Hey!

So I have been doing this since I was like 14 and I love the feeling of not having a penis and all the men I have been with love when I do this. However, I am here to ask what kind of tape does everyone use to avoid pain when removing it?

Thanks!

Tape should only be used for very short periods of time when taping is warranted. Medical tape is the only tape designed specifically for skin. I don't use tape myself, nor have I ever needed to use it.

Try working on tucking without tape.

Love.

I need to know where I can find some tape, I used really tight panties but they were so comfortable

Hi Lelia,

Go ahead and introduce yourself in the Introductions Forum. Let everyone have a chance to say hello to you.

Love.

also brenda i have found that if a girl were good at sewing you can tailor some clothes to erase a slight bulge and make it flat, plus some skirts and dresses can aleviate the need for a tight tape or tuck.

I've never tucked...don't really see why I should. Also, I do pee standing, even now that I use the ladies' (I am NOT unbuckling my belt and undoing my jeans just for that!), so I like having easy access.

i would say that if it gets uncomfortable then be cautious and give the testicles a rest. not everybody body is the same so what one girl can achieve easily may take you some getting used to. listen to your body it will let you know. i find it easy to tuck now but still they can ache after a day tucked and that can be annoying and uncomfortable. it does also depend on the size of your testicles as well as like has been said some on hrt have a lot smaller bits than some so they find it a lot easier to tuck.

A couple times the "tuck" gradually came loose while running on a treadmill, and there is nothing I can do about it. :lol: After being on HRT for awhile, tucking is very easy. I wear two panties just to be on the safe side. Thongs are definitely out of the question.

I too went to THE BREAST FORM STORE and purchased 4 gaffs. 2 black,1 white and 1 gold(the better to go with the rest of my wardrobe). I also tuck so everything stays in place.

Hi everyone, I had a question:

I also use the abominal tuck, but when I do, I notice that the pelvic area directly in front of the 2 cavities seems to bulge out a little, if that makes sense. It's not nearly as bad as NOT tucking, but I feel like it's still noticable (though maybe I'm just paranoid).

Does anyone else experience this? And if so, is there a way to limit this unintended effect?

Hon your question makes perfect sense. The same thing happens to me too. One thing that I do know is that little extra volume is not really noticeable. We notice it more because we are aware its there. Try not to think about it and you will be fine.

Love.

Hi Brenda,

I guess it's not just me after all! I did kind of wonder if maybe I was just being overly conscious of it.

Thank you so much for your reply,

Hi Gina,

We all get that. If someone thinks you are Trans and they know the tell tale signs - then that is a little giveaway BUT, to do that they have to be looking at a womans pubic area (not polite and not very Gentlemanly) and you would be quite within your right to give that person one of your 'grrrrrr' stares. After tucking for a while or taking HRT, the testes tend to atrophy anyway - then they become slightly less noticable. Hope this helps.

Thanks, JustMeUK! Lol, yeah, that's a pretty good point!

I had one more (kinda dumb) question: Some people are talking about the "pantyhose method." There was a video link at the beginning, but it no longer works. What does this method entail?

Thank you!

Not a dumb question at all. Here's a similar video:

In this video they use the elastic from a tube sock, while the prior video (if it was the one I watched a while ago) used a part of the leg of the same pair of panty hose.

The concept is the same. Basically you're making a very tight thong-like thing to hold everything in place. Then you put a pair of panties on over it.

Personally, I just wear a pair of panties and then wear a pair of tights, leggings, or spanx on top. Works well as long as it doesn't get too hot outside. I may have to make a gaff for the summertime this year though.

Hope that helped!

Thanks a million Kaylee, that helps a lot! Yeah, I've done it with tights/leggings before too, but I really want to try Spanx, I keep hearing about them.

(You have a very pretty name, by the way!) :)

Thanks *^_^* it's not really my name but it's close.

Spanx are great but can be expensive. I found some at Kohl's the other day for about 50% off though. There are also usually some on eBay but watch for unreasonable shipping charges and for heavens sake don't get dragged into a bidding war.

Also, they are quite tight. I bought a couple a size down not knowing how tight they are. Might not want to do that ;)

Guest Amber Lynn

Thanks for the info!

I don't want to get too far off-topic, and forgive my ignorance, but: Which kind of Spanx do you get, or if you dont know, how far up the waist / down the legs do they go? There are so many varieties, I'm curious on what other girls like to use. Also, have you found any that help pad the hips?

Thank you so much, Kaylee!

The pair I found at Kohl's are the high-waisted leggings with feet. They fit a little more snugly than the Hue leggings I like, for the same size. I tend to wear the footed leggings when it's cool outside.

I just recently bought a couple pairs of the Spanx "Love your assets" mid-thigh shapers. These two I bought a size lower and *wow* are they tight. Didn't have to worry one bit about anything moving out of place but I wondered if my legs were turning purple all day ;)

I haven't used any with padding. Personally, hoping my figure gets there on its own ;)

Ah - Ha! hehe I was trying to find this topic for a while because I had a question about heat. I get incredibly hot down there, and with that come sweat and then pain. If there an easy remedy that I do not know about? I was thinking of innovating on the Sock video from above and creating a second a pock that you can slide stuff into to avoid the skin of skin contact when you pull everything up.

