1. Are you receiving any Gender Affirming Care (or plan to in the future)?
“Yes, I currently wear a binder on days where I feel I can withstand it. In the future, I plan to take small doses of testosterone and undergo a top surgery.”

2. Did you run into any troubles receiving said care?
“Yes, buying binders discreetly was very hard as my mother is very transphobic though she plays it off as ‘being uncomfortable.’ Wearing binders around my family was very hard as well, since they love to notice subtle things about my clothes and even my body. Hopefully it’ll be easy for me to get testosterone in the near future after seeing the results of this most recent election. If all else fails, I may have to locate one of the last planned parenthood’s out there to find an alternative.”

3. Are you happy with the results?
“I’m thoroughly surprised with the results of the most recent binder I’ve purchased. I’ve lost a bit of weight too, so it’s easier to breathe and move around in this one specifically.”
