Acceptance / Re: I love having boobs!

« Last post by gotgyne on Today at 02:10:27 AM »

If you go to Reddit or quora or other forums it’s clear there are plenty of men out there wearing a bra regularly for support and comfort.

The divide I think is the demographic that honestly doesn’t need a bra compared to those who legitimately do.

And those who do, to the outside world are perverts or satisfying some kink. Majority of people do not know the term gynecomastia. And if they do I’d imagine their first thought is something with women cause of the first two syllables.

I personally never seen a man in a bra. I look all the time as it’s just second nature to observe now days. And never seen straps or likes or seams that go ooo bra lol. I have no doubt when in Home Depot or the gym I’m the only man in a bra. I’ve gotten past the point of caring and just go about my day.

I love my boobs and love how they look in a bra and feel in a bra. I love my shape and love how soft my chest has become. It has nothing to do with gender of sorts and everything to do with just accepting what they have been for some time know and appreciating their changes over time. I firmly believe if the other side of this forum got over the stigma of wearing a bra they’d put one on and go yeah I’d rather go under a bra than under the knife.

I've already seen a young man with a crop top bra (link below). He wore a white one under a white t-shirt.
It was on a parking lot on a hot day. His girlfriend was with him. But nevertheless he seemed to be embarrassed, since he went back to his car and put a rucksack on his back to conceal the bra.

The good thing is, that his girlfriend obviously supported him, maybe she even suggested that he wears a bra.

Physicians know the term gynecomastia, but even some male physicians deny it if you ask them. In my 50s, as my breasts were not that big as now but a B cup, I asked a dermatologist about it. He palpated (touched) my breasts and answered "there is no gynecomastia" which almost made me laugh.

Some time ago I answered on a website to the comment of a female doctor. She had a young man with severe gynecomastia, who asked her if he should get sex reassignment surgery because of his large breasts. I commented that this is not necessary. "Either he gets surgery if he doesn't like them or he wears a bra", I answered.

She agreed and wrote that she already had suggested this to him. Female doctors often are much more aware, which is not surprising.

The daily talk shows don't bring up gynecomastia much often. This must change, that people become more aware of it.
And also at schools, as I already wrote some time ago.

This is the kind of bra, the young man wore:

Acceptance / Re: It's getting 'nipplely' outside

Padded bra for me or lightly lined with a camisole or tank over it. My problem is they are hard all the time, no matter what the temperature. My doctor says it is because of my gynecomastia. The glad behind the nipple is what is causing it.
My boobs keep growing. This is concerning for me.
Now my doctor says it could be the flomax that I take. He says there are some men that it causes breast growth. I can win it seems. So the only thing to do is accept them.
And wear a bra!!!...😃🤣

Acceptance Garments / Strapless bras

« Last post by Justagirl💃 on Yesterday at 08:04:51 AM »

My favourite go-to while wearing tank tops and such are strapless bras. Basically anytime you don't want straps showing in an open neck top. 

I have tried several brands including glamorous off Amazon, and none of them stay up and in-place as well as the Torrid Curve strapless bras. They hold everything up just as good as a strapped bra. 

Basically,  the straps don't hold the weight on a proper fitting bra, the band does. The straps are only used to keep the bra in place. The Torrid strapless uses a bead of silicone around the edges of the cups to hold the cups in-place instead.  

The results are a well fitting bra that stays  put after scooping and swooping.

Acceptance / Re: Intersex

Interesting that I found out intersex can be hereditary.  It comes from a faulty X chromosome on the mother's side causing either complete or partial androgen insensitivity.  

Complete insensitivity results in a female with XY chromosomes where as partial insensitivity results in ambitious genitalia.

I've mentioned over time on this website that my adventure with breasts and brassieres has taken me far afield.  Perhaps I'm not alone in that.  I've visited a website with men who are determined to grow breasts using herbs and other devices.  These are men who wish to remain men, not necessarily those who wish to transition.  Some have had breast implants and are happy to share photos of the result.  I've also spent time on crossdressing websites where men will wear women's clothes, including intimate garments like brassieres, panties, negligees.  Some will have gynecomastia but that is not often talked about.  Wearing forms is talked about.  Recently, I followed Birdie over to a website simply called "We Wear Bras."  Folks there often have very real breasts but not necessarily.  One man joked when answering the question "Why do you wear a bra?" saying "Because my forms would fall to the ground."  Some are inclined toward crossdressing, some talk as we do about their favorite brassieres.

I re-read this thread and it is so clear we are part of a larger community.  All of us are trying to make sense of who we are and how we wish to express our uniqueness in the world.  We are learning to love the breasts given to us as our hormones shift, whether through age or some medical treatment.  The response generally begins by focusing on comfort but often shifts toward appreciation both for the reality of having breasts and then for the brassieres and other garments we choose to care for them.  Whether we want it to happen or not, the simple fact that testosterone is diminished allowing estrogen to have her way in our bodies means both our bodies and minds are changing.  We are likely more inclined to make peace rather than war in our lives and relationships.  That seems a positive change.  It isn't always recognized along the way, but when asked to reflect on such things the changes become more evident.

Though I don't "need" to wear a brassiere I'm finding myself wanting to wear one most days.  And in doing so I'm appreciating my breasts more and more.  I'm so glad I can say that in a place where it is safe to say such things.  This is how our acceptance grows.  We step out of shame and into acceptance.  I started a thread a few years ago with a title that says is all... 

Shame to Embarrassment to Toleration to Acceptance to Appreciation to ?

Thanks for sharing your journey with all of us.  We need a community like this.  The world doesn't want to understand what we're experiencing, so we rely on kindred spirits for support.

I think the vast majority outside our circle would be surprised how many men are wearing bras.

The lingerie manufacturers and especially the mail order companies can estimate it. How many bras are ordered in large band sizes but with small cups by men?

Kudos to every man who wears a bra, completely independent of the reason.

What are your favourite choices in cold weather?

Just my normal unpadded bras. If it gets cold I wear an undershirt over the bra.

Funny but I have just found a padded bra that I quite like. It's from Boux Avenue and its called the Betsy.  I think I will get it in black rather than ivory.

Vermillon Pullover Bras are my favorite in these temps. They have a removable pad and during colder months thanks to heavier clothing it’s not a concern. I feel much more confident when I’m not showing how cold I am
