Best Underwear for pre operation non tucking MTF


Natalie21

Recommended Posts

I was wondering if anyone had any underwear suggestions on the best underwear for pre operation non tucking for MTF.

 

I’ve tried “mens” compression shorts for sports which I like but you can see the lines where it ends on my thighs in leggings. Parade boy shorts seamless. They are made for all genders. For me though just walking, everything slipped out multiple times. So they aren’t a great option. I’ve also tried Tomboy x boy shorts. Again made for all genders. I got the underwear but you could see them under leggings. I’ve asked the customer support of the active kinds are a better option. Just waiting for a reply. This is a issue for me as I’m in the exercise science field, so leggings and shorts are my outfits. So I need a solution. And “mens compression shorts aren’t it for the reason above and they are longer than the shorts.

Personally, I used a gaffe panty. Nothing complicated, but it kept everything where it was supposed to be and shaped the area correctly.

 

Hugs!

I've been finding that what I like best is to get panties that are made with any kind of nice stretchy material, and size down about a size or two. (The sizes of the leg holes in women's panties seem to be much more forgiving than they are in men's briefs, so I haven't found that little bit of sizing down to be problematic. If I had sized down on my old men's briefs, I probably would have cut off leg circulation!)

 

I also find that it helps to wear them angled forward a bit (compared to how I would wear men's underwear): Ie so their front is actually down a bit (so it does a better job of covering my "bits" and things are less likely to fall out the side), and then the rear side sits up a bit higher.

 

YMMV, of course. I have a very "plus sized" body (*cough*), and this seems to work well for me.

What Is a Gaffe panty you mention? I’ve seen that word but dint understand it

 

It is very much like an Athletic Supporter (aka Jock Strap) that has heavy elastic that pulls the penis and testicles up next to the body in the crotch area.  Gaff's are also known as Dancer's Belts in some places.  When called "panites" the garment is built into an actual female fabric underwear.

I was wearing a Calvin Klein men's bikini brief for many years.  Then about 6 months ago i bought a small women's bikini top and bottom and that totally works for me.  I do stick out of it down below a little bit, but it is small enough to be supportive.  I love the bra.  So much better than the other small bras I was experimenting with.  It's padded and with my fairly large male breasts, it looks pretty good.

 

I ended up buying 22 pair!  They were about $25/each on Amazon.

 

I absolutely hated the men's whitey tighties that I wore growing up.  They were itchy and too big to really be supportive.  Just gross.  Then my biking partner in the 90's turned me on to boxers.  They surprisingly work pretty well with bicycling.  I was wearing silk boxers in the 90's and I was wearing a purple silk shirt.  I just remembered that the other day.  That's the way I roll!

      Aside from the X-Files, Gilmore Girls is easily my favorite TV show. I originally watched the original airing in the commuter lounge at my college starting in 2000 because I was embarrassed to watch it at home when I living as a man. Now that I am out and transitioned, I watch it openly and wear Gilmore Girls t-shirts at work on days that I wear a skirt. For Valentine’s Day, my wife bought me the DVD’s. Yesterday I had to stay at work late because of an IT problem (I am not IT so I just had to make sure the pump stations telemetry was functioning properly before I could leave, IT did the actual work) and so I watched it on Netflix. Lorelai Gilmore inspired me to change my name to Lorelei. Yes, I picked a more traditional spelling on the name. The mother daughter interaction between them is heartwarming and sometimes hilarious. Last week I just started rewatching it again. Ironically I relate most to Luke, very rare as I almost always relate to a female character. Anyone else here love the show?

      Good morning everyone,   @Birdie continued prayers for you as they figure thing out. I'm glad you're being properly cared for.   @April Marie I love the pageantry of the Kentucky Derby the bright dresses, and fascinating hats worn by the ladies. As for the mint juleps... I'll pass, they're just to aromatic for me.  We'll be watching "The Fastest Two Minutes in Sports" as well.   @Adrianna Danielle & @awkward-yet-sweet it is amazing how a new stove seems to cook food better. Cooking for 36 people is a phenomenal task, and if you're doing it on anything less than a professional cook stove. You're preforming miracles, and I wish you the best.   My yard work is done for the day, because I don't have to wait until Saturday to do it. I'm getting use to this mostly retired situation. The windows and doors have been open since I first got up and the yard is full of bird songs. I have the best neighbors because they don't start their noisy yard work until very late morning or early afternoon.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Oooh, that still sounds chilly!!! Our pool was opened yesterday and it's a brisk 59 deg.

      I took an involuntary swim wearing my quick dry hiking pants and shirt. Lifejacket not shown but present on the rock I am sitting on. Watson is dry now but I am still soaked. I capsized my kayak 5 feet from the shore trying to land on an island. Water in the pond was surprisingly warm considering it is early may in upstate New York.

      @Birdie best of luck to you, my friend.   @MaeBe, nothing ventured, nothing gained! Good luck!

      Oh I will. He loves to just sleep on the couch and sleep. Not very active at all which I'm mixed about. Less to do but also want him to do more too.

      We had a German Shepheard/Lab cross! It was actually our son's dog but when he moved out, Axel stayed here. ❤️ He was soooo awesome! Totally goofy, but really smart, and a million percent lovable. Unfortunately, he didn't even get to see his fifth birthday. 😢 He did both hind knees in quick succession, which were repaired, but he re-injured one and it wasn't repairable. The grief we went through after we made that horrible decision was far worse than anything we have ever experienced before or after.    @Ashley0616, please be gentle with his joints until he is all grown up!   This pic is when he was still a puppy.

      When things seemed really rocky with my wife. I had thought about moving to the PNW. WA and OR are quite LGBTQ friendly. Even interviewed for a couple jobs there.   Hugs, Kymmie

      Friday night was pizza night, which is actually pretty routine here.    Tonight was a bit of a seafood fry-up. Crumbed flathead tails pan fried, crumbed scallops and chips (fries) deep fried, and a salad.   Tomorrow night will be junk food at a football game.

      I was admitted upstairs for observation. The nurse last night took one look at me and said, "we need to use a FEMALE external catheter on you."   They placed a PureWick catheter over me and it's working great. If there isn't anything to connect a male catheter to it just isn't going to work.   So far I haven't passed more blood, and my abdomen does feel better. A specialist is supposed to see me today and perhaps order a colonoscopy to find out where all the blood came from.

      Is the first picture a game of some sort?

      I have felt more like myself since last year. I'm glad to have came out. I'm no longer living a lie.

      My hips were killing me earlier. Must've slept on them wrong; older
