Tucking

[Jean O]

I find I feel so much more feminine when I am tucked. I also have noticed the more time I am tucked the feeling is more natural and comfortable. Am I the only one that feels this way?

jean,

No you're not alone. We often discuss adding bits, forms, hip and bum padding to get a better shape, well losing things can be just as important. It makes our shape that bit more authentic and yes the more you do it the more your body grows use to it. I guess you'd call it muscle memory.

Jean, It may seem crazy, but I find myself tucking when in man mode. As I wear panties most of the time, tucking the boy bits just makes the panties fit that much nicer. I have really grown to like the smooth front. Tuck away! Hugs, Meg

[Penny Daniels]

I've never tried it. Honestly I didn't know how it was supposed to work until very recently despite watching a good thirteen seasons of Popular Drag Queen Reality Show. I had half convinced myself that I was supposed to tuck the boys up the back chute somehow...

(Glad I never actually tried)

I have been tucking for 40+ years - the only way to travel. Just feels right and tight skirts/dresses shows nothing.

[Suzie Petersen]

I just came home from a girl trip where I spent 6 days in girl mode. I was tightly tucked, taped up the entire time in a way where I can go to the bathroom without removing the tape. I love the way that feels.
I wore many different outfits while out shopping, at restaurants, bars, and at the hotel pool, incl a swimsuit and skin tight leggings and nobody would suspect anything other than a female body under my clothes.
Even without the taping, I often tuck in boy mode just because, and in girl mode I always will.
As Helen said, the body kinda' gets used to it and it becomes very easy and natural to do.

[GracieRose]

I tuck all the time except while I'm sleeping at night. I find it more comfortable than having those unnecessary bits hanging loose. I agree with Helen that your body grows used to it.

[BrendaPDX]

Ya, me too, always tuck when dressed en femme. I actually picked up a gaff, it's faster and easier.

[DanielleDubois]

Tucking is an essential part of my Danielle transformation. Besides the practicality of creating a smooth front and eliminating any male bulge it simply feels good and enhances the female experience I am trying to create. On good tucking days with the boys tucked up high in my body I am also able to tuck my male member up inside so that there is nothing tucked back between my butt cheeks. It temporarily makes me feel ultra feminine when everything is so totally hidden away and I can wear a sexy skimpy g-string.

[docrobbysherry]

I've been tucking every time I dress for about 30 years. Even just trying things on.:battingeyelashes:
Using 2 tite panties, reversed, takes about a minute.:)

I don't know about "feeling fem". But, I have a mirror and if I'm not tucked I just look gross!:doh:

[BiancaEstrella]

I don’t bother - the configuration is uncomfortable for me any way I try it

More power to those of you who can! Maybe I need a class or something. But I’ve done fine without it?

[Cassie2024]

i definitely tuck whenever I dress. I feel so much better when I do. I remember the first time i purchased my first pair of jeans was the first time I tucked. I did a horrible job, but it was effective. When I looked into the full-length mirror, I almost had a heart attack; my heart was beating so fast. I was look i always wanted but never knew, it was the feeling that I never suspected I desired. It all sort of came together that day, my dressing, what it meant to me, knowing it was part of me, and it was never going away, and probably the most important thing, I did not want it to go away, i wanted more, better, more connection. Damn the societal norms, the rules of masculinity and manhood. It was like I was being freed from binds of said masculinity. Since then, i have about as many gaffs as panties and male underwear. A decision is made each day regardless of if i dress en drab or en femme.

[AmyJordan]

Aaaaaaargh! I must be very squeamish because the very thought of pushing bits back up into my body makes my hair stand on end.

I honestly don't even know how it's possible without causing damage or getting it stuck resulting in the inevitable humiliating trip to the doctor

Tight panties and pantyhose suit me just fine thank you

[Elizabeth G]

If I'm dressed I'm tucked (regardless of female or male presentation). It only takes a few seconds to do and I find it very comfortable and comforting.

[Jenn A116]

I don't normally tuck. If wearing a skirt I go with a style that flares so you having a flat front isn't important. If pants/shorts, I'll push things around so they don't cause a bulge where there should not be one but that's about it.

[Jasmine23]

I don't really tuck, as most would call it, as I find wearing tight panties is enough to hold everything in place (quite small down there, so not a lot to hide!), but, I do love the the smooth flat appearance without any ugly bulge, outfits look so much better and it does make me feel more feminine. Even in boymode I often "tuck", as I like the feminine feeling it gives me.

[SophiaRose]

I always tuck when dressed. It not only helps make the clothes look better but helps with the dysphoria I occasionally experience.

[Debbie Denier]

I am with Amy on the tucking issue. As I am not the most endowed.The panties and tights are all I need.

[Cheryl T]

I do it almost all the time.
Since I'm dressed most of the time these days it's natural and just continues over into drab.

[Penny Daniels]

Do y'all tape, or use a gaffe, or something else?

