Bra for Larger Woman

Im a larger M2F, and its difficult to find bras my size, as i have that typical male side and back fat (though when i wear my sun dress bra-less, i can kinda mush it all forward, pushing the fat into my breast area, making a pretty decent breast size and it fills the breast area)

also on a related note, does Walmart or Target have policies about transgender customers wanting to try on cloths, it gets costly buying online recently with shipping costs going up.

actually i would much prefer it that way, i dislike people touching me with my cloths off with the exception of my partner and my doctor. It's also going to be hard to find the courage to go to a public place and have bra fittings tehe

This group in Oklahoma City may be able to direct you to some TG friendly stores that can help you. Its much easier also if another person can go with you who knows the place, and TG's do socialize by shopping. The group is listed on our main page here at Laura's, so saying you are a member here will not hurt.

Well that's unfortunate, I was just in OKC 2 days ago.

I've been converting my bigger and/or bustier friends to Lane Bryant. I'm a big girl and they not only fit me, but they're comfortable. I did have a bra fitting but that was after I had been full-time for awhile.

Next time I'm in town I'll have to let you know. I'm usually confined to stay at the truck stops on I-40 though.

I'm a big girl, I'm a tall girl, I drive a truck, I've been full time for almost a year now, and it's great. :)

Hey there Aimee, (my sister spells her name the same as you)

About your question about Walmart and Target, I think it depends on the store it's self. I have heard both positive and negative about both. I do know you can shop Walmart on line and get the same products that you find in the store and more. I can say that Victoria's Secret is TG/CD friendly (so I have heard quite a few times) and they are trained in sizing. I get they are a bit more expensive then Walmart but they are trained in sizing, excepting and you will walk away with a few cute well fitting bra's and that gitty feeling of buying something pretty for your self :) That is about the best help I can be in this situation, but from all the other posts I have read you have already gotten some awesome advice. Now if you can help me find size 4/5 jeans that are long enough for me hehehe jk, Good luck Aimee and happy hunting.

      I am an evangelical  I am also transgender.  This is an issue. I have read up on it.  I am not an expert, but I have done a lot of reading.   One thing I do not get about people who take that position is that evangelicals are all about salvation by faith alone by Christ alone by grace alone - unless you are transgender.  Then you cannot be saved, these say, unless you do the work of un-transgendering yourself.  Which is, practically, impossible.  I have read the "solutions" and I don't buy them, obviously, because they do not work.    In evangelicalism salvation is by faith alone, Christ alone, grace alone, without any merit of our own.  That means, to an evangelical, we come to Christ as we are,  in the words of a glorious hymn,   1 Just as I am, without one plea, but that thy blood was shed for me, and that thou bidd'st me come to thee, O Lamb of God, I come, I come.   2 Just as I am, and waiting not to rid my soul of one dark blot, to thee, whose blood can cleanse each spot, O Lamb of God, I come, I come.   3 Just as I am, though tossed about with many a conflict, many a doubt, fightings and fears within, without, O Lamb of God, I come, I come.   4 Just as I am, thou wilt receive, wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve; because thy promise I believe, O Lamb of God, I come, I come.   We do not clean ourselves up BEFORE we come to Christ.  We let Him clean us up AFTER we come to Him.    Those who insist that transgender people cannot be saved are actually preaching another Gospel, a Gospel of works, and have wandered away from the glorious Gospel into works.  That is strong but true.   Struggling with legalism and grace, I have found more of God's mercy and grace available to me because I struggle with being transgender and seeking His resolution of it.  Which, not having the struggle, I would not have needed to seek Him earnestly on this.

      Eventually, (especially if you start T,) things will even out. The excitement you feel is from everything being so new. Finally knowing yourself and having others recognise you can be thrilling. However, because it is your natural state of being, eventually that wears off. There's nothing exciting about it anymore because it's "just you." (Which is a perfect thing to be!) This, however, can lead to disappointment. Trust me when I say however, that that disappointment and jarring reaction to wrong pronouns will go away, and you'll once again feel comfortable in yourself.

      I love long hair. I'm wanting my hair to touch the floor. I guess we shall see how long it can get.

      I wear a wig most of the time.  But I can get by with my natural (shoulder length) hair if I wear a hat or something to cover the mostly empty top. Unfortunately that train has left the station, sigh.

      Normal is a word in the dictionary and a setting on washing machine.

      I mean, we're trying !  Just have to be a Southern Girl for now.

      Oddly enough, just this weekend I read some of my poetry at a local event.  In this case it was a Pride group so I didn't have a particular advantage.  But I have read in more inclusive (of cis people) situations, and been fairly well received.  Let's face it, cis people do deserve an equal chance.   I suppose this might be a problem in the future.
    • Ivy
      Of course we do.  The few friends I do have are almost exclusively cis or trans women. I think I could have a relationship with a man, but he would be kinda "other" to me.  Could be interesting though. I never have understood guys - even when I was trying to be one.
