Here's 30 topics that concern tucking.
I found these in less time than it takes to type this out by using the little search box up in the top right corner of every page you open.
It's a quicker way to find some answers than waiting for someone to answer them for you.
There is more information in this forum than you can possibly use.
You could have found these same topics in less time than it took you to type out your question.
I simply used one word, tucking, and there they are.
A little creative use of the search function and ease in which it is available, goes a long ways in educating yourself.
The answers to who what and where are usually just a few keystrokes away.
Why wait around for answers when you can find them faster than you can ask the question?
I know it takes some time and you do seem to have a lot of questions, that is your first place to look for them.
Find out what dysphoria really is by looking at topics and reading peoples opinions.
There is also a wiki with answers to basic questions and more.
Starting a new topic every time you have a question takes up space on the front pages of each section, pushing other topics into the background.
Other people, especially new people coming here look and see nothing but those questions that the answer is right there in that little box or in the right sections that deal with specific questions and topics.
They don't see topics of interest, they see a lot of questions that don't directly pertain to their searches for non-binary related topics.
It's always nice for them to see a greater variety of topics, just like the pinned ones at the top.
They are there for that reason, they are important enough and asked enough times to have a permanent spot there.
It isn't that yours don't belong here, but they are also a part of other sections as well and the answers have already been written for a lot of them.
It also keeps from having to ask repeated questions within topics, when the answer could probably be in that little search box or the wiki.
If it's conversation you're seeking, perhaps start a blog in the blog section.
While it's true that there is a long running couple of topics in this section, a lot of room is left over for different people to post different topics.
Simplify your life by looking for the answer before you start a topic asking for an answer.
Not all topics are questions. Some are open discussions about things that matter to more than one person.
By starting an excess of topics, the discussions are being pushed to the back pages.
While your questions are valid, you'll find much more information for them by simply using the search and wiki features, along with directing the questions to areas that are more specific to your question.
Sometimes it's hard to find the right answer going outside of this section, but there is information that is pertinent to some of your questions.
When asking for help, it is always wise to use the resources at hand before asking others, if you want the best answers.
An informed question will get you an informed answer.
Hang in there, you're getting closer everyday to what you're seeking.

You should stop until you can feel something again, and yes it's not good that it's numb...
It sounds like you did it wrong. It is possible to shut off the blood flow and damage yourself. If it stays totally numb down there you might have cut off the blood supply to the testicles. If the area gets cool to the touch or has any color change that is a true emergency.
