Talk:Binding

I really need a binder ASAP. I'm 12 and I am getting really dysphoric around my chest. I'm pangender and my parents are not at all supportive of anybody who isn't cis. I can't tell them that I need a binder, so I kinda have to fend for myself in that aspect. Please, please, anybody message if they know a good store that sells binders. My problem isn't that I don't have the money to purchase a binder, but that if my parents find out that I purchased one, I will be kicked out. Just saying, I live in the US, so I can only buy from places that ship there. I'm probably going to get it shipped to my friends house. Please, can anybody help me?

My sibling came out a few months ago, and I get frustrated at how little people know about bigender. They always ask why I switch out pronouns when talking about her, such as one of our favorites "She's my brother". Half the time they will end up telling me it's stupid or wrong, that my sibling is confused ect. Even my parents didn't get it, when he was going to a dance and got in a dress and had makeup and everything, then looked in the mirror and went "Grr, manly man!" I love them so much, and it breaks my heart everytime someone says something ignorant or hateful about him. He's just living her life, and yes, switching pronouns randomly makes them happy.

I know. I'm pangender and literally nobody knows about it. I say that I'm pangender and they say "So, you are a girl?" Like, nope. I actually hate being AFAB though. That might sound really rude, but it is impossible for me to buy a binder, I'm 12. It is the worst for me. Other people might have other experiences though.

I've always used a binder, but I've heard that taping provides more mobility? Just want to know if anybody can tell me if it's true
