Somewhere in Illinois has sent me a black binder! It looks like it will fit, I just got it in the mail. I won't identify the benefactor because on the Internet, no good deed goes unpunished. My Internet connection came back but it comes and goes, I've seen more Internet problems in the last year than over the preceding 10. These systems are breaking down. Pretty soon Susan's will have to go back to being a Mimeographed newsletter and a mailing list.
Since I make about 1/3 minimum wage, no benefits, no nothing I've not been able to buy a binder, it's been right at the outer edge of my income to afford testosterone and I use the cheap, injection method. So getting a real, actual, binder is a treat. Thanks Unknown And Shall Not Be Revealed Benefactor!

OK I tried it on last night, and I think it's just about right. Any tighter would be BAD. There's a little slack at the neckline in front, but I can tailor that to sit flat. It REALLY flatten me out! Which is a little odd, because if you look at most guys esp. muscular ones, they're carrying around a fair amount of pec muscle. I see even fairly slightly-built guys otherwise, and they must be carrying 20 lbs of muscle on their chests. This just smashes everything flat. A lot of the time since I'm kinda muscular, my moobs pass as pecs anyway. I honestly think face and voice becoming more masculine over the next couple of years will be a big help in passing. But, this binder is cool, and if I want to be really flat it's the way to go! Thanks!
PS - I did not wear it for long, gotta wash it because it's full of perfume lol. And it was making me itchy hopefully that was just the perfume.
