Breast Forms

Hi, I have often thought of getting breast forms but it always seemed a waste of money. I make do with a couple of ankle hi socks filled with rice. My Bra size is 44B which is a bit larger than I would like but I am not a great Bra shopper. I bought the Bra at wal Mart one day when the store was almost empty. When I took it to the checkout counter I almost had a heart attack. The lady took it out of the box and waved it around to open it up. I was beginning to think it might be illegal for a man to buy a Bra but she was only checking to see that the Bra in the box was not a more expensive one slipped in to cheat the store. Strangely enough the Bra fit pretty well the only problem is that now when I look down I can't see my feet. Oh well you can't have everything they say. I wonder why not?

It is interesting that a 44B keeps you from seeing your feet. I use to wear a 42B&C and that wasn't a problem. My 42J keeps me from seeing anything below me. The projection is about 6" depending on the bra. I guess it depends all in what you are trying to achieve. With my B&C cup it felt like I had two lumps sticking out, know feel or movement. That has all changed with larger silicone breast forms. It is easy to purchase both forms and bras on line. Most companies ship very discretly.

Hi again,

Now that I am retired my opportunities to dress fully are few and far between but I do persevere and occasionally I dress in the garage and drive out. My wife is very fragile and doesn't get around well so I don't worry too much about getting caught. I suppose that one day I will get a pair of breast forms just to enjoy the feel of them. Not being able to see my feet is of course an exaggeration brought on by looking down the first time and being confronted by a pair of breasts.

I was surprised to see such a quick response to my post. I have only been a member here for a few days and looking at the dates on most of these posts I got the feeling that things are slow here. I expect I will peek in here pretty much on a daily basis since being retired gives me a bit more time to do things on line that I couldn't do at work.

Vieja :rolleyes::D

I would strongly recommend you try silicone breast forms. The feel is great and I love the weight. When I first went to a C cup I thought it was perfect, but soon found out bigger is better. I then went to DDD which weigh 2.5lbs ea. The additional weight caused them to bounce with my every movement I made. Not being satisfied I now wear a J cup which is a size 18. They weigh 4.5lbs ea and I now know I am wearing something. The only draw back is out in public you are very noticeably.

Hey,

I've been using forms for a while, I absolutely adore them. a couple of good places in Europe,

http://www.special-trade.eu/store/silicon-...reast-forms.php

this place is in germany - the lady in charge is very helpful indeed. if you are in germany they even have a fitting room! they also supply medical adhesive for fixing the form directly to your skin. it is quite pricey though

http://softcaresilicone.org/index.php?page...=41〈=en

this place is in the uk and i have a pair of these. they are very soft indeed. i would recommend searching ebay for them first though as they sell the same forms on there for a lot less money, if you're lucky to catch an auction not buy it now.

i'm a 36B by the way, with triangulars, hmmmm.

take care x

Hi,

I'm also new to these forums and am still perusing through them :P

I'm looking at buying some breast forms and have my wife's permission :)

I haven't decided what size to buy, i don't want to go too big so they look out of proportions i guess i will have to do some research.

Im also thinking of purchasing the self adhesive type although they are expensive they also appear to be closest you can get to having breasts without surgery or hormones. B)

Hi,

once I had a DD form but for me it already looked to big. I have a natural breast with 42 inch that is 44-46. With the DD form it look like to torpedos like Madonna with his special bra. So not real. I think a B or C would be right for me. Just to increase the size by 2 or 4 inch.

The idea with the socks filled with rice is good. I will try this.

Greetings

Nelly

I just bought forms though the mail. I got B-Cups, and use old bras that were my wifes that are the right band size (38) but not cup size © but they seem to work really well and are comfortable. Not wanting to spend money on bra's till after the HRT kicks in. :D

Well, I don't have them any more, but I'm buying another pair fairly soon - I used the silicone enhacners that women use to go up one cup size. They feel great, aren't too big and if you are over weight like I am you might have a bit of development there already - I do!

