Has anyone here tried tight lacing to get a more feminine look to your body? I've been seeing a couple things on it and I'm very curious to try it! I love the hourglass shape it gives you!

Read up on it and use common sense.

I use a bodice that laces in my Renaissance Faire outfit. My 40 waist down to a 34. But it takes about 30 minutes to slowly get there. Plus the corset bodice is lambskin so it conforms to my body. I have been doing this for several years - and staying in costume for as much as 8 hours at a time, and have had no bad experiences. Now cinching down more than that might cause harm. Essentially you are rearranging your internal organs and not so much moving fatty deposits around. It's harder to eat but the breathing is not a big problem.

So be careful. You may want to start with something not too expensive. My bodice piece cost me $160.

Back to the subject. the following site is a good start. I don't agree that the tight lacing gives a permanent body shape change. Also - I would never try more than a 6" reduction if you are full figured (less if you are smaller). Read this carefully - and understand this is just a source, not a recommendation on beginning tight lacing.

Lizzy, You are too cute and just a little hot as well. That seems like so much fun, and if anybody gets too fresh i see the sword is on the ready. Would love to join you sometime although i'm not sure i'd want to go to the extremes they mention in your link.

Hugs very tight around the waist,

Charlie

I apologize - I posted those photographs to show that tight lacing used . It was a 6" reduction in circumference. It was reasonably comfortable but I was glad at the end of the day to take it off.

And I agree - thank you for the compliments but it would be best to stay with the thread!

The owner of Romantasy.Com* in Northern CA is a frequent presenter at Transgender Conferences (Southern Comfort, Be All and others) whom I have met. She usually presents on both the tight lacing and gives a couple of sessions on feminine manners for TG's.

I have tried a couple of corsets on, but I have a spinal lordosis and the things dont fit me right.

*I'd get into trouble with the T&C if I posted that as a direct link because it shows the corsets as underwear.

From what I've read, it's something you have to seriously commit to. The girls I've seen who do tight lacing have altered their diet and pretty much wear some kind of corset or belt 12 hours a day. It's not something you just start doing but it's something you work up to doing.

I understand and its something I'm willing to be committed to, I want a feminine look to my body, not all boxy and stuff.

      Do you feel encouraged when you give encouragement to others?

      By April Marie · Posted

      Absolutely. Being able to encourage, to help, others is so empowering. I've been helped by so many people over the years, I love being able to pay it forward.

      Good morning All. Coffees on.

      By April Marie · Posted

      Good morning, everyone!!   A busy day ahead for me - need to cut the grass and then pick up the clippings. The grass grows so quickly this time of year. I cut almost 7 acres so that will take up most of my day. At least I can get some sun on my legs and arms!!   Time for another cup of coffee as I catch up here.   Enjoy this beautiful day we've been given.

      I started shaving my legs years ago - I started getting an occasional mild contact rash on my shins. That became my excuse to shave them for both me and my wife. Over time, the rash didn't expand...but my shaving did. Full legs....groin......chest......and finally my arms. Keeping the rash at bay was my excuse until I came out to my wife. Now I typically do a full shave on Sunday mornings. The hair is lighter but I just feel better with it gone - it helps with the dysphoria and dysmorphia. I will also typically do a chest touch-up mid week since I notice the growth more there.   I wish someone would invent a pill that would stop hair growth everywhere except on your head.

      Good morning All. Coffees on.

      By Willow · Posted

      Good morning.   im not sure where the time went.  I had a decent nights sleep,  didn’t  tell Alexa to let me sleep another 5 minutes,  I didn’t do anything extra but it’s almost time to leave and I just got here.  Definitely only a one cup morning.    I have the overhead console out of the Ford. It needed some repairs with toothpicks and glue.  Been sitting all night t for the glue to harden. I’m always to impatient with glue but not this time.  I want it to hold. Ok the next owner won’t be able to change the lightbulbs however in my defense, the are led so they will likely still work when the car goes to the salvage yard.   gotta go. Not as much on my plate at work today but it’s always busy.   Willow

      Are VPNs banned?

      By Lydia_R · Posted

      Yes, my programmer friends and I think that antivirus software is a virus.  It's constantly searching your system and slowing it down.  If you install your own OS and software on your machine, and you make backups of your personal files, then you can recover from viruses in an hour or two.  My computer is 10+ years old and is working as good as the first day I had it.   As long as my computer is doing what I want it to do, I don't care if someone is spying on my system.

      Speeding ticket

      By awkward-yet-sweet · Posted

      If you get a ticket, always say not guilty and go to court. Much of the time, the officer will not show up, and often the district attorney or the judge will not want to take the time. They ticket harvest because most people just agree to the fine and send them a check by mail.   If you are not a commercial driver, Most states also have a ticket forgiveness program. You take a little easy Driver's Ed Course, and it doesn't go on your record or increase your insurance prices. Explore your options!
