A Transsistah's Secret - Foundation Garments

If you're lamenting the fact that you don't as a transwoman have the perfect hourglass shape, I'm going to tell you something that you should have picked up if you were doing your observation and practice part of learning the ways of femininity.

Neither do many of our cis sisters.      

Some of our cis and trans sisters have the funds to get that hourglass shape via the plastic surgery route.   Some do it by relentless exercising and diet.   Some were blessed by genetics and the luck of the hormonal draw to get that shape with having to diet or exercise regularly.   And unfortunately some our trans and cis sisters have take the dangerous path of silicone pumping ed to get those curves.

There's also the pageant queen trick of using strategically placed duct tape as well, but it'll hurt coming off and also has the downside of pulling off some skin or residual body hair in the process.

The easiest and the old school way of creating those curves is by using shapewear or foundation garments such as bras, girdles, waist cinchers, corsets, control top hosiery and strategically placed padding.to create their hourglass shapes or take off inches in the middle.

They also have the added bonus of making whatever outfit you chose to wear for the day look good as well.
