Ok y’all, I need you to drop links for free binder services. It’s November which means that parents won’t think it’s odd for their children to request that they not inspect packages. They’ll simply assume it’s a present for whatever holiday they observe. So please do your part by dropping links in the reblogs and trying to get this seen by those who need it

edit: I’m not going to guilt you into reblogging, because that might not be safe for you for whatever reason, but if it is possible, it would be greatly appreciated if you could reblog instead of/as well as liking. Reblogging ensures that more people see this, and the more people who see it the greater possibility for good.

edit 2: ok @the-maddened-hatter made a master list of what’s been added so far

I’ve just suddenly been made aware of my boobs and how much I hate them get these things off me

miguel x chubby!reader … i just want miguel to grab onto reader’s fleshy hips and bury his face in their tits while he fucks them :( is that too much to ask,,,,

MDNI (gn!reader; softness, romantic sex, Miguel being obsessed w chubby!reader’s body)

I just know he loves it when you sit in his lap while he fucks you.

miguel isn’t always a man of many words, but knows how to convey everything he’s feeling with a look. those eyes... those eyes. sometimes, he loses control. eyes going red, fangs poking out of his mouth as he digs his fingers into your hips, forcing you further down onto his cock. all you can do is sit with your mouth open, desperate and helpless as you throb against him.

he kisses up your arms, lingering at the palm of your hand, holding his lips there for a moment to remind you how much you meant to him. to steady his heartbeat, and yours.

“cariño,” he breathes. a simple word, but it tells you so much.

he wants you to go boneless against him, to completely rest your body weight on top of his. rely on him. it makes him feel needed. after all, he needs you.

and when you get overwhelmed, bury your head in his chest. he gets awful embarrassed but his cock loves it. always perks to attention at the prospect of your mouth around his nipples.

he’s obsessed with positions where you’re facing him. wants to see you and your body at all times—don’t hide anything. not from him. he wants every piece of you, every part of you.

hi! so I have my top surgery date in a little over a month and I've noticed that my dysphoria around my chest has like,, multiplied tenfold since I got the date confirmed. its getting to be a Problem. is this normal? shouldn't dysphoria be reducing now that there's like a guaranteed solution incoming? if this is normal that's fine but I've not heard anyone mention it to me before

you would think it would be reduced, but i also had an increase instead. i think it is normal, or at least not an uncommon experience.

for me it was like…before i had the date, i just had to indefinitely live with my chest being there. and i got pretty good at ignoring it and just living my life with it, because the alternative was misery with no end in sight and i did that for a while and it was not sustainable (as in, it was quite literally almost the end of me). so i found ways to cope and just live my life with the dysphoria essentially as white noise, hanging around in the background but not too intrusive most of the time.

but then, once i got my date, there was an end in sight! it wasn’t just a life of ceaseless misery that waited for me if i didn’t learn to live with it. and on top of that, there was the impatience of “oh my god why can’t it just happen now why do i have to wait longer i’ve been waiting long enough these are the longest months of my life”. and those two things mixed together in my brain to make a lot of the dysphoria i’d learned to cope with come back with a vengeance. time always seems to go by slower when you’re looking forward to something in the future, and knowing i had a date for getting rid of the source of that dysphoria gave my brain permission to feel it in the meantime.

i’ve never really seen anyone talk about this either but i’d guess it’s probably a pretty common thing. i definitely feel like waiting for my date to arrive once i had it was harder than waiting to get it in the first place. anticipation sure is a bitch.

the good news is this *probably* won’t actually push back my timeline for top surgery, but I still let myself have a little tantrum about it because we respect all feelings in this house

An Intro to Binders

Binders are a great! Here's a quick intro into what they are, the many styles and options and some links on where to get one!✨

There are no rules on who can wear a binder, it's shapewear, if it helps you achieve your desired shape, then go for it! No one owes you an explanation as to why they choose to wear a binder; it's their body, their clothes, their choice.

If you are looking into getting a binder for yourself, it's important you do plenty of research into what style, size and materials are right for you. Check out resources from Point of Pride, Spectrum Outfitters, Amor Binders and Mermaids for safety and measurement guides. Or if you want video resources on binders, check out YouTube channels for PinkNews, Jammidodger, Ashton Daniel and As/Is.

