this certain way is done with medical/sports tape, i do not suggest it to people who have never tried, i have actually torn skin right off my chest doing this

Oh, ace bandages are safe though right?

ace bandages have their downfall too, if done too tight they can cause bruised or cracked ribs and dificulty breathing, ace bandages wouldnt be able to do an open shirt binding such as this, you need a sticky medical tape, but as i said, i do not suggest this method to anyone, the pain of having the skin of your chest torn off is not something i would wish apon my worst enemy

Oh okay. I have been using ace bandages for awhile now, I have only had trouble breathing I think only once or twice. Does the medical tape really hurt that bad?

i use the medical tape to do open shirt bindings, i can post a picture of the scars on my chest if you want, i'm pretty wreaked, lol and it was fucking painful, i made quite a few mistakes with it that time i did the binding, i am in the process of making a proper tutorial, with warnings and how to do it properly, it's just been put on hold with everything else i have to do at the moment.
my suggestion, if you're using ace bandages and are just doing closed shirt binding, do what i did... buy a compression shirt, i'll post a pic of myself in it in a couple of hours, lol, i bought 2 a black one and a white one, singlet style, payed about $40 AUSD for it, and it was the best purchase i've ever made, i live in them

Oh thanks, do you know of a good place to buy compression shirts?, sorry if I am asking you to many questions.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
there are 2 places that sell them, i cant remember where i got mine from, but another place that sells them is T-Kingdom [link]
also there is a good guide to binding that i read long ago [link]
also, if you want really good advise and support there is a forum i follow called CP.net at this link [link]
i'll post some pics of the damage to my chest and my compression shirt on here in a few hours, and any other questions you have i'd be more than happy to answer ^_^

Oh thank you so much, it really means alot!
Oh and I have another question, besides binding, is there anything else that could make me look more male?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i use face shadowing when i need to, if i get time i'll do a tutorial on that too, i have done a bit of a run down on CP.net, you can find me under VelvetRainDrops on there, my gallery has a photo of my shadowing.
other than that, work on your build, remember your posture, remember, males have broader shoulders and wide sturnums, so stand up tall and shoulders back
if you're getting photo's work out your angles in a mirror first, the angles of your face that make your jaw line stronger.
mens jeans are always good to wear, when you're sitting (or even standing) the way the zipper sits makes you look like you've got something down there, even though you dont.
other than that it's all about your attitude, i mean personally when i'm my male self i'm VERY egotistic, and i'm alot more confident, which makes me a bit of a womaniser (aka man whore XD), just build up a character for yourself that you're comfortable with, but is still you at heart.
