Questions about "the tuck"?

[Briana90802]

Ok so I've tried doing the tuck thing. Can't say it's the most comfortable thing I've ever done.

Q1- how often do you tuck? I mean do you only do it when you go out en femme?

Q2- does it ever become comfortable?

[JohnH]

I never tuck.

[sissystephanie]

When my late wife was alive I used to "tuck" almost every day, and no I never thought of it as being very comfortable! Since she died over 5 years ago, I haven't "tucked" since than. At my age (quite senior) I don't think it makes much difference. If people don't like it that is thier problem, not mine!

[Robin Lee]

I just wear tight G-string pantys that push the boys up & in. It also gives me a little camal to in tight pants. Enjoy! LOL

[thechic]

Hi there
I tuck all the time as i wear woman's jeans and tops when working ,because of the job, the jeans just don't look good with the bulge so i tuck.
You do get use to it.

[Tasha2633]

It took awhile to get used to it, but now I'm tucked all the time. I'm not that well endowed anyway so it is not uncomfortable. Now it would feel strange not to be tucked.

[SheriM]

I tuck almost everyday for at least a couple hours. I'm past the child making age so I'm not worried about that. For me, everything goes under and back, held in by tight panties and a girdle. It has never been uncomfortable. If dressed all day, I'm tucked all day.

[docrobbysherry]

I only tuck when I dress! Lol!

If I was going out for MANY HOURS in something that didn't show the bulge, I mite tuck up in front with a girdle.

It's not uncomfortable if u get everything just rite! I wear 2 or more tite panties, backwards, when tucking.

[bobi jean]

I am uncomfortable if not tucked. Even tuck when I go to bed. Not always when I wake up, but it starts out that way..
No tape, nothing except tighter fitting panties and haven't had any problems for several years. Tucking has never been uncomfortable for me but it did take a few tries to get everything in just the right position. Things will slip once in a while but a trip to the ladies room will fix that easly and quickly enough. You will get used to it and believe me, if everything is put away properly it is an amazing look and feeling... Enjoy

I tuck alll the time when en femme. It does feel a bit odd at first but now it is compltetely comfortable and I wouldn't think of dressing untucked. Get a good Gaff and get it a size smaller than your panty size that way it fits snuggly enough to keep every thing tightly in place. That was the excellent advice I got at our local CD store when I got my first Gaff.

[Pythos]

Most of my styles are tight, and even the ones that are not still do not look good with a front bulge when I am presenting a feminine image. In answer to your question I tuck only one presenting a female image, other wise I don't.

I have to say I really do not like the male bulge, but I think that is due to social stigma, there was a time men emphasized or exaggerated that part (cod pieces anyone...blea), so even when doing androgynous or male looks I reduce or obscure that oh so wonderful feature :).

It is uncomfortable only when a really attractive female comes in ;) But provided the pantyhose are on right and holding things in place, there are no issues :)

I do however wonder or worry how much if any damage we do when we tuck. The longest I have been seriously tucked is 4 hours, any long, and I just put down a leg of my hose. (sorry if too graphic, we are human males after all)

[Samantha43]

I usually tuck when I dress although it's never been that comfortable for me. I have to tape everything in place and wear a tight fitting g-string.

It's really uncomfortable when something slips out of place!

[Misti]

Gawd, how I love this forum. I'm like a sponge here, I'm learning by leaps and bounds with every thread I read. Take this one, for instance: "You will get used to it and believe me, if everything is put away properly it is an amazing look and feeling... Enjoy" - Bobi. I am trying it manually right now and have to say, Amen! Next up the G-string... Thanks ladies. you're all amazing. XOXO Misti

[Robertacd]

I do a "light" tuck everyday since I always wear women's jeans. It is not uncomfortable anymore, it is was a bit at first. I used to just go as long as I could, then let "it" out. Noe after a couple years of daily tucking "it" is kind of used to it and I swear "it" is curved a little more that it used to be.

I guess I should elaborate, my daily "light tuck" involves no tape or shaving. I simply push the boys up a bit and bend "it" under between my legs. I hold it all together with a pair of panties.

