FtM - Dudes Who Don't Bind (ft. Chase Ross) 

Wearing a binder is like a constant reminder that you dont' have a flat chest so it makes sense to feel less dysphoric without one on sometimes

I'm glad ty realizes he passes. I feel so many trans people don't think they pass even though they totally do

Love the video! I am a cis woman and have had breast reduction surgery. When I decided to do it, at my consultation, the surgeon made it clear that I needed to wait for a year or more and discuss the matter with my psyc. She said it was a major surgery that is going to impact my life and she needed me to be sure about it. I waited and never changed my mind. When I went to my primary doctor to get the referral, the nurses really gave me a hard time. One even said I should be glad I had a huge bustline because she wanted implants. I also got tons of crap from family and friends. And even now 15 years later, I'm questioned why I had the surgery. Simply: No one, I mean no one, looked at my face... there were constant jokes and references made to the boobadge and I was humiliated on a regular basis. Not a healthy psyche builder. I decided to accept my husbands marriage proposal because he knew what color my eyes are. I can totally understand why a person would need their body to align with who they are and would tell anyone who asked "should I?", a huge resounding yes. Be who you are and damn the torpedoes! You guys are a huge inspiration. ♡♡♡♡♡

Personally, I never even noticed he never had top surgery. A lot of muscular guys have bigger chests and that's just what I thought

Ty your chest just looks like a cis guy who works out.

I'm getting top surgery in 1 (one) month!!! 😭❤ People from the future, wish me luck :)

it's so nice seeing other trans guys that don't have heavy dysphoria oh my god

Chase trying to match Ty's muscle tone is so funny and cute

chase flirting with Ty is literally bringing the best smiles

Seeing two trans guys proudly with their shirts off makes me so fucking happy, I cant wait until I feel comfortable not binding

Ty I love the idea of not binding, but I have DDDs. Not happening.

I was wondering why his nipples were so shiney and then I saw the tape and now it makes sense. I thought he just had peircings

Thanks for making this video. I don't bind because of my health problems, it causes me too much pain, so even though it often stops me from passing because my chest is noticeable I still don't. I've had hate from fellow FTMs who tell me I'm a disgrace to the trans community for not binding. Which I know I'm not, but it still sucks that people can be so ignorant, so I'm happy to see this video :)

Dude seriously, my cisgender manboobs were way worse than that.

I'm a straight cis guy and I gotta say u both look more masculine than some natural born males.its really impressive and inspiring to those who are wanting the same for thier life .

about the scars....has your doctor ever told you about silicon strips? my car smashed and left me a ton of scars, I used the strips and it's reduced the scars (especially the darkness) of them. please don't get me wrong, I'm not saying scars are bad. The strips work and have been proven to reduce the scar and are harmless but plastic surgeons don't know why. Anyway, cheers guys

I noticed that I have more dysphoria when I wear a binder. Because if I don't bind (when I'm alone), I can somehow ignore my chest, but if I do, I can feel the binder around my chest, my ribs, my stomach, and it still doesn't bind perfectly, so it makes me very dysphoric. (But at the same time, there's no way I'll go out without a binder on... So I just don't leave the house most of the time.)

Dudes who were lucky enough to have a b cup chest T_T

As an asthmatic enby who physically can't wear a binder, thank you! This was super cool to see, and I'm happy you guys are comfortable talking about your experiences 😊

Can I just say thank you for being able to show your chest? I have been dealing with a lot of chest dysphoria recently and being able to see another trans guy comfortable with his pre-op chest has been healing in a way. so, thank you!

Ty, no need for top surgery aesthetically. Looking good.

This is the first time Im on this channel and I would have never guessed in a million years that Ty was born female.

That's So Suite Life of Hannah Montana I think you'll find it's called, check ur Disney privilege

Ty - “ thank you for watching” Me - “ thank you for living” ❤️

My boyfriend can't even get a flat chest while binding hes got double D's but I try to make him feel better by telling him he looks rlly good and I can't notice at all. Most people dont really pay attention to it though so it makes him feel better anyway wow your chest looks like you have pecks. if I just saw you out on the beach I wouldn't look twice because it just looks passable as a male muscle

Chase is like ALWAYS hiting on Ty!!! BEST YT FTM COUPLE! But Ty have a nice gf, so... Tyse will never happen. Wait a minut: Tyse? Chaler? Idk...

