Unlike the OP, I identify as non-binary, and I tend to wear very feminine, silky, colorful panties. I've liked the feel of them, along with the gendered aspects. TBH, I've tended more to go commando, but I suspect that I may find myself wearing the silky panties more often now with the scrotum gone.

Not all women's panties are feminine--some are very simple, monochrome, no lace, etc. You'll typically find them in white, grey, dark blue, or black. Hint: If you own and wear them, and you identify as a man, then they are MEN'S underwear, regardless of who they were marketed to.

Between stitches, surgical adhesive, and swelling, I've joked that I feel like I'm holding one of our dog's "indestructible" big rubber toys between my ...

Wow…posted too soon today? I sat up on the edge of my bed for a bit to do some things on my computer, and was then sore. A little over an hour later, considerably more swelling and the area is turning purple. That’s what I initially expected to happen, but I thought it would be right away ...

Almost zero pain this morning—a bit of discomfort at the edges. Bleeding seems to have stopped. Swelling has gone down, but I look like I have a “pig in a blanket” sticking out from me. 😄

If I stand in front of a mirror at a bit of an angle, I can see the entirely empty space between my legs, and ...

P.S. I think you put the wrong year in your signature line for your Scrotectomy.

Thank you! And whoops! Blame pain meds. Fixed now!
