Medically unnecessary garment.
Having any sort of strong compression on your chest, especially with the motivation of hiding your breasts (which will cause you to modify your posture even further) is going to change how you hold your back, neck, and shoulders, limit the range of motion in your arms, and modify how you hold your hips and walk to compensate for the upper body changes.I know trans men like to claim they run the Ironman and wrestle bears every day in their perfectly functional binder which also coincidentally makes them totally flat and they pass very well in case you were wondering but the trans health study that studied the negative health outcomes of binding found specifically that commercial binders were not only no safer than other methods used but were more likely to cause problems. This is likely because commercial binders are both more likely to be worn for longer periods and also because they can cause the most chest compression out of the most common methods of binding. On page 72 the researchers write:
“Commercial binders were the binding method most consistently associated with negative health outcomes, possibly because such binders have the potential to provide more compression than other binding methods. This finding is inconsistent with community perceptions that commercial binders represent the safest option”The study is called “Health impact of chest binding among transgender adults: a community-engaged, cross-sectional study”

Person:Oh no I cracked a rib while binding with my binder!
Person with a brain:Well you shouldn’t have been wearing the godamn thing in the first place.
Binding can, and often does cause breast tissue to break up and become lumpy, It changes the elasticity of the skin. The lumpiness makes it difficult to detect breast cancer lumps.

although he was physically born a female, he is mentally a male, and uses a binder to flatten his chest.