I wonder if it is very healthful at all to tuck. One of the arguments for skirts is they allow for air circulation around the "boys" below so that there is perhaps less occurrence of testicular and/or prostate cancer. Tucking of course is much worse than simply wearing pants.

With skirts and dresses it should not be necessary to tuck. I don't wear pants while en femme so there is not much of a desire for me to tuck.

[charlie]

Hello Briana!
I tuck every time that I dress up. Why bother if dressed as a guy? Anyway, I tried the tape....it hurt and was tough to remove without pulling hair out. I tried tight stretch panties...my hanging fellas always found a way to get out. What I finally found that is comfortable, easy and works was getting stretchy woman's pantys and sewing in a triangle piece of cloth in the bottom. The pouch holds the fellas low and keeps them out of sight and away. Perfect solution that only takes a bit of sewing.

[StaceyJane]

Control top pantyhose works for me.

[crashd0309]

I've read there is a way to tuck where the "boys" are sort of pushed up inside you. How is this possible?

[Michelle 51]

I enjoy the feeling of being tucked but only do it for dressing because it becomes a nuisance in guy mode out and about when you need to do a wee wee.

[bobi jean]

It's simple really. takes some practice but it works really well once you catch on. Not exactly sure how to say this without a possible NOTE from admin, but I'll try.
just push "them" up into the area just above and along side the shaft or base of the penis. You will have to hold them in place. I use the pinky and fore finger on the left hand. I use a finger under each one to hold in place while I push junior down between the legs. Actually holding HIM in place with the legs and the rest of the already busy hand, while reaching around behind and grabbing hold of him with the other hand. Now you can let go of the "THEM" but keep junior under control until you actually pull him down as far as you can, then, kind of push him between the butt cheeks and pull up your panties as best you can with the left hand. Now you will need to make a final adjustment of the panties and you should be good to go. Like I said, it will take a little practice and some patience but it won't take too long to get it right. YOU WILL KNOW WHAN IT IS RIGHT.

Sara, Lay down on your back. Then gently push one of the "boys" up towards your abdomen. With a little experimentation, you should find the home from which they came. The "boys" used to live in your abdomen until they dropped down.
Repeat for the other side.
Note:Those who have had hernia surgery, may not be able to do this.

[Jorja]

I decided i did not like the male bulge so much I simply had it removed.

[suchacutie]

I tuck en femme but I also tuck when I wear women's jeans. You all know about the bulge issue otherwise, but for me the fly often won't stay up if I don't tuck (the bulge is a real issue in that case).

It's true that it took a little bit to get used to it, but with tight panties the boys learn what to do. It is true for me that if I haven't tucked in a couple of days that it might take a couple of retuckings in the first hour to have them remember how it works :)

Once it settles in, there is nothing uncomfortable, at least for me!

[Karren H]

I tuck every time I dress and sometimes when I'm not dressed enfemme and it never hurts... actually quite comfortable....

[Suzette Muguet de Mai]

I am embarrassed, Bobi Jean did you say you can pull junior up between the butt cheeks after pushing the boys up inside? I cannot get anywhere near my butt cheeks and thats with max stretch. I have tried taping, tying and holding it with tight fitting undies yet junior always finds freedom.

[juno]

I can't do the tuck. I was born with an undescended testicle, which was repaired in a way that limits flexibility a lot. (I wonder if that trait is associated more with feminine men?) So, instead of a tuck, I just squash everything in place, and wear a thong waist cincher like this one:
http://www.herroom.com/Rago-801-Thong-Back-Waist-Cincher.shtml

It works quite well. I think squashing may be more comfortable than folding.

[Danni Bear]

it would be nice if it was simple to have that unnecessary and unwanted part removed.

well removed just sounded better for this thread than turned insideout and stuffed up inside

[GirlyGirl66]

I tuck all the time, its not uncomfortable for me.

[Mary Morgan]

I'm always "tucked".

[JESSICA 003]

I agree i tuck regularly and dont have any probs, although sometimes when i am really naughty i use glue, which does cause some irritation,but that is compensated by a great camel toe. Giggle.

[Briana90802]

Camel toe???? Really??? Is that attractive? I thought was discouraged amoungst gg? Does that really look attractive?

[Freddy12]

I tuck almost all the time. Every once in a while it's uncomfortable, but not often. I just like eliminating the bulge.

