If you think transandrophobia is "trans men think they're oppressed because people don't smile at them in the street anymore and they still get paid less" you are missing the point so fucking hard its unbelievable

Although most folks who bind probably already know these things, I know sometimes it helps to actually hear from someone who has experience, so I just want to remind y'all that double binding and using a smaller binder don't make your chest flatter and they're not worth the risks.
I'm someone with a large chest. People regularly assume I'm not binding until they see me without a binder - because if you have a large chest, there's only so much you can flatten without top surgery. Unfortunately for a lot of us it's impossible to look flat even with a great quality binder and clever layering because your chest doesn't magically disappear, it still has to go somewhere.
The amount of dysphoria this caused me led to experimentation with double binding. Double binding made my chest slightly flatter - but the effect was so little, nobody noticed besides me, and the agonizing pain it resulted in wasn't even worth it. It makes it difficult to breath from basic movement, and even if you aren't moving, just sitting there with two binders on becomes painful and irritating after a few hours. Again, your binder will never be able to get rid of your chest. It can compress it, and you will find that some binders work better than others, but your chest is still there underneath your binder, and your binder can only flatten so much. If you feel as though your binder isn't binding as much as it could, look into either going a size up or trying a binder from another company.
I think the misconception that a smaller binder would result in a flatter chest comes from the idea that a tighter binder does a better job. But it actually does a noticeablely worse job. For months I wore a binder too small for me, daily. There wasn't enough room, and my chest sort of "spilled over" under my arms/the sides of the binder. On top of that, I began to experience reoccurring flares of pain in several areas even when I wasn't binding. This was remedied when I sized up, and the compression was a lot more even, therefore doing a better job.
Anyway I hope this information is useful to folks. I know it's really tempting to ignore safety tips, especially when your dysphoria is debilitating, but from personal experience it isn't worth it. And if you feel like your binder isn't compressing as much as it should, please consider buying a size or two up, or looking into binders from other companies or other styles.

A poem I've written in a fit of dysphoric frustration
my very first one, at that
When I settled into my house and truly began making it into a home, I realized my neighbors must have never truly seen me move in. I hear them talk all about the woman they assume to be the occupant just inches away from the doorstep I try desperately to make my own. the doorstep they still believe belongs to this mystery girl. Always staring confused when they don't see "her." outside. Always assuming "she" must be out of town and will be back soon. Always judging what must have come over that poor "girl." I see the world through a window In the shape of her eyes, and behind the ocular windows, I sit and watch my neighbors. Watching them stare at "her" house, wondering Watching them assume what "she" must be doing, wondering Watching them judge the actions of this "girl", wondering, Wondering what would happen should they learn she is no longer the houses occupant? What will happen to me when I change the exterior of her house? Why do I feel pressure to keep up some facade that their darling girl still lives here? I am not her, nor have I ever been, yet I feel this intense guilt. Guilt for simply being myself in what once was her space. Why must I sit in silence while they continue to believe this in woman? This mystery of the beautiful girl they believe so strongly to be staring out behind the stained and scratched glass of what once was her home. This is my house. Not hers. Their seemingly beloved lady moved out a long time ago. And in spite of them all, I will make this home mine.

Hot take but if having a visible chest is poisoning your mind and soul and you finally feel free to be rid of it then those were not "healthy breasts" that you cut off as terfs love to claim, they were psychological tumors seeping toxins into your minds bloodstream

Unexpected Gender Affirming Thing
At work there is a room where behavioral testing of mice are being conducted and mice have apparently been shown to be sensitive to testosterone. As a result men are not allowed to enter it as it would sway the data of the studies.
I pause and I have to go "Wait then I can't go in either cause I take T and have male level testosterone." and theyre like "well, yeah you can't. I mean if the mice say no, the mice say no."
Like POG mice think Im a man.

