Susan's Place Transgender Resources

As I progress through my transition and now HRT, I feel kind of self conscious about my body. I feel a lot of us do, society help women in general and transgender people in particular to feel extremely conscious about their bodies, more than any one should. I stumbled upon this pic/vid of a hundred breasts and after that I feel very relieved, really no one has a perfect pair, and about all of those girls could be self-conscious about their breasts... or none of them, depends on how you see it.

I love mine because they are unique to me!  :)

When guys check them out I feel on top of the world!  ;D

Why is it I felt feminist eyes roll back just now?  :laugh:

It's so sad to see all these woman with their breast issues.  The loss of or misshapen breasts can be a complete nightmare.  Mine are only an A cup at the moment and are never perfectly the same size, but I still love them immensely.  I am quite self conscious about their size and that they are noticable under my shirts even when I try to go guy mode.  And yet..I've come to a point now where either presenting as male or female I will still hold my shoulders back and present them proudly.  They may be small, but they are mine.  My heart goes out to all those woman who have lost theirs. <3

I'm a feminist and I love mine! Don't know how I feel about someone ogling them, I guess it would depend.

When I was having my facelift this summer I looked at a lot of breast implants & talked with my surgeon some. Mine are growing some & maybe to a B cup. However really nice breasts, a C cup or even a D cup for my size body would be so nice. We'll see. That would be great. So many cis women have breast implants, more than we think I'm sure. 

I didn't even get a year of development out of mine. Just compared numbers from six months ago, no change. Same for hips. HRT just grazed me physically.

After the measurement my doc started to say something about enhancement and I was all, "NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!" My girls might be small but they are mine and I love them. I was aware of my missing endowment when I wore my corset to the Ren Fair but, ya make do.

You're allowed to feel empowered about your body, it's pretty much the point of feminism

What could be wrong with us girls improving our bodies & feminine appearance. Cis women do it every day!

Very self conscious because right now I look like a guy with moobs. People think I've let myself go. Can't wait to start presenting as female.

Every feminist I know loves her body. We shouldn't let people slut shame us if we want to dress sexy, nor should we take the blame for sexual assault if we dress sexy.

Here, here GF. Thanks for your post.

Off topic - you could always go for the Jasmine Tridevil approach and have three breasts. But that is the extreme self promotion. She seems to be fame seeking enough. And spent 20k for it.

For me - I got stuck at A. It works with my figure / and they are part of me. Wish they were bigger but I am happy with what I got. I am more self conscious when wearing a sports bra in the gym - but as long as there is a mini cleavage - well push up effect - it is enough to look right without looking silly. 

Self conscious?  No way!  It never even occured to me to be self conscious of my breasts.  I love 'em!  36 DD with an "Infinite Love" tattoo over my heart... I am not shy about showing them off and accentuating them in the ways that I dress and carry myself.  Hey, it's all in good fun, right?   :)

Having been a feminist for as long as I can remember (slightly slow on the uptake about my gender but with three amazing little sisters - that's why) I can't think why a feminist might object to you enjoying your body however it suits you to. That's sort of what feminism is all about really.

That's well said, take care Rosie. Hope the elections went your way.

I was mega self conscience about mine since they weren't mature and didn't match my age with how they looked. But now they've matured greatly and I'm pretty happy with them. So I think my breasts have finally caught up with my actual age, well at least they almost have.

My breasts are great. :) They're small but they still get some action. And I flash my friends all the time. :laugh: I might get implants eventually but I'll wait a couple years to see how they continue to develop. For now all I need is a good push-up bra and I can still get some nice cleavage. :D

I am self concious about them...yaw...
They get stared at a lot by guys. I hate that! Ugh its so creepy the way they stare at them, feels that way to me anyways.

I want them to stop growing they are big enough! :/

I love my breasts I've sooooooooo wanted them since puberty

I am a bit when at work in guy mode.  I don't try to hide them much either.  Away from work, I am not at all self conscious.  They are just right.  I just ignore anyone staring if I even notice.  I have too much to think about with transitioning without trying to also change guys' behaviour towards breasts as well!

Booooooooooobs!

Aww so waiting for boobs lol 2 months hrt no signs yet:(
