Being shirtless constantly

Advice Needed

So i have pretty much only been taping my chest for the past year. I hate binders, and i hate wearing a shirt (starting t has only made these hatred worse, im too warm all the time). But i have a hard time wrapping my head around the thought of i'm not fully shirtless, and that its similar to wearing a binder. This is mainly only relevant because i live with a roommate and would love to be able to walk around shirtless when taping, but my own brain stops me from even being able to ask them if they are comfortable with it.

Does anyone else feel the same way or have any advice on how to convince my brain? It really does help my dysphoria to be shirtless so i want to be able to be fully comfortable
