I would pack, but I'm always around my mother who will without a doubt notice difference. Also, since I live at home I'd probably have to use a sock or something. Just imagining my mom walking into my room and stumbling upon a fake dick... Fun fun fun.

I'll have to agree with you Chamellion.  Tucking isn't optional with the tighter jeans.  Packing though, I think you can choose to go either way, and it won't matter that much (provided you're not wearing pants that leave nothing to the imagination.  Looser is better.).  I certainly don't think you need to pack in order to pass.

And sometimes you might even luck out and get pants that give you a bit of a bulge without any packing required at all.

It probably won't. Usually you can't see anything anyway, especially with men's pants tending to be looser.

I wear Wranglers, I ought to pack except I'm too damn lazy. But I need to get on that problem, and get an STP set up, because being able to pee standing is just too useful.


The way my pants hang, there's a bulge in 'em anyway, I dunno why  but there is one. The thing is, packing means you have a bulge when sitting too.

For the gals here, look up a YouTube comedy skit about "The Tuckers, they live just like you, only tucked" it's pretty funny! Amazing how feminine a guy's lower area looks when the stuff is tucked out of sight.

I guess im the only guy here that wears skinny jeans and girl pants.
:/

But I don't wear them on my waist...

I look, and I notice bulges in some guys and some guys don't show much of anything, but most there's something there. Im an observer.

Most pants make their own bulge, but its up to you if you want to fill it out.

I personally like to pack, it makes me feel whole, and I like the little bulge it gives me. Idk.

You know, I would, and I did pretty recently. But the problem with girl pants is that my legs are more feminine than they used to be ( ) and girl pants don't have pockets lol.

Where else do I keep my wallet? I'm certainly not going to use a purse (man-bag, yeah right.)

Years ago - Saturday Night Fever time- we had a guy come into the ER after falling at a club and twisting his knee. He was wearing really tight jeans and had a very pronounced bulge. He was mortified as his pants were lowered and the rolled up magazine taped to his leg was revelaed. People quietly left the cubicle to have a giggle before coming back to continue work.

Well really, I can't. I just seem to be hurting my back over and over lately and I haven't been able to work out in at least a month. Sick of it but what can you do? I just have to wait it out.

One is I need to get a more effective harness - I am paranoid my dick is moving too much and I'll stand up and it will look like I have wood or worse no longer be in my pants!

Jay, maybe try Tranzwear. It works for me.

I started packing one night a week for my gay men's group. I figured that I'm always checking out their crotches, even if I'm not attracted to the guys, so they might well be checking my crotch. It's somewhat noticeable when a guy sits down, as we do.

Anyway, I noticed that having something there made me feel...more normal, I guess. I packed two nights a week, then three, then all day, then 23.5/7.

I can't seem to stop.

I don't know if the bulge helps me to pass in a purely visual sense. But I think packing helps me to pass psychologically because it makes me feel more "normal" (for lack of a better word), more confident, more like other men. Plus, I walk a little differently. And when I give a guy a ride home and strap on the lap belt, the bulge is clearly visible.

I admit that I'll occasionally check out a guy's package.  Most of the time I'm disappointed that there's nothing much to see. Darn the baggy pants trend!   

I always pack and I know that it helps me pass, I have caught multiple people staring at my crotch area, especially when I go down to the city(I seem to attract gay guys even though I am straight lol) but it mostly just helps me psychologically, if I don't pack I feel and probably look visibly unbalanced.

The way my pants hang, there's a bulge in 'em anyway, I dunno why  but there is one.

I've noticed that, too, with my jeans.  Maybe it's because mens jeans leave a little more room in that area?  The way my jeans fit, that extra jean material bulges out a bit.  Saw a full body picture of myself recently, and I was pleasantly surprised to see how the crotch looks full -- and fortunately, it looked like a "natural full" -- not too much of a bulge.     

It's the zipper.  Men's jeans (and even shorts) have a much longer zipper, and that particular part tends to pop out depending on how you sit or stand, etc.  It can even make it look like you're 'aroused' even when there's nothing going on.  I actually got made fun of at a summer camp once because of that .

Packing gives many people confidence, which can help with passing.  Otherwise, packing will probably only help you pass when in the presence of perverts.  Personally, I dislike having an unsightly bulge, so even if I had an actual penis, I would tuck when wearing tight pants (i.e. most of my pants).

I don't know if it helps me pass, but it helps my dysphoria greatly and feels natural and right. I feel weird and empty without it. That's enough for me!

For the record- women do check guys out there. Alot. They've admitted it to me. Gay guys probably do to- if not even more.

Now I feel like a very proper, well-mannered boy.  I am NOT one of those naughty gay guys.  Ha ha, just kidding, I devour the rest of the man with my eyes, but ogling genitalia just seems creepy, even though it's no worse than anything else.

I doubt anyone would ever notice.. do what feels good for yourself.

actually I have noticed that I walk better when packing, if the packer is secure. It's a more crotchy(*) walk, more masculine.

(*) crotchy is an accepted word in my personal dictionary.
