Hey everyone
I started to bind recently but I don't think that I'm very good at it.. I'm chubby due to overeating, so yea.. I'm a size DD and I'm 80kg and 1.60cm tall...
Do you think that I look stupid? :/
Without binder or bra..

Happy holidays..
No you don't look stupid!!
I am a big guy too (270lbs and 5' 6") and have started binding. It is very difficult because of my size and being so new on T I don't bind regularly (too physical at work). But when I'm out and about with my wife and family, I am binding more. I makes me feel good about myself all in all. I have learned to wear bigger style shirts. I went clothes shopping with the binder on so I could get shirts that fit better with it. Worked well!
Just wanted to say you don't look stupid, from your pics you look flat chested.
Looking good -- not stupid!
Of course you do NOT look stupid... The question is how do YOU FEEL when binding? (Other than physically uncomfortable of course) Are you less anxious about your body when binding? Does your reflection in the mirror more closely resemble how you feel your body is supposed to look? Are social situations less anxiety-provoking while presenting in a binder?
Nice Bow Tie!
Didn't notice early, that is a nice bow tie :)
you definitely don't look stupid! as trace said, it matters most how binding makes you feel about yourself. do what makes you comfortable/happy. you look great, both binding and not binding.
(and that bowtie is SO RAD)
