Underwear


ChelseaAnn

Recommended Posts

So, more recently my wife helped me out with underwear and found out that, for 2 years, I've been wearing the wrong size panties. Note, I am pre everything, so underwear is the one thing I can hide full time.

Since I've figured out the size problem, I'm looking at branching out to non brief, non bikini style underwear. I tried boyshorts before and liked the style, but they were not a great fit.

Anyone have good choices of underwear styles that work for them. I'm of average size down there, and occasionally pop out of panties when I have those annoying reminders that I'm male.

The main problem that I found with panties was basically the gusset was always to narrow however, things did become a little easier after I had my Orchiotomy. Most of the time I wear rather boring basic cotton panties but I do have a good selection of lace shorts. Also I have started to wear pretty lace bodies under dresses.

Personally I wear cheekies and thongs a lot more lately than I did in the past. I do still wear boyshorts and regular bikinis as well just not as often. I think it's probably due to the fact that I spend a lot of my down time in leggins and long tshirts. If you shop on amazon a lot I would say try some of the less expensive styles and see what you like and works for you. You can buy them one or two at a time fairly cheap so you are not out much if you find you don't like them.

Until you get a "reduction" these don't do a good job of holding...

I find cotton to be the best for keeping things in line. It’s like they have some give or stretch so your extra parts get snugged in there. But they don’t hide well for the same reason. I have similar luck with all styles I’ve used. But I prefer a thong myself. After the first few weeks you forget they’re wedged up your rear end and it’s just free and comfy to me.

I prefer bikinis or hipsters too. With a little research it is possible to find those with wider gusset. I think cotton is better than synthetic for hygene etc.Although I have not worn them to the beach yet (unusually I have not been at all this year), I have made some high waist bikini bottoms. I used the gusset dimensions from male trunks and the rest from female bikini bottoms, and look normal female, but have wide gusset. I also, apart from the normal lining, made the lower area with two layers of swimsuit material so that the holding power is higher than normal.They should work well!

I have some boyshorts that I have started with and still go back to a few times.  But I love my hipsters from VS.

 

Thanks for the idea Kirsten.  I have wanted to try a thong, especially when I wear my leggings.  

 

I have also been in VS and have actually done the measure and fit for the bras and found the correct way to wear a bra and how the fit is.  I was told that I am a 38B at VS.  I have picked up 4x T-Shirt style bras by VS in my size and they are so comfortable.  I do not even realize that I am wearing a bra.

 

Lots of Love

Watch out for that “bulge” issue in tight pants Amy. I find the thong hides less than a brief in my experience.  Maybe a long top with the leggings.  ?

Thank You very much.  I am lucky that I have already had 1 Oreacmitatoy.  I am missing 1 since my Cancer so I only have 1 and not 2 and the hormones have made it smaller so between having it small and only 1, it is very easy to hide, even under the tightest clothes and underware

I have lots of cotton cheeky panties  from VS. I was born with a single teste yet have a small peanut size 2nd teste from surgery when i was 7. Tucking is really easy for me with the VS cheeky panties, and the fact i think i have the taping figured out for comfort. They are a great choice,  at least for me.

Hi! The best Thong in my opinion is “Iris & Lilly Women's Cotton Thong with Lace, Pack of 5.” 

The do a really good job holding the furniture in place. The trick is the lace trim. It both looks sexy and creates enough of a gaff for the parts.

I prefer Cotton High leg or Full Breifs.  Nothing better than comftable underwear. 

 

It would appear im an undies outcast  From  a strange place. A weirdo

 

Dont get me wrong there was a time that I sacrificed myself to living on an undercarriage knife edge so to speak. But no more :nope:

      Thanks.  What I do as a man is what a woman would do if she were a man.  There is just something feminine about the way I act as a man.  It's not that being a woman is actually better, or something to aspire to, but it is just that I am one, while not being one.   If beating my head bloody to get rid off this stupid dysphoria would fix it I would find the nearest wall, but I know that if I did that, when I woke up, it would still be there.   If I did not have this struggle I would be someone else and I would be less of a person than I am.  They say an oak tree growing in an open field is far stronger than one in a forest.  The storms come and go and I stand.   This forum is the first time I have interacted with other people struggling with the same struggle and parallel struggles. It helps.