It's important to note as well, that binders wont work for everyone, but there are other options for a flatter chest, like wearing baggier clothes and layering, working out your upper torso and arms, using trans tape or top surgery.

A dedicated binder safety guide post will be coming soon so stay tuned!...

Also, if you have any other recommendations for brands or resources, please share in the comments 😁

The doodle is marked with a red X. On the second one, he is wearing the same shirt but tucked into his bra, exposing his belly. He is smiling, and the doodle is marked with a green check mark. /End ID]

Defeat dysphoria by serving cunt.

love how transgender bsd characters are despite not being about that At All

Don't bind for longer than 6-8 hours guys. I've been consistently binding for longer than that every day for weeks, maybe even months now, due to a mix of severe dysphoria and forgetting the time that has passed.

For about a week now, I've been dealing with sharp pain right under my chest area. Like it's either the ribs or idk my organs or so hurting like a bitch after I take my binder off even if I bind for 8 hours only or less.

I can't confirm that it's from binding, but it seems most likely.

So yea. Don't do this to yourself. Remember that no matter how awful your dysphoria is, the pain you'll have from binding too much is not worth it. Because the pain can stay around for longer than you have your boobs if you fuck up badly enough.

Take care of yourselves. <3

[our-trans-youth-experience]

teenage trans guy here with a burning question (btw crazy ive never seen a blog like this before. you are doing wonders)

what should i resort to for binding if :

a) i have rib damage and breathing problems due to my inexperience binding and lack of research

b) have tried transtape with terrible results

c) physically cant bind with sports bras due to previously mentioned lung issues

i cant afford top surgery. im not even out to my family as a trans man, and i know i dont have to bind to be able to pass but its getting increasingly harder to be in public and pass as a man. thanks for your help if you end up responding to this 🏳️‍⚧️

Hey there dude, welcome and thanks for your support. I try and get through all of my asks, but I am doing full-time school at the same time too, so sorry for any delay in responding. Since you seem to have not seen many of these style of blogs, I'd recommend @our-transgender-experiences @our-transmasculine-experience @our-trans-punk-experience and @our-queer-experience .

This is a difficult ask and first let me take a moment to warn people against unsafe binding because of this.

Now for my advice to you - don't double down on the bad binding practices - no duct tape I REPEAT NO DUCT TAPE - I suggest trying to create an overall boxier, angular less curvy silhouette - this can be done by working out, particularly chest and other upper body exercises - or by layering clothes that have structured fronts (tshirts with large laminated design panels, utility vests, jackets with big chest pockets) Also, I wouldn't completely write trans tape off, it's a skill you can get better at with a little practice :)

Are there any other cis-identifying women out there who want to get top surgery? What is your experience?

Here's mine ...

Ah yes, June, Pride month, the time every year for me to ponder if the fact that I desperately want to cut my boobs off makes me trans....

But like!! I feel like a woman!! I just feel like a woman that doesn't have boobs!

Boobs were never part of my mental map of myself, they're like this unwanted limb that doesn't belong to me??

Obviously that's some kind of dysphoria but....I feel like a woman, or at least a sort of queer, gender-nonconforming woman. I am asexual (I think), so I want to say it could be related to that, but it feels reductive and incomplete as an explanation on its own.

In fact I am so certain I am a woman because I actually identified as trans nonbinary for a year and wore more masculine clothes and went by they/them because I thought that my chest dysphoria meant that must be the case, but I "detransitioned" because it didn't feel right (I am Not A TERF and very pro-enbies everywhere, it just was not me). Tbh I am significantly more secure in my identity now than I ever was before that time.

Also it fuckin sucks because binding is *literally* the worst possible thing for me, health wise. Makes my gerd, asthma, dizziness, and anxiety worse. I still wear light compression tops or tight sports bras a lot of days but can't tolerate it always. It's miserable.

And don't even get me started on how the hell I would pay for top surgery. Fat chance my insurance would cover it when I say I'm not trans and mine aren't even that huge to begin with so the typical reasons women get breast reductions (back pain etc) don't apply.

Wondering if anyone out there feels similarly.
