DIY Trans Masc Tips

This is a collection of some trans masc tricks and tips I've picked up over the years which I wish I had discovered sooner!

Disclaimer - Be careful when experimenting with these things. Listen to your body.

Binding

Binding is used to make the chest have a more flat appearance. When I started binding I didn't have much money or resources and learned about the trick below. Please note that I had a fairly small chest to start with, so mileage may vary, but this worked very well for me.

Find spandex shorts (like biker shorts; I used to find them at thrift stores).
Cut hole through crotch. This is where you put your head through.
Put arms through leg holes. Trim legs back to make more of a tank top style.

Standing to Pee (STP)

Plastic Lid Trick

This is the easiest and cleanest STP I've used (other than pstyle). I prefer this to the pstyle because it's not bulky. Easy to carry in pocket with a little tissue to use as needed to keep it and myself clean.

Find a large plastic lid (paint, yogurt, coffee) and cut off the edges so it's a flat disk. (I prefer the 6.25in Pyrex lids since they are very durable)
Hold similar to a pstyle to use. Practice at home first.

About this size works best (between size of hand and palm):

Held kinda like this to use (curled up on either edge.. like a taco? :P):

Sexual Health

Lower Growth Penetration Tips

Use something to act as a cock ring to help increase size and stiffness. (I've had the most luck with items advertised as "finger sleeves" and "toe sleeves")
Cut a slit through the top of your underwear band to pull through. This helps keep things up higher for easier access. (I like using jock strap style underwear for this)
If your partner enjoys vaginal penetration: I’ve found missionary and cowgirl to be the easiest positions.

Favorite Toy

My favorite toy so far has been the Doc Johnson Goodhead Helping Hand (sometimes called the "Bro Sleeve"). Don’t forget to also get water-based lube!

Also - vibrating massage wands can be awesome for everyone, regardless of genital configuration.

I would like to include more resources in the future! For example, a list of blogs with folks' surgery journeys, places to get HRT, transition videos, etc.