[Genifer Teal]

Pushing the bits up is really no big deal. I think one kind of went there on its own, and the other one took a little coaxing. I made my a fabric strap, it's kind of a tube with velcro to hold it closed, and then another piece of Velcro, to hold it down into place. It's a really simple compact system and works well.

[Amanda James]

I've read articles and watched YouTube and I still can't tuck, I think this is where I make a blond joke :battingeyelashes:

[RoseReve]

Hello,

I'm tucked 24/7 with fufu clips or rings I use the same way as fufu clips.

It is essential to me as it does massively diminish my gender dysphoria.

I've been wanting everything to disappear since my early childhood.

I'm seriously considering vaginoplasty. But it's a very complicated question.

Anyway it doesn't hurt at all in my case, which is logical because I almost don't feel anything in this area of my body. My only spontaneous sexual feelings come from the inside of my belly, like it's the case for a lot of women (you know the butterflies in the stomach...:battingeyelashes:). I prefer to take it with humour as some kind of joke that has been played to me...

By the way I don't think the "boys" can remain stuck up...It goes down very easily...For me at least. Fortunately I would say. :heehee:

All the best, cheers,

Rose :rose2:

I don’t tuck when I’m sleeping, but I do at all other times. I love wearing pantyhose for many reasons, but the most important is they give an automatic tuck. I have other ways of getting a smooth front, including gaffs, tucking tape, and tight shapewear panties. I love having a nice smooth front.

[Stephanie47]

Heck, yes! I have never seen a woman with a strategic bulge in the genital area. From what I have observed/read in the media one of the common complaints about cross dressers is that "lump." I always find that sort of funny because there are a heck of a lot of visual displays of men in tight shorts or swim suits and that is suppose to be admired? I cannot do anything about my six foot height but a control panty is a must.

[Susan_Michaela]

I?ve been tucking for 25 years that I can remember, now days it?s really easy for me as in my case I hardly have anything left to tuck. No meaning anything too graphic or rude please don?t take it that way but the buddies just have shrunk down to nothing but had nothing to do with the tucking process. It?s that I have low testosterone and high estrogen even though I?ve never taken hrt to get there. Anyway there?s such a small amount now it?s mainly just skin and only takes a small amount to tuck what?s left and with regular women?s panties you cannot tell any difference in appearance of a genuine female appearance. I really doesn?t show when wearing a skirt or a dress the main part is wearing leggings or bathing suit or something really tight. Always have that perfect shape in the front just like a genuine GG. I?ve had many GG?s ask me about it in the past and they would have never guessed I hadn?t had surgery to look that way. Sometimes in the past it?s been a blessing and a curse but it is what it is and you go on with life.

[Karren H]

Yeah! It is more natural and more feminine looking, and more comfortable, that is until I try to ride a bike! Lol.

[Christie ann]

Karren is right, buy that cute bicycling skirt and forgo the tucking

[Marketa]

For me it's no dressing without tucking. I have some panties, that hold pretty well by themselves and for thongs and g-strings I use gaff thongs under them I got from CD shop. Unfortunately they are making only black and white ones, but I asked and they are working on nude ones, so once they are available I'll buy those too.
And I use them also when going out, just to be sure nothing will fall down.

And as many said: I love the smooth look and feeling, especially in tighter clothing like pencil skirts, leggings etc.

[sometimes_miss]

I've never known what that's like. Having always had tiny male genitalia, all it takes is a cool breeze and it all virtually flattens out by itself, shinkage about 95%. Terrific when crossdressing. A nightmare back in K=12 school years when all the boys had to take communal showers after every physical education class, and I wouldn't reach puberty until senior year in high school.

Oh well. Have to take the bad with the good. Though it is nice to be able to slide on a pair of cute panties knowing they're going to fit well.

[BLUE ORCHID]

Hi Jean :hugs:, It is alll about having a nice smooth Front,

[prene]

Jean,

I think having a nice smooth crouch is as feminine as having boobs and a nice waist.

I do it 24/7.

[Jean O]

Prone, I couldn't agree more. Seeing myself in the mirror with panties makes me feel so satisfied that I am becoming Jean.

PRENE sorry damn spell check. Huggs and kisses.

I feel like the perpetual contrarian in whatever group I'm in, but tucking reminds me continually that I'm a man. That's not a bad thing and I occasionally do a simple tuck just for the sake of variety.

I'm wearing some very fitted bright orange yoga pants right now and it doesn't bother me at all that I can tell I'm man when i look in the mirror. I've worn yoga pants to therapy sessions and typically both tuck and wear tunic length tops to show respect for my female therapist and to keep "everything" under control (although so far that hasn't been an issue). Personally, I think it's odd that I need to hide the fact that I'm a man while yoga pants make it just as obvious for a woman. I love being a man and love my plumbing, but there's no sense of pride nor shame that my manhood might be apparent.

Tucking for me is a very slight manipulation into tight fitting panties. My wife has actually made fun of me for looking like I have a camel toe when I wasn't actually tucked, just in a less up-front presentation. That wasn't the look I was going for but her observation and her laughing really didn't bother me. I just wish she showed any interest at all if I'm not tucked in my yoga pants.
