Need New Tucking Method

[devon14]

Hey Everyone,

I have been tucking for almost 6 months now. I've used cloth tape for the longest time which worked quite well for a while but recently I've noticed that it really irritates my skin. Is there a cheap and effective way to tuck that doesn't require paying $100+ for a weeks worth of Gaffs? What I really loved about the tape method is that I could hide my bits in such a way so that I wouldn't see them when going to the bathroom.

Thanks!

Athena

Following.  I want to see what other methods are out there, too.

I like the tube sock method about halfway through this video here.  It's always worked well for me.

I just use the double-panty method, which basically involves wearing a pair of panties that's a size smaller than your normal size, and using that to hold everything in place after you've tucked everything back, and then wear a regular size pair of panties over it.

It's not the most effective method in terms of looking completely empty, and definitely doesn't hide it when you go to the bathroom, but it's very comfortable and very easy.

I've always keep a clean shave and use two pieces of duck tape. Been doing that for almost two years now and works grate for me as long as shave every 2-4 days. Plus it's very cheep.

Cloth tape is way better for your skin than duct tape. A big problem I have is that after my skin started changing, my skin has become easier to irritate. Also, I have always had a problem with ingrown hairs down there, the more I shave, the more ingrown hairs I receive. Less of a problem after HRT but its still an issue so I try not to shave down there too often.

Like this.

I posted a detailed thread on the forum already. A quick search will find it for you

boy shorts a size smaller work perfectly for me

I'll second the tube sock method. Cheap, comfortable, and materials last a long time.

I second this. Double panty method is all I've ever needed. It doesn't look totally flat, but it's comfortable and completely reusable.

Just be sure to wash the sock regularly

the control top from a torn pair of pantyhose works great as a frugal full coverage shapewear/gaffe. I just cut the torn legging part at the mid thigh area, and hold everything in while pulling it up to my waist or underbust. much more comfortable than the tubesock or retail gaffe methods out there. when the leg openings are cut or rolled up just right, it can even be used for binding under a bathing suit, and will make going to the loo so much easier than messing with tape. save the cut leggings for use as a air filter over your computer fan, air vent, etc, OR you can even use them as the skin for makeshift breast forms too if you want them...

After more than two decades of trying many conceivable (and a few inconceivable) methods of getting rid of "it" such as glues, tapes, binders, undersized undies, and even rubber bands and stitches, this is my preferred method.

I wear a comfortable gaff and then I use stiff control panties on top, really flattens everything out and holds well enough for me to take cycling trips, etc.

This is the part of your post I think most everyone is overlooking. There are a number of good tucking methods your can read in detail on this forum and I find it best to vary theme according to what I'm wearing and the situation. However, what you really want to do is not just to hide your genitals the public, but from yourself. That's a tall order and there's probably no really good way to do that consistently. It's not a good idea to wear tape on the same area of skin for more than a few days at a time. I think gaffs are one of the least desirable methods. With any underwear solution you'll still have to pull them down and bring things out it use the bathroom. Pretty much the only good way to do what you really want is to have SRS surgery. Until then, I suggest using one of the clothing solutions and knowing things will be better in the future.

Check the Susan's Wiki for a good tucking method using cut off pantyhose. Doubling up tight fitting panties can work well, too. Many types of control panties hold things well, but it's kind of hit and miss to score the right one for you. Please start experimenting with some of these other methods and limiting your taping to special occasions. Also, only use tape that is designed for use on human skin.

The homemade gaff method rocks.

I just wear a normal pair of knickers,  and the wear a pair of control knickers over the top to hold everything in place it works and is quite comfy xx

This is exactly what I do. For everyday under shorts or pants I do it over my underwear. Also I found some panties at Costco that work well without anything except a panty liner. But if I am really active things will slide out.

Have not found a method to achieve a totally smooth look and it does not stay in place well. Would like to be able to permanently solve the problem with total penectomy, castration, and reroute.

Balls up inside pelvis, penis pulled back between legs and trapped between buttocks, thong pulled tight, boy shorts, then tights!

And all that is the reason I don't tuck unless I really need to any more!

The double pantie method is working really well for me. Thank you for all for your suggestions! I am in the midst of trying to get a job that has an insurance benefit that will cover GRS. Just waiting on their final decision for if they want to hire me or not!
