How many show them off?

[Angélique LaCava]

If it's not bad to show off your body then why do the mods on this forum frown upon it? Me personally if it was for educational purposes I wouldn't mind getting naked for example if it was to show people what hrt can do. So if y'all want to flaunt so bad talk to the mods and ask them to make an 18 and older section so children can't see it.

I didn't think we were having a conversation reduced to trans women at all, but about all women. I found much of this thread to be more in line (or rather, out of line) with feminist themes and debates that have been ongoing for decades.

This is a much broader discussion, and the things that have been alluded to or explicitly said are not new or solely focused on trans people. The judgements going on here do have an extensive political background which can be engaged with.

Thank you for recognizing the significance of this discussion being part of important feminist themes.  I have longed for more of this honestly and feel grateful no mods have yet felt the need to "lock her up"

I hope we can continue to share here and consider that many transgender people may arrive at this place after inhabiting completely different gender roles with the original equipment.  I was once a confused teenager with a useless but urgent testosterone fueled libido that made no sense to me at the time.  I so wanted to both have and observe breasts and spent more than a few moments appreciating the many splendored wonders all around.

Who we are today might allow us a seasoned perspective on what it means and how it feels to be a person with breasts that are the source of so much attention.  Several of the very public events I enjoy include the Pride and Dyke Parades and festivals such as the Oregon Country Fair.  Thousands of women, cis and trans, choose to be topless for any number of reasons.  For some it may be a political statement or simple freedom calling. 

What calls you to dress your way?

Tessa - I love the Oregon Country Fair Can't wait to go again this year.

It is an interesting discussion. As to why nudity is ok in some places as we have mentioned and not ok in other places and considered "adult" is a very uneven line. Likely because we humans have a tendency to go overboard at the drop of a hat (or top). We also have this habit of sexualization of pretty much anything.


My style is my style because i like it. I try to be current but within that band, i tend toward a certain look that many women would never go for. Body shaming and body image are very important feminist and progressive subjects, as such a place like this needs to tread carefully. I can't really tell anyone what is appropriate for them to wear, if they ask suggestions ok maybe then and even then sometimes i have to goggle for a broader opinion.

Someone on another forum was talking about wearing hose with open toed shoes and i felt the cringe thing coming on until i googled and found a few narrow instances where it works, and even so who i am to tell them they can't wear what they want?

I've never been to a nude beach but I wonder if it would be more or less comfortable as it's not like everyone on it is nude and you probably find yourself looking at anything but other people so as not to be seen as a perv.

I don't have a problem with anyone wanting to be nude or show a lot off but I sure hope they're not surprised if they find it makes people act a bit weird around them or turns people on. I mean, it's going to, some of the time.

Hi Kylo,

  I had to chuckle reading your post.  I live in Oregon and here we have several clothes optional areas. I personally have not been to a nude beach but as I understand it most of those places are at least semi-private and well labeled as clothing optional.
  I have been to a clothing optional hot spring one day on an outing with my then teenage nephews. Being there didn't bother me whatsoever just as our being there had no discernible effect on those without clothes. They simple don't care about those around them and how they are perceived by others so long as they are allowed to do what they do in peace.
  As expected it did have a humorous effect on my young nephews. I think it made their day.

  Live and let live is a good policy

  Hugs,
  Jeanette

One thing about public nudity from my experience, is that it loses its titilation factor in about 10 minutes. Whoosh gone...no matter who is standing in front of you.

Fashion is sort of like that too. Nobody things twice about baring an ankle now and 100 yrs ago it was quite a naughty statement. However since the mystery factor still exists within fashion, it takes a while to get used to the same sort of thing.

Well to answer what the thread intending to ask, I don't have much to show off lol Im a small B, mostly because of width and not because of how far they protrude  However I am very proud of my little bewbs lol

I will go braless sometimes to the mall, club, grocery store or wherever. Of course I make sure you can't see my nipples through my shirt. I went to a club the other night with a nice dress and no bra and it looked really cute(With my boyfriend). He loves that I like to show off my body. I'm a hard critic on myself and I know when I look like what others would consider "slutty" and I really couldn't care less. I go out sometimes and say yup this is going to garner a lot of attention, but Oh well. I like how I look. I have a nice body. I'm not trying to please or displease anyone and if anyone wants to judge, then go right ahead. Unless I'm going to a club, then I have to dress better than all the other women lol Someone will always judge you I look for reasons to not wear clothes or wear as little as possible. I feel too confined in clothing. Everyone has their own opinion. Doesn't mean you have to listen to it lol I'm 29 by the way I wear what I want when I want. I spent my whole life trying to fulfill a role to please others. That part of my life is over

I have semi-large breasts, I am married and have been for a long time, so, like Angélique says. I have too much respect for my wife to go out showing them off and indicating that they are for anyone but her.  That is my feeling on the breast show.  If I were single, then maybe it would be different.  To each their own, though.

Last night I attended the TEA Show (Transgender Erotica Awards Show - basically the trans porn awards) in LA. I wore this one shoulder dress and a couple of times my left boob popped out accidentally. It was no big deal and I don't think anyone really noticed.

Double sided "fashion" or medical tape. Handy for all sorts of wardrobe or "hair" malfunctions!

Yes. I keep some in my bag.

Thanks for the info!  I actually thought of that after the fact.

This is the first time I've had this issue "pop" up (out). I think the girls are definitely filling in more.  I actually usually wear a bra or other supportive clothing so this was something of a first for me. I guess I need to be a little more prepared. I actually had a wrap on most of the evening because of the cold and that pretty much covered up the malfunctions.

The tape won't help on my hair because 99.9% of the time I'm all natural hair. I only wear wigs on very few infrequent occasions when I play dress up in costume.

I love to show off my bra under a sheer top. Not cleavage as such, but with my band and straps being clearly visible as I move.

I wear really feminine lacy bras, and I prefer the ones with half-adjustable straps, so that the buckles and clasps sit on my shoulders and are really obvious under my top.

I try to wear a snowy white bra under any top, it looks so cool and fresh. But they quickly go grey in the wash!

Wow no offense to anyone, but some of y'all need morals.
