Hi everyone! I wanted to cross post this from r/asktransgender then saw this sub doesn’t do cross posts so here is my og post edited slightly:
I want to start getting active and it’s left me stuck.
I’m about 3 and a bit months on T and I’ve had HEAPS of hair growth. I have chest hair now so I’m trying to avoid taping because I don’t want to shave… ouch. I’m excited about my hair, even if it’s random and would look better if I shave- it’s a part of the experience lol.
I’m looking for something that I can wear when I want to go to gym. I can’t buy a sports bra because the dysphoria would make me go crazy. I also don’t want to spend a bunch of money on a binder that’s a larger size. I’m kind of stuck and not sure how to go about it? I’ve been binding for years now so I know how important it is to avoid physical activity in them but my dysphoria feels debilitating.
So my question: does anyone know of any good binder brands/businesses that make fitness binders? Or should I just shave and deal with no chest hair?
I thought this would be the best place to ask. I’m based in AU so if anyone knows AU brands that would be even better!!
Cheers 💪🏻
Oooo I’ll have a look online, I’ve heard bad things about binders with clips though- is that actually true or just misconception?
Yeah that is a good point, binders are just so expensive and I just brought two full length ones and tape… just to start T and not want to use tape 😭 just def hurts the bank a lot to buy another one. But I’ll have a look and chat to mates to see if anyone has old ones they are willing to sell
Interesting! I’ll have a look- I love buying from sock drawer Heros so this would be great!
Oh wow, I’ve never heard of people doing that? How long do you usually keep your tape on if you don’t mind me asking? I didn’t even think that was an option
