Binding for AMABs?
Post Body

I feel stupid for asking this, but aren't binders also intended as a tool for men with gynecomastia? I've been pondering whether binding would help me with my uncomfortableness with the shape of my body. I'm AMAB and on the larger side, which doesn't help with my desire to not have a gendered appearance to people who glance at me. My chest is a tough question for me to contemplate, because I'm rather barrelchested and have a fair bit of breast tissue between the gynecomastia and being heavyset. I do occasionally like the idea of having something there, but I'd also be very happy if it just flattened out (and I'd love for my stomach to do that too). It's not something I can easily point to an end goal in any direction to say "I want that", but I can say with near certainty that I'm not happy with how it is now. Is there a chance that I could bind myself much flatter, even though I am more barrelchested? Is there a non-surgical way to work on the surrounding muscle and tissue to shape towards something more feminine? My torso is fairly hourglass shaped, and I don't see that ever changing. I'm not sure what I'd be happier with, but moving in some direction sounds very comforting.
