Hiding becomes more difficult

Androgynous just might be forced in public if this new bill passes in Texas:

Texas anti-trans bill would charge people with 'gender identity fraud'

Mar 11, 2025 — If passed, Tom Oliverson's House Bill 3817 would allow transgender people to be charged with "gender identity fraud," a state felony.

Sounds awful.
Any word on Oregon yet?

Don’t try to hide anymore, just down play and act as if nothing interesting to see here. Yeah, I get the occasional downward glance, but I no longer let it control me and my dress. Here’s a pic of me at the drive through.

Meanwhile I'm at a stage, that my breasts are more difficult to hide from views of others as some months earlier. I've added a pic with a sweatshirt. That's how (at least) children from below see my breasts. I must admit that I wear the pointy Triumph Doreen bra and of course it's the angle of the photo from my mobile, that enhances it a bit. From above it seems to be less. But I must face the possibility that some child may say to the mother "look mom, this man has got breasts".

I am wearing my support and medical compression pantyhose since the year 2000 with shorts and in fact a young boy asked his father "why does this man wear pantyhose"? He became red and obviously was much embarrassed. I told him not to worry and said "I like intelligent questions" and told the boy in simple words that my legs need these to function properly.

But what if a child comes with the "bra question"? Children are curious, that's normal. I simply could say "I have breasts". What would you do?

I understand that it harder to hide the girls in the warmer months.  I am wearing a Haynes spaghetti uni-bra which seems to work, when walking, so far.  Last year, this worked with muscle shirts and even some women's tank tops.  Time will tell if it works this year.

I don't hide mine at all, but it would be impossible if I wanted to. 🙄

Birdie, I agree, it would be hard for you to hide it. 😄

I have read many of your posts and understand your view. 

For some of us we deal with this, silently, with our circumstances.  I don't mean to speak for us, only me.  I only hope you understand that I am looking help with dealing how to help me with my family and friends.  Warmer weather becomes more potential exposure.  I was just looking forward to help with concealment.  I hope you respect me, as I do you.

Yes, of course! 
And in some of my posts I have posted about bra styles that are best for concealment as well (basically to stay away from molded cups).
