An idea that at first feels odd but that then becomes a habit. Some non-binary and transgender individuals tend to bind their breasts with medical tape to make their chests seem flat when feeling discomfort or dysphoria. This action known as "binding" brings a feeling of joy and relief that is hard to put into words. Searching for acceptance in your own skin can perhaps feel like insecurity about having to live with this routine, but I rather see it as the acceptance of the true self you should embrace.
