My Gynaecomastia Clothing Exploration
I'm still (obviously) working out my clothing strategy.
This post looks at the various types of breast support I've tried, and what works for me.
What works for me, may not work for you.
The M&S bras that I bought first are excellent.
Not at all sweaty and they fit. The monster sports bra has lightly moulded padding and the 'invisible' one works a treat with the thin padding from a Primark crop top. The original M&S padding is too curvy
Both of these bras reduce nipple sensitivity to zero as they have a degree of padding.
I'm wearing Primark crop tops in bed, despite them being rather thick. The ones I was given have lost much of their original elasticity, so I bought some new ones - complete with padding. These are really good in bed and might also work for daytime at a pinch even though they haven't got much support.
I've got a pack of three cheap(ish) Amazon sports bras that are lightly padded and very supportive, but are definitely boil-in-bag devices.
Who knew tits could sweat so much?
I need to get something for around the house (maybe in shocking red or pink!). I've got a couple of cheapish bras coming from eBay, including an underwired one - cheap enough that if they don't work then they can go to the bottom of the pile.
I've discovered that my polo shirts gape at the neck, making my underwear visible so I'm going to start putting a couple of stitches in to supplement the buttons. Tee shirts are better.
Black or at least dark coloured tops work best at disguise - on a photo today with a black t shirt, nothing was visible. This is a very good thing!
Perhaps this sounds like I've accepted these things on my chest. I haven't yet, but I know I've got to live with them, so I'm having to be reluctantly pragmatic.
