Packing (because I had to say it somewhere)

    So, today marked the first day I've added packing to my presentation.

    Felt great, even though my packer was a rolled up sock and scrunchie. I mean, stupid as this sounds, it was probably the first time in a while I felt like I could own the world- felt a little more male, me with what amounted to a small boxer bulge.

    It basically came on a whim. The night before, I'd started getting really dysphoric. So I made the packer, stuffed it in, and to my surprise, it actually helped considering it was (again), a fucking sock in my boxers.

    So just carried it over into my usual presentation. And besides maybe a couple times when I worried it had shifted too far or looked obvious, it stayed in place without problem.

    So yeah. Anyone else notice packing making a difference?

    I'm glad it felt good!

    I found using breast forms felt good for a while, now I'm not so big on them. I think part of the problem was as you noted, if it's not attached to you it has a tendency to move about a lot! This tended to make me look bad and now I don't wear them except when I really feel bad without any boobs!

    Yeah, definitely did. Only problem's that it doesn't feel real, but hoping to either get a real one or make a better one soon. (and probably latter- I don't want to have something like a packer shipped to the house and have it be stumbled upon).

    But yeah. It's like you've got to superglue that shit on, lol.

    Ahh, the fun of a sock-cock. (My trans* friends and I joke around that this is a FtM right of passage..lol)

    It does feel good to have something there. It sucks though when it keeps rolling up, or when you can't get the placement just right. Having a real packer is so nice, and I also have an actual strap to hold it on (because working in sports production, it would just fall out if I did not have anything holding it in...)

    I know that there are a lot of templates online for making a homemade packer. So, you could always try to find some of those. I've only made the sock ones before, so I don't know what works well.

    Yeah, totally is, lol. I did the sock thing for a few months prior at home- took me a while before it looked like a human shaped bulge. Hoping to get a real packer as soon as its possible. Found a pretty good at-home packer that uses hair gel and a condom.

    I dunno. What's a good recommendation?

    Personally I'd avoid homemade stuff unless you're really confident with your craft abilities. Last thing I'd want is the thing to split and get hairgel all over my crotch...

    I've thought about trying that but I have this (irrational?) fear that it would be really slippery and fall out of my pants leg and roll away awkwardly, and then I'd need to explain where that blue (because for some reason I always imagine it would be blue, don't ask) condom sausage came from, and of course it would happen at some really inopportune moment like in front of my grandmother or while standing in a queue at the store. But maybe that's irrational and it's probably just me.

    Yeah, true, lol. I've got a few condoms lying around (and probably won't have any use for any time soon) so as long as they're unlubed, they'll work. Might have to double bag that shit

    looooool about "craft abilities" You just made my day.

    Edit: WHOLE the thread is great, lol. Thank you for keeping it light, even though the theme is serious.

    Yeah, whole comic's great, really recommend you give it a look. It's whatsnormalanyway.net

    Comic ended a few weeks back though but it's one the better trans comics out there. Based partly on the experiences of the author, who's a 'non-traditional' transguy like me (grew up feminine, didn't feel trans until puberty, etc).

    But yeah. Glad you're liking it, Nick. :slight_smile:

    You gotta take things lightly in life I think, even the serious things.

    WNA is fantastic. I wish it didn't end so abruptly.

    Believe me. I've got a sock for a dick. I've gotta laugh at some things. :lol:

    Seriously hope Morgan brings it back. Ended too soon.

    And on another note, you know how they say guys think with their dicks? I can kinda believe it. I know it's really stupid but I've gotten oddly proud of the stupid little thing.

    I can honestly say I never understood that comment ... But them I'm really not a guy, am I?

    Anyway, wouldn't it be kinda cool if we could just s swap parts with someone else? I'll have your boobs, you can have my weiner.

    That would be wonderful wouldn't it? I've heard it refurred to as Mr. Potato head parts by some people before.
