Binder Purchasing

Im thinking about purchasing a binder from underworks soon. Right now I bind with a waist trimmer which is starting to get real uncomftorable. Im like a 36 DD. Any suggestions on what type and size binder I should get?

Maybe try the Ultimate Chest Binder. That's the one I use, and I'm only a little bit bigger than you. I got the large size, and that seems to hold my chest in but without being too tight. Just be careful not to get one that's too small. Its not worth damaging you ribs for a flat chest. Remember that generally not many bioguys have completely flat chests either! x

Sergei's right. Make sure that you don't get one too small!!! I have a small chest to begin with, so I use a waist trimmer, but I go through them like crazy...one every month to 3 months.

Sergei, could you perhaps provide a link to which one might be best for him? I searched and got this from underworks: http://www.underworks.com/996.html

Is that the right one?

The problem I always had was getting something that was tight enough to bind but also fit around my Buddha belly. Constant rib pain is not cool.

Yes, that is the right link. Thanks for finding that. :)

I find that it actually helps hold in my fat stomach as well Stranded so it doesn't jab into my ribs. The only thing is its a little bit warm in hot weather.

Also with the ultimate binder do you wear a sports bra under it or do you just throw it on. Can you wear it without a sports bra? Also does it have to hug your hips or can you kinda tuck it in your boxers or something

With or without a sports bra will be a personal choice but the sports bra does help stuff not slide to a different position in the binder. With me, if I'm goin for super flat- and I'm about 10 inches bigger than you in sizes- then I need to be able to move em as far to the sides and not in front as possible, hence the need for things to stay put. And yeah, for me its usually pulled all the way down and inside the boxers so that its not ridin or rollin at the edge -I hate that.

I still haven't actually been able to find any binders that fit my proportions. :/ I'm REALLY heavy and I have a bulky build, and I don't know my exact breast size...

If I bound it would probably look worse as it is.

I have a binder from Underworks and a binder from T-Kingdom.

I use both. The one from T-Kingdom do bind the boobage, and the one from Underworks to get all the leftover stuff.

I bind pretty well, but the one from T-Kingdom cuts into my skin alot. I do the same thing Evan does, pushing them to the side and down.

In my experiece, Underworks doesn't go too well.

Maybe cuz I've gotten too small of sizes. Whatever.

If you can, spend the extra monety at T-Kingdom. I'd say it's worth it.

Otherwise, I don't know.

mine from T Kingdom its ok, if i wear a t-shirt then a hoody looks alrite. i got a large but i may get the next size up.

its will be hard to find the perfect one for me, i a 26E which is a joke, means im proper skinny like a model and dawn french type boobs!

its a hassle

      hi vidanjali !! i know exactly what you mean, i do have a few trans and otherwise queer friends nearby me but currently i present as 'cis' for obvious reasons so it's not all that easy for me to reach out and find that kind of community (though i do love my irls!!)   but yeah, i get this weird paranoia that if i come out to too many people it'll end up tracing back to my folks (not everyone knows my family is homophobic and being outed is a big fear of mine)   but im sooo happy to know that that feeling was just dysphoria !! i thought i was going crazy for a minute !!.   thanks so much for welcoming me, and you have a great day too !!

      hi susan!! thats very much how i feel !! i have no issue explaining my gender or educating other people on transness but it feels like im talking to a brick wall of misinformation even if they are well-meaning and accepting people ! but thank you anyways for welcoming me here !!
    • gizgizgizzie

      This is a fairly long video by Philosophy Tube,  (Abigail Thorne)  Discussing some of Judith Buttler's work and related stuff.   I wasn't sure where to post it, so if there is a better place, move it.

      I have a fantastic therapist. She is so caring she has helped me open up so much. Unfortunately, She is ending her internship. Do to a hiring freeze at the VA she isn't going just go right into a position there.  My Endo is out of the Denver VA hospital. I haven't talked with her in probably 2 yrs. I am  looking to transfer providers and get back to seeing a GYN at the Cheyenne VA.

      Shopping at the mall today and helping out at Torrid I excused myself to the restroom. The manager told me the restroom at JC Penny was much closer (I normally use the family restroom in the food court).   Upon arrival I discovered that JC Penny doesn't have a family restroom, it's either or.   The men's room was occupied with customers, and me going in with large breasts, long hair, and makeup was going to cause a stir, so I opted for the woman's room instead. I was the only one in the woman's room.    Texas state law does state that your must use the restroom that matches your chromosomes, and it's a misdemeanor to not do so, but it seemed to be the best choice (I really needed to go!)

      I had some guy grab my butt on the ship.  I don't know how "real" it was, but I did not enjoy that at all.  Also did not enjoy the hazing I saw other people going through.  One person can only do so much to stop that when there are 10 people doing it.

      I pulled this out of a stack of old military mementos yesterday.  I guess I didn't realize how cool this one was because I did so much of this kind of thing back then.

      This internet video thing is pretty amazing.  I'd call it Zoom, but there are other platforms out there.  I prefer Zoom over Teams because Zoom puts me and everyone else in the same picture.  I like seeing the whole group in one shot.  Teams of course is about having so many people that you can't get them in the shot, or is it?   Just saying that I have never met any of my counselors in person.  Doctors, of course I have and I am lucky there.  They are 3.5 miles from my house as is the main transgender surgery place in town.  I've been doing virtual visits with the medical doctors lately though.  It feels like once I became steady state, they don't need to interact with me physically that much.  I have enjoyed going into their office in my nice clothing.
