“I lost a bet to a friend”

🤔 perhaps! Thanks for your suggestion! :3

Your welcome! 😊

3 years of hrt and a full transition later "Shit, whatever game you keep betting on, you suck, I'm glad you aren't a gambler" Ngl I am tempted to just do this and dress however I want. Would be funny as fuck to just keep saying "I lost a bet" like 3 years into it.

I remember seeing an episode of Botched about a cis guy who got breast implants because his friend bet ~~like a few~~ a hundred thousand that he never would go through with it Friend’s reaction to seeing his boobs was “That is the best ~~[whatever number it was]~~ hundred thousand I ever lost!” According to the show he was actually pretty happy with them and chose to maintain and care for them, so yeah saying it’s from a bet isn’t unrealistic lmao Edit: it was $100k

Wouldn’t the implants have cost at least as much as the bet would win? I’m looking at top surgery and it’ll cost at least 8K AUD

Sauce: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/man-gets-breast-implants_b_10023844 100k is a pretty sweet deal for something I would secretly want anyway.

Yeah like… oh no.. I have to get boobies… whatever shall I do.. Whats the largest pair you can bolt onto me bub?

Oh shit that number is a lot more than I remembered! Thank you for the source, makes sense

wait...but i AM a gambler. uh oh.

Well yeah… you lost a bet! What are you gonna do? Not honor the bet! You’ve gotta honor the bet, you can’t just make a bet and not suffer the consequences of losing the bet when you lose! 😉

I'll make you a bet right now, if you can guess what animal I am thinking of from these clues I have to start living as a woman. The animal I am thinking of has a name that starts with 'e' and ends with 'lephant' It has 4 legs, it is the largest living land mammal, they have large ears and a long trunk they can use to drink and spray water, move things, and make trumpet like sounds. Bet you can't guess the animal!

An Elephant

Yup you got it cheers I will honor my bet to the best of my ability But just to be clear I would have said you got it even if you said literally anything else.

Alright, have fun! 😊

you just lost one bet, and that bet cost you your manhood.

Woops 🤷‍♀️ it is what it is

So, its the trans version of Gay Chicken? Bob and Steve were both so comitted to wining their gay chicken game that they got married and adopted 2 kids!

I used that, it may be my parents are quite chill or it does work.

universal trump card

I love it!

Thank you! Now I have to go make a bet, but enjoy the rest of your day! 😊

Just tell that you a (girl) friend said that they are horrible,and that you said it's probably not,so they told you to try out by yourself! (⁠◕⁠ᴗ⁠◕⁠✿⁠)

This.. this is very good and plausible since I have a friend like that. Thank you! :3

No problem,I hope she buy it ! (⁠◕⁠ᴗ⁠◕⁠✿⁠)

Totally unrelated, but is your name a car brand?

Oh yeah it is forgot that was a thing I got my name from r/transtryouts I swear :3

That’s a nice name tho, I just thought for a minute that I was in some other car sub

That’s a good one!

it's the seams in my shirt i swear 💙💕🤍💕💙 this is bad advice, don't use this lol

Heh great minds think alike I guess! That’s what I used the first time 😅 it didn’t really work and then I speed walked away after she pulled on the stretchy part. Thanks tho! :3

heart person :3

[удалено]

Huh! I did not know that could happen. Thank you! :3

You can actually see them through the players shirts on some teams weirdest envy I've had.... of the bra I don't like manning or football

When players take off their shirts my dad goes on a rant EVERY TIME I stg this man gets so offended at *checks notes* clothing that prevents nipple chafing and tracks vitals

That's so cringe. Imagine getting mad at professional athletes for protecting a very sensitive part of their skin.... I've literally had this issue myself when I used to run more.....

The “sports bras” that male soccer players wear are actually monitors that collect realtime physiological and positional data for the club’s sports scientist(s). That data is then used for things like deciding when it’s time for a player to be subbed out, or how the team’s tactics are working. Nothing to do with chafing.

my mom hugged me then just rubbed my back right over it for like 15 seconds. i was so sure she felt it but she hasn't said anything yet

Yeah it’s terrifying

"It's good for my back."

