There are strapless bras available but you do have to look for them.  For a B cup, there are nipple covers also known as pasties or petals that adhere to you skin and keep the nipple from poking through the fabric. I have both and am a 46B.  The strapless bra's are a bit tighter in the band area and probably have underwires or boning.

Cara,

 

Showing a little bra strap isn't necessarily a bad thing.  If you notice, lots of women let their bra straps show, and I believe it is actually a fashion thing.  Obviously, it might not be appropriate for all occasions, but generally, a little bra strap shows off your edgier side.  Go with it!

 

Hugs,

 

Sally

I have also pondered this and I am about to experiment with the "Strapless" variant, I'm only 36c (Forms) so hopefully it should not be a problem....lots of cute dresses with spaghetti straps.

Good luck

I wouldn't worry too much if a strap shows...it's quite common for women to show their straps in a lot of outfits!

Just make sure it's a nice bra and not one that's seen better days!

When I first started, I would wear a bra just… because.  Now the girls are real enough, but not all that big.  So I don't really need a bra for support, and most of the time don't bother - especially in cooler weather when I'm layered up anyway.  I mean, those things aren't all that comfortable anyway.  I do use one in warmer weather with a light weight top, but that's mostly for modesty.

 

I have seen that most cis women in my age bracket don't show bra straps anyway.  If I do, it's not intentional and usually just a mater of a quick adjustment.

      The people of Iowa are wonderful, until they get elected to public office in a lot of cases.

      Wonderful to see, absolutely wonderful.

      Padres!   I was at opening day yesterday and had so much fun.   My favorite part though was when some ladies noticed that the zipper on my sling bag was partly open and let me know. They tutored me on how to properly position it like a lady so nobody can steal things out of it. They were only slightly surprised when I said "Thank you so much! I really need a mentor!!"

      I was born just outside the city - Mt. Vernon - as were my 3 siblings. My dad was a long-time Yankees fan, and with the likes of Mantle, Maris, Yogi, Kubek, Ford et al, hey - what wasn't there to love.

      I got tired of purging, because it is expensive the next time the tide rolls in.  And I lost some clothes that I loved.  I introduced the male-looking female clothes and I pass as a man.  Funny to say that.  I went through a time when I thought it was unfair that people had to deal with me when they thought they were dealing with a man and I was subliminally acting like a woman in my responses.  Not fair: they had no warning.  That sounds  like I am 100% F but I am not.  One therapist was convinced that once she looked past my appearance,  I was a girl.  It's not that simple or easy and people want to make it simple and easy, only to find this can be incredibly difficult to deal with.

      Welcome, Abby Gen! I'm 74 and non-binary, which has a widely different way of expressing itself among folks, and is often not understood very well by others.     You're not alone. The repeating cycle is certainly something that I experienced for many years in secret, until the pressure and anger became not just uncomfortable but dominated my personality. I am a gentle and kind person by nature, and I intensely disliked what denial did to me.  Women's clothing is now an important part of my expression, and second nature to wear.  Since I've also been on HRT patches (estradiol) for 4+ uears, men's clothing often doesn't fit me well anymore, and I find it has little appeal as well.     Yep.   Everyone's journey follows a somewhat unique path, and I wish you well as you ponder what to do going forward.   Your love and care for your spouse are admirable, supportive, and important.  As my spouse witnessed first-hand that most things in our relationship did not change with my non-binaryness, it greatly releaved stress.   Kind regards,   Astrid

      I don’t see any offense taken. My thing is don’t force beliefs on people. Talking about it is fine. 
    • Ivy
      I don't see how.   I know my own spiritual practices are pretty minority.  I don't have a problem with other folk's as long as they're not attacking me.

      Best Buy has not been on my "highly preferred" list for some time now because of in-store service in my area.  One security guard, one manager always on break for 8 hours, 5 sales "advisors" in regard to several million $$ in merchandise that I may want to buy a small amount of, but cannot find what I want, and then told to order it online and I can pick it up in 5 hours when I need it NOW.  At least they have not pegged me as Trans for a long time, but you get that they have one unhappy Trans person who has been there.  On the bright side I don't have to worry about financing their donations to anti-trans causes this way because I am not buying anything there.

      “we understand that it’s unrealistic for Best Buy to leave HRC in the near future because of their political clout.”   Just go after the defenseless.   Or perhaps the Lavender Scare.

      Yeah. Maybe they're getting tired of being laughed at? Or their Trans Panic is wearing off? "All Anti-LGBTQ+ Bills Defeated In Georgia. Every anti-LGBTQ+ bill was defeated in Georgia as the legislature adjourned Sine Die after midnight Thursday. Is the anti-trans panic losing steam, or is it pausing until after the election?" https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/all-anti-lgbtq-bills-defeated-in?publication_id=994764&post_id=143079115&isFreemail=true&r=rebf4&triedRedirect=true

      Actually a good start there for us in this group.  You fit into a pattern of which each of us is one piece, but the whole pattern is wide a beautiful.
