Anyone order a packer from them? I'm looking to buy a new one. I went from completely hating stp fitz, to wanting one from urimate, and deciding on getting one from dj dicks but I found the transitional male site for packers and have now gone to undecided because I really really like theirs. They custom make them for you and I just wanted to see if anyone had anything to say about them.

Well, I just put in a request for an STP from them (the one with out the packer). I'll let you know what kind of customer service I get, etc. If I'm impressed I'll probably order a packer later.

i think all these devices are very uncomfortable and difficult to use - you know a lot of bio guys sit or squat to pee because they dont like to use urinals, they have a bladder problem, they have a gold ring in their foreskin which makes then spray pee everywhere - when i lst began all this, i thought it would be the ultimate to stand and pee but really it isnt, but good luck with your trials.......ive not found one which you can feel comfortable wearing and quite honestly, after a while, it ceases to be important - well at least to me............. ;)

Sorry I can't help. I found making my own works best for me. I have to use one every day hiking and can't afford to have failures or discomfort out there several hours from home. I also have to use an STP because squatting in the woods with hidden tree stands and game cameras around is just not an option for me. Not to mention the more male my appearance the safer I( am roaming the woods alone.

Please let us know how whatever you decide on works.

Yeah I put in a request too, and have yet to hear a response. I guess we shall see!

I can't go without one lol. I just feel "empty". I like the feeling of something being there, it makes me feel whole. I guess everyone is different.

Nick runs a very good web site at the Transitional Male. And, he's been out in our community for years, way before a lot of these other guys that are running around spouting stuff. And, if you need your new underwear fixed to pack, he can do it for you. I bought some stuff from him quite a few uears ago and he was very accomodating.

................i dont mean i dont pack - i also would feel something was missing, ive got so used to it - i pack all the time, except when im alone i bed or in the shower, but dont use a STP, simply because they are uncomfortable and unless you need to "go" when youre outside, then not really necessary, though i understand that some f2m's see standing up to pee as a part of their passage (pun intended) - well you gotta laugh too - i was living in a tent on the beach in Andalucia, southern Spain, just for a while, just before having my chest op - well the missus and i had been having a good old time drinking the local vino and i was so sozzled, i forgot i had breasts and was walking to the showers with a towel around my waitst - i think in the back of my mind, i must have been simply ignoring my physical state, a bit of wishful thinking, lol! - but also, later, (several bottles later) - i also thought I'd pee up against a tree - again, so sozzled, i also forgot i didnt have a penis, so it went all down my leg - i prefer to look at the lighter side of my "difficulties" - and still laugh about it today............having said that, when i was a kid, i used to stand on the toilet rim and stand to pee - that way worked - but being older, i would probably lose my balance and fall in the hole - but at home, when i have no clothes on i can, if i hold myself in a certain way - apply pressure with my stomach muscles, make water come out in a kinda fountain - till it gets to the last drop, when theres no force, then its a bit tricky, so i ony do that now and then.

Unfortunately I don't have a great bladder-a result of childbirth problems - but have had to learn a few things other guys learn about standing to pee as toddlers. Like making sure which way the wind is blowing, the slant you are standing on, and exactly where that shirt tail is in relation to your equipment and not losing focus as it were ( I can be a day dreamer and mentally wander off at times when an interesting idea strikes). Has made me cringe and laugh more than once

Kinda nice to find a place I can mention it. That is one subject my family does not want to hear anything about.

I must have not read your last post right lol. But your story is hilarious. I always forget I was born female, until I take off my clothes, and when I remember, its always disappointing :(

I would have never thought about the wind myself, which is probably something that should easily be known lol. The problem I have is, is the way I am standing. I tend to push my hips forward in order for things to work better, and I still have problems controlling flow because I leak at least 70% of the time.

Leaking was a problem for me till I found the right kind of end that works best for me. Nothing but the medicine spoon works and now that I have found a way to make a soft end just like it, so those eye watering pinches are a thing of the past, it's all good. Leaks, when you are away from home shopping all day or a couple of hours hike from home with weather in the teens, just isn't something I can live with. The cheapest way to find what works best is to get a Playtex baby nipple, a medicine spoon and one of the cheaper whiz things on ebay along with some latex tubing from ebay and work with them till you find what works. ( I made a couple of threads about making STPs with more specific info. They are in the FTM forum). I'm really financially challenged right now-far worse than any time in my life-and just couldn't afford to buy different STPs till I found the right one.

I do remember when I was first trying to use an STP and using the wrong kind for me and had leaks. It would seem to work sometimes and then suddenly fail or leak. I felt like throwing myself down and having the full blown temper tantrum of the small boy that the failures made me feel like. Wanted to give up too because it made me feel worse and not better about my situation but that wasn't an option with the hiking and I finally got it worked out. I wonder if we all don't go through a time like that but find it hard to bring up or talk about?

He got back to me quickly.