Hummmmm :huh:

I found out I was TS rather than CD. Strangely, I never used the big silicone forms when I was cross dressing, I used forms that I had made or the NuBra, silicone type. I have no idea of what cup size they gave me - but they were large enough to fill me out. That is what I so desired then. ;)

Now in transition I wear a bra all the time. I have a little development, about a small B, but because I am losing a lot of weight I find I need to use enhancers - silicone type, the ones women use to add size in their bras - it adds two cup sizes, so techniclally I am a small D cup. Because I am tall and wear xl or women's 18W, a D-cup is not huge, more like a B on a medium sized woman. :D

I also bought silicone enhancer breasts that actually self adhere, which were advertised on the internet for women but seem more like for transsexual or CD types. This was after I wore out the NuBra. These actually are supposed to be D cup, but are much larger somehow. The weight is perfect. Even my wife says they look and feel natural on me.

So I have my bra on, with the smaller enhancers when active, changing to the self-adhesive to sleep, and on those rare occasions I like to go braless. Going braless is a real experience, as I tend to sag a bit and they go every which way like the real thing. I guess this is because they are on top of my real breast tissue. They also have small nipples built in.

I am between a 42 and 44 band. A 42 D and a 44 C are actually about the same size bra. Because of the weight loss I am down-sizing to 38 and 40 band size, and use a C cup, which is more natutural, but depends on the brand. I have trouble finding one with a good fitting strap. Strangely, the string straps seem to stay up better on me, but dig in a bit more. I cannot get the formed cup or lightly padded bras to look right, so I try to stay with a natural soft cup - which will show the nipples a bit. I liked that as a CD but its a bit of a problem as a full time woman. :P

Probably more information than you wanted to know. Its really different in transition, I never knew. For example I need to have a drawer full of bras now - I also need to keep them clean and fresh. And I just go into the stores and buy them. The clerks will even help you out if you present yourself as a transsexual, they are just cautious their other customers may be offended seeing a male in the fitting room, so I ask for a good time to come when they aren't so busy. And I buy expensive bras - $40 and up. They fit and hold their shape better. I had to leave the Walmart shopping behind and switch to Department Stores. :rolleyes:

Things have definately changed for me. :lol:

Mia, I enjoy the weight and bounce the J cup gives me. I don't have a problem with "t" shirts and seldom wear a tank top. I wear a 42 bra and even though a J cup is large it fits my frame. It gives me a projection of about 6". I don't like anything smaller than a DDD. I do wear a C cup occasionally but get very little enjoyment it just makes me less noticeable. When I wear a bra I want the feel of a woman not just the look. haha Fran

Mia, Happy New Year to you also. Curious, do you wear a padded bra for your A cup or something else. Fran

When I was 16 I had a pair of those breast enhancers of which I had to get rid of thanks to my Mom. This Month I got a Pair of Silicone Breasts that make me a 38 C. My first reaction was all "Whoa, these are huge" but now I've grown into them a lil and wouldn't change them.

Glad to her you like your C- cup silicone breasts. I don't know why more of us don't wear them. They feel and look great.

I like rubinesque women and want to be like them, therefore I'm happy to see that I have many 'kindred' spirits in the J cup department, as that's what I've finally settled on for my size, simply because I love the 'noticeable' feminine feeling they give me, and figure that if I'm going to go, I might as well go all the way (heh). The cost of some decent J cup 'falsies' is a bit intimidating though. I suppose I'll have to stick to my homemade "J's" for now, but I would love to upgrade to the realistic, even when nude, ones. Sadly, the three hundred dollar price-tag is a bit much for me right now.

deglerious, save up for the J cups. I love mine and so much enjoy the weight and bounce. I also have smaller ones when I don't want to be noticed as much.

I'm certainly wanting to do that, but they are a bit pricey and there are other things I'd like as well [sigh], I suppose that I'll have to really think on this one...but they do sound so delicious...

      Whether it is Sunday or not - may I ask, how long does the whole process take?    My every-morning basic 'beauty routine' - shave face/wash/hair/other grooming already takes over 10 minutes. My wife is basically beating down the door, lol!