[AKAMichelle]

I tuck only when the bulge would show otherwise not. It does get to a point where it doesn't hurt as much. At times I have forgotten that I was tucked.

[Melinda G]

Tucking is uncomfortable for sure. The only time I tuck is for some full frontal pics or videos. By the way, if you take a brown eyebrow pencil, and draw a vertical line in the front, starting between your legs, with a slight Y or V shape at the top, it looks like the real thing in a photo. Glad I could be of help. :D

[Loni]

there should be no pain.
but be glad in a way that you can tuck.
after my operation. i can no longer tuck, not enough to tuck. and no not that operation..it was prostrate cancer. so now it is more a lump of flesh and most times i must sit to just go pee. aka: very short horn.

but when i was tucking there was no pain, not unconformable at all, unless i tried the tape. OUCH on the tape part.
just push up the "friends" and pull back and pull up a tight pair of panties. play around with styles. string cut works great. compared to full sized grandmas cut.

enjoy life as it is short.

[Philippa Jane]

I was tucked and taped all weekend which was not uncomfortable until it was time to remove the tape.
Not pleasant at all.
I have seen a reference to Koala swimwear (maybe here) and have been online tonight to place an order.
I shall post a comment if they are any good.
They say that the swimwear will give you the appearance of the female genitalia. Covered of course.

[deebra]

Bobbi Jean described it well, but have a pair of nylon bikinni panties one or two sizes smaller just above your knees, when everthing is tucked inside and pulled back, with legs still squeazed together to hold everything in plac, then pull up the panties and everything stays in place and surprisingly is very comfortable, feels natural and oh, so feminine.

[Karren H]

Camel toe???? Really??? Is that attractive? I thought was discouraged amoungst gg? Does that really look attractive?

Great and Camel Toe go together as good as Comfy and Hemorrhoid!! lol

[hotskirt]

I agree with Stacylane. Legs control top pantyhose are awsum.

[busker]

Philipa,
try a little vegetable oil on the tape--oil softens most adhesives and should help removing it without the ouch factor.

[busker]

Jono, thanks for pointing out the cincher--I could stand a tummy tuck and looked at that cincher and another one--the waist nipper which looks like it might even be better for what I want. Would you say that these garments are to size? somethings are smaller than they might be and some larger but I suspect these need to be pretty much on the mark to work well. Rago--see Amazon with a fabulous display of some 75 pinchers and tweekers-also shows this for those who need a tuck and a lift

[AvidFan]

GG hate but hetero men love "Cameltoe"
A while back on Chelsea Lately they showed a product that was like a gaff but covered women s cameltoe. A comedian on there said "Why not get rid of sunshine and rainbows too?"
Its like nice cleavage to a hetero man. Just totally unacceptable. Personally, I'm a big fan. When I tuck, I go for the toe

Avidfan,

As a TS POST-OP, except for very few ocassions do I desire to draw undue attention to that one portion of my anatomy. I prefer for people to see me as a complete woman not as a sex object.

Danni

[erickka]

I ain't all that well endowed either, but I only tuck when wearing tight jeans or skirts. I don't even feel it any more.

[Jilmac]

I tuck whenever I dress to go out, at home I seldom tuck. I tuck because I like the smooth feminine look. Back in my teens when I frist started experimenting with tucking, it was uncomfortable because I wasn't quite sure how to protect the boys and sitting was a problem. Through the many years of refinement I'm at a point where tucking seems the most natural thing when I dress. I am now able to tuck comfortably, sit, stoop, bend, and cross my legs. I can remain tucked for hours and even sleep tucked with no harm or ill effects.

[Pythos]

Um....I am not a GG, and I dislike an obvious cameltoe. I know know guys that like that either. When they see it, they call the woman a ****, or *****. I personally find it repulsive. On some women it looks like a set of balls. BLEAH!!!...LOL I agree with what another poster here said. I would much rather attention be applied to the whole opposed to just one part. In my case I do what I can to hide my male version of that formation. I want someone to see me as a whole, not just as a penis. LOL

[jackielou]

dont want to upset anyone but tight panties and a pad work for me makes a very smooth front

[Reggie Campion]

I try to copy the the instructions from the tread that Jeanna mention but i found out a long time ago using sanitary napkins helps a lot with tight panties giving the flat look and as someone mention the camel toes. I only do the sanitary napkin when it isn't necessary to go with a complete tuck. When i do the tuck properly there is no discomfort and i don't know it's there.

