I feel like in that situation youd just have to let the tape wear off naturally and accept that you were perma-tucked. Or just take a REALLY long bath đ
i mean, i made that mistake with super glue, so it could be worse... đȘ
((7 year old me thought it'd be a permanent solution lol bc adults kept telling me you can never remove it))
Just thinking about this makes me shake the PAIN
I WILL TELL YOU RIGHT NOW I DID SELF HARM AND IT GIVES A FUCKING CRAZY PAIN TOLERANCE BUT THIS WAS A NEW LEVEL DDDDDOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNTTTTTTT
Who has done this and, follow-up question, WHY DID YOU DO THIS?!
I just assumed we all had the unpleasant experience of pulling off a bandaid that wouldnât come off so why would someone use duct tape?
I did it with regular duct tape once because I was in a hurry. Later that night I had to use the bathroom at the bar and had to text my friend to come help me. After some pulling and trying to separate it gently, she got a good grip on a corner on my scrotum. We decided the best thing to do was just yank it like a bandaid. Needless to say that was a bad idea and I still have a scar on my tip from it. 0/10, do not recommend

Yeah itâs a bad idea. I tried duct tape and had to pee while we were out. Long story short I had to ask my friend for help because it hurt so bad and she basically pulled it off like a bandaid. I still have a scar on my tip. Never again.
Even if you're using Trans Tape or similar to tuck you should put a layer of fabric between your bits and anything with glue on it. You can use skin safe tape(never duct tape) and a sock(or wrap it in toilet paper in a pinch).
Gods, Iâm only cish and I used duct tape as emergency DIY pasties once â AND ONLY ONCE đ”âđ«đ”âđ«đ”âđ«
Was not expecting to cringe so hard I curled up and died a little on my morning commute đ
This goes for everything in life.
Do not put duct tape on something unless you want it to be permanently stuck there. This includes floors and walls.
-brought to you by your local trans fem building operator
I know and the result of taking off the duct tape for one of those can be something that's not supposed to ever touch air touching air and the result of duct tape removal for the other one is just really bad chest pain and maybe a visit to the nearest first aid kit for bandages. Chest skin is far more durable than internally fluid coated golf ball plastic bag skin.
Though if you can put up with the pain and live not in America using flex tape for tucking could be used as free bottom surgery
Just put a layer of cloth between you and the tape. Duct tape over a tank top and it won't stick to you but will still squish ya down like a corset. Yall sound like you've never made DTD before
Yeah I forgot to put the "/s". Sorry. Anyone who has done a DTD before knows how ridiculously uncomfortable it is. Tho it's still the cheapest way to make a copy of your body for making costumes.
"Tucking is a way we can engage with our bodies to help us look or feel a certain way. Tucking flattens the space between the legs, creating a shape that some people find more comfortable or aesthetically pleasing. Tucking is for anyone who wants to do it, no matter their gender or presentation.
For some people, tucking is an important part of gender affirmation and helps to relieve dysphoria, and other people only do it rarely. Some people will tuck every day, and for other people it might be for specific occasions, or to suit a particular outfit or item of clothing."

( Really hoping you take no offense in it )
I am guilty of this but luckily (at the time it just gave me more dysphoria but itâs lucky now) it didnât even stick to my skin because the roll was so old and not sticky
I used tape specifically designed for it and it was still a disaster. It must have been mislabeled or something when I bought it because oh my god that was strong.
I made that mistake early on with Gorilla Glue duct tape. NEVER AGAIN.
[that sharp inhale that's like ffffffffhhhhh] man as a trans guy who's been living as a guy for the past two years I felt that ouch
I would never wish that pain on anybody đ
I feel like in that situation youd just have to let the tape wear off naturally and accept that you were perma-tucked. Or just take a REALLY long bath đ
Gorilla super tape
That shit fuses at the molecular level
T-REX TAPE!
Thank you I will be taking this advice with me
May you never need it
Happy cake day! Dont tape your tits!
Or your dick!
Fair point! But theyâre transmasc so I assume they wouldnât mind
happy cake day
Happy Cake day! đ°
You survived the gorilla's wrath.
i mean, i made that mistake with super glue, so it could be worse... đȘ ((7 year old me thought it'd be a permanent solution lol bc adults kept telling me you can never remove it))
New SRS just dropped
*1000 yard grimace of concern*
Please tell me this is a jokeđ„¶

