also nobody told me getting into binders is a nightmare

@berlioz

Lol the first time I put on a binder I was like oh God imma dislocated both my shoulders I'm stuck I'm stuck I'm stuck
But after a few days of practice I could slip into it pretty easy

I think my binder might be a bit too loose. Like around my stomach and stuff it’s a bit too loose and sticks out which makes it a bit obvious on tighter shirts :/

Ok so due to my undying curiosity, I really wanna know…

What does gender dysphoria feel like??? Since I have a hard time picturing emotions in my mind, could one of you explain it? It's totally cool if you don't want you, I'm just pretty curious.

Kind of like wearing clothes that you hate and they're too tight or uncomfortable but it's your flesh and you can't just take it off
It's an overwhelming feeling of wrongness and intense discomfort like you'd rather just stop existing because it feels like you're not even existing properly
If that makes sense

Honestly as long as it keeps the tiddies down, it’s working.

it's feeling out of place in your own body. it's a feeling that gets worse the more you think about it– the more aware i am of my own physical presence. it's a stress about every action. is my walk masc enough? are my shoulders fem enough? tiny things can seem staggeringly huge. things disappoint you and can send you spiraling. you find the perfect clothes that are exactly what you want to wear, and it's too tight for your chest, too small for your legs, you can see your cleavage, your bulge, or lack thereof and it makes you feel ill. it's dreading when someone says 'bring your attention to your body and breathe. how do you feel?' because the answer is petrified and angry and upset and disappointing and self-hating, because even after all of this and all of the desperation you feel, you're still 'faking it' and 'causing problems for real trans people'. at least, that's my experience, as a non-binary kid.

So I've thought about binding before (and not for all the time, just some days), and I was wondering if there are any compression sports bras that might be better alternatives for me personally.
Like I'm pretty small-chested, and I don't experience dysphoria, so binding seems like a little more trouble than necessary in my case.
Anyone have any recommendations as far as brands?

Tomboyx has these things called compression tops that aren't binders, they're pretty much compression sports bras?

I love Tomboyx, I could spend my entire bank account on that site

I have a message from Reed (@The-Sun)

  1. Their email is [email protected] and you should email them, I think they'd like it.

I want this week to be over, but also no because I don't want to deal with my family. So if I were to have one wish, it'd be for it to be Friday so that the school week is over and it is past Thanksgiving so no family gathering and left over pashed potatoes (The only thing I eat at)

@Queue

I always forget that thanksgiving isn't in October for most people
