Title: what should I do???
Post by: Jake Truong on March 08, 2011, 11:14:30 AM
 Hey guys,
Im in a hard situation and i dont know what to do.
Im working as a waiter in a restaurant in my city. My colleagues don't know that i am a girl, 'cause I got a haircut, dressed and act like a boy, 'cause myself really is one. And i got my girlfriend comes to see me everyday i work there. My job was good. But now, they've decided to change the uniform. I just needed to wear a shirt so it helps me alot to hide my breasts. I dont have big ones, honestly, so most of the time i don't wear a bra, so people wont find out when they touch my back or something. My brothers in the restaurant really like me, and they always treat my as their brother. But now, they force the staff to wear a thin t-shirt. with that, i can not hide my breasts. I am so nervous. I dont want the secret to be found out. What people will think 'bout me? Do you guys know any tips for my situation. Please help me.

I suppose you could try layering.  By which I mean wearing a tee-shirt or a tank top under your tee-shirt.  The extra material might help some.

Otherwise you might consider binding.  I wearing my tri-top binder from underworks and I wear tight shirts all the time.  No one has ever felt it under my clothing that I know of.  No one has ever said to me, "OMG you are wearing a binder!  You must be transgender!  Get away from me Satan" or whatever. 

That's just not where people's mind goes.  They accept what they perceive to be true.  So if they view you as a male, which they should, they will continue to do so.  Unless they get major evidence that you are not.  Most people don't even know what a binder is.

Thanks guys.
Im gonna face a hard situation.Because in my country it's not easy to find and buy such things that you guys recommended.
However, I'll try my best.
I can't wait 'till the day i get to San Francisco and have my top surgery dream comes true.
Those surgeries are damn expensive. Gosh life is so long and there are many things that needed to be experienced !