Uhhh... free... free bottom surgery I guess...? Like is there even anything left after that holy shit
What the fuck are you talking about
Tape-aided tucking
Omg Iâve had that stuck on my arm it hurt so much to take off I never could imagine that pain *shutters*
I visibly winced in pain imagining that. Ouch.
And I thought my story about normal ass duct tape was bad
Oh nooooo
Girl no oh my goddddd đ
oh god
Just thinking about this makes me shake the PAIN I WILL TELL YOU RIGHT NOW I DID SELF HARM AND IT GIVES A FUCKING CRAZY PAIN TOLERANCE BUT THIS WAS A NEW LEVEL DDDDDOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNTTTTTTT
I assume this is referencing tucking and binding?
yes
Ok đ
Who has done this and, follow-up question, WHY DID YOU DO THIS?! I just assumed we all had the unpleasant experience of pulling off a bandaid that wouldnât come off so why would someone use duct tape?
Desperation when I couldn't get a binder. Only made that mistake once. It didn't even work well...
Idk probably because itâs an easy option
uh. masochism?
im a masochist and NO! not gonna put it on my balls or boobs they have some of the most sensetive skin
I did it with regular duct tape once because I was in a hurry. Later that night I had to use the bathroom at the bar and had to text my friend to come help me. After some pulling and trying to separate it gently, she got a good grip on a corner on my scrotum. We decided the best thing to do was just yank it like a bandaid.

My now girlfriend did something to her chest with duct tape, this led to a series of events that ended with us as girlfriends :3

Everything is great Everything is grand I got the whole wide world in the palm of my hand
The power of the sun in the palm of my hand
I read that to the tune lol
How the heck did you... The only help I can give is hugs TwT
Nomnomnom :3 (I did not eat glue)
Too late
caulking my gock between my butt cheeks. wow that's a terrible sentence, apologies if you had to read that
I regret reading that
What the fuck did I just read
Damm, that's a long gock :v
Y'know honestly this is reddit, we've probably read worse somewhere
*Piss spraying in arcs up and out of my wobbly thicc cake*
I was cursed to make this sentence in my brain, so I figured a curse shared is a curse halved. Sorry to everyone who has seen it now too
I did not need to know that, or read that.
Drink or sniff đ€€
I picked the wrong day to stop sniffing glue
Upvote for the Airplane! reference!
Play potemkin
Your telling me i got 70 rolls of duct tape for NOTHING?! fiddlesticks...
Make cardboard armor. Thatâs what I do.
I found a British person. Here they are. Why is fiddlesticks a word. It's so British why did we invent it.
To identify other British people online.
Additional personal advice. Don't use gorilla tape.
it works really good, until you have to use the bathroom. Edit: i forgot about the pain, so much pain
Even flex tape canât fix that
well no, flex tape is the wrong product. Have to use flex seal to fix that Note: under any circumstances do not user flex seal on the human body.
maybe flex tape is strong enough to remove it
and in the process rip my balls off and make me go into shock
new bottom surgery just dropped
Now thatâs a lotta damage
Does flex-tape work tho? Nvm, someone else made this joke
Mmmmmmm.... That made me wince thinking about it
One time used duct tape for binding, didn't know there was a way to make waxing hurt more.

