I used to bind with ace tape or something for cosplay some years back. Terrible stuff to bind chests with and it didn’t even get the job done.
Now I find my own binders don’t bind me enough either and many people still tend to complain that they can see my chest. Well fuck you too, right.
But not after hitting a dip I’m seriously crying with happiness.
I’ve combined the...

I really hate it when being trans* is compared to...
pinupboy:
If that’s how one person feels about their own body, that’s okay. But when one person says “this is how all trans* people feel,” it’s irritating.
Like, when they say “Telling a trans man not to get top surgery is like telling a kid born with HIV not to take medication for it!” Which is based on an actual example I just saw.
Some people do dislike their bodies, but to say that...

Came out with my new name to my friends today on...
I have two Facebook accounts, one has only a whooping total of 6 friends who I trust. I go there when I need to get away from all the stress and frustration my main gives me.

Picking a new name.
This is the worst thing for me.
I was given a name that can easily be a boy’s name too when you take away the last two letters.
But I’m not entirely sure how I feel about being Joel instead of Joelle. They’re too similar, and my birth-name does not have the most pleasant memories. If I were to pick another name I’d probably go for Jack or Jake. Those names have always...
Introduction.
This tumblr is more or less a place away from my main tumblr.
I feel not everyone who follows me there should have to deal with my moods. With that said, this account is one where I should be able to not hide in fear of posting things I feel have no place on my main, or on FB, or anywhere. To those who stumble upon this blog, and recognize me from my picture; I am sorry if you wished to know...