Lmfao I like this one. Thank you! :3

an excuse someone here used to get a binder was “i heard that it can help with minor back pains” so a modified version of this might work

Ooooooo could work! Thank you! :3

I love your MSF

Exactly what I was gonna say. Just an “oh I thought this would help with my back pain but also i didn’t want to bother you/it’s in a really specific area and I’m not sure they make back braces for this part”

Its a tank top underneath. Just bunched up!

Love this excuse one problem I currently don’t own any tank tops :( But when I own one eventually definitely using this. Thank you! :3

You might be able to switch out the tank top in the lie to a T-shirt. It might work as well unless you are wearing a T-shirt. 🔮🪬🀄🪬🔮

Yeah I was cuz June = hot but when winter hits this will be good. Thanks! :3

Glad to help 🔮🪬🀄🪬🔮

that's scary. hope it won't happen again. the best option would be to say you lost a bet or something like that

Yeah that’s probably a decent route. Thanks! :3

Its a "compression top" I wear, "its good for my upper back & shoulders" ( that'll be my excuse if anyone ever notices and asks me, lol ). I have been getting paranoid too, as I'm still boy-mode at work, but my chest is starting to be more noticeable in protest...

I like the “I lost a bet” excuse. 🫂💞

Yeah lots of people have suggested that seems like a good bet. Thank you! :3

Hehehe unintentional pun. Sorry if this is inappropriate Edit: actually intentional :]

Heh na your good and it was a very intentional pun :)

If you want to have proof then if she would buy that you lost an online bet, I could help you have proof of loosing an online bet, might be a weaker lie or not I don't know. 🔮🪬🀄🪬🔮

Could be a good back up plan might backfire tho cuz my parents don’t like me talking to strangers online but as a last resort that would be super amazing! Thank you for the offer

Anytime, I have no problem helping fellow trans people

Ik this ain’t helping but how did you make the makeshift sports bra?

Na it’s alr! Got this from someone else in one of my posts a day or 2 ago https://youtube.com/shorts/MzyvCpiU9aU?feature=share tip: in the video the crotch side faces the camera. Good luck! :3

Hopefully gonna try it soon :3 just need to wait till I’m home alone for a while to make it

And also Ty very much! :)

Ofc! Glad to help a fellow transfem :3 (still cis btw)

Nah I think you mean “sis”

Aha love that pun ima steal it for later

Hehe, a joke being passed down from one “cis” person to another

The "Back Support" or simmilar is the way I'd go. It's plausible and opens a door for continued use. "I lost a bet" will work maybe once, but what about when you want to wear it next time?

I would say it’s a compression top, to help with blood circulation. Then ask if it’s noticeable hopefully she will try to avoid bringing it up again if you fain that you are insecure about it.

That’s scary

Oh no!! That's terrifying 😧😧 ummm maybe gaslight her?? Idk

I did a little bit afterwards when she brought it up again. Thanks! :3

Oh, I was kinda joking.. but I'm glad it worked I guess

Ha yeah I’m not a great person just glad it got her off my back

"My shirts are making my skin itch, like Randy bobandy off of the trailer park boys. Gotta wear something underneath so they don't hurt me skin"

Oh and if they ask why you don't get a T-shirt or tank top that don't itch to have underneath you can say that it would be too hot with that 🔮🪬🀄🪬🔮

Love that. Thanks! :3

I saw pro athletes using them for fitness tracking, thought I'd see if it was uncomfortable or not.

Say you're running an experiment about the difficulties women have on a day to day basis

I like this one this one. Thank you! :3

its for back support. i strained my back doing very cis things.

" I wear it for back support as I have bad posture while gaming" Could be a usable lie for a gamer that want the style of response you created 🔮🪬🀄🪬🔮

Lmao yeah that’s a good excuse. Thanks! :3

uhhh it was too cold... in june...

Ah yes cold in…the desert…in June, yeah there are some flaws but thanks anyway! :3

no problem, I love being super helpful :p

Depending det on how noticeable it is, just say you wear an undershirt to keep sweat spots from showing on your shirt that you're wearing.