Trans guys are so unfortunate in America, like i live in the UK and if i want to get top surgery it'll be free cause we have the National Health Service, and in America they'll have to wait so long just to raise money and i feel so sorry for them :(

I love Chase's sassy older woman voice.

I'm ftm pre-everything, and now i'm starting to consider not to buy a binder. I'm literally an A, a really small A, and i just feel that if he's a B, maybe i shouldn't bind at all. But i just see my chest as huge for my specific body type... i don't know

Bro his chest ligit just looks like my bf and he's a cis guy, so like he should feel amazing I hope there both the happiest boyos ever!!! 😆♥️♥️

Ty, your an amazing man that is on here helping so many. I am a cis female and my husband is trans (ftm), everyday i watch him put on a binder and get ready for the world. I feel so helpless is the fact that i cant really do anything to help him, but i know that my support and love does that. Ty, you have shown me thing i didn't know and gave me a few hacks that i have passed on and has helps my hubby. I want to say thank you for telling your story an being so open, in a world full of hate and ignorance. philly luv!

You definitely don't need top surgery, Tyler :) but you do what makes you happy! You both look great! Stay blessed 😇

HE THICC

"You will see my Poseidon" killed me

Actually wait can you guys come to Seattle? Please?? Shirtless or not I wanna meet yall 😂💕

I love Chase's weird voice he does. He sounds like Linda Belcher hahah

I wear a binder and I still don't pass so I don't really have the option to not bind. Hopefully in the future I can start T and pass!

To be honest, if I were small or flat chested I wouldn't bind for shit. I'm a D cup so I'm screwed that and I don't think I'd be able to wear KT tape either.

i transitioned when i was 11 and i’m so happy to be getting top surgery when i’m 15 😁😁

"10 year old packer In me....on me." I'm crying 😂

I think the reason why Ty's chest looks very cis passing even without a binder is because he's very muscular so it looks like pecs and not breasts.

ARE YOU FEELING IT NOW, MR KRABS?

I broke one of my ribs from binding I only found out when I was air lifted to hospital because I broke my leg moutin biking lol

This really boosted my confidence. When I get back in shape I have high hopes to not bind.

I love how they both go into a “mom” voice, It’s so funny!

I thought 'bind' said 'blind' and I was really confused XD Idk, nice video though!

JEWISH MOTHER VOICE.... cracks me the F*CK UP

Can we just have more of ty flexing? Cuz omg be still my gay lil heart

Ty honestly looks like captain America, especially when he smiles

You guys are So Awesome, and you're happy being yourselves which is great .

You kinda look like a more manly Shia Labeouf

"what size bra do you wear?" "Yeah, I DONT!" 🤣

THAT'S SO SUITE LIFE OF HANNAH MONTANA YAAAAS they also did "Wizards On Deck with Hannah Montana"

wow its so special that you can create a chest like that with no surgery... i have so much respect for this as i'm a transgender / non binary person myself and want to do everything on my own as much as possible

I don't bind that often because it makes me feel more dysphoric and anxious by having hag tightness and acknowledging anything is there even though not binding makes it very obvious I can just;; not look down yknow

I'm always envious of people with like B-cup chests because binding must be so damn easy for you guys

"So, we don´t bind :)" Said the post top op dude and the flat chested muscle pecs guy.

how did you bind for 5 years holy fuck?! I've only been binding for like 11 months and it's death.

i binded for two years until i decided to lose a lot of weight in the hope that my chest would be smaller. i lost A Lot of weight in a rather unhealthy timeframe, but i had never been at a healthy weight in my life so it was a new experience for me. i never realised how huge the social difference was for Skinny people; it was like a new lease on life lol. so i spent a few years experimenting with my self-expression as a girl and identity as a lesbian. i had never had girl-friends(like the buddy kind), or spent much time outdoors or did sports, i never even felt attractive. but eventually when i got used to it i found that the feelings of transness were back, and if anything my chest was more prominent on a smaller frame. i also found out that i have a really feminine body shape that i never thought about before losing weight. but what actually affected me the most was men/people feeling more entitled to comment on my body than ever. i didn't expect family etc to keep talking about my body even years on. i didnt expect peers to comment on my chest. the acknowledgment made it worse. and eventually i realised that the feelings hadn't went away and that i had just buried them for a time, and refused to think about it. and that my worsening mental state was because of this despite me ignoring it. but i feel like i needed the time to grow as a person. and feel even more hopeful that i can one day be happy in a body and role that fits me :) gl trans fam!!!! ur all powerful

Here I am, a dumb enby, reading this guy's names as an abbreviation of 'thank you' throughout the comments

omg you guys have such great personalities!!!