How to make a sock packer
This is the quick and easy method I use to make a realistically-sized sock packer. It seems like a lot of the baby transmascs out there making sock packers make them very large and often disproportioned. Or with complicated recipes involving tape and pantyhose. Which is totally fine if that's what you want. But if I may be so bold as to present my method, here it is:
1. Start with a pair of socks that have some length above the ankle.
They can be any size, but you might need to adjust your folding and scrunching technique for larger or smaller socks to achieve a similar end result. I like this pair of beige dress socks that I own bc they're a good size and roughly match my skin tone.
(if you can't read the ruler, it's about ten inches from the toe to the top of the sock)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
2. First we make the phallus. Take one sock and roll it up, starting at the toe.
When you reach the heel, there will be a bit of 'extra' fabric. I usually fold this back to form a sort of "head" for the phallus, but it doesn't really make a difference. You can roll right past it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
3. Now fold the top of the sock back over the roll to secure it.
Since my socks are ~3 inches wide, the phallus is about 3 inches long. Flaccid dicks come in a range of sizes, with an average length of about 3.5 inches. For me, three inches feels perfect.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
4. It's ballsack time. Get your second sock.
To make the first ball, roll and scrunch the sock starting at the toe. Work your way up the sock, adding fabric to the scrunched ball until you like the size (or have used roughly 1/3 of your sock). My ball sizes are based on vibes. Real testicles are on average roughly 1 inch in diameter and oval-shaped.
Tumblr media
5. Twist the sock once and fold it inside out, so that the scrunched ball is inside the sock.
This helps secure the ball and keep it separate from ball #2.
Tumblr media
6. Twist and fold inside out again, to secure the first ball.
I find that doing this again keeps the ball more secure and defined. But if you're short on fabric, you can skip this step. At the end of this step, you should have a "right side out" sock with a ball in the toe.
The photo shows the twist I made before folding inside out.
Tumblr media
7. Scrunch/roll more sock to make a second ball.
I usually have to do this step a couple times, going back to adjust the size of ball 1 so that it matches ball 2. It's normal for balls to appear uneven, so don't fret if they aren't perfectly identical. It will look fine in the sack. Make sure to keep enough sock left over for the next step.
Tumblr media
8. Twist and fold the sock inside out again, so that both balls are inside.
Congratulations, now you have a ballsack.
Tumblr media
9. Put the dick and balls together.
There are several ways to achieve this. My preferred method is to actually slide the base of the phallus sock into the "sack" of balls sock. I think this creates a realistic shape against my body when packing because of how the base of the phallus sits on top of the balls.
Other methods include: safety pin the base of the phallus to the ballsack, put both the ballsack and the phallus inside of a third sock, or just leave them separate and pack them in a pouch.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
10. Congratulations on your penis.
You can secure it to your underwear with a safety pin, pack it in briefs or a pouch, and even hook it through an o-ring if you safety pin the shaft and balls together.
Here is the sock packer compared with an Axolom Fusion Mini silicone soft packer.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Some tips:
The length of the phallus will come from the width of the sock, the girth will come from the length of the sock. You can adjust the length/girth ratio by rolling the phallus at a slight angle, so it spirals out - making it longer and thinner. You can daisy-chain multiple socks to get more fabric. Experiment with folding socks in different ways to achieve different rolls.
The details of this method are very malleable and depend on what socks you have to work with. I've done versions where each ball is it's own ankle sock stuffed into another sock that is the sack. Or where one sock is split in half to make two balls, then put inside a second sock to act as the sack.
Experiment a little and see what works for you. Learn how changing a factor effects the result so that you have maximum agency of your sock-packing creations. Favorite penis-making socks in the wash? No biggie, you know how to do this with any pair. Get science-y. Gender is fun.
The tighter you roll everything and the better you secure it, the more it will hold it's shape in your pants. I actually think it's a pro that socks are so squishy because this packer will conform to whatever is going on with my pants. But if you wear it long enough and move around enough, you might find that it just becomes a lump of sock in your pants. Good thing it's easy to re-shape :)
For euphoria purposes, it is also possible to make a "hard" sock packer that looks pretty good in underwear. But I won't provide a tutorial for that. Use the skills you learn from practice and design your own. Have fun with it.
I still use sock packers even though I have a nice silicone one because they are so light, discreet, and customizable. Perfect option for people who are still questioning, who are closeted, or otherwise just can't get/don't want a silicone packer. We all got socks.
I don't typically pack in public, but I will throw this pair of socks in my bag if I'm going on a trip. This way, I can make a packer quick to kill dysphoria if I need to, but there's no dick rolling around in my suitcase for other people to stumble on.
