So it is summer and the pools are opening here.. and I don't want to wait years until I go in one..

How can you hide that ugly tumor?.. I read about tucking but as I was born in Israel circumcision seems to prevent me from being able to do that.. yuck..

What to do? suggestions?


I so want an axe...

I am also circumcised and I tuck.  You might try the tape method or even a gaff.  https://www.susans.org/wiki/Tucking

It can be done even though you have been mutilated.

mutilated? having that tumor is being mutilated.. getting rid of it is .. going to happen..

I tried tape.. failed badly.. going to rid that site.

Didn't find a gaff anywhere in israel

I know how you feel Myself.

Never worked for me either.

But happy it does for some.

Before I had my op, I made sure that I had a tight fitting bottom, and just "tucked." If you wear a sarong, you shouldn't have any issue, even if you get wet.

Hi,

Yeah, it is possible, I wear a bikini to the pool and seaside. A sarong is a good thing and I wear one with my bikini (but not while swimming, lol). Tucking one's self is possible and you need bikini bottoms that are a little bigger than your size and tie at the sides, that way you can tuck and tie it tight and nothing moves. At least it doesn't for me.

Maybe, rather then wearing bikini bottoms, you should have your bikini bottoms on underneath a pair of swimmer shorts, and still have your bikini top on.

Lots of girls do this, and it wont make your bulge as noticeable.

FYI: While you think of it as a tumor, (I did myself) that makes you build up even more of a resentment and hatred for it to the point that you might even attempt self harm in that area (I know it got to that stage for me) that is until I saw my Psychiatrist who actually blatantly laid it all out to me. That thing between your legs is not a male bit, nor is it a tumor or a growth, it is a vagina that is out of it's natural shape. While you hate it now, when it is in it's natural shape, you will love it. When I start to get anxious about it, or disgusted, or start to think about attacking that area, I stop, and repeat to myself, over and over, that it is a vagina, it's just not in it's right shape. Only 10.5 more months until it is.

well said.. same for my chest.. i hate them.. and sometimes I want to cut them, but I don't becuase I know that I need the skin for later when I get chest reconstruction.

also.. i dunno if these are still in fashion, but dont they make bikinis with little skirts around the crotch?

how does being circumcised prevent tucking?

It doesn't really I was circumsized but I use toilet paper to cover the tip where its sensitive, I tried without it and that was the worst pain in my whole life so far.

When tucking you would be able to grab or grip the extra skin that covers the top of the penis, this allows you to pull backwards between the checks of your bum with one hand and then with the other you would be able to pull up the item of clothing needed to keep it in place.

Grabbing on to the tip I would presume would be more awkward and possibly sensitive if one has been circumcised.  I would assume in this case as to why some would use the tape method to pull it back.  (Would this be true, someone?)

Kind regards

Perhaps I'm a freak of nature, but my glans is the least sensitive part of my genitals.
I mean, if a circumcised glans is that sensitive, how would you be able to wear clothing?

No you're not, ƃuıxǝʌ.  I am the same way, which makes me wonder if they use it for the clitoris, will I have feeling there?

I'm circumcised and tuck 24/7. I don't understand the problem? I thought the surgeons used that sensitive bit under the glans for the clit? For me it's the only sensitive part of my vagina (thanks for that comment Sarahm, very helpful for me). This might be too much information but I keep the entire area clean shaven, which I think helps with tucking as your panties are in contact with your skin. Also if you cannot find a gaf, just buy a panty girdle. Lots of girls wear them. I was amazed to find them in size 10 here. If you don't recognise them they are usually beige in colour. and tight elastic fitting. They are meant to stop your 'belly' protruding.  If you still don't recognise them you need to spend some quality shopping time, nothing like lingerie shopping to keep a girl happy. But then again I bought another pair of boots today.

Tucking is really uncomfortable. Does it get more comfortable as I do it more often? It really only hurts a little when I sit but idk. Maybe i need to get used to it lol

The glans after circumscision is insensitive simply because it dries out. It was never intended to be continually exposed. That's why male mammals are given foreskins.

Sorry but to get back to basics, Sorry again, the little bit of skin that appears to be twisted together just below the 'cock' is the only area that has any sensation. I know I am touching  the external vagina but it does not feel any different to touching my arm. I'm odd?

Yea I know I am

I'm not circumcised.

I really am pleased to hear it.

Circumscision, other than for absolute medical necessity, it a barbarac practice.

My answer to the pool issue has been quite simple. Don't go. Sure it gets warm and you want to enjoy the season but I avoid the pool at all costs. The beach too. Not very practical advice I'm sure, but I figured I'd throw all the options out there Meghan

I agree with Meghan about avoiding the beach and pool until post op.  I went 4 years without swimming.  It's doable.

If you are really comfortable tucking and know you can pull it off, that's different.  But if you are not sure how to do it, that's a bad scene waiting to happen.

As far as the sensation after surgery, I was surprised.  It's almost like the nerve is like an electrical wire, and cutting off a bit of it just creates a new nerve ending for snugglesnarfing.  And that new nerve ending grows into some of the surrounding tissue too.  But I hear that a lot depends on your surgeon.  Mine's retired.

Not to mention that you're going to tan and pre-age your skin! Yikes!!!