Does ty look like Shia lebouf? Anyone?

This is really interesting and really FUNNY you guys are hilarious.

Thank you guys for the video! As a newer FTM guy this was super helpful!

This gives me LIFE. My chest is small as well but definitely wouldn’t mind being shirtless when my chest is a lot smaller. Thank you for this!!

Binding gave me dysphoria because I'm already flat chested so being able to feel the tightness of the binder just CONSTANTLY reminded that I'm binding and trans I started T and just stopped binding immediately because I just felt so much better in myself I really didn't care if it made other people uncomfortable

that is so amazing that Ty's chest looks pretty masc despite never getting top surgery!

I've been binding for about 2 years now (jesus) and the first binder I got was from one of those free binder programs, it was a used Velcro one and after a while the Velcro was so used that it wouldn't stay together and I had to use duct tape to tape it and then that stopped working too so I decided to put a sports bra over it, but that hurt and so I got another binder from a friend and wore that for a while until I got the one I have now that I won in a giveaway, turns out the binder I had been wearing was actually two sizes too small. It hurt like hell I had to take pain pills the ought the day to manage it. But luckily I have this binder, even though I still get dysphoria because I still see a bump and feel like I'm not as flat as I should be. But yeah that's my binding story so far. Who knows when I'm getting top surgery or even starting T. I turn 18 May 4th of next year. First things first, legal name change.

I have fallen in love with Ty Turner. He is working with what he was given and he is taking fate by the balls! Keep on pushing on babe!

I just discovered this video in October 2020, and I'm just staring at Ty's shoulders completely enviously, as I have lost a lot of muscle mass due to having the gyms closed down from quarantine. Damn - Ty, you have amazing shoulders!

"Are u feeling it now Mr krabs" I DIED😂😂😂

From a straight man. Ty your chest looks great. You are too masculine to look anything else. Don't get top surgery. You don't need it, any surgery is a risk. Safe the money and use it for something you need. My best friend is Trans and never had top surgery and he looks awesome. Working out is a must. His chest is just like yours and guys constantly ask him how to get their chest like his.

I find this so fascinating. Its interesting to know that there are men out there who don't bind. I think you both look amazing, And even though you haven't had the surgery yet you honestly cant really tell. I know some guys have pecs that look similar just because for them they have issues looking the fat there(we all have weird spots that are hard to lose the fat and tone the area). Props to both of you for finding that confidence and love in your true bodies!

I bind because the idea of not being flat and flattend makes me sick. I'm so glad i finally got my binder because I don't know how much longer I would survive without it. When I touch my chest in it I'm so happy

This actually is helping me a lot! I'm stopping binding because of marching band, and I'm actually starting to realize that I still pass really well, which is making me so much more confident!! Thank y'all for making this video

Must have been a small B cup. I don't bind either and while it's not as small as Ty's, I never got misgendered not binding which is strange but it's much more comfortable because it's way too humid in NYC.

I bind regularly, like every time I leave the house (unless I'm working out). I feel very panicked when I'm around people and not wearing my binder. Part of that is because (firstly I'm pre-t) I have a DD chest and its very OBVIOUS, and I have to be wearing something to feel comfortable. Even when I'm home alone or sleeping, I'm wearing a sports bra because its just uncomfortable otherwise. I plan on getting top surgery once I'm past 18 and I'm excited to not have the pain in my back, trouble breathing, feeling overly attached to my binder, having to not pass when I'm working out, etc after I have surgery.

