A thing about trying to dress more modestly is now I don't have to worry about my binder being visible because they seemingly don't make men's shirts that don't plunge. But I don't have to stress about that anymore, B"H!!!!!!!!

#jumblr #jewish conversion #jew by choice #personal thoughts tag #i'm wearing a long sleeve undershirt and it's great #and i have a fun button up and i can unbutton the shirt without worry holy shit #i got a men's scrub shirt and the neck literally plunged well into my sternum. and it FITS. what is up with that 🤨#like i'm not sure exactly what the expectations are for men's modesty since apparently i only follow and learn from jewish women #but i've basically just done what makes sense and what's comfortable #because when i go to service i typically don't wear short sleeves (or if i do i wear my undershirt)#anyway i personally like modesty and it's important to me especially as a (trans) man #i have become very protective over my body and find that modesty expresses a desire of protectiveness #in the sense that you have to be deliberate in what you choose to share or not #obviously though i don't see modesty as a display of character. it's a display of personal choice and autonomy
