I'm going to start saying if Carole reads this I feel I owe you an apology.
This is based on a conversation at our meting on Friday night, she always pulls my leg over my home made forms which are double layered water filled balloons, she made me an offer of some forms which she may be parting with, I made it clear I wasn't interested , so I hope on reflection I didn't offend her. She did make the valid point that I continually say that I wish to be seen and accepted as a woman, so proper forms are a natural progression . She did have a good point.
Thinking about this after there is far more going on in the background.
I have posted before about still using my homemade forms, they do everything I need them to do and I'm very happy with them, so why doesn't the idea of replica breasts appeal to me if I truly want to be seen more as a woman ? I know I have an issue over my wife finding out I actually have imitation breasts, it does sound odd taking into account all the other things I do when I dress . I see it from the point of view of transforming as naturally as possible from male to female , fake imitation breasts and lower padding isn't natural, my forms give me what I have naturally and just lift enough to give me a female figure, I'm not into excess, huge boobs and deep cleavage , it's not the type woman I wish to be, I'm a trim size 12 and totally happy with it.
If transition does happen and hormones give me breast tissue then I accept that because it would be natural along with any other changes. I'm happy with my figure so my concern isn't about it's presentation , to me the more important issue is what people see above neck level, facial features, makeup and hair/wig are the factors that really matter to me when going out, they are what people relate to close up . I choose not to change my voice , once you attempt it it's an act you have to keep up which may stop you being natural and interacting with people comfortably .
I know we keep coming up with confusing questions, it can be a very confusing subject, truly deciding what our CDing really means to us and which road we might travel down .
