The Womanly Flat Front

[deebra]

Lori I'm glad you got what I was saying, whether or not everyone else did or didn't at least we are on the same page.

Hi Deebra, When I dress a flat front is always important......

[Krisi]

I'll just add that when I am Krisi, I don't want to feel my male parts bouncing around between my legs. I want them gone as much as possible.

Whether I tuck or not - and how I tuck - depends on what I'm wearing. When wearing a long skirt, I often go untucked, just some tight undies to keep everything under control. Most of the time, when I'm wearing jeans, I tuck under, and it looks great. But I have discovered that tucking up, with an extra-firm control panty girdle, really looks good with leggings and yoga pants. Totally looks like nothing's there and the very slight bit of padding it adds to my under belly actually looks quite feminine.

I do not tuck. I just carefully place padding in the right areas.

I don't tuck. I tried it a couple times, but didn't see that much difference. With a girdle on I look like a girl with a larger pubic bone. Saw a news gal the other day with a tight skirt on and she had a larger one than I look like. Always felt left out on the male equipment but became happy when I started CDing. Now that I just were fem cloths and don't try to pass I don't have the need.

I try to tuck all the time in male or female mode. It has just been a little more trouble since I switched to wearing thongs. They just do not get as tight as panties for me.

I try to tuck no matter what I wear. I have taped, use a gaff, or simply tucked.

If I had my rather I'd cut it off but it's there and I hide it as best I can.

I tuck also. I don't want nobody looking at me as a male when I am en femme..

I tuck all the time in both male and female mode. I can't stand the "unsightly bulge."

[HollyGreene]

I don't try to present myself so that people notice. I try to present myself so that people DON'T notice. The idea being that I am convincing enough to blend in to the crowd.
So yes, I tuck, and I have some control underwear that flattens my front. I'm usually pretty successful in that area and it feels good when get it right. It's my upper body, face and neck that I have to concentrate on.

If I am presenting female, I need to be properly tucked and not showing a male bulge, certainly! I don't want them to look at my crotch, but if they do, I definitely don't want them to see something 'wrong' there!

I wouldn't say it is a turn-on, though. Its just part of becoming my feminine self. For me, tucking pretty much flat-lines a physiological 'male response'. I can watch porn while tucked and 'enjoy it', but not react much at all, 'down there'.

I love going out in public as a woman and being perceived as a woman. Being seen without a bulge below the belt is as important to my presentation as being clean shaven or having my breast forms in place is!

I have two different types of gaffs that I use when tucking.

One is a simple thong gaff from Janet's Closet. It does a fine job of hiding 'the boys' and presenting a smooth, flat front.

The other is the Selene gaff- a thong with a latex prosthetic that creates a reasonable 'camel toe' in very close fitting clothes, and that looks pretty realistic as real lady bits behind a see-through thong, if the gaff itself is ever exposed. It also happens to be a bit more comfortable for long-term wear.

So if I am only planning to be out for a short time, and not wearing close-fitting clothes, I wear the Janet's gaff.

If I am wearing tight clothes, or expect to be out all day, or there is a remote possibility i might be seen in just the gaff, I wear the Selene gaff.
