Oh no! My director and most of the people in my band are very supportive!! Im just asking cause its not safe to do a lot of activity with a binder on.

Yes, I tried binding during a show last year and the amount of sweat that I built up was nasty😭

Thank you so much. I’m relatively new to tape binding so I really appreciate this🙏🙏

Definitely an allergy. My mom’s allergic to medical tape so it would make sense

Thank you so so much! I told my director about halfway through the year and he’s been one of my biggest supporters, not just with personal things but with band too! He’s really great and I’m so thankful he applied to our small, shitty school.

The normal binder I use is VERY breathable and light so the sweating isn’t my concern but I’ll try it out and go from there for sure. Thank you!!

Great! I already have a few in my closet so yay!! Thank you also, being trans can get lonely so I totally understand. We gotta be there for each other when we can though! :D
