    Because where else would turn for advice on binders.

    So me and best friend are going to the movies then Walmart to kill time. I want to wear my binder so that I can by a shirt (also will buy boxers if I can figure out my size). But I don't know if I should wear the binder. I've only worn it three times and while I never had a problem with it, but I heard need to break myself in slowly. So I don't know if I should wear it for the 4-5 hours we are out, or just put a bra on and forget the shirt. Maybe I should wear hinder to Walmart then take it off in restroom and go to movie with bra on, but I really wanna wear my new shirt to the movies.
    Any advice? I don't want to wear it for to long. I guess the bra and extra shirt could be brought just in case...
    Then the bathroom thing. With a binder on I can pass as a dude without trying, but I'm not comfortable with men's restroom, but I would feel weird looking like a guy in the woman's restroom. There is no gender neutral bathroom at the movies or I would pop in there :/
