Trans Guy Tips #2: Packing/STPing
Note; This was made with the EZP STP packer by Transthetics in mind. If you have a different packer or STP, these tips may or may not work.
1. When picking out a packer and/or STP, decide what your main wants are. Do you want bigger or smaller, do you want something more usable as an STP or more usable as a packer? Personally, for all my needs I found the EZP STP packer/STP device by Transthetics perfect, however for someone who needs a bit more size to their packer to cure their dysphoria, it may not be the best due to it being a bit compact, only 3 inches of the actual shaft. However as an STP and as a packer and in general, the EZP is the best bang for your buck if you need something both realistic and usable functionally. Also if you have had bottom surgery or bottom growth from T, a different packer is best, I’ve heard of ones made specifically for that that are much better for that situation.
2. When STPing, start out in the shower/bath completely nude and then when you’ve mastered that, move on to the toilet, and then finally, if you ever want to, move onto urinal/men’s bathroom use. I was kind of an idiot and started out at the toilet, and I did have an accident once, however that was only due to rushing because I really had to go. Moving on to my next tip with that;
3. Only STP when you are fully awake, and when you have to pee but you don’t have to go so bad that you rush. If you rush, or you’re half awake/not thinking about what you’re doing, there *will* be an accident. Every time. Take your time, and be patient, and most of the time you will be okay.
4. When STPing, position your package farther back than you think you need to. If you position it too far forward, it will all leak out the back. Same goes with squeezing it. Don’t squeeze the cup, or press it hard against yourself. Rather, push it loosely against yourself and hold the cup, while always pointing the shaft down and being mindful to aim correctly. I had almost no problems with aiming, it’s not as scary as you think. Always make sure you’re pulling the shaft down though so the flow of gravity removes any urine quicker. Also you can usually pee fine, but just in case try not to pee too fast because I’ve heard some people have had spills that way from the device overflowing. After you finish, shake your shaft a little bit like a cis guy would, and discreetly flip the cup of the stp up a little (by kind of pushing on the bottom of the testicles) to empty any extra urine that may have collected in the base. Always make sure to have both seat and underseat of the toilet up though, and wipe any spill on the seat after using because, y’know, it’s just polite. Also for me, I found STPing way easier by squatting/spreading my legs a little. This may be due to my extra weight I’ve gained, but I’m unsure. It seems to help some people though.
5. You don’t *have* to wash your STP after every use, however it is very good to give it a good thorough wash with soap and water after every day to avoid it soaking in any odour.
6. When using it as a packer, please please please do NOT pack down (aka with shaft folded over the testicles)> Most packers pack like this so it’s a common mistake with the EZP, but the EZP is not designed for this. Pack upwards, or up and to the side instead. You’ll notice if you pack down, not only will you have random “boners” from it popping upwards in your pants, but it will also deform the packer over time and mess up its function as an STP.
7. A little tip to making it pack/STP more securely, is wear briefs with a pouch where you can pull the shaft out to STP. Make sure the briefs are tight enough to hold it well in your underwear, but not too tight that it is uncomfortable. Position the head of your shaft right under the waistband while packing, which will hold the shaft in place and provide a better looking bulge.
8. When it comes to NSFW “play”, yes you can use the EZP if you are creative. If you have a dildo or some sort of rod-like object, you can insert it carefully into the (clean and washed!!) packer, (as long as it’s not too big that it deforms it or otherwise damages the packer, be careful) and then cover the whole thing with a condom (or sealless plastic baggies, that’s my diy condom if you can’t buy em) and use! The packer is a little short, but it’s thick and it’s not too bad as an insertable device.
Overall, just be careful and have fun!
