Gym and Lines

[Dudewithboobs]

One of the biggest issues for me in wearing a bra and underwear is the gym. It’s a fairly discreet trip from work to gym on a road with not much going on and will often just quickly change in the car, opting to take my bra off in the process and going braless in the gym to avoid anyone seeing the longer endowed lines on my back or chest through my shirts that I feel are quickly identified as a bra not a tank top even in the tank top style bras. 

As well, I often wear more basketball style than running shorts to avoid my underwear lines showing. I’m an avid runner and a year ago or so I switched to women’s underwear exclusively. Not a feminine choice just wore men’s style bikini briefs for running and the thick cotton was tough but style more comfortable than boxers or briefs and tried panties and viola here we are. 

But have always been so insecure that people can see my underwear lines when working out or running as they stretch when in motion against the body. But then it dawned on me. Why would I be insecure if someone can see my lines if they make male underwear that is commonly seen in the same cut and style? 

What went from insecure and hope no one can tell has gone to just regular nothingness or mindfulness of it. 

Anyone else have realizations of things like this that helped you get over the security of garment but insecurity of it being seen?

Old timer here. Practiced for 44 years and have seen a lot. I should/ could write a book. It would not include anything about a bra in a locker room. When I got to 44C I just went to ‘ It is what it is ‘ . Now years later  at 44D it is interesting to note that not one remark has ever been made and I go very frequently and make no effort to conceal my condition. 
You’ll be amused in a while at the efforts you made to remain unobserved when the it is what it is attitude takes hold.

Thanks for the input. Glad to hear even as a D cup things haven’t been difficult to go about with. Seen guys today in the gym with racerback workout shirts on and obviously male but felt hell why am I not wearing a bra. If someone saw my outline I’m sure they’d assume he’s wearing a racerback tank under. Not a bra. Been looking at longline bras as well today for the more lengthier cut to try and avoid the mid back outline that always had me in my head about being seen

Have thought about that but in retirement there’s not a lot extras for luxury or experimentation.

I can't go up a flight of stairs let alone run without some level of support, and my boobs and nipples are.much more noticeable without a sports bra. I can wear a loose fitting tank with a pullover sports bra, with it jist looking like I have larger pecs and a compression shirt if anyone took notice. I've accepted bras for 2 years now, and I've also realized that the only reason I was hypervigilant about pokies and bra straps being noticed is because I have them and was fixated on them. I've never had anyone notice or say anything.
