    Hi guys.

    So I'm trying to figure out what gender I identify with, and I really want to buy a binder. My problem, however, lies in the fact that I'm not out - to anyone. I can afford to buy a binder and have it delivered, but do the packaging on them tend to be discreet enough for my parents not to know what it is?

    Thanks for any help.

    Hmmm... Well I doubt they'll write binder all over the package. I got a binder from T kingdom and it was in a white bag and nothing else. Unless you think your parents are going to read the label and track the company down you're probably fine. Discreet shippig can be figured out if they really wanted to be nosy.

    None of the binders I've gotten have been blatant. Just white bags. You could ask a close friend if you could mail it to their house? I know if I got a package at home my mom would want to know what it was whether it was white or had rainbows all over, haha. I'd probably just say I ordered sports bras if anyone asked, because that's essentially what they are.

    I got one from underworks it arrived in a plain black bag and the binder looks just like an ordinary t-shirt, have a look on their site they've got some good ones.
