In the last two days at work, three people have actually attempted to use the correct pronouns for me :) And my mom is starting to know more stuff about trans identity and me being ftm. She even knows what a binder is, now (and not to put it in the dryer).
Today I came home with a headache and whined to my mom about it.
And then she's like, "maybe you should take off your boobsmasher."
BOOBSMASHER. I love it, hahaha.
(She pronounced it boob-smasher, but boobs-masher seems equally appropriate and hilarious).
:D
BOOB
SMASHER
I'M DYING.
LOL
Your mom sounds like she's putting in a good effort to learn! That's fantastic! I hope it keeps getting better for you. :D
I'm going to try to explain to my mother what a binder is when my new one comes in, in a week or so. I'm assuming she'll want to know what it is, since she tends to hover around the boxes I open since the curiosity is overwhelming for her. xD
I propose that we refer to binders exclusively as boobsmashers from now on.

I SECOND THAT MOTION SIR!
I wish my family was like this, thats just freaking awesome!
although, i have similar experiences but not so much as being trans related as it is for my tourettes. but We all get a good laugh out of the funny things that come out of my mouth, so i guess i can only win in one area but thats alright!
MY ROOMMATE ALSO CALLS IT A BOOBSMASHER! ;D
It's such a great word!
I love all the great weird and random things that people say. Orangaline, my mom's ex-bf had Tourettes, they used to be hilarious together. Glad you have people to laugh with about it!

Is it bad that I expected the joke to be about you suffering from 'manflu' and this was further confirmation you are trans?
LOL
I call bras boulder holders. I believe I hate them as much as your boobs masher. Thanks for bringing a bit of levity to the group today. We need a lot more of that sort of thing!

And now I have Otto Titsling stuck in my head.
Thank you. Sincerely. Thank you.
I prefer masher, personally. Lol. Either way your mom sounds cool.