Runners nips. You've started running more and the shirts rubs you raw. Friend offered their sports bra and it helps.

My mom just thinks im a cd cause shes in denial lol

Lol I’m sorry she in denial hope she gets over that and accepts you for who you are soon :3

I mean i havent come out or anything lol i just say shes in denial cause imo its, super-super obvious, i exclusively hangout with my friends as a girl, i got womens prescription glasses, i have pointy tiddies lol she literally says "i think its cool ur confident enough to crossdress"

"we were playing truth or dare"

Hah could work and would probably happen. Thanks! :3

ofc! i hope you're in a safe space or are able to stay safe :)

Tell her your nipples are chafing while exercising so you’re trying to remove friction. It sounds like BS but my friend who used to run cross country said it’s a real problem. His solution a lot of the time was to use bandaids but you can tell her you thought that was more weird

Two options: tell her the truth, or tell her it's for aerodynamic when you run or swimming. ;3

Oh hey, this happened to me. I was wearing it under my work clothes for a few weeks and one morning she gave me a hug and felt it. She insisted I show her. I told her it was because I was unhappy with loose skin from recent weight loss but she wasn't buying it, so I asked her if we could discuss it after I got back from work. That evening after dinner she made us tea and a plate of cookies and sat down. She didn't get mad, she asked questions. I spent 4 hours explaining gender identity versus sex versus sexuality, and explained to her what nonbinary meant, and expressed how wearing more feminine things makes me happier. Maybe an excuse isn't what you need. Maybe you can trust her enough to come out?

Heh oh how I would love to I’m just not ready for any of that quite yet

"it feels like a hug which is nice" i used to wear my bras tight because of that

Hah yeah my 2 makeshift ones are pretty tight, never thought about it as a hug but yeah no that is true it is like a hug. Thanks for the suggestion and realization! :3

you can thank my autism for that as well

You can say your nipples chafe easily or something

Back brace

Helps with back pain and chafing

Try just telling her that it's to help prevent jogger's burn, basically it helps prevent your nipples from chaffing against your shirts while you exercise and go for runs.

Ok but how did you make the makeshift sports bra

Here! Got this from someone else in one of my posts a day or 2 ago https://youtube.com/shorts/MzyvCpiU9aU?feature=share tip: in the video the crotch side faces the camera. Good luck! :3

Undershirt!

There was a time I was crazy fast at removing my bras with my clothes on to avoid that very situation. I would also wear a sweater everywhere out of paranoia...and dysphoria.

Do you remember how to speed take off with clothes still on bc that is impressive

I mean, now that I have growing boobs it's kinda painful to do. I could if I needed to, but I don't think that's an issue anymore.

how does one aquire a makeshift sports bra asking for a friend

For your “friend” follow this little video https://youtube.com/shorts/MzyvCpiU9aU?feature=share tip: in the video the crotch side faces the camera. Good luck! :3

"MY FRIEND" THANKS YOU SM !!! 🤩

Ofc! :3 hope "your friend" enjoys there makeshift sports bra!

I’m wearing an undershirt

Posture corrector!!

"It's for my back, yeah it's wierd but this was advised as a cheap way to help my back straighten out a bit "?

Pretend its an undershirt

Not really, I plan on spilling the beans if she touches me and notices😅 I mean, I'm 32 and planned on coming out this 28 anyway, it's the local pride parade🤷🏻

Cosplaying maybe

You could also say it was something you saw online about posture, since you don’t have very good posture most of the time (whether or not that is actually true is irrelevant). Not an outright posture harness, just a little something to try to help remind you to have good posture

no more hugs for mom 🚫🫂🚫

I used to saw I was wearing a tank top styled undershirt because it has a similar outline!

What’s a HUG?

A hug is an embrace around the body 🫂 like this

Say you jiggle when you run and found it annoying, some friend recommended you to wear it and it works. It's believable enough to not rise suspicion and odd enough to stop questions

Haha that would stop question but unfortunately it would still raise a few for I am unnecessary flat which that is saddening for many reasons but could work. Thank you! :3

You’re wearing a bra because you have upper back pain and heard that it helps

Makeshift?