Reggie

[Lucy Long Legs]

I have read all the threads and advice and I just can't do it. The instructions all seem to require someone better endowed than I am. Maybe I am particularly small but I have no way of knowing. If I wear tight fitting panties, nobody has ever noticed a bulge and it always stays the same size, anyway.

[The_Juggler]

Note:Those who have had hernia surgery, may not be able to do this.When I was very young I had a hernia surgery, I was too little to remember it very well but I know that I had some kind of a hernia operated on.

I find it difficult to tuck and have wondered if this is the reason for it. I have a hard time keeping the testicles up in the abdomen, they fall right out.
What does hernia surgery have to do with this?


As for some advice, I recently got a waist smoother from Leggs
http://www.leggs.com/detail.aspx?style=WaistSmootherMid-thigh&id=184
It's not a panty girdle, it's just a tight smoother, pretty comfortable and very helpful in this department.

[Xandria]

i enjoy tucking, its rather fun.. i try and get the flattest look possible without using tape or anything.. i'm gonna look into using that next time as i really enjoy wearing leggings with a long shirt :)

[funforall]

i always tuck and it never hurts

[Mary Morgan]

I tuck 24/7 and am not comfortable any other way. It does require some time to adjust and it must be done correctly, but now it is a regular part of me.

[drushin703]

I always tuck when dressed enfemme, and is there any other way.The male bulge, however slight, is very
unladylike.Step one, control top pantyhose.Step two, a pad and if necessary cut to size.Step three, add a
little vasaline and pull everything back and in place...add your favorite panties and step four, have a good time.

What does hernia surgery have to do with this?

I had hernia surgery 11 or 12 years ago. I also have another in the same area that I have yet to get surgery on. A hernia is simply a muscle tear. The reason men have them more often in the groin than women is the inherent weakness in the groin because of the openings from which the testicles descended. In order to repair my hernia, they inserted a piece of titanium mesh across the tear to hold it together. (I have to mention this if I need an MRI) This makes the area less flexible I suppose, so tucking can be more difficult. The boys do slip out from time to time, but my biggest problem is usually from excess skin getting caught in the leg band and rubbing me raw.

[Vickie_CDTV]

Hearing about everyone's unique anatomy and differences in how they tuck in this thread has got me wondering. For those of us who are obese (or very obese), do you have a hard time tucking? Since men who are obese tend to have a lot more flesh down there surrounding the genitals, I wonder if it is different for us.

I have never tucked, since I don't wear anything tight and I never wear pants, it has never been an issue. It is something I am a bit squeamish about; I had a minor injury involving a testicle when I was a teenager and it is not a pain I want to risk revisiting.

[prene]

when I dress enfemme I always tuck.
I tuck very tight. I think any signs is so YUCK!!!

I love the look when I wear gg jeans and I tuck well . . .
complements the breasts and corset.

[BiancaEstrella]

I do a partial tuck and apply a bit of gaffer tape if she's excited. This is the only way I know to not have pain, and gaffer tape removes from skin rather easily.

If she's not excited, usually a strip of gaffer tape across the inside of my thighs just above the tip keeps her in place.

In both cases, she's never slipped out of place afterward, and I hope that I bat 1.000 from here on out.

[diannecourtney]

Try a gaff,they bury the guys in place and take care of the boy within the spare skin.

[danica d]

Having had inguinal hernias fixed on both sides I can still do the tuck, albeit with a lot more gentle care in setup than I probably could have before the surgeries. It is possible to do, but not sure it produces the same results as in one who hasn't had the mesh stitched in to fix the hernias.

[t-girlxsophie]

Im still a little confused,is the Tuck this thing you do putting everything up in your body or just describing putting your bits between your legs,Ive never been too keen on trying the former,the latter just seems easier to me

[zoe m]

I've never tucked, and don't think I'll be trying it anytime soon, but who knows. If you try it I'd just say be careful!
