What is Tucking?
Tucking refers to the practice of repositioning the genitals (penis and testicles) for a flatter appearance. This can help reduce gender dysphoria, enhance comfort in clothing, and support confident self-presentation.
Important Considerations:
-
Comfort First: Tucking should never be painful. If you experience discomfort, take a break and adjust your technique.
-
Blood Flow: Maintain proper circulation to the genital area. Avoid tight-binding or restrictive materials.
-
Skin Irritation: Moisture buildup can cause irritation. Use breathable fabrics and take breaks from tucking garments.
-
Urination: Ensure garments allow easy access to the restroom. Avoid methods that block or complicate urination.
-
Hygiene: Keep the area clean to prevent infections. Use breathable fabrics and consider anti-fungal powder for moisture control.
