Do you ? ( Max excluded ) I have never had to need to bind my boobs since I am being practically flat , an uncle said I was a carpenter's dream being flat as a board and easy to nail .Although he certainly tried he never got to put his nail in me ! Have noticed especially since I started hanging around with bull dykes that it is not all that uncommon . For butch's the motivation is obvious , to look non binary or TBH more masculine . The butch that turned me from only other femmes named Barb wore one . So does my present gf Tarja . At the end of the all womyn orgy we were in noticed several of the lascivious ladies pulling them down .Our friend with benefits Perla who has bigger breasts then most Filipina's goes femme at work including wearing a bra but in off hours when she goes into butch mode and including being wrapped up . OK with moi , do what you want . Like dating butches dealing with binders has been a new thing , part of my sexual evolution I thought I'd taken off ( sometimes even ripped off ) about every item of female clothing there is but have come to add binders along with sports bra's and altered cami's . What next ?

I've never done it. I imagine doing it long term could have some health risks? Is the end goal for these people to eventually get some surgery to reduce or remove their breasts?

I have heard there are health risks. Surgery wud be a good idea for women who think they are too big . My experience to date has been with lesbians who see binding as a way to express their identity.

Admittedly I didn't know much about this practice. From Googling I see flappers in the 20s also used to do it too.
Do these women you see do it want to transition to be men or is it they just think it looks better for them?

For me is a no brainer. I like to see women the shape they really are with the minimum of distortion, support, constraint... whatever! If you've got small boobs, great, I love them. If you appear to have small ones and then huge compressed ones pop out, that's a real turn off. I wonder if the partners of the butch girls feel the same?

I agree with Max, best to be real .
I read how this is also done by mostly teen agers going thru a gender identity crisis .A women I used to work with talked about a cousin who wanted to be treated as a guy , changed her name from Maya to Frank and binded her breasts .
Even if I had the desire to do so wudn't ,very uncomfortable here with the hot & humid weather.

I think it's not good going to drastic lengths to change your appearance, whether that is trying to make your boobs bigger or smaller or make yourself super thin or whatever. It's not good. I think fashion and the media should definitely focus on diversity and that people should be happy to be them instead of giving us looks to aspire to.
It is of course different if you feel you were born the wrong gender, in that case everything should be done to support your transition.

I wonder how many you'll find who actually do it? 😉

I never heard of this practice at all. Maybe I'm too innocent about these things.

I think there is a small but definitely out there sub culture of women who bind .Teens going thru puberty, women who think they are too big , women including dykes who aren't comfortable with parts of their female anatomy etc
I had only known a few women who bind before I started going around with a butch. At first it was something exciting for me to discover. Although I'd never tell my gf now don't see the point for adult women , too symbolic for me .

Does your girlfriend bind?

Yes , part of her daily routine. Usually a wrap around band , colors mainly white or black . More proof we all have our own ideas about what's stylish. Now am wondering if she is posting at a butch forum about how strange it is her femme lesbisch wears dresses & stockings

It might be fun to do for a flapper themed evening
