    I identify somewhere in the vast void that is genderqueer, but am not out to any family as they are transphobic and being kicked out is not an option as I am only 14 years old.
    Due to this it means I cant get a binder which sucks because I get really dysphoric about my breasts.
    I could probably buy a binder if I raised enough money, but for now I cant, and even if I did it would mean explaining to my family..
    Basically, I need help coming up with a way to get a binder without revealing my gender identity, and which binder to get if I am allowed one.
    Help?

    This is a great website, but especially this section could be helpful, if you can get the money. ^^ If not, wearing sports bras can help, I've heard. One on the right way round, and one on back-to-front.

    Thank you for replying!
    I'll have a look at the links.
    Is the sports bra method suitable for people with slightly larger breasts? Because I have C-D, and have heard it can be quite difficult to do.

    That's Ok. ^^

    Don't ask me! ^^ I assume that it would work to some extent, but it will never be as good as a binder.
