Horrible Binders

I just want to share my experience with a really commonly bought binder,

So back in 2013, there were not a lot of good binders online and the ones that were, were expensive. Trans teens don’t always have the money to buy a nice binder like a Gc2B. This was a really popular option for most trans people i used to talk with 5 years ago.

GIRL WE FUCKED UP

Ok, so this binder will cause you irreversible damage to your ribs/back/neck , anywhere it wants. The material its made out of is similar to a life jacket. Its very constrictive , and the latches on the side are more dangerous. I hate latches, as they can encourage a person to bind tighter than they should. Wearing a binder like this is as comparable to having your chest strangled.

TW: Injuries

So like I mentioned I have had this binder. I had 2 separate ones and used them consistently for over 3 years. It has completely ruined my future experience with binding.

•Bottom ribs are flared out

•Chronic pain in bottom rib cage

•Weakened shoulder tendon, causes you to throw out your back.

(I can’t reach for milk at at school sometimes or my whole shoulder feels like it caught on fire)

Indigestion from how crowded organs are

Inabilities to bind with out severe pain and aches

Phlegm build up because coughing is painful

Necrosis (lumps form on breasts from damaged tissue)

Shortness of breathe, dizziness

Poor blood circulation

My main purpose of this post is to inform everyone of this terrible binder. If you own this, throw it AWAY.

I don’t know if the quality of them has improved, but i can bet they aren’t.

Any binder not marketed towards transgender individuals is most likely made terribly. It says cosplay, and i wouldn’t even recommend a cosplayer buy this, it could hurt them.

seriously tho throw that shit out don’t ever bind with these.
