coming out was great with my friends but for my family, i was immediately invalidated when i came out as ace and also when i came out as trans. lmao. they're okay with me being ace now but we're still working on the trans thing. they seem to think they're doing a good job. they are not

hey! so i live in a hot climate (50F is a winter temperature for us). i used to deal with the binding issue by just wearing very loose and baggy clothes with a sports bra (tomboyx compression top). my chest was too big to bind effectively and my chest tissue was too dense for tape. good luck buddy! no matter what you do, dont forget to drink a shit ton of water :)
aw I feel ya buddy. (the tomboyx one has branding along the band and a printed-on label so it's not the one you have!) yeah, shelves.........i feel u. what i liked about the tomboyx one is that, at least for my build and tissue density, it provided support while keeping shit out of the way. it wasn't shelfy but also my tissue was more of a 'two heavily divorced households' situation rather than a 'friends who meet in the middle all the time' one hahaha.
is top surgery something you're planning on having? :0
