Speaking of boob sweat I think someone should make a bra out of a mesh of some kind so it can breathe.

I dunno, mesh on the girls seems like it would be uncomfortable. Of course at my size, they can just be free unless I expect I'll be running.

 

As long as I'm not wearing, say, a sheer, white racerback shirt to the gym. Everybody got a bit of a show that day.

 

Hugs!

Yeah, maybe.

I think it depends on the mesh.

I would think that you also want something to wick/absorb moisture / boob sweat. I mostly wear a bra now to add a little padding and cover the always on headlights so mesh wouldn't help there. ;)

Oh yeah, that's a good point too. My sister-in-law says a chainmail bikini can be pretty comfy when you line it in something like rabbit-fut. Personally, I just used an adhesive strapless yesterday and that worked fine. Lucky choice too as I stopped by for a deep tissue massage on my way home from buying ice cream. I could be modest and half-naked at the same time.

I made 6-7 over the years. The big issue was the weight and the strain it puts on the back of the neck but steel is heavy and gets cold.  I have yet to make one for myself.

I always used aluminum, so the weight is less of an issue. You could also use a smaller gauge like... let's see if I can find it... drat. Anyway, it was this beautiful chainmail wedding gown that used a bunch of different metals. I mean it's not like we need it to stop a knife.

I was a purist about the metals and processes I used so aluminum and premade rings were off the list for a long. I still can't justify the cost of buying them. I do have my 3d printer which solves a lot of the problems but I'm overly concerned about the rings breaking. Thank you Jackie for bringing this up. I'm gonna rework my design.

I’m unfortunately not wearing my leathers today as I’ve decided to sell my 66 R 50 BMW.  I’m just a bit too old and weak at this point to handle her.  Note the scarf.  I use it to keep my wig on as I take my helmet off.  It also looked great streaming behind me.  I’m keeping the 64 Vespa to putter around and go to the farm market.  
 

Hugs,

What a great old bike! I loved the opposed engines.  The K series did nothing for me lol

It is a classic for sure and always turns heads.  Quiet and a comfortable stable ride.  I remember riding up the east coast to Martha’s Vineyard on 3 gallons of gas non stop and being comfy.  Not the fastest cafe racer but a real road bike. 
 

Hugs,

@Charlize you look so adorable in your recent pictures...you all do, but that bike is a nice surprise.  As a kid my dad would take me for long rides on his '68 R50.  I loved how quiet it was, and I'm sure that's why I recently had a strong urge to find my favorite bike...1982 Silverwing.

I see it as the lady-goldwing.  Only 500cc so I can pick it up I have to.

I chicked it out a little.  I love coming out on my bike.  I feel feminine, sexy, and free when riding.

I gave up my shadow a few years ago.  Still have the leathers around somewhere tho.

I think I would feel weird wearing them now.  Maybe the jacket would still work?  It is nice and warm.

Looking good Charlize!  I completely understand your reason to sell.  It was the same for me with my 1983 Suzuki GS1100E.

I dug out a pix of the old girl.

This was at Lake Lure on the way up toward Asheville.  It was awhile back though.

Honda Shadow 700, not real big, about like a sportster, but water cooled, with a driveshaft.  I do miss her sometimes.

two back surgeries later I had to give her up: Suzuki 750 Volusia. Before that I had a honda 550 circa 1980s and a 72 Susuki GT750. That was too much for my 16 year old self and lasted one ride before I sold it. I originally picked it up in parts to learn how to rebuild them.

My brother in law gave a ‘72 Honda CB750. He got it for parts. It took me 2 years to make it presentable and rideable. Two months later I totaled it.

Mine had been totaled once and put back together.  We also survived hitting a deer one time.   She was a tough old girl.   Fortunately, I never lost any limbs, just a lot of skin.

Looked around for some pics of the old 1952 K model Harley I had many years ago but no luck finding any.

45 cu in motor foot clutch and side shift.

8 inch over stock springer front end and one big headlight. Short Zbar handle bars.

The frame had been chopped as well but not sure exactly how much

Bobbed off  3 inches on each fender .

Being a hard tail it wasn't the smoothest ride for long trips.

It ended up being stolen while I was at a club partying with some other friends.

A friend found a few parts off it a few years later but I was over the urge to ride on two wheels by that time.

My ride now.  It is a 64 Vespa rebuilt in Vietnam and bored out to 175cc.  Certainly peppy and plenty of fun on small local roads.  And you can wear a skirt?.

 

Hugs,

Dunno, in keeping with the spirit of the thread, I think you should have to post a picture of your bike with you riding on it.

      Good evening to you as well @Mmindy   That is awesome that you have support from her side. My dad has communicated with me once and that was because he was forced to. His new wife wanted to spend time with my kids. He hated me so much he was in the process of taking my rights away as a parent to my two boys. He was talking to a lawyer and I called him out on it. I don't love him at all. I'll respect him because I wouldn't be here without him but I wished I had another father. My uncles don't talk to me and unfriended me on Facebook. Almost all cousins except for two are still Facebook friends but they don't give me any support. My mom said she won't support me with that but she has said that she loves me. I have nieces and nephews that are still Facebook friends but they have yet to talk to me. I have one sister that supports me out of three. The other's disrespect me by deadnaming me. They have never called me their sister. I think for them they think it's still a phase. They don't ask questions about me being trans. I have to bring it up and on the look of their faces they don't look comfortable about it.

