Snao Cone Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Underwear type seems to be important to many men based on comfort, but I don't think they have as many hangups around other clothes...except for maybe how easy it is to take care of them. They aren't expected to display shapeliness (at least not as much) and don't have boob sensitivity to worry about. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously I'm a weird case, but as a guy I was pretty particular about my clothes too. I liked things that were durable, and simple. In many ways, I still do. I like quality over quantity. The only difference now is that I ask myself, "how are my boobs gonna look in this?" 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Te•gurah Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I had a child 9 years ago before then I hardly had sex with the person I was with. He would have to do things to get me in the mood. After I had my daughter I still did not like having sex. Then I decided to be with someone I really loved finally that everybody is gone. However, even the first time it was hard for me. So off and on for the past 7 years he has been the only one. Our Companionship he ended 3 years ago. I think because, I gave him a very hard time. One night. I guess it is best for me to stay single. My doctor said that I should not have sex because, of my olvaries. Besides, it is not like he will marry me. I can say that I am happy not being able to be hugged or kissed.

LVG Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Although I wish I was a little bigger, being smaller in the chest does offer the advantage of being able to wear any type of shirt. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I prefer them going up to my waist past the bulgy gut, but as I'm high waisted that doesn't always last long. They often roll down and sit around my belly button, which makes half my bulgy gut sit over them (if that makes any sense). Wearing a camisole helps hide that, as it's a little looser. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But the emroidered shirt is a short-sleeved one for the summertime. I was actually thinking about using a band aid when wearing it next time.

Well, funny (and true) story...I was so oblivious when my boobs started coming in. I was mostly focused on recovering from a bike accident at the time. So I kind of forgot that I was transitioning. The sensitivity took me by surprise. I remember wearing an oxford cloth shirt at the time, which isn't the softest stuff in the world. I ordered a bra the next day. It was brutal. Then like a month later when things really started growing, the just general soreness started and I remember my friend came to visit. She gave me such a big hug and I just winced. I mentioned it later, and she was like, "yeah, I noticed that, hooray for boobs!" Speaking of which, I'm in the unique position of being able to compare getting hit in the boob and getting smacked in the balls. I have to be honest, the balls hurt worse, but usually not at first, it takes a while for the pain to really set in. Getting hit in the boob, especially a growing one, was just an instant pang of pain. Hell, I remember when the sensitivity was really bad even just grazing it with the strap to my bag would do it. No thanks! 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Snao Cone Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Breast sensitivity varies a lot (for me, at least) due to hormones, so it might be worse for women on HRT, if that makes the boobs more sensitive. Since I'm on the pill it's not so bad, but there's still some days that hurt more than others. I need to wear bras that have a thick enough cups to basically remove outside stimuli to my nipples, just for my own comfort. I don't like to feel the breeze on my areolae, no way. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think it varies a lot for everyone. I still couldn't really go without a bra unless the shirt material was really soft and forgiving. Fortunately, I'm basically done growing now so there isn't as much general soreness, which is nice. Sad that I'm not growing anymore though. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BlasterBlurby Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Speaking of ridiculous women's fashion. I just went to kohl's yesterday and had a very hard time finding a cute shirt that wasn't completely see through! Its all winter clothing and styles, but the shirts are so thin you could count my belly freckles and most of the sweaters were backless! I could believe it. Every time I found a nice sweater, I'd flip it around and it'd be backless. Who the heck in wearing backless sweaters in winter?! 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You pretty much have to these days. I just wanted to wear something that didn't have to be layered. I think its all scheme to make you buy more clothing. $20 for the shirt, $10 for the cami, and then the shirt's so thin that it wears out quick and you have buy a replacement. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