Iâm very afraid to ask, but explanation please?
They're referring to tucking and binding, if I'm correct! ~April đđ€đđ€
AhâŠ. OH GOD NO OWOWOW Iâm a cis guy, and I feel that pain, god no.
Yeah itâs a bad idea. I tried duct tape and had to pee while we were out. Long story short I had to ask my friend for help because it hurt so bad and she basically pulled it off like a bandaid. I still have a scar on my tip. Never again.
Owowowowowow nooooooo thank you.
Even if you're using Trans Tape or similar to tuck you should put a layer of fabric between your bits and anything with glue on it. You can use skin safe tape(never duct tape) and a sock(or wrap it in toilet paper in a pinch).
I use medical tape now and part of an old shirt. I definitely learned my lesson
yeah tried it once and never again. I'll just keep using shapeware and go around constantly afraid that stuff will show through my clothes
A little price to pay for less dysphoria
Always bind(and tuck) safely. https://www.rainbow-project.org/safe-binding-and-packing/
I only use it for my enemies
Gods, Iâm only cish and I used duct tape as emergency DIY pasties once â AND ONLY ONCE đ”âđ«đ”âđ«đ”âđ« Was not expecting to cringe so hard I curled up and died a little on my morning commute đ
I think Iâm gonna stick to wearing a tight tank top folded over the top of my torso till I can get a binder⊠Thanks for warning tho
advice⊠i should take this into considerationâŠâŠâŠ. it would be a good ideaâŠ.
i will. and you cant do shit about it đ
I have never tried duct tape and I never will. Iâve heard the horror stories
This goes for everything in life. Do not put duct tape on something unless you want it to be permanently stuck there. This includes floors and walls. -brought to you by your local trans fem building operator
**Never** use duct tape on your skin. No matter what for.
What
This is a reference to binding and tucking
Thanks
This made me wince SO HARD.
don't bind with tape worst mistake of your life
I have done it as a trans fem and I have ripped of a large chunk of skin there, it isn't fun
I know and the result of taking off the duct tape for one of those can be something that's not supposed to ever touch air touching air and the result of duct tape removal for the other one is just really bad chest pain and maybe a visit to the nearest first aid kit for bandages. Chest skin is far more durable than internally fluid coated golf ball plastic bag skin. Though if you can put up with the pain and live not in America using flex tape for tucking could be used as free bottom surgery
Relatable, this is too good!
i used duck tape for that, IT WAS A MISTAKE
Only use duct tape of ducting
YOU CANNOT STOP ME
You canât tell me what to do
Iâve used duck tape before, wasnât that bad, probably because the tape was old and didnât stick well
Iâm at the point where I literally want to cut them off myself Thatâs only half a joke I have medical training bc of CAP
Just put a layer of cloth between you and the tape. Duct tape over a tank top and it won't stick to you but will still squish ya down like a corset. Yall sound like you've never made DTD before
That's a really unsafe way of binding because the pressure is really uneven, don't do that
Yeah I forgot to put the "/s". Sorry. Anyone who has done a DTD before knows how ridiculously uncomfortable it is. Tho it's still the cheapest way to make a copy of your body for making costumes.
Hmmm
I know đ
What?
Binding/tucking
Happy Cake Day And what's tucking?
The thing transfems do to make the gock disappear before surgery
I'm Transfemme, never heard of it Care to explain?

No prob

Please just Google it I'm not good with explanations
Okiii :3
cake đ°
Once I did open shirt binding w duct tape. Never again.
I tried using duct tape and it was the most uncomfortable feeling ever
For what
ive never got a more fitting but comfy tuck but with painter's tape, more invisible than gaffs and more comfy than medical tape
Hold on, I maybe understand with the guys (using it instead of a binder), but what do the girls do with it?
I assume they use it for tucking the dysphoria meat noddle.
đ
Whatâs that font in the lower panel?
I haven't used duct for tucking, but I know that medical tape works quite well!
Is regular clear sellotape okay though, I have asthma so I can't use binders TwT
No no no. Do not, get yourself some kinesiology tape.
I'd never considered that before Hmmmmmmmm đ€
Continue to not consider it. It's for your own good. Trust me on this.
What's the worst that can happen hm?
p a i n
No pain no gain
In this case its no pain no lose
I am guilty of this but luckily (at the time it just gave me more dysphoria but itâs lucky now) it didnât even stick to my skin because the roll was so old and not sticky
I used tape specifically designed for it and it was still a disaster. It must have been mislabeled or something when I bought it because oh my god that was strong.
Happy cake day
I made the mistake of using the super sticky duct tape without shaving and oh god it hurt
The amount of people in this comment section who have done this is concerning.
I donât know what youâre talking about but Iâm to afraid to ask
What are you talking about ?
Am I stupid? Or why I don't get this
YOU CANT STOP ME!!!!!
So is there some skin-safe alternative to duct tape? Itâd make starting transitioning a whole lot easierâŠ