I have an a-cup but because of school I don't have much time to be at the gym so I haven't been in months and I'm also not on T so I don't think I could ever look like that... But I still sometimes have days where I only wear a t-shirt and a sweater because my chest hurts but I generally don't really pass and it sucks

I havnt had top surgery and dont bind because it feels uncomfortable and makes it more known to myself that my chest is there. Love that this video is out!

It’s cool re watching this video years later. It’s been almost two years since I came out the closet and started living my truths as a trans man. I’m having top surgery in three weeks on the 26th of October. I bought a binder last year but being chest heavy it didn’t really do anything to truly conceal. My chest did go down by losing weight and working out more but yeah I just stuck to wearing sports bras until I get top surgery. I’m beyond excited for my top surgery! I know personally for my mental health and dysphoria is highly on my chest. I know I’ll feel better and finally look like what I see In my head. I’m having top surgery at 28 years old. It’s been a very long time coming and I’m ready. It’s nice seeing this video again knowing freedom is weeks away for me. I am so thankful and blessed (privileged) to finally be able to have this procedure done. 🙏🏽✊🏽

I know this is an odd question, but it just randomly poped in my mind. Can someone who have had top surgery get breast cancer? I guess no because there's no breast tissue (or whatever it's called- English is not my native language) , but since I have no idea how breast cancer "works" I don't know this either. Sorry for a weird question.

In germany you can't get top surgery before t as far as I know and AAAAAH why I want top surgery way more

Tye you don't need top surgery man.you look like a gorgeously handsome bodybuilder..REALLY. I am an FTM and if I saw you on a beach or at a pool topless my t dar would break LOL

I'm really glad I watched this video, before watching it I NEVER considered not binding, even though I have a pretty small chest to begin with. I completely relate to having more dysphoria while binding than not, the uncomfortableness of the binder just reminded me that something was there. Hearing that you went from a b-cup to that, is absolutely amazing and gives me lot of hope...thank you😊

Omgosh! you two are just hysterical!! I just laughed so much on how you two play off one another. I'm looking forward to see more videos of you two! XDD

Ty you don't need top surgery you look amazing 😍

You boys are so cool and funny! xx

I suck at binding, lol. I freak out when I don't bind but when I do it doesn't work. I need to get a real binder instead of just some sports bras

im researching top surgery and all that and one of my biggest hang ups is that i wouldn’t want to be fully flat because men rarely are. definitely chest goals

This is so validating. I’m not muscular by any means but I have a small chest. 34a last time I checked,even after having a baby. I don’t bind. I don’t feel like I need to. Most of the time you can’t even tell that there’s anything there. Definitely felt like I was the only one.

OK so this is weird but I wonder if anyone else feels like this. I'm transgender post everything, only my gf knows. I hate my body and have always wanted to be in a male body my whole life. But, as of now, pre T, I can't bring myself to cut my hair, or dress completely manly (i am what people would perceive a 'tomboy') but I do dress slightly fem rarely. I don't want people to see me trying to look like a guy and just think I'm a butch lesbian or whatever. i want to transition so hard but knowing i have to look like, to the public, a girl trying to look like a boy, before i go on T scares me, if that makes sense.I only dress that way around my girlfriend, who treats me like the guy i really am. I just want to look cis. Almost like I want to go on T, and start dressing appropriately when my body starts looking how I want it. I'm sorry if this offended anyone it's just how i feel, (I have nothing against butch women, or trans people pre hormones, obviously) Does anyone else feel like this or am I just being weird.

Chase, you look at ty like you're deeply in love with him 😂😂

Ty, your chest looks GREAT as it is!!! Personally I'd keep the natural look and sensation!

This video is old but it comforts me so much. I had to stop wearing a binder because it started to effect my ribs and I didn't want to hurt myself permanently. This video is so accepting from any sides and it made me cry because I did feel alone. Thank you so much

Ty is a great example of a confident man.

I have an E chest and severe chest and social dysphoria so like not binding/not getting too surgery aren't an option for me. I literally can't leave the house without my binder at this point. Hopefully I can save up enough money and get too surgery by the time I'm 20.. (I'm 15 atm)

decided to watch this in school. I'm gay. this was a mistake

The muscle adds so much to making the shape more masculine.

So proud that you both express yourself so freely. This is the way it should be

You guys are so funny- you should make more of these, hysterical !!!