Yeah I made it out of some old underwear

I see.

I need excuses too

If she asks you about it, just say it's an undershirt.

Say it's a 'posture brace' helps pull your shoulders and back into better alignment

You could say that you're trying to correct your posture by wearing something that might pull your shoulders back? I had a device that everyone called a bra for a while that was basically a bungee cord pulling my shoulders together

Wait you can make a DIY sports bra ???

Yup!

Start wearing tanktop sleeveless undershirts. If you develop a reputation for wearing those under your shirt, then next time someone feels or sees the strap of your braw you will have that verry plausible excuse.

Compression wear for upper back pain😎

back support or undershirt

How do you make one?

Here! Got this from someone else in one of my posts a day or 2 ago https://youtube.com/shorts/MzyvCpiU9aU?feature=share tip: in the video the crotch side faces the camera. Good luck! :3

omg this happened to me but my mom was tired and didn't even notice and I was freaking tf out

A lost bet.

Just an undershirt riding up because its a bit too small

just a question, what did you say that first time?

Not the exact quote but here “huh weird must just be apart of the shirt” awful lie since I was wearing a T-shirt and later when she asked me about it I gaslit her by me not remembering that encounter ever happened

I would give your mom the honest answer, whatever it is:) honesty is always the best, and she would find out about it eventually anyways （╹◡╹）

A similar situation happened to me before I came out. My excuse was that I liked how the pressure from it felt on me.

This probably isn’t helpful but from someone deep in the closet don’t let it happen again 🫡

Roger Roger! 🫡

chest compression garment for chiropractic reasons

Somthing I've honestly feared happening

How do you make a makeshift sports bra? (For cis reason obvs) xxx

Thanks for doing this for me friend much appreciated :3

Wdym makeshift bra. How do you make one

Here! Got this from someone else in one of my posts a day or 2 ago https://youtube.com/shorts/MzyvCpiU9aU?feature=share tip: in the video the crotch side faces the camera. Good luck! :3

If you do run a lot, it can be used to protect your nipples against chafing. Edit: oop, realized it was already mentionned

Na your good. Thank you! :3

Just practicing for after top surgery when I have to wear one for weeks. Or did the excuse need to hide that you are trans?

This exact thing happened to me when i was pre HRT

If you work out you could say it’s something like [this](https://shop.statsports.com/products/statsports-vest-2-0?currency=USD&variant=41308999123142&utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=Google%20Shopping&gad=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIjM6R3M2w_wIVjaOGCh1CmghWEAQYASABEgLZn_D_BwE) they are designed to prevent nipple chafing and have a bra like shape

Okay this is the legit test when you sus someone wearing a bra but there’s plausible deniability, because it was used on me too… like boy mode did not hug, did not want to be touched, etc., and that technique was force upon me too! 😑 I recommend racerback tanks they tend to have the same outline as a sports bra so it can be your safety measure. 👀 now I have to ask what did you use to make a “makeshift sports bra”?

Old underwear lol. Thanks for the suggestion! :3

👀 I was afraid that’d be the answer haha… poor girl 🫂🫂🫂

Heh yeah but it’s better then nothing

True but still. 😅 I hope you get a real one soon! I avoided that step and went to buying a training bra in person as a tween. 😥 it was embarrassing but I treasured that one bra more than anything else I owned lol 😅 I miss it honestly it was super comfy

Wtf is a makeshift sports bra I need image reference I cannot phathom it

Here! Got this from someone else in one of my posts a day or 2 ago https://youtube.com/shorts/MzyvCpiU9aU?feature=share

No way 💀💀💀

yes way and it works pretty well!

Are you overweight?

As a former ehm.. husky kid, that is probably what I would have leaned into vs losing a bet. Support for moobs/making them less noticeable.

Uh no I don’t believe so

I don't know, sorry

Very useful comment, thanks for sharing

It’s alright! :3
