    So yeah. I looked up how to tuck and I've started tucking even tho I'm still wearing male clothing / being a male in public. I'm using spandex right now and not using tape at all, which works perfectly with what I'm wearing anyway.

    And I feel absolutely ENERGIZED in public. I don't know if its because that.... stuff... isn't in the way, or because I maybe feel a little less dysphoria but I absolutely LOVE IT.(!)

    Yeah, I have sensitive balls so it will be tricky for me, I use to tuck a lot when I was younger, like 14-16

    Yeah I read A TON before I finally made the attempt. It honestly takes a while.

    Definitely don't rush XD. If you feel ANY pain restart.

    Eventually it all kind of, settles. I don't feel anything but freedom XD. Obivously the testicle/ cavity thing takes a little bit before that 'odd' feeling goes away.

    My experience was similar to yours. As soon as I worked out how to do it, it just absolutely felt 100% right, and I've continued to tuck (and wear a lightweight sports bra) every day under my otherwise-male wardrobe.

    Like I say, it simply feels "right" and is somehow soothing to me.

    FWIW, I use the basic two-layers-of-spandex technique. Never have felt the need to play around with tape.

    Just one layer of a sort of boxer/ brief style of spandex is what I'm wearing. Seems like a gaff would be easy to make, and considering all the other cloth I've made so far it kind of makes sense XD

    I tend to use the home made sock and pantyhose waistband gaff method of tucking, invisible under most things, even thongs (as long as they're not the teeny tiny G-string kind). Took some getting used to, used to keep slipping down until I saw a tip on youtube about keeping it in place with, of all things, a tab thingie from a loaf of bread.

    When I'm not feeling that fancy, I usually just wear boyshort-cut undies, they tend to keep things in check as well.
