binder

[Guest rowolf]

ok ok yes i know this is usually an FtM topic but im not FtM, i just still want a binder. im agender and in fact want a completely flat chest. most FtM will tell you that men have a chest of forms so thats why its not helping me. yes i have been looking through all the binder posts. im a 36D and having problems bc i want a cheaper binder(ill have to ask my mom for it and she doesnt even now im agender yet....) that still works well. right now i wear 2 sports bras and look to be a B cup. does anyone have any ideas for a good binder?

I have heard that the underworks ones are amazing - I just ordered the 997 - not too expensive either.

I have also tried making my own but after a few failed attempts I can only suggest purchasing one.

Actually ebay can be a very good resource for cheap binders too. They are knockoffs made in China and some are better than others. All wear out in time but you can buy several for the cost of an Underworks which except for the FTM swim top worked least of any I have tried. And I started out at least a D. Very likely more but wasn't measuring or wearing regular bras by then

Please be sure to read the binding safely thread in the FTM section-it can really make a difference in your health.

Unfortunately the laws of physics are such that you can't actually make mass go away so the totally flat look may not be achievable without deforming the ribs beneath. You can spread it out or make funny squishy lumps but unfortunately there is just too much mass in a D I fear for completely flat. I was at one point wondering if the padded football or basketball type athletic compression shirts might increase body mass appearance enough to disguise the chest mass. As an FTM though I want a natural male chest appearance and so gave up the idea. Might help with what you are seeking.

Thanks for the tip, Johnny! I just ordered a couple of binders from underworks so I'm going to give those a try - I do pretty well with a tight sports bra but I am smaller in the chest so I suspect they will work well.
