Binders Review

Given the interest in this topic, here’s the expanded blog post summarizing all my binding experiences, complete with pictures and giveaways! Just note that binding results are highly dependent not only on breast size but on body shape as well, so keep that in mind when you read this.

Being neutrois, or … Continue reading A Neutrois Introduction to Society
