That's correct. Hardly any padding (I've got a killer girl body and a rather unimpressive boy body). I also noticed that if I 'tucked' too hard it pulls the skin too tight and feels like I'm crushing things. :confused2: Or course I don't leave it like that.

As far as clothes go, I walked around work yesterday for about an hour and gave it a test run. With regular pants on nothing is visible. But this morning I tried on a pair of spandex shorts... plenty to see. I'm thinking I'll need to add some type of padding to smooth things out.

Other than that, I'm pretty impressed with how everything looks and feels. It's pretty nice to sit down without having to worry about sitting on the boys.

As far as 'fitting in the cavity' is concerned I guess it's possible. I really am pretty thin (6 feet 145 pounds) and the boys really are quite large (I think Sex and the City termed it as a 'low hanger'.) But it also wouldn't surprise me if I'm doing it correctly but will still have bumps. :thinking:

I think some more experimenting is needed. I am 5' 10" at 160 with no bumps, several years ago I was at 135 and no bumps. I can understand that if tucking is done properly but not tighly on a thin body that they could be bumps so perhaps that is the problem, otherwise I do not know but good luck.

This will sound horrible as there's no polite way to put it, but I'd like to know how drag-queens and some of the others I've seen pictures are able to wear tiny tiny panties with almost no bulge anywhere, presumably without taping. I can get things pretty well hidden if I tape, but no where near the way they can.

I've tried and I just can't seem to tuck. I can't work out where my testicles should go! I push them up, but they just don't seem to want to go anywhere. It's really frustrating, because I want to wear leggings without a bulge! I know this is a bit wierd, but does anyone know of anywhere there are pictures or a video of someone actually tucking? I think seeing someone else do it might be the only way I can work out how...

Pretty much everyone begins this way. Keep trying to work the boys under the pelvic bone, it takes lots of practice in the beginning. If it was easy this thread would not be so long :)

Under the pelvic bone?!?? I thought they rested just on top of the pelvic bone.

Under? the pelvic bone?

not sure I follow.

Yea, I too wonder about that. I've been to a drag show in NYC called Lucky Chen's. They have drag queens in the skimpiest bikini ever! I wonder where they hide it, and how the manage to hide it so well. Then again it was pretty dimly lit. So that might play to their advantages from being so obvious.

I've tried tucking a few times, found a few technique, with taping to create a more passable shape up front. But I always have the two bumps, and it looks like I'm wearing cups underneath my panties.. Maybe I need to buy a size larger..

Hi I have been practicing tucking and can manage to get thee testicles uo in place but as I have a small penis it is hard to get it to stay inplace as it creeps forward and the boys fall back out. Perhaps I need to tape as well. Any suggestions would be appreciated

You most likely need some kind of tape or way to keep things in place. There are lots of ideas on here and other places.

If the moderators think this should be removed, please do so....

My take on tucking is that it's always easier when the boy is...well...a bit excited, i.e. a bit on the larger side of the scale.

nuf said.

tina

you must have some support when tucking it makes it easier, untill you have to
go to the bathroom (ouch) what we do?

Perhaps it is trade secrets similar to magicians are apprentices to a seasoned magician. Yet it seems like this thread should have covered all the bases who know?

I haven't tried tucking yet.

All of those trying out different techniques should realize that we're not all built the same, much like GGs. What works for me, or someone else, might not work for you. In a "relaxed" state I have little of no problem tucking. I don't actually insert the testicles into the body cavity. I find I'm much more comfortable if I just tuck the penis down and under. Even naked that looks pretty good. Usually I wear a thong or gaff over that. It keeps things smooth, in place, and gives a little definition to my rear.

I once read parts of a book about circus performers. One part that caught my eye was about the strippers. Many of them were born men. Now this was in the 20's and 30's so not much help was available to them surgically. They injected parafin into their breasts to enlarge those. What they wore down below was pretty simple. They would loop an elastic or string around the head of their penis. Then they pulled it under and around. They had a loop going around their waist that this was attatched to. The only part of their costume that was not removed when they stripped was sort of a reverse g-string. It didn't cover the front, that was what they paying pubic had come to see.:devil: But it did cover underneath and in back so that the tuck, or anything else, wasn't visible. It does look quite realistic with the loose skin of the scrotum creating a bit of a slit where the penis is pulled tight down the middle.

Find what works, and is comfortable for you. You might find that certain styles of clothing just don't work for you. That's one of the things about being a women, you need to learn what makes you look your best and avoid things that don't.

I apologize if this has been covered before in this thread.

I'm trying to get my own style of tucking down pat. Felicity, your tutorial has been very helpful, and works great as long as I'm totally soft.

I've a lot larger than average down stairs and on top of that also very sensitive. Every step I take makes him bigger. Next thing I know a pretty good flat tuck goes to well an uncomfortable mess.

I'm trying to stop this from happening by preparing myself mentally but its still next to impossible. I don't do it often but I noticed that taking a caffeine pill not only reduces sensitivity down there but also makes him shrink up witch makes tucking a breeze. Unfortunately my body is very sensitive to caffeine and I get too wired lol.

Are there any herbal supplements or other safe OTC drugs out there that might be beneficial?

Have you considered wearing a condom catheter, or maybe even just a condom? Either would provide an insulated layer. If you applied it, then did other things (makeup, etc) and came back to it once things had settled down, it might work better.

Which condom catheter do you use?

