Trans People Aren't All Thin

A place where plus size trans people can swap clothes. Finding clothes when you are a large size is hard and doing it when you're trans is even harder

★★★ Binder Giveaway ★★★

So for a while I’ve had in my draws a binder that is a size too big for me, I’ve decided that I want it to go to someone else who can’t get a binder by their own means for whatever reason it may be.

The binder is the underworks 997 in a 4xl and it’s white. It’s only been worn about twice, once to try it on and once for about 3 hours, obviously it will be clean when I send it to you. If you don’t know what size you would be you can look up your measurements on the underworks web page.

★★★★★ Rules are ★★★★★

★  You must be following me and @mindthatashtrayy (since he bought me this binder), we will follow back

★  Only reblogs count for an entry, likes just for bookmarking

★  Trans (ftm) guys and people who don’t fit within the gender binary ONLY

I will use a random selection website to make sure the winner is picked fairly.

I will pay for worldwide postage.

Please spread the word to anyone you know who might be in need of this, I really, really want to be able to help someone.

I will pick a winner in a month from today, so 19 June 2016, if that person doesn’t get back to me within 24 hours I will pick another winner.

If you could reblog this, even if the binder isn’t for you (maybe you could write in the tags it’s not for you?? idk how this really works), to get the word around that would be fab, tag your amazing plus size friends, I just want to give as many people as possible this opportunity.

Hey guys, just wanted to share a new group on Facebook that we started (130+ members curently). It’s a group for bigger, chubby, cubs, bears, fat, fluffy, or however you personally identify your body. It is simply named “FAT FTM” both for easy search ability and to embrace a a word we sometimes get scared by. This is a CLOSED group (your friends can’t see what you post, and it isn’t listed on your profile). It is a body POSITIVITY group that is full of guys of varying ages and body types some of which are happy where they are, some who have lost significant weight, and some who are planning on losing weight. All transguys are invited. We may be less represented in the community, but do not let that discourage you; you are amazing just the way you are!

Quick question before I go wild submitting - is there a limit to the number of items I can submit at once?

I’d request a soft limit of five items for post, but there’s no limit to how many submissions you can make.

I fully plan on submitting pictures of my old cloths, but I was wondering if bras would be ok? I have one that is too small that my mom got me but its never been worn other than to try on.

Bras are fine as long as they are not used.

Does this blog only allow trade, or can I photograph and submit things to offer without needing or wanting anything in return? I just want to donate to trans*folk in need, and am not sure if this is the place for it.

Yes you can definitely donate without requesting other clothes in return!

Although, I would discourage using trans*folks. The asterisk has fallen out of favor and those should be two words (trans folks).

Hi !!! I've got 22/24 feminine clothes I'd gladly give to fat trans ladies but I live in France, do you think I can participate ?

Sorry for the time it took to get to your message.

While I definitely wouldn’t discourage you from submitting, I would just ask that when submitting you also include the us size equivalent.

[plussizetransswap]

Is it okay to follow if you're not trans? I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable but I have some clothes that I would be willing to pass on to people who need them.

feel free to follow, reblog and submit even if you aren’t trans. i only ask that cisgender people do not request items off of the blog

[plussizetransswap]

would you mind using a larger font? your page is very difficult to read

Yes definitely. I’m going to completely revamp the theme to be more accessible in the near future

[plussizetransswap]

I wear a size XL-1X and 16-18. Can I still submit stuff? I never see anything in my size in other clothing swaps...

Yes feel free! 

The lack of larger sizes in other swaps is definitely what inspired me to make this blog.

[plussizetransswap]

Is this only for trans feminine people? And are sizes based on "men's" or "women's" sizes? (While the distinctions can be shitty, it definitely can affect sizing)

This blog is not only for trans feminine people, however most of the items up right now are donations from me and reflect the fact that i’m dfab

whether clothing is consider a “woman’s fit” or a “man’s fit” is indicated in the tags. for example, #w 20 would indicate a women’s cut in size 20

Hi I'm not trans but I have a lot of plus size clothes that I don't want anymore- do you have any resources I can donate to so trans folks can access them?

If you submit them here we’ll do our best to get them to good homes.

If you mean a physical location, I’d need to know in what area you were looking to donate, and even then I can’t make guarantees.

[plussizetransswap]

Do you take clothing donations? I'm a 6ft size 14-16 cis woman and I have some spare (clean and good quality!) stuff.

if you are still looking to donate, yes we do!

[plussizetransswap]

I have some plus sized clothes I'd love to go to someone who wants them, but I wanted to run it by you before I submitted, because I'm cis and don't want to be all up in a space meant for trans folks without asking first. (I don't want to take anything from here, I just want to offer up stuff I'm not using anymore)

i’ll always invite cis people to donate here, i just ask that they don’t request clothes

[plussizetransswap]

Why dose this have to be about trans people? Please don't take this the wrong way but why can't it just be plus size people in general

when you are plus size, it is difficult to find clothing that’s your size and is affordable. if you are trans and plus size you have to deal with that and barriers to accessing clothes that reflect your gender.

basically i made this blog trans specific because trans people need it more

that being said, if you want a blog for plus size people in general feel free to make one. i’d definitely support someone doing that, and promo the blog here
