One week till breast surgery!


Brianna R

Recommended Posts

In one week I’m having breast augmentation surgery. I’m both excited and scared to death. I’m a small an “A” cup now or a small “B” cup so I’m still able to “pass” as a man, but once I do this there’s no more hiding since the surgery will increase my size to a “C” cup.  Problem is I’m 61 years old 6’1” broad shoulders with a baritone voice. So I might just end up looking like a man with boobs. But this is something I feel I must do. I don’t want to die an old man.

I am planning on getting augmentation to a C cup.  I think that a large flannel shirt jack would be enough to hide them.

There are plenty of ways to hide breasts if you want to. Large shirts, or any top with a pattern, or dark colors etc. Wear bras with adjusters at the cup end rather than the band end so that they don't show from behind, or wear crop tops instead. But one thing i have learnt is that you will be far less noticeable wearing a bra regardless of what top you are wearing, compared to being noticed flopping and jiggling all over the place!

I hope your procedure went well and you're well on your way to feeling more you! Also, that you get to be free in expressing yourself in a way that affirms your feelings.

 

As a "man with boobs", it's amazing how little people notice/react even when not trying to hide things. I'm a 36B and if you look at my chest at the right angles I'm sure you can clock my breasts, but even with dressing masculine no one has said anything. I've had a buddy kind of stare at my chest when we were out for a couple beers, which was uncomfortable, but no one said anything and essentially no real harm was done. I can empathize with your feelings though, I've strongly wished I had a larger chest and there is anxiety there when thinking about how that would affect my day to day life.

How did your procedure go?

      I have not heard about it here in California, but then again we have events of various sorts going on very often, and not just in the June Pride Month.  We have Trans Fashion Week going on at a hotel complex over in West Los Angeles for the next three nights featuring shows by Trans fashion designers and modeled by Trans and NB people on the runways there.  I missed a chance for some free tickets and while I know and love many of the participants I do not want to pay for the tickets which will be in the $50 to $75 range, and which at those prices are nearly sold out.  (Not to mention $25 valet parking each night at the venue complex.).  There will be actual high end fashion buyers there though and it is an area where we are gaining some good footing.  I also admit that NONE of the fashions are going to be anything at all that would fit my basic personal style but look fine if not crazy on my much younger Trans siblings who will model them. (Ok everyone else keep on @Mirrabooka's topic.)

      Welcome to TransPulseForums @gizgizgizzie    I hope you find this place as helpful as I do. I’m also in a slow transition living in the androgynous world. I’m out to my grown children and my extended family with mixed support from them. Some have cut me out of their lives and others want me to be their flamboyant family member.    Best wishes, stay positive and motivated    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      To escape Gaza is already an achievement. And then to be trans?’: the women defying national and gender boundaries. https://www.theguardian.com/film/article/2024/may/16/yolande-zauberman-documentary-the-belle-from-gaza-cannes-film-festival

      Accidents happen.  So do heat-of-the-moment murders, without premeditation or trans-related hate.  It will take a trial to really figure it out.     One thing we can see from this is that it is people in our circles of acquaintances, friends, and partners who are the ones who usually hurt us.  Not someone random. We have to be careful who we trust.

      Friday May 17th is IDAHOBIT (International Day Against HOmophobia, BIphobia and Transphobia).   Do you acknowledge or celebrate it? Do you do anything special for it, like taking part in any organized events or activities?   I'm not an activist and I prefer to fly under the radar, but I am slowly becoming aware of important dates. I have been aware of the date of IDAHOBIT for a few weeks now, but other important 'rainbow' dates have not been etched into my brain yet.    I will wear my favorite pride t-shirt as a token acknowledgement of the day, but it probably won't be seen; cool weather here will mean that it will be hidden under a sweater.

      Happiness for me comes from being cognizant of the things that make me feel good.   Sunshine.   Pandering to my inner woman.   Knowing that some people in my life really 'know' me.   Vacations, and Eggs Benedict at an alfresco cafe.   My wife and I being telepathic.   Grandchildren.   Music.   Wine!

      True.  Every trans death is not a hate crime. There is so much hate expressed by some people, that we kinda get to expect it.

      happiness to me is being ME. At all times, and it has yet to happen.

      Hello & welcome, giz! Your post makes me remember how excited I was to join here too. I also had queer friends at the time I joined, but any of my trans friends lived a long distance away. So most local queer friends are gay & I felt uncomfortable coming out to them bc I couldn't assume they'd understand genderqueerness. So it was a thrill to join here and immediately have access to do many wonderful, genuine, kind & thoughtful friends-to-be.   Are you saying you're concerned that if you come out to your queer friends that somehow your parents will find out?     My love, I just want to affirm that that's not a weird dysphoria. It's just dysphoria. And we definitely get it. You're in good company here!     Look forward to seeing you around here & getting to know you. I shoot for androgynous appearance as well, leaning towards masculine.   Hope you're having a splendid day!

      Listening to a YouTube mix for me and this song came up and I immediately fell in love again and just want to play music with like minded musicians playing OUR music and feel the joy and fulfillment even if no one else gets it. I love to fall into the music....
