#God I really want Gaga to just GO THE FUCK AWAY and stop appropriating other people’s experiences #YEAH LOOK AT YOU YOU’RE SO COOL BINDING AND DOING YOUR HAIR UP LIKE A GUY FOR A PHOTO SHOOT #But you kind of get to take the binder off after the shoot is done and continue being happy with your body #so GO FUCKING YOURSELF #Also FUCK YOU those underwear don’t even fit you THAT IS NOT COOL IT JUST LOOKS UNCOMFORTABLE #they do in fact make ‘men’s’ underwear that fit ‘women’s’ bodies so I don’t understand if you’re trying to make a point or if you’re just…

eta: that awkward moment when I Limit Break Tumblr’s tag box.

this this this

also, way to glamorize binding with ace bandages, which is really fucking bad for you and some people only do it because the alternate is psychologically worse

it really just looks like she’s wearing a diaper, not ~sexy men’s underwear~

I think the other thing that gets my goat is I can’t think of a single Person Who Binds in my sphere of existence who would ever take their shirt off to reveal their binder/ing-of-choice with a ‘sexy’ face on. Because most of the people I know who bind don’t want anyone to know they’re binding that’s kind of the whole point.

I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH GAGA ANYMORE EXCEPT TINY FISTS OF IMPOTENT RAGE 

I’ve pretty much never really liked Gaga but when this happened I wanted to slap her.

Really Gaga? Why you do this shit after claiming to be supportive of everyone?

 This doesn’t makes any sense, like… nothing. 1. why would you get mad at someone for wearing underwear that’s too big. 2. Why are you mad at someone for having a sexy face. jealous? 3. You guys are idiots, she is a man in this shoot. She is wearing that thing to hide her boobs, not to look skinnier. 4. What does this have to do with her supporting gay rights and telling people to love themselves? Seriously, think before you say something. And don’t judge people or things that they do if you have no idea what you’re talking about.

umm…I’m sorry but nobody meant that she had binded to look skinnier, I agree with everyone else, she claims to be an LGBT supporter (I included the T!) and this does not do many trans men justice, there are many young boys who will look to this sort of photo and think “OH that’s how I should bind” without knowing the physical damage that sort of binding can do. 

so, in response to the person who said “to think about what you say before you say it” you should think before you say and realise the implications of something like this on a vulnerable community. 

well that was my two cents

All valid points. But that being said, I still look at these images and want some of that!! Gaga makes a fucking hot guy!

What is the problem here? So no one can dress in drag anymore now? A binder can be ‘appropriated’ can it? There’s someone who gets to police this stuff is there? The transvestite police perhaps? Comments are sooooo problematic, sort your shit out Tumblr. 

You appear to have never have heard of trans* people.

Oh yeah that must be it.
