I have to put something in the message body thing so....
it usually makes me feel worse, because having it there only reminds me that it isn't real, and its not attached, and it has no nerves
I vote others because I dont have a real packer yet,
I want one to see how it will makes me feel, =3
It's helped my dysphoria. Even though it doesn't have sensation, it looks and feels great and is a far cry better IMHO than being flat-crotched.
You guys are crazy! ;D I hadn't any experience of FTM b4 this site. I'm finding myself to be unprejudiced towards you. :laugh:
Other: It makes me feel more comfortable and relieves dysphoria.
Pre T I tried packing but it made me really dysphoric, it brought my attention to that part of my body and it bothered me that my dick had no feeling. Recently I felt the need to pack again so I ordered a packer and now it makes me more comfortable having something there.
Sometimes it helps me feel more comfortable, and other times it makes me feel really dysphoric. Depends, I guess. Right now I wouldn't know as I've lost my dick >.< transguy problems...
I don't think it helps me feel more masculine--I don't always feel or want to feel masculine. I can be feeling really femme but want to pack, for me it's more about body comfort and male-ness as I define it for myself.
More masculine, I guess.
It makes me feel better about my self confidence.
Other, it reduces panic.
I don't pack. I don't wear tight enough clothing for anybody to see whether I'm flat-crotched or not, and I really don't want to be any higher maintenance than I currently am. I don't even wear underwear except for long johns.
The times I've tried it, though, it made me feel more masculine. :)
