You can be pretty secretive about taking hrt, it takes a while to kick in
Far better than bad stuff happening, and unironically if you're legit afraid of being homeless, message me. I'll find you a place. Might not be luxurious but it'd be enough to stay in for a bit.
I just need more time. Also reading some reports makes me nervous, like estradoll already needing to wear a bralet. Even a full year... I don't know if that's enough. Maybe I'm overestimating the amount of money I need to make to move. Hearing about how literally no one can afford to take care of themselves makes me very nervous.
:meow-hug: that is so nice of you. Hopefully I don't put myself in that position.
You could reasonably hide it for years with compression. Could also just play it off as weight gain
They make compression garments that look like tank tops, if someone asks, just say you're self conscious
Obviously do what you feel safe doing, just pointing out cissies are clueless and you'll kick yourself for delaying if you knew for sure you wanted it
That's surprising to hear, I thought it would be less then that. Isn't there some risk of damage from binding (or is binding different from compression) often?
I am already kicking myself for not realizing earlier, so I'm sure I will. I love regretting things
There is but only for longer than 8 hours.
If you're wearing baggy clothes you won't need bras or bralettes, you only really need them if you're wearing something tight enough that they'd be visible, and even then you can get away without them for a few months provided you aren't wearing a blouse or other dress shirts (torture).
Thank you, I wasn't really sure when/how wearing that stuff worked and still feel too awkward to ask (and its unnecessary, because of not being able to start E for a while anyway)
Personally, I went swimming topless two months in (taking a normal dose of Spyro and E, although my levels are far from ideal) at my parents and I'm not exactly out to them. Wasn't really anything they could have noticed. My step mom has been trying to get me to come out though, I think and even happened to ask me if I was trying to come out about my gender while I was swimming because of another topic I mentioned
3 months in, I feel like I'd be worried about swimming topless, but it I wouldn't worry about a snug shirt and definitely don't need a bra. I've always been overweight, so some fat there is normal for me. I did take my Spyro and E in the kitchen with them around today.
I know a streamer who lived with her parents for years, wore bras, had sizable boobs, and the parents didn't notice for the longest time. I think her dad found her bras or something by chance? Cis people who aren't accepting are also probably oblivious.
