Tucking: How to hide your penis safely and effectively?

It doesn't matter if we are a pre-op trans woman, a non-binary person with a penis, or someone else: If we have a penis or testicles that bother us, but we don't want or can't get rid of them (at least for now), there is a solution.

It's called tucking, which essentially describes what is done with the genitals using this technique: they are hidden so they are not visible under clothing. This can help alleviate gender dysphoria.

There are various aids you can use:

• Tuck tapes: Tapes or strips that come in rolls, and you cut off the desired length. You can choose from two widths (7.5 and 10 cm) and three color variants (nude, purple, and black).
• Discrete TuckKit: Individually wrapped and pre-cut adhesive patches that you just stick on. The shape is carefully tested and refined, and they also contain a protective non-adhesive layer to protect the delicate skin of your genitals. They are ready to use.
• Tucking underwear: Underwear designed with the desired flattening in mind. You can choose from a range of cuts, such as thongs and hipsters. We've got your back even at the beach! With these bikini bottoms. You can freely combine the underwear with tape or a TuckKit.

Which one is better? We'll have to try it out for ourselves.

So, how is tucking performed?

1. Prepare your tucking tools. You'll definitely need tape and underwear, but you can also use a penis sleeve or an antifungal cream to apply to it to avoid contact with the anus. It's best to urinate beforehand if you plan to use tape, because if you go to the toilet, you'll have to remove it. A TuckKit can handle several re-applications easily.
2. Push the testicles into the inguinal canal and the penis and scrotum towards the buttocks. You can do this with two or three fingers. This step should not be painful; however, if you feel pain, stop immediately and return to tucking later. Another option is to push the testicles to the sides.
3. Put on your tucking underwear or apply the tape. If you are using tape, start from the base of the penis and continue up to the top of the buttocks. Then use two more tapes, but these will go to the left and right sides of the buttocks. After you've put it on, you can wear additional layers of clothing – no additional underwear is needed. However, some people find it comfortable to combine tape with tucking underwear or regular ready-to-wear underwear.

While wearing tucking underwear or tape, do not avoid urinating. Holding it in can have a negative impact on your health. Take a break from tucking after eight to twelve hours and always when sleeping. Long-term tucking can damage blood flow. Protect your health!