I've tried the medicine spoon and it doesn't quite work, so I ordered his larger option, and the silicone tubing (I have latex allergy), with the removable catcher option so I can change it out if needs be later myself.

I'm not ready to pack, but want to have the hang of the STP by the time I go camping next month. I hate porta potties.

i have yet to try the medicine spoon. I've tried the nipple style which didn't work at all for me and am now using he whiz which tends to leak here and there. I'm wondering now if the medicine spoon will be a better option for me.

i had a hystorectomy ih l996 because, after 2 episiotomies , my insides were practically falling out - they made such a mess of me with 2 difficult births, but after the hysto and repairs, i was lucky it didnt affect my bladder - I have come to the conclusion that stp's are just too much "bother" - as ive said before, lots of bio guys sit or squat to pee, male toilets here are usually a nasty experience anyway, they stink and in a pub or club on a busy night, you find you are ankle deep in other guys urine - i have been known to urine in a bottle to avoid them, but when i misjudged just how much i needed to pass, it has overflown, lol..............sometimes, seeing the funny side of these things helps

Another tale i would like to relate was, when i was a dragking, in the late 1990's and early 2000's, one of my characters i invented was Little Billy London, he was a 12 yr old orphan from the east end of London and lived in the "workhouse" - where people went in Victorian times if they were homeless and starving, My song and dance routine included some very risque jokes and songs - including "the little boy that Santa Clause forgot" only instead of the treacly words my mum used to sing to me, because Little Billy London was also a transboy and the gig ended with this song - the words went like this: I wasnt on T then and had a very high soprano voice.......so could make my voice very boyish (wrinkles were a bit of a probem - lol)

Im the Little Boy that Santa Claus forgot

And Goodness know, I didnt want a lot

I sent a note to Santa for a penis and some testicles

It broke my little heart to find

He'd finished all his calls

In the street I envy all those lucky boys

All urinating up the wall with so much joy

Dont feel sorry for this Transgender - (then I pulled the apple from my pants, bit into it and threw it into the audience)

Ive ony got a Fanny...................

Im the Little Boy that Santa Claus forgot................

i never use 4 letter words Mary Ellen, not even at home, I dont use bad language at all - it wasnt one of those it was "pis---g" which is used on all trans and butch/femme sites - i.e. Pis---g packer etc and isnt, so far as i know, a swear word.......?? but i shallnt use it again as perhaps its a naughty word in the U.S. which i wasnt aware of and i certainly wouldnt want to offend anyone - anywhere!

The most altogether brain free method (might even work if you were drunk-- not that I recommend it) would be the pstyle. No way is it really great for discretely carrying in your pocket. OTOH, if you got the clear one, no way would anyone have any idea what it is. Get off amazon as it is quite a lot cheaper. It would be there for you when hiking and you won't be missing. It would fit easily in a day pack.

Also the fenis/mr. fenis is good. I think like all those other silicone jobies it depends on how you hold it.

Practice an stp in the shower as ymmv.

I've been practicing in the shower or in my own loo. I tend to miss the spot with the medicine spoon, usually when I think I've got the hang of it and gone to practicing in clothes.

Aaden, Did you send a follow up text confirming your order as requested? He answered my text pretty quickly.

No, I didn't. That was probably my problem lol. I can't get back to the number. I'm just gonna redo the request, and let him know what I did, so that it doesn't seem like I'm just submitting a lot of requests.

I sent him the text message and he responded with "congrats on your surgery. I have a new phone please give me your last name so I can add you to my contacts. "

Thats just weird. I didn't even say I had surgery?

      happy trans birthday! I can't speak personally on the subject, but I hope hormones bring you the changes you're looking for <3 
    • MaeBe
      That’s super healthy, to see that something that becomes common has less effect on you and that you are able to decipher these feelings.   Sadly, this trend tends to only deaden good feelings as we tend not to let bad feelings attenuate the same way.   I have noticed less euphoria, but still feel the dysphorias that I have. Sometimes the good sneaks in and reminds me, but often time it’s just me seeing myself in the mirror and being comfortable about what I see when embracing my realized self. I may not get the same buzz I once did, but I don’t feel incongruous when looking at a more “drab” reflection.    Wishing you strength, you are amazing!
    • KayC
      Congratulations! and Happy Trans Birthday @LittleSam! That is such a BIG milestone.  I can still remember walking out of my clinic with my first HRT presciption.  I was on Cloud-9.  Wishing you all the best in the start of your new Journey!
    • missyjo
      maebe thank you I try to be. I thank God for blessings, try to share them, beg forgiveness for my shortcomings n vow to try to do better...2 priests have said no, God doesn't condemn you just for being trans...but apparently evangelicals do   I shall vtry dear thank you  
    • MaeBe
      Meet him at the being good to others part of Christianity. At the heart of it, there are excellent tenets of the faith. Those that condemn are judging, Jesus would have us be selfless; stone casting and all that. Are you a good person? Are you putting good into the world? If your gender is an issue for God, let God judge. In the mortal realm, let your actions be heard. 
    • missyjo
      and just fi sweeten it..I'm catholic n he hasn't been for years..he's evangelical..whatever that is
    • MaeBe
      Let’s stick to cite-able fact. Most of my posts have been directly in relation to LGBTQ+ rights as it pertains to P2025 and I have drawn direct links between people, their quotes, and their agenda. I have made reference to the cronyism that P2025 would entail as well, by gutting, not cutting, broad swathes of government and replacing it with “conservative warriors” (I can get you the direct quote, but rest assured it’s a quote). All this does is constantly force the cogs to be refitted, not their movement. To say that agencies have directly defied a President is a bit much, the EPA did what Trump told them to do at the direct harm to the environment, the department of agriculture did the same by enacting the administrations forced move to KC which decimated the USDA.      How about Betsy DeVoss for Education? Or Bannon for anything? What about the revolving Chief of Staff position that Trump couldn’t stay filled? Or the Postmaster General, who did much to make the USPS worse?   Let’s not mix politics with racism, sexism, or any other ism. Because Trump made mainly white, male, appointments—many of them not, arguably, people fit for service—or unwilling to commit to term. I can argue this because, again, he’s up for election and will do what he did before (and more of the same, his words).   Please delineate how the selected diversity appointments have negatively affected the US, other than being black, women, or queer? Representation matters and America benefits when its people are inspired and empowered.

