Here's the second installment in TNET's Transition Series: the new Binding Safely & Effectively! This 36-pager forms a matched pair with Tucking Safely & Effectively, with both being educational zines about modifying one's silhouette. In this zine, you'll find:
- Descriptions of the relevant anatomy,
- Step-by-step instructions for how to actually bind,
- How to select an appropriate binder,
- What clothing works well over binders,
- "What-if" scenarios and how to address each one,
- Ways of keeping yourself safe,
- Assurance that no one needs to bind to be valid in their gender, and
- Clear, detailed diagrams and beautiful illustrations by Rainy Batroff!
Anyone can buy and read this zine, regardless of their gender, expression, trans/cis status, or any other gendered trait! This'd make a great gift to your transmasculine loved ones, and makes for a good resource for those who work closely with trans people and their bodies.

Bogus covers are false zine covers designed by TNET to help your zines be less noticeable, for the increased safety of those who require that sort of thing. They're designed to look like boring user manuals and overly-technical quick start guides. Want us to add one to this zine for you? Select "Yes please" from the drop-down menu above and we'll put a random one on there for you!