There are a lot of condom catheters out there. I think I have found the best one. It does not have any glue and it is not the Texas catheter.

The ones with glue when tucked and taped for a long period of time seem to hurt after a while as you can feel the glue pulling on you which sometimes even hurts.

I tuck both ways, pushing the boys up and then pulling everything back and taped in place, as well as pushing the boys up and making a tube out of the skin and pushing everything inside.

I do have a link to the website where I found these and they are also cheap in price. One the website they are called The Natural External Catheter. They come in a pack of 30 for $29.95.

Ask me for the link and I will send it to you. The store is called Allegro Medical.

I had never taped up in the past - (under the chest to achieve some cleavage) but have been experimenting lately. Well 2 weeks ago, I had my chance. I found some white tape that is not as sticky as medical tape and it seemed to be just right as it was just sticky enough to not let loose. Well I tried it for a couple of days for short periods and it worked great. Then one day, I left the tape on for 6 hours. What a BIG MISTAKE. It got a little sore but I didn't think much about it - that is until I took it off. Tape and skin came off together and what was left was very, very sore - similar to a 2nd degree burn. It bled and drained for 2 days and is now starting to heal.
A word of caution for all the gurls. Don't leave the tape on very long - it may not come off very easy.
I have since found the Chic Shaper and it works almost as well as the tape with no latent pain. BTW - for those of you that can't find the chic shaper, go back to Walgreens and look for a sign or shelf that says "as seen on TV". I looked for it around the bras and cosmetics at several stores to no avail - then I saw the sign "as seen on tv" and there it was. Double checked the first stores - all had it in the "as seen on tv" shelf.
Good luck,
Sheri

It really depends what tape you use, and how sensitive your skin is. I've tried a ton of different medical tapes, even tried athletic tape (that athletes use to tape their fingers / wrists, etc). Right now my favourite is NextCare gentle paper.

I've also found that a lot of the irritation is caused by the removal of the tape after it's been stuck in place for so long. Soaking in a hot bath first, or a hot shower seems to help the adhesive release. I've also used dermaplast spray it has a pain reliever in it -- the hospital gave some to my wife to use after child birth to help with the irritation.

I'm currently wearing one as a gaff myself.. I'm now a convert!!

I've tried to tuck a few times but i can the 'boys' up there but if try to get my penis back they pop straight back out, then it gets very uncomfortable. The chic shaper method is heaps easier, more comfortable (not saying that it's the be all either though, it still has it's flaws) and the end result is a flat front.... Perfect for tighter skirts and with leggings!!

Must've been the wrong tape. I pretty much only untape to shower. I use 3M Transpore and I've had no irritation from it ever.

Yes, I am aware I have body "issues"...

Rachel, you use a chick shaper to tuck the boys away? I thought it was used for breast cleavage, hummm, interesting could you explain how you go about this

I know how to tuck the boys up in and pull the other guy down between. I've worked with tape and IV tape (like in that Japanese tucking pictorial). I've got plenty of skin to come up and wrap around. It all makes a very nice effect. The problem I have is that my boys are fairly large AND I'm fairly skinny. (I posted about this before in here. I'm not bragging about either. Just explaining my issues). This results in two fairly obvious bumps on the front of my body. I just don't have that much adipose tissue over my pubic bone region to 'hide' the boys. Not to mention that it is somewhat painful for me if I tuck too tightly or when I sit down.

Pulling everything down and tucking/taping makes a GREAT front but a horrible back (a la Lois Einhorn from Ace Ventura). So I started thinking and experimenting and after a few weeks, I think I found a way. I'll do my best to explain.

First, while in full hangin free mode, I wrap a piece of tape around the base of the penis and scrotum. The tightness needs to be enough that neither testicle would be able to fit through but not so tight as to cut off circulation. Because, instead of pushing the boys up, I line them up and stack the other guy on top. So if you think about pulling the penis down for the tuck, it's the same thing, except that the penis is now resting on the lined up testicles. Once that is pulled that down take the skin at the base of the scrotum and wrap that up and around the base of the penis and tape that. (This is also where I use the IV skin covering thing. It's clear and the overlapping scrotal skin looks very vagina-like.) From there, you can continue to wrap and tape on down. For me, the lowest hanger is a bit past the tip. I wrap most of it but make sure I can still see the end so that I can pee when I need to.

I use one piece of tape to wrap around the entire testicle-penis unit and place it right in between the testicles. This keeps them in line better. Otherwise, the higher one will want to scoot down and be beside his buddy.

Once everything is taped, when you stand up, everything should still hang free but just as one unit. Because everything hangs relatively far away from my body, when I pull some underwear on, I don't need a hard pull to make a flat front. Underwear up, then a gentle push or pull back seems to be sufficient.

I've had this tucked like this for the last two hours and I have no major complaints. Sitting is easy. And since the testicles are lined up and flush on the perineum I'm not sitting on them. No issues with crossing legs. Pulling underwear down/off and back on is very easy and everything gets right back to where it belongs. I took some pictures to check out the look. I give it a solid B. It's not perfect but it also doesn't look like I've got a bad case of hemorrhoids. :heehee: The trick is to make sure you don't pull things back too far. (Or to put it another way... if everything were taped in place, you should be able to handle any bathroom issue you might have ;).

This probably isn't clear at all. As with most of this stuff, it is an art-form (hence the title of the thread). But if you have any of the same issues I have you might give this a try. Or feel free to PM me for specific questions.