      When I first started figuring things out, I got a lot more euphoria. Every time a friend would use he/they pronouns for me, I'd get this bubbly feeling, and seeing myself look masculine made me really happy. Dysphoric state felt more normal, so I guess I noticed the pain it caused me less.   Now, it's more just that my pronouns and such things feel natural, and dysphoria is a lot stronger -- I know what's natural, so experiencing the opposite is more jarring than everything. The problem is, most of my natural experiences are from friends, and I rarely get properly gendered by strangers, much less by my family. I've found myself unable to bind in months due to aches, colds,, and not wanting to risk damage.    It partially makes me want to go back to the beginning of my journey, because at least then I got full euphoria. I'm pretty sure it'll be like this until I medically transition, or at the very least get top surgery (you know all those trans dudes online with tiny chests? Not me, unfortunately). It's a bit depressing, but at least I know that, eventually, there's a way out of this.
    • RaineOnYourParade
      Major mood, right here ^^^    I've listened to Lumineers to a long time (a major portion of it by osmosis via my mom), so that is almost painfully relatable
    • RaineOnYourParade
      As for getting a button-up/formal pants suit, you can try to talk to her more -- Cis women in tuxes have worn tuxes in recent years, after all, (for example, Zendaya) so it can still be a relatively safe topic. For jumpsuits, I'd recommend going with a simple one with a blazer, if you can -- this'll make it look overall more masculine. There's a lot of good brands, but going for one without a lot of extra glitz on it will make it look less feminine under a blazer. I don't know many specific brands though since I usually just get my stuff from chain stores, sorry :<   When it comes to your hair, if you can't cut it, you can look up tutorials on fluffing it up instead. If you can pull it off, it can look a lot shorter and more androgynous instead!
    • RaineOnYourParade
      As far as I'm aware, he wasn't -- he just sometimes wore skirts, which was why it was a question in the first place.   In my opinion, part of that is because of the way press spares attention on issues like that. As a bit of a true crime nut and what I see: Child predator cases' (and cases of a sexual nature in general) press focus on those with an AMAB perpetrator generally, and very rarely are AFAB perpetrators given much press time or even getting tried due to a whole bunch of issues I'm not gonna get into. Because of this, when you see these types of cases and a boy is the victim, it's almost always a queer person who is the one who committed a crime that gets press. Therefore, with the amount of cases seen with this type of perpetrator (and due to the fact "99% of queer people are not sexual criminals" doesn't attract eyes), the human brain can kind of naturally makes an association with it. It's not right, but it's also a fault I think falls partially on the media.   That's all my opinion, though!   This is extra confusing to me, as a feminine man is usually viewed as gay. If someone is refusing the acknowledge the existence of trans people, then gay would be the societal connection that comes after, I think. So, that sorta implies that trans women wouldn't be interested in women in the first place by those assumptions? Of course, trans lesbians exist (most trans women I know like women, actually), but it's a little ridiculous to me that people will deny trans people's existence, call all feminine AMAB people gay, and say that trans people are looking to peep all in the same breath.   Wow, this was a lot longer of a response than I was planning to write--

      For one thing, the practice of putting into office wholly unqualified people simply because of racial, sexual or national characteristics.  It is no accident that Karine is a Haitian immigrant, Black and lesbian.  Kamala Harris is a Black female. Pete Buttigieg is gay.  Often you find that Biden explicitly stated that this is why he hired them, not because of competence, but because they checked so many boxes on his little list.  It makes a mockery of people and is a disservice to the US.

      I am not sure why people are in favor of unaccountable agencies with bloated budgets and wasteful spending.