I was loving my tucking until it got really warm out side. The heat plus the high humidity we get as well as my own furnace... I just don't know what to do that stops the pain.

Best wishes and take care.

I know exactly what you mean, My normal core temp is 99.6 ° F and as such, I have the same difficulty. I do hope someone has an answer to this as I still have not figured one out. If I do find the answer I will be sure to post it here for you.

Here is what I do to make it work for me. I have found that most bikini swimsuit bottoms hold everything in nice and tight and most styles look alot like undies anyways. I find then on sale for 3-5 every year around the time they start putting school cloths out and stock up.For the sweating issue use corn starch as it will absorb the sweat very good and keep things alot dryer down below. Hope this will help you out..

      I had fun doing this a few weeks ago.  This is how I got rid of -money:     This music player code of mine is really working out nice.  My music collection is all mp3 files.  I put them on my server and then code things like that to play them and loop them.  And then I coded an app while I was in the mental hospital in 2009 that I use to transcribe my music with.  It's a Windows app and you can browse to an mp3 or use a URL to an mp3.  Once it is in the program, it looks like a normal music software timeline and there are sliders to slow it down and speed it up by octaves, semitones and cents, so you have complete control over what key the music is in.  And you can create loops in it and I added a feature a few years ago where it remembers all the settings so when you open it again, you still have the same loop set with the pitch settings.  I've been putting my favorite recordings in it lately, setting the funkiest loop I can find and then slow it down an octave or more.  Then I play drums to it and piano stuff, or pennywhistle.  I like playing drums on the floor.  Even though I got rid of money and well, I should have done that decades ago, I had a good time the other day hitting my bin of GO stones with my drumstick.   I don't know if I'll get flagged for self promotion here or not.  You know, I'm a musician and I'm just sharing ideas for how to listen to and enjoy learning to play music.  I'm not the only one who has made tools like this.  I'm really geeking out on my roommates drumset.  I learned to play in the 90's, but I haven't had a set since then.  I've been playing 5 gallon plastic water bottles as hand drums for 30 years.  They are relatively inexpensive and common and they sound great.  Very fun to play along to your favorite music.  And if you can slow the music down, it can make it easier to play to for some songs.  As advanced as I get as musician, I still enjoy just meditating on playing some simple pattern over and over.  Lately I've been playing an Emin7 chord going to an Fmaj7 chord on the piano.  It's all white keys.  You just play an E and then skip a key etc...  Every other key for 4 notes and then just move that all up one key for the Fmaj7 chord.  I just like the droning quality of it.

      Welcome to the forums! Writer and graphic artist (and photographer) here as well, though most of my life has been spent in the sports realm... bless you with three teenagers!! I have two and they are a handful ... I have found a lot of encouragement and help on this forum... Hope you do as well... Blessings on your journey ahead ...    Easy

      During COVID lockdowns without any place to go, some neighborhood buddies and I would play Life for hours (imagine a bunch of middle aged men playing that game, it was a hoot - all sorts of 'house rules')... anyways, as much as I could get away with it, I would choose a pink peg to represent myself... sometimes even had a female name to go with it... this was before I even really pondered whether or not I was trans ...   I was very determined to do this ... so interesting to look back and see all the threads pointing me to where I am now, though it has come as such a surprise as well...   Easy

      Thank you all for the helpful responses... I realize some of HRT is for mental health -- like I said above I really am enjoying the ride so far in that regard!   Guess there is a part of me that wants to have my cake and eat it too. I want to have a nice feminine shape within reason for my age (fat distribution - you can kick in whenever you want!!). Yet, I am still not out to family, so I want it to be subtle enough as I go along that I can cover tracks when necessary ... Not the ideal situation but it is what it is ... maybe when family realizes that this is not making me into a monster, they will come around to some of it. I can hope, right?   More and more, I just want to look in the mirror and see a female body staring back at me ... I want female clothing that I put on to look like it fits me to a T... (and by T, I don't mean testosterone, lol)...    EasyE

      Good afternoon M.A.   Welcome to Transgender Pulse Forums, I think you'll find that there are a lot of us who had their first therapist reconsidering our story and recommended us to gender or LGBTQIA specific therapist. I made my first therapist cry after asking me what was my worst experience or memory. She was not prepared for the can of worms I brought to the couch. My second therapist is a gem, she's my age and knows how to work with my thoughts.    My two kids were also involved in the arts programs in school one in theater, the other combined art and modern music.   Best wishes, stay positive, and motivated,    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I'm wearing a white t shirt and jeans.  The t-shirt is softer than a man's and slightly girly.  Feeling kinda pretty.
    • Abigail Genevieve
      That's very common in internet forums and it is hard not to take it personally sometimes.   You might post "bump" with a smiley face to bring it to the top of the stack, or you might use the @ feature if there are certain people you would really like to have comment on it, and say something like Dear Abby, I would really like your input on this.  Please take a minute and respond.  Thanks!!!
