that some hairs stay in your mouth.

[–] socsa@piefed.social 4 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

I am a fan of hair in general, but I will say that inhaling a pube and having it cling to the back of your throat is a pretty big mood killer.

Goes both ways, too lol. Trimming down below can be helpful for either gender if oral is involved.

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Sadly cannot confirm if it goes both ways

I usually shave my body hair in summer when i wear lighter clothes with more open skin. Its just easier to apply sun protecting cream to bare skin compared to hairy skin.

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

i don't care either way, but shaving all your pubic hair is unattractive imo.

[–] Gonzako@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Idgaf about bush hair tbh, I actually prefer it! It has a very nice hand feel. I do prefer shaved legs tho.

[–] brookedSmile@lemmy.blahaj.zone 34 points 6 months ago (5 children)

Honestly starting to shave more and more areas has made me hate body hair more and more. Idk why, but any hair that isnt my eyebrows or on top of head drives me absolutely insane now. It gets to be much to shave everything all the time, i do it in cycles. If i never grew it again, id be a happy girl

[–] remilia@lemmy.cyberia9.org 9 points 6 months ago

Honestly that's me as well anymore. I used to be more ambivalent about it.

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 7 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

I even got some kind of "razor burn" from professional waxing, and I kinda hate having all this body hair. FML

[–] brookedSmile@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 6 months ago (2 children)

OMG i have the most sensitive skin ive ever seen on anyone. Waxing and hair remover is a nogo, especially because the hair that grows from that skin is also very thick. Ive used hair remover and managed burning my skin before all the hair would come.

Ive tried waxing too but no matter how i do it it doesnt actually pull the hair. Maybe i dont let it grow enough? Idk

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 4 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

AFAIK you do need to grow it out a bit, especially when it's your first time (the finer hairs that grow from well-waxed skin should offer less resistance). That was one of the issues when I went to a professional waxing one time. The chemical hair remover I've tried has been useless, too. At this point, about the only thing I haven't tried is brazilian waxing (supposedly more skin-friendly) and laser hair removal, but both are beyond my financial means...

[–] brookedSmile@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 6 months ago

I appreciate the reply! Imma try the waxing after longer hair, even if it makes my skin hate me. I hope it helps, because i literally have to shave some areas twice a day if i wanna be hairless lol

[–] Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml 7 points 6 months ago (5 children)

Are you familiar with epilators? Not pleasant to use at first but extremely effective

[–] brookedSmile@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Ive heard about them but i havent gotten my hands on one yet, may have to soon tho, thanks!

[–] Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml 7 points 6 months ago

You're welcome!

So, I am a dude, thus take this with a grain of salt perhaps, but:

Find you a person who will be excited to, and capable of safely shaving/trimming you.

[–] tr0xy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

There are people who do that?

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

I mean, I've groomed some of my partners, some of them have groomed me.

So... yes?

There is at least one person?

Maybe I am very strange, I am autistic, so social norms are basically all arbitrary performances to me, but it seems to just make sense?

I'm fairly sure this is also a behavior that is done by a good deal of our ape ancenstors, mammals more broadly: Grooming and cleaning another is itself a kind of social bond, a way to establish and demonstrate trust and care.

It also just saves money; if you have or can teach a partner how to do things like... haircut touchups, eyebrow shaping, basic mani/pedicure type stuff, whatever, now you don't need to spend money on something you'd normally have to pay someone else to do.

And you can just like, have a conversation while doing this. Quality time, lol!

Works super duper well if one of your 'love languages' is just any kind of caring/affirmatory physical touch.

There goes my hero

Watch her as she goes

(Its hard out here for hairy mfuckers)

[–] redbrick@lemmy.world 14 points 6 months ago (3 children)

Very interesting...can they reach down that far??? I mean that distance looks almost a full body length from this perspective.

[–] remilia@lemmy.cyberia9.org 8 points 6 months ago (3 children)

Well... I've never had a bite on my scalp or my crotch, so I'm guessing they can't.

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 10 points 6 months ago

never had a bite on my scalp or my crotch

Same. (Well... mosquito bites, at least.)

[–] Ziglin@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago
[–] diffaldo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

What about bedbugs, can they reach there 🤔

[–] remilia@lemmy.cyberia9.org 3 points 6 months ago

...probably? I think? Never experienced them.

[–] sem@piefed.blahaj.zone 3 points 6 months ago

Ive watched these mosquitos. They land on top of the body hair, and then quickly climb down to the skin level, maybe taking a split second to do so.

Sometimes that's enough of a delay to detect and swat them.
