transbrotherhood: Hello! It’s Sam again, and my senior capstone project is coming to a close.
Hello! It’s Sam again, and my senior capstone project is coming to a close. Last year I sent out a survey regarding chest binding practices, in order to better inform my design for a chest binder. I received so many great responses! It was so helpful to me in my process, and I couldn’t be more thankful for everyone who responded and shared the post.
As my project is coming to an end, I would like to ask for y’alls feedback again! Though my capstone class is over, I plan to continue with this project and develop my design further. I know it’s a bit difficult to give feedback on a binder without wearing it, but it would be invaluable to me to hear what y’all think about my design so far. I’m including a 2-question survey, just to get general feedback and any comments y’all might have. SURVEY HERE.
Some notes: my design solution is intended for transmasc and nb/genderqueer people who practice chest binding most days/everyday. Preliminary prototype testing has shown it can be worn for a variety of activities, including going to work/school, sitting for long periods of time, light exercise, etc. and can be worn under any style of garment. Further tests will include wearing while swimming, running, and more intensive exercise.