      We did pretty well for almost 40 years.   But by then we were kinda moving in different directions spiritually and on some other things.  I might have moved the most significantly.  I think my trans woman was trying to assert herself, although it still took a little more time for the egg to crack.     I was the one who moved out (although we had been sleeping in separate rooms for about a year).  I was satisfied to just be separated, but after a bit she filed for divorce.  I didn't contest it - our kids were all adults by then.  She remarried, I haven't.  Now her husband has died and she is back in this area.   Yeah, we are still friends, but sometimes it's hard for me if I've been around her.  I do miss her.  She uses my now name and gender for me.   I am lonely.  I think I could remarry, maybe, if I found the right person, but I don't see much chance of that.  I'm in my 70's, this is a pretty conservative area, and I am a transgender woman.  So this is how it is - at least for me.

      That is am what I planning on. Take the defensive driving class after the conviction and all goes away aside from the fine I pay. My vehicle is a commercial vehicle (10,000+ pound diesel pickup truck with commercial plates), but since I exclusively use it for personal use so I do not need or have a CDL.

      I seems like I am dreading going to my job more each day. So, I take it as a sign to jump ship. All the time I expect to be chastised. It is not a good way to have a job. I am on the hunt for a new one, however nothing has surfaced.   Kymmie

      I'm currently on the ballot for an open US Representative seat in Portland Oregon.  Here are some of the news stories on me:   Rachel Lydia Rand on Ballotpedia: https://ballotpedia.org/Rachel_Rand#Campaign_themes KATU 2 (ABC) Know Your Candidates 2024: Rachel Lydia Rand https://www.katu.com/news/know-your-candidates/rachel-lydia-rand-d-congress-district-3 League of Women Voters Candidate Forum for US Representative https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOoS39CTEOw KOIN 6 Written Interview | top issues, what's going right https://www.koin.com/news/politics/rachel-rand-on-running-for-district-3-top-issues-whats-going-right/ League of Women Voter's Interview with Rachel Lydia Rand https://youtu.be/V5o9RKE3WVo     This is my third time running for US Rep.  Campaigning is very challenging for me because I only have two family members still alive and I've spent less than 2 weeks with them in my life and I have virtually no social network to start with and I don't belong to any social media sites.  I haven't even been able to post here and on sites like it because of rules about self-promotion.   I'm boldly saying in these videos that I want to be appointed to vice-president in the next 5 years.  My platform is about addressing climate change and everything that comes with it.  Population decline is the number one proposal I have and it is very, very scary and controversial for most people.  The way I see it is that oil is more than a fuel we burn in our cars, it's a substance we pave our roads with.  And it will run out, so at some point in the future, most of these roads are going to go away and we'll have a much harder time distributing food.  I play chromatic pennywhistle and I'm this iconic whistleblower politician saying that we will not be able to support 10 billion people at the end of the century on wind and solar power.  Even solar panels are made with oil and there isn't much difference between a wind turbine and a dam.  If we can build skyscrapers and nuclear power, then you'd think we'd be able to figure out how to make a wind turbine 100 years ago.  It's simply not as efficient.  The numbers I've crunched say that if we have one child for every two women for the next 40 years and then go back to normal replacement rate, we'll get our population down to 2 billion by 2099 which is where the world was at in 1950.  If we don't do that and stay on this current path for the projected 10 billion by 2100, then when oil runs out and climate change raises sea levels and floods coastal cities, humanity is going to be in a very uncivil situation.   I'm sorry that I'm not making a huge issue of transgender rights.  Of course I'm here to support our community.  I'd be highly visible on our national and international scene as a transwoman.  I tend to focus on engineering realities rather than these social issues.  It upsets me that people take engineering for granted.  People tend to just get in their cars and think that there will be some space age technical solution that will make it all OK.   OK, that's my rant for the day :-)  Coffee is on.  4:26am.  The ABC station is interviewing me again in a few hours and people can vote for me today.  Please consider spreading the word.  I'm only one person and it takes an incredible amount of effort to keep my political thinking and platform going.   Sincerely, Rachel Lydia Rand Jazz Musician | Software Engineer

      "Exstatic" is an adjective that means feeling great rapture or delight. For example, "His wife gave birth to their first child, and he was ecstatic about it". Synonyms of "ecstatic" include rapturous, entranced, enthusiastic, and frenzied.
