I thought the best way to tuck for a bikini is with duck tape, but it's just coming off, probably because of your body hydration/moisturisation and sweating processes... What do I do? I could try to tuck for a bikini, but what's strong enough that it won't come off? I can handle a bit of pain when removing it.

Thanks everyone

Just get a few swim dresses! Then you can be worry and discomfort free. I tried the tape route years ago prehrt and I hated the discomfort. Now that things have shrunken down there, I think I could get away with a bikini bottom now but I still wouldn't do it, too paranoid.

Yeah, I don't get it either.. I've got some 3M Medipore and it's done the trick just fine the few times I've bothered.

Pre SRS I would buy bulk and take everyday, got it down so well I could do it in seconds, tight enough to hold in place & loose enough to pee.

I've heard horror stories about duct tape taking skin off with it when removed.  I don't recommend it.

When I had cojones, I used a 6 inch strip of 3 inch 3M durapore surgical cloth tape with a 2 inch slit down the middle to pee through.

Grace, there are companies that manufacture duct tape that have it spelled 'duck' right on the package, complete with a picture of a duck.   :)  Dani

Yeah, that's what I mean - I had no idea duct tape was once called duck tape, interesting historical lesson! ;D

Nah, it's always been used for HVAC ducts.  Duck tape is just a cute marketing gimmick. *quack*

How well does sport strapping hold without coming off?

Thanks everyone for posting, I appreciate everyone's effort :)

It's a actually a medical tape.. And worked well enough for me.

Did you just basically shove your private bits under your crotch, put a tape over it and it didn't come off regardless of sweating? Or did you tuck in a different way?

I don't remember exactly what I did, as I was following a guide.. I only did it 3 times - once including a quick swim. For the most part, I simply don't bother.

For me it never came off unless I pulled it off.

I found it was best to go to a local sporting club and see what brands they were using.
Remembering that men sweat and when they play sport they sweat a lot.
I was able to swim (I did wear shorts pre op) and nothing would unstuck down thwre

I have found the Transpore transparent medical tape from the grocery store to be quite water resistant.

The WWII origin of "duck tape" is historically accurate. And of course it's always a lot of fun to correct a guy who's very insistent in correcting your pronunciation.

I'm a size 10 waist fit for women's size but I buy women's size 8 swimwear bottoms usually with a wider crotch that holds it back and them up without taping. And when wearing skirts leggings or tight pants it's all flat the way it should be
