Clothing

That's awesome! Free the girls!

Oh dear.. i hope nobody at a consignee saw me ripping off my bra from under my shirt in extreme frustration because I was trying to back into a spot and drop a trailer, but the underwire had poked through and was stabbing me in the armpit. I couldn't even think about the backing task at hand because I was so uncomfortable lol. Ripped it off from underneath my top, tossed it aside and took care of my backing. Come to think of it.. i was teaming with my man at the time and he was speechless, but was a real sweetheart when he realized the underwire had slipped out and actually cut my underarm and was bleeding.

I'm on the busty side too and I'll be honest. . I wear them (bra) sometimes. If going without i kinda disguise that fact by wearing a sweatshirt/hoodie. Sports bras are more comfy than an underwire job any day. I wear what the clothing dictates.. i have some tops where a good bra is a must and others i can get away without one completely or a tank top or camisole underneath looks presentable.

A mirror and a critical eye is your friend and ALWAYS look clean and professional at every shipper and receiver. Hahaha.

One of the other things that I'm having to prepare myself for/to cope with is the potential of constant misgendering when I get there.

As I said at the beginning of this thread, I'm genderqweer (let's see if THAT triggers the filters dang it all), and I use they/them pronouns. I tend to wear a mix of men's and women's clothing, but the biggest point being that since I have forgone wearing bras or other things, people tend to see my breasts and treat me as female.

I'm hoping that once I get out with a trainer (who, I will probably be requesting a female trainer from Swift— for my own safety), and then once I get out on my own, it'll be less, as only dealing with a few people.

I will say that despite knowing my legally assigned gender, my recruiter was wonderful and made every effort to use the correct pronouns and not reference gender.

Well, here goes!

I start Swift academy in Fontana tomorrow morning.