      Good evening @Ashley0616,   I just got offline with HP tech support trying to get my printer tool box icon locked to my tool bar. This is one of the most important features of my printer that I like because it keeps track of ink, paper, and scanned documents. I'm diffidently not a computer geek.   I'll catch up with the other bookmarks next week. We leave to go home for the Easter Holiday with our families. Saturday with her side, and Sunday with my side. What's odd about that is I'm out to more of her side and they're reluctantly supportive. My side on the other hand are less supportive, and my sister just under me in age will not acknowledge my being there. She will be constantly moving to keep from dealing with me. I'm dead to her.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I used to follow baseball and the team I would cheer for is Boston Red Sox. My favorite player was Papi. He was an awesome guy and even held a child during the National Anthem. I haven't watched baseball for a long time. It just died off to me. 
    • Ashley0616
      That stinks that nothing transferred, and no bookmarks were saved!

      I'm doing patches for now but I think soon I'll go to shots because it's hard to alternate when you are doing two xx patches at once. Unless she gives me Estradiol and progesterone

      My view is we are "dependent" on government, because as a society, we are too lazy to stay actively involved. So, we let politicians do our bidding for us.  I think we'd be in a better place government wise if we policed the actions of our politicians.  We elected them; they work for us.  Sadly, we are allowing them to run amok.  We are where we are because we have chosen to let politicians make all decisions without us.  Remember "by the people, for the people?" That was the intent of our democracy.  Today, however, it is "by the politicians, for the politicians," the people be damned.

      "Play Ball! Batter Up!" is the closing line of the National Anthem as far as I'm concerned. It's the call of the Home Plate Umpire and signals the start of the game. I grew up in the TV and Radio broadcast of the St. Louis Cardinals. Harry Caray, Jack Buck, Tim McCarver, and Mike Shannon, were the voices on my transistor radio. KMOX 1120 AM pushing 50,000 watts of Class A clear-channel non-directional signal. It could be picked up all across MO, IL, IN to the East. KS, OK, CO to the West. IA, MN to the North, and KY, TN, AR to the South. There has always been a rivalry against the Chicago Cubs, in the National League. As for the American League, I have to pull for the Kansas City Royals. I've also been a Little League Umpire, and fan of everything the Little League stands for. Going to Williamsport, PA and seeing the Little League World Series is in my top 10 things to do on my bucket list.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Good evening everyone,   I don't think my mother ever cooked a meal that I didn't like. We also had a kitchen where mom fixed the food, dad filled your plate, and you eat it. It wasn't until our baby brother was born that we could have Pop-Tarts for snacks. Before that all snacks had to meet mom's approval, and in her opinion wouldn't prevent you from eating supper.   Well my day started off on a good note, but has become frustrating because my IT person didn't transfer my saved videos I use for teaching. Then I found out that they didn't save any of my book marks for websites I use frequently.   Best wishes, stay motivated,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      The number is relative to method of deliver, the time of the dose, and when the blood is drawn. However, I do want to keep away from DVT and other potential issues. I assume I may be getting backed down from my current dose, but my doc told me to stick with the higher dose, so? I also wonder if this has anything to do the my breast growth and mental changes that have been happening over the past few years, like I have some estrogen sensitivity so a little goes a long way or something? I don't have enough data to postulate, but who knows!   With weekly, subcutaneous, shots you expect to see big swings of serum level estradiol from shot to peak to trough. My doctor is interested in mid-week testing (for E and T levels only), which would be post-peak blood serum levels but they will be higher than trough. Most, if not all, resources I've seen online is to measure at trough (which I might do just to do it next time) along with a SHBG, LH, and other metrics.   This is from transfemscience.org for Estradiol valerate in oil, which is very spiky compared to some other estradiol combinations. It's also for intramuscular, which will have a slower uptake and is usually dosed in higher volume due to the slower absorption rate from muscles. They don't have subcutaneous numbers, which I would expect to see similar spikes but higher levels at similar doses due to the relatively higher absorption rate direct from fat.   Are you doing pills, shots, or patches? And when you do get your levels checked are you getting that done when your levels are lowest or some other time?

      Both of my parents were from the “North Shore” of Boston.  My mother Lynn and my father Swampscot.  They had an early 1900s Scots-Irish New England diet.  My sister and I were born in the 40s in Ohio well away from New England seafood and in an area where food was more German and Polish.  My first experience with liver and onions was during basic training.  They ate salt cod but never forced us to eat it same with oysters.  My dad ate oysters but my mother wouldn’t.  Anyone who ever ate an oyster can figure that one out.  I grew up eating lamb.  My wife won’t touch it. I love brazed ox tail, again no way. And the list goes on.

      My mother was German, so yes, I think it was a cultural thing.  If I'd known you when we were cleaning out my mother's place, I could have sent you her "threat jar".

    • Ashley0616
      Wow that is a high number for Estradiol good grief! Testosterone levels are better than mine. I don't remember my Estradiol level but testosterone was 80. To me that is really high but it was in the two hundreds the check in before last one.

      I don't understand why this would make a difference being a "dad" I mean, as far as how they would grow.
