Acceptance / Re: I love my gynecumastia. Anyone else?
« Last post by Justagirl💃 on March 26, 2024, 01:43:55 AM »
Perhaps it is a utopian hope, but I do see a day when clothing is just clothing, and anyone can wear whatever without any reason to fear as it is a non issue. It has gotten easier in some parts of various countries but not everywhere.
A good friend of mine (obviously male) lives a bit north of London in the UK. He is known to wear skirts whilst shopping and scurrying about town without trouble at all. Of course there are a few that might ask questions, but that's the extent of it.

If he were to do the same in my neck of the woods he would surely be met with many harsh remarks (I have seen examples here in Texas). 
I am quite lucky that I pass quite well myself, but I have seen others that can't pass being verbally assaulted on several occasions. 

The US is a very conservative country with lingering 'puritan' values. Of course that's changing in some states and cities, but for the most part still rings true, especially in the south and rural areas. 

Truth be known, trousers were initially designed for women, and it wasn't that long ago that everyone wore robes. I find it quite funny that people will quote the bible when condemning someone about their clothes choices when men and women wore the same robes back in biblical times. The difference was the head covering.
The prohibitions against wearing clothes of the opposite gender in the bible could only be about 'cross contamination'. Remember that menstrual cycles rendered a person unclean as did discharges in males.

Sorry that happened to you Birdie but I am glad you can see the humor in it.  I always try to find the humor in every thing in life.

YW! Weird how adding clothes seems to have made it more salacious. 😉

Acceptance / Crossdressers Excited by Their Gynecomastia
« Last post by 42CSurprise! on March 25, 2024, 02:52:45 PM »
I was visiting a CD website and noted a conversation started by someone who was excited because they'd been given a diagnosis of gynecomastia and that there is nothing wrong with their breasts.  Interestingly, quite a few participants spoke about their breast development.  It is funny to think about the distress encountered on this website when the subject of crossdressing has come up... with men insisting that is not what their decision to wear a brassiere is all about.  Crossdressers on the other hand were intent on buying breast forms so they'd have something with which to fill their favorite brassieres.  I know these are two different worlds but the excitement of this fellow at his diagnosis made me smile.  I had to contribute a post making reference to our conversations... though without reference to the specific website.  This is what I wrote...

I first came to this website after spending a fair amount of time online with men discussing gynecomastia and the reality breasts are growing on our chests. The struggle for many was whether the decision to wear a brassiere meant the men were "crossdressing." That was a bridge too far for many but our conversation soon moved to the reality developing curves made shopping on the woman's side of the aisle sensible. Diminishing testosterone seems to allow estrogen to have her way with us, so rounding curves, more relaxed mood, diminishing body hair all come with the territory. I completely fill the C cups of my 42" brassiere. Interestingly, the conversation has led to discussions about transgender possibilities. One person transitioned a few years ago. Another is so fond of women's clothes that I encouraged them to check out this website. I will fully acknowledge being non-binary, transgendered but not transitioning. My breasts are quite voluptuous and I'm happy about that... even though I have no intention to flaunt that fact outside my home.
 
I'm glad there is nothing wrong with you chest. Since you've been here a few years I can imagine the thought of having real breasts is exciting for you. I've wanted them since I first put on a brassiere when I was 12 years old... and now I have them. Amazing how our bodies change over a lifetime. Enjoy yourself. You might want to buy a new brassiere... that always gives me pleasure... [img title=Cheer]http://www.crossdressers.com/forums/images/smilies/cheer.gif[/img]
Intersecting worlds I guess... at least ithey are for me since I visit that site from time to time .

Absolutely... if I'd had breasts like this in my late teens and twenties I'd probably have gotten into a great deal of trouble... different, of course, from the trouble I DID get into during those years...  Of course, I'm thinking about today's more gender-bending climate than conditions as they existed when I was in my late teens and twenties.  I know many are troubled by gender fluidity but I'm not one of them.  In a way, it all seems healthier emotionally.  But here we are... meeting life on life's terms as they say in the 12 Step world... breasts and all.

Thanks for sharing the photo with all of us Traveler...

😂😂😂
Of course I don’t go out like that!
Though, sometimes I wish we could be open like that. Heck, if we were in our twenties, we might get away with it.

I have to say I still do! Love looking down and seeing cleavage. I cover them up pretty well but I still get a grin on my face when I catch someone glancing down at my chest.
If you're going to show off your lovely breasts like that I don't blame people for staring!    You're a naughty "boy."

Acceptance / Re: Transgender But Not Transitioning

I haven't had any problems here in the USA. I pay a $15.00 co-pay for a 90 day supply. 

For me, rather than being prescribed for transgender HRT, it is prescribed as preventice care for bone loss prevention and reduced cardiovascular disease.

Sophie, have you had any difficulty in keeping up with your supply of patches? There's been a big shortage of them here over the past year or so, I think it has been in other countries too.

The other effects that I am truly enjoying are my increasing level of patience as well as my empathy and listening skills. It was my wife who first noticed that if I have to wait for an appointment for either at the doctor's or the salon, or even waiting in traffic I am much more calm.

♥️Sophie♥️
Whether it is due to a personally rising estrogen level (I've never been tested) over the past couple of years or something else, I have also felt a lot calmer within myself too, with patience being the standout. Most of the time now, I feel truly serene. 😉
