Tucking and taping

Just a quickie: does anyone know of an adhesive surgical tape that's as secure as zinc oxide plaster but won't leave me (as I have been now for almost a month) with ugly red wheals between my buttock cheeks and in other even less mentionable places? Seems I am allergic to the bloody stuff.

Micropore doesn't do it for me: I'm constantly worried about the tackle suddenly popping forward as the tape dislodges...

Thank you in anticipation!

For those who "tuck"

Hey everyone,

I don't exactly tuck because I had a hernia surgery as a child and I just haven't been able to, so I usually just compress things a lot with little boys' underwear. Unfortunately all of these have a white waistband which looks really unattractive while showing above my pants' waist so does anyone know of little boys' briefs that have a dark waistband, and/or what other kinds of underwear I could wear?

Do any womyn's underwear compress enough? Little boys' briefs have strong, sorta rigid cotton fabric that holds its position...for a while. They get stretched out after a couple of times.

Thanks!

Swimming...

I haven't been able to do anything swimming related because of transitioning for the last year or so (I'm MtF for those of you who don't know). I would like to be able to go swimming again if possible this year on occassion to beat the heat (I live full-time by the way).

Anyone know of some good ways to help out a pre-op with this?

Thanks.
