If it weren't for my job and knowing so many people, I wouldn't try to hide mine. I am basically proud of them and should start to wear my sports bra again. If I get braver I hope to have them measured again by a professional bra fitter. A friend's lady friend measured me at a small B cup a couple of years ago. They did get bigger since, judging by my before and after pictures. Also I could even start jogging to make them jiggle up and down to see if people notice, as I know a great walking trail quite far from where I work.

I am letting the "girls" speak for themselves!  It is kind of a twisted amusement to have people see them and wonder if they are really there or if they are crazy.

I think that it is what I would like to do for a "twisted amusement," also! In front of strangers, though!

I would like to have nice "C" feminine boobs. I would then like to display them in a noticable (natural) manner by wearing either a fitted t-shirt or top.

I was so certain that transition was right for me that I told my mum a few days before seeing my GP that i'd be transitioning, within a week every friend knew & all of the people I worked with.
It took almost 3 yrs to get HRT on the NHS so as far as i'm concerned my friends have had long enough to come to terms with the girls growing, when I go out I make no effort to hide them (they're only an A cup if i'm being generous).

When my mum visits I tone down my clothes but won't hide the girls (Mum hasn't even seen me wearing a dress/skirt yet!).
When she takes me out for a meal which we do quite often I wear my baggy Iron Maiden t shirts to hide the girls, this isn't to protect her from their existance but to protect her from some of the negative reactions I sometimes get for being trans.

I too take a twisted form of pleasure when people struggle to work out why this person has breasts & a 5 O'clock shadow, i'm also getting fond of the phrase "Do you see a pair of eyes there? Nope, that's cause my eyes are in my head not my boobs"

3 years? Why did it take so long?

Oddly enough, I wore D-cup prosthetics for over a year before the powers that be finally let me start HRT and absolutely no-one noticed. I had to ditch the prosthetic ones the true things started to grow since they're way too sore and why would I want to cover them anyways. But I don't think people will notice my budding teenage breasts in a while if they didn't notice the big ones.

We'll see, at least hopefully not noticing works out when I meet my uncle, who's the only person I'm hiding this from because he's so mentally ill that he probably couldn't handle it.

Due to severe eczema I cannot wear make-up & according to the fossils at Charing Cross that meant I wasn't fully presenting as female hence my HRT got severely held up, if the guidelines hadn't changed late last year then i'd still be banging my head against a brick wall.
Thank God for these new guidelines, they rock!!

I don't try and hide them either, and they are quite "pokie" in tank tops or t-shirts even when its warm out

Kinda fun to catch people looking at them while in boy mode nobody ever dares to say anything, except for kids like the neighbors grand daughter who said "you've got boobs!" lol

Just sent a completely random email to my older asian friend-girl (she's about 50'ish).

She knows I'm doing "something" to become younger and to soften up my looks which has been undeniably noticeable lately. She's a Buddhist and thinks any unnatural manipulation of your body is similar to genetically modified foods. (She's an organic wholefoods nut)

She's not quite onto my transitioning and doesn't really believe these kinds of things are possible. But I am dropping "funny" hints. Like so:

That's funny, I will probably live longer than the other version of ME.

Nyah!

Well. She never replied. At least it's out there.

Yup, I'm doing the same thing Jess. Had to start wearing a bra the other day, and got to do something tonight I've always wanted to do -shove money down my bra on my booby's. I sold another unneeded item today (I've been selling a lot of stuff lately so I won't have to move it, lol!), and when the guy handed me the $50. bill I shoved it right down my left booby. I have literally envied many girls over the years including my recent ex for being able to do this, and my first time it felt exhilarating! I had a big smile confusing the guy who bought the item, and such a wonderful feeling of femininity wash over me from this one small thing!

But yea it's real funny watching the looks I'm getting from my neighbors as they grow. They tell me I look so different now from when I moved in 5 years ago.

You know something, Allyda? That is probably the one thing I miss, a 'secret' stash spot.

Watch you don't get papercuts sleeping with that money stashed there, yipes!!

It's so often that traditional women's clothing are missing proper pockets, so it's only fair that there's two extra in the chest area! That's actually the one thing I miss from wearing the prosthetics since I don't use bras at the moment with my still tiny teenage breasts.

I started coming out to people about 4 years before HRT so, they are more like "Finally" than weirded out lol. They are growing quickly too, so people better get used to it :p

If there was a gender fairy that could swap you overnight, I wouldn't hesitate to do that and I wouldn't hide it either. I'm not afraid of the end result, but I am afraid of the awkward transition period.

That's how I carry my credit card and ID when I run into town, but don't know what I would do if I get a handful of change back...not sure I've ever seen girls put that in their bras lol

TO further derail:  I have well endowed friends who use their bras as a purse.  Holding $, cell phones and other necessities.  Pragmatic padding anyone?