      That's me too, Mae.  I don't think it's me as much as it is the camera (that's my story anyway).  Cameras hate me.  I never met one that liked me.  I often wish I was photogenic; sadly, not so much.   However, you look terrific in that selfie!

      April, I'm so glad things went well when you came out to your spouse.  So often, things can go sideways.  It's a hurdle we all have to jump at some point.

      I totally understand what you just said. I can relate to this very well. I have a lot.of similar feelings.

      What an amazing life you've shared with your wife. I can understand the trepidation you had at telling her at that point in your relationship but it certainly saved all of the guilt, the questioning and the secrecy that would have filled your lives had you not.   I'm on the other end of the spectrum having denied and buried my truth for decades and fast approaching 50 years of marriage when the dysphoria and depression finally came to critical mass and I unloaded it all on a New Year's Day morning. As you might imagine, it led to a lot of questions, of questioning everything, of anger and hurt on my wife's part. Guilt, embarrassment, fear...and anything else you can imagine on my part.   Thankfully, our love for each other has always been the foundation of our relationship and, ultimately, we both agreed that staying together was what we both wanted. It was a tough year but, now into the 2d since my coming out, we've hit our stride and are exploring this new norm in our life.   I do so love your blog.

      I thought I would try my version of this. Changes in bold.   I am Transgender.  Sometimes it is remote, sometimes close. Sometimes I am euphoric, sometimes depressed. It is something I cannot get away from and cannot welcome enough. I see some things both ways that neither men as men see or women as women see.  I can be gentle and compassionate and hard as nails. I was born with male genitals but a female heart   I have my heart.  Whatever it is. When I look at a female, I wish I looked like her  Depends on the woman.  When I look at a male, I wish I did not look like him   Ditto. I envy female movements, softness, behaviors, appearances, fashion...EVERYTHING Female Depends. Sometimes I get angry at them because women spend time and energy in ways men don't.  It is not necessarily bad.  I could do without the gossip. Not all women gossip.  Excessive focus on fashion is something I find annoying. And expensive. I tolerate all things male out of social obligation...not because I feel like a man or because it makes me happy....but because that's what I was forced to believe was my only choice....beginning in early childhood. Sometimes it is helpful to put on the Iron Man suit and act accordingly.  But I have seen some tough women. When I look at myself in the mirror in only bra and panties...I can see my nude female body...and it makes me smile and feel amazing and warm inside....yet sad because that is not my reality. I could go either way, mostly. Really.  In tests in the last two years technicians have gone really quiet when they see how little body and leg hair I have.  I looked at myself this morning.  Remove a few clues and a girl is standing there. When I look at myself in the mirror in only boxers...I can see my nude male body and it saddens me deeply and makes me feel sick and depressed...and at times...even ashamed....Because this IS my reality. At this point I am not going to do that. In the mood I am in I might break the mirror. My true gender does not influence my sexual interests or preferences...or change who I am....in any form or fashion. Gender identity is in no way connected to anything sexually related on any level.  Not sure I want to make that statement so categorically. Life as a male leaves me with a feeling that something is off...that something is missing...that something is not as it should have been.   Well put. The idea of having to continue living as a male...as someone I am not...for the rest of my life...even if its only part time...causes great sadness and anxiety within myself. I've got priorities beyond this that this must fit into. The idea of living as the girl I am and always have been on a full time basis...regardless of where I am, what I am doing or who I am around...brings me great joy, happiness and a sense of peace within myself.  Would be neat. Looking like and living as a girl makes me smile.   Would be neat.  There are downsides.  Looking like and living as a guy makes me sad.   I have had lots of practice accepting this. I am Transgender....I am a girl
