User:Haabet/Tightlacing rewrite

This page was created because of the difficulties with the Tightlacing page. I wanted to rewrite that page; hopefully it will be more organized and agreeable to everyone. Feel free to work on this page, and leave feedback in the talk section.


A rewrite of this page has been proposed.


Tightlacing (also called corset training and waist training) is the practice of wearing a tightly-laced corset to achieve extreme body modifications to the figure and posture. Those who practice tightlacing are called tightlacers. And the particular corsets are called training corset.

Tightlacing by Broad chest

How can a tightlacer survive the intensity body modification?!

The answer: When a woman is pregnant, the belly fill the body, and all entrails have escape into the chest. And the chest expand by the pressure from the big belly. If a Tightlacing is healthy, it is close to the natural pregnancy. But A tight lace by shoulder blades will press the ribs down, so a corset Tightlacing by Broad chest is with difficulty to make.

Tightlacing by Broad chest have two type. By shoulders or by hip.

It is very easy to make a corset, which compress the chest.

Because the chest is a conical and compressed, the entrails been pressed down, and they are not construct to a press down.
