Male to females developing breasts have a tendency to have breasts that are further apart with nipples that point out.  I was just wondering if taping the breasts together would help remedy that problem over time?

As I understand it, that has quite a bit to do with only the fibrous tissue developing, and not the glandular tissue, which requires activiation by progesterone. I would be sceptical of taping, since that might lead to the same kind of problems as one tends to get from tight binding. (constriction and under-development)

This is definitely a major concern for me as well though, and I wonder if anybody has other suggestions for correcting it.

I'm actually a member of a corset forum and they don't believe that corsetting, safely and gradually, hurts.

And rawr.  I just figured that eventually the tug on the breasts might move them inwards, IDK.  I wouldn't even know what kind of tape to use, I tried some tape I use to keep my patches on and it ripped some skin off taking it off:-(

I don't think you should tape them as that can ruin the shape of them.

ask yourself this: do gg's tape their breasts? NO!

It think you should wait at least 6 months on E alone and then start on progesterone for further development...

However massaging them will help and can increase size along with shaping them.

Owowowowowow!

Breasts are definitely malleable. Girls who've always worn bras since the start of development end up with better tits in the long run than girls who go without them.

I've just been wondering something that I've seen on some other places as well. How the hell do you manage to rip skin off with tape??? I mean if it hurts pulling on the tape stop and try something else? Now I don't mean to be rude or anything, especially since I haven't to date tried to tape body parts with soft skin, but I can't seem to get past the mental picture of madly yanking a piece of tape that's taped to a known tender part of the body. Does not compute.

Other than that I do think that the underlaying theory behind taping them is viable, though perhaps find a way where you save skin?

This is most useful info, master Nero. Thank thee for pointing out this nugget of gold...

Hi, Nero, do you know that is why they call it a training bra?  It is to train the developing breasts, not the person on whom they are developing.

Pardon my choppy writing style.  I always find intimate conversation like this to be uncomfortable with a guy.

Hi All
I wouldn't put anything around my breasts that is restricting. I use to tape down there though when I wore a baithingsuit to the beach. It took six years for me to grow my breast size to 36-B which is a normal proportion to my body, I am smaller then most average women. "Hey" I saw one today in the supermarket who was actually shorter then I am.  As fore corsets, they are great if you are planing on loosing a few pound on your ponch, but the downside is when one is wearing snug fitting tops the corset shows through it. but then walking around a few blocks every day works well too.

I've tried taping my breasts, but they're very shy and stop singing every time I press the record button.  >

Sorry... well, OK, not really, or I wouldn't have said it

I somehow doubt you can modify the shape of breasts substantially with a bra, if it was constricting enough to do so it would hurt you!

If you've got AA or A in (32-36) or even B (in 32-34), the weight of fat there is very very small so I don't see how letting the cooper's ligament support the breasts be bad, especially when its only for a few years when growing.

Training bras offer a ridiculously low amount of support so they're no chance they'll "train" the breasts if such thing is even possible.

It is to "train the user", it has a cosmetic and social role.

I've heard of ladies using this product with some success.  It's a type of bra that gives the breast shape and size. It's called the brava bra and on their web site you can get in touch with an expert and Med. professionals.

For  more info the  site is :   www.brava.com

Training bras are for preteen girls to use while their breasts are still too small to fit into regular sizes, but are either: sliiiightly big enough to show through a shirt, or the girl is super-eager and wants to wear a bra as soon as possible to feel grown up.    Nothing more.  I suppose it is 'training' to wear a 'real' bra.

I fell into the latter group, btw.. 

But, yeah.  Training bras do not change the shape of the breasts.  My breasts changed shape over the years naturally, as they stopped growing and the.. er.. 'contents' settled a little.  The shape you have while they are growing/right after they've stopped growing is not the shape you will have after a year or two.  Gravity does the work; bras do not.  Unless, as has been mentioned, they are faaaar too restrictive.

As for taping.. I.. I don't see how that would help, to be honest..

LMAO

So is that a yes or no to the training bra?

No, lol.  I'm gonna get one of those tape on bras and stuff.

I haven't got any breasts big enough to tape. After breast augmentation I will then approach the subject if needed..

I don't know about that. Not scientific of course, but I wore my training bra constantly, even to bed because of the dysphoria (liked something covering them) and they turned out real nice. If I hadn't always worn a bra of some kind, sport or regular, mine'd probably sag now.

Well, I can see the part about not letting them sag, but the effect a training bra would have on shape?  I don't see how it happens.  I'd rather mine were perky than saggy.  Though my sister is only a B so I probably won't have to worry about sagging since they won't get very big.
