So its been brought to my attention that its time to update again. I don't really know what to talk about so maybe binders? Binders are a thing that should be talked about.

Okay guys, so a lot of people have actually asked me about how to get a binder in the past and stuff so here my advice.

Don't fucking get a full length one those things are shit. I know a lot of people who've gotten those ones and they suck a lot.

I got a tri-top and I'm really happy I did. The full length ones like ride up a lot and I've also been told that when you pull them back down they don't flatten as well. Everyone I've talked to who has a full length ends up wearing it like a tri-top.

If you don't know what a tri-top is it's the one that goes down to like the bottom of your rib cage.

So when you're ordering one MAKE SURE YOU DO YOUR FUCKING MEASUREMENTS. If you get one a size smaller than what you need its not gonna flatten your chest even more its just gonna be impossible to get on and you'll probably need to be cut out of it. You don't want to waist money on that. And also with getting one a size too small if you manage to get it on (if that even possible) its only going to cause you even more pain. No matter what when you bind your chest its gonna hurt even using a professional binder. It sucks but thats how it is. One thats too small is just gonna cause way more pain and believe me you don't fucking want that.

Where to get a binder. For mine I originally went to underworks but they ran out I think so I went to google and typed in 'how to get a chest binder' or something like that and I got a yahoo answers thing and there were links so I ended up getting mine from an 'adult toy shop' called the tool shed.

If you can't get a binder like you can't efford it or your parents won't get you one I think an ace bandage is the best thing to use. But there a certain kind that at least I've had good luck with. At first when I was using bandages I was using one with Velcro on both ends of it and it was kind of old and stretched out and I stole it from my step-dad but it sucked really bad. It barely flattened and it hurt really bad so I could only wear it like a half hour at a time.

My friend had a really good one that he took from his grandma actually and its from Mueller like thats the company that makes it. This one doesn't hurt very much and its bareable for a lot longer but you still have to remember that its a bandage and its still not healthy. It only has the Velcro on one end and its really stretchy. Definitely doesn't stretch out very fast.

I really want everyone to know though that no matter what a binder isn't healthy. They all restrict your breathing very much. Please don't wear them for longer than you absolutely NEED to. Don't wear them while doing physical activities. If you start feeling sick or light headed take it off immediately. Avoid wearing one on super hot days too. Please guys, be as safe as possible with these things. AND DON'T FUCKING SLEEP IN THEM.

Anyway, have a nice day. I love you guys.

P.S. Guys I need you to comment what you want me to write about. It can be anything. I doesn't really even have to do with being transgender or sexuality or anything lgbtq. It can even be how to fuck someone I don't care. Just comment what you want and I'll write about it.

P.P.S I used the guys bathroom at school for the first time the other day and it was awkward, scary and amazing all at the same time!
