Actress Bella Ramsey, who identifies as gender 'non-binary,' has revealed that she wore a chest binder to flatten her breasts during the shooting of her hit HBO series 'The Last of Us.'
“And they weren’t always deep: they could be funny and humorous, the whole spectrum. We were just very honest and open with each other.”
Chest binders are undergarments for women to flatten their breasts in order to minimize their outward appearance. The items are frequently used by female-to-male transgenders who want to look more masculine. But chest binders can also cause negative health consequences, including the obstruction of circulation as well as chest and back pain.
“Being gendered isn’t something that I particularly like,” Ramsey said. “But in terms of pronouns, I really couldn’t care less.”Times
