Hey guys. This is a HUGE issue for me. I dont know what i should do. I dont exactly have a credit card so i cant by ftm swimwear, but because of the heat where i live, i cant just stay away from swimming. Im frustrated because ive been shopping for bikini tops so i can fit in a a chick through summer but its so uncomfortable. I really dont know what i should do now. Any suggestions?
Okay, so maybe instead of bikinis, you should look into sports oriented swimwear. Like board shorts and sport swimsuit tankini tops like or they have other ones. I'm not trans, but I feel uncomfortable in a lot of women's clothes, so I prefer to wear stuff like this. Not sure if that's helpful, but good luck
My current trick (although swimming is far, far more avoidable up here ) is a sports-ish one piece bathing suit that's a bit on the small side (cheapo-me uses his from eight years ago) with board shorts and a semi-loose t-shirt that can take a bit of abuse.
I would say go to a clothing optional beach. Nobody judges you there and people are all the same in everyone's eyes. If you cannot get to one as there are only a few around the planet, try a t shirt top maybe. There is nothing wrong with swimming in a t shirt. At least I think.
