So I ended up coming up with my own plan on how to tape and still go to the loo. It’s pretty simple. Odd that they would recommend a brand rather than a type of tape. But Venture sheathing tape is one of the common versions in the US (most lumberyards around here carry some version of "red tape"). They're all, I believe, polypropylene tapes with acrylic adhesives. Dr. Hall also suggests wrapping the penis either in a baby wash cloth or cutting up underwear, because cotton may be even better for reducing friction and preventing chafing. Because the hold is more secure and there is more room for things to move around, many trans-women find gaffs much more comfortable to wear everyday. It takes practice. Getting the tape in place while holding everything where it needs to be can feel a little like juggling. It will take some practice to get things in the right place and secured.

Simply wrap up around your penis and scrotum from the base of your penis and down the length. Don’t wrap up the head, that would be weird and you don’t need too.

Shave your pubic hair if you plan on using tape. Use a good razor and shaving cream or gel to shave the scrotum and surrounding area. Carefully hold your skin so it’s tight and flat, shave slowly and gently with the grain, and rinse the razor every 1 to 2 strokes. When you’re finished, lightly apply baby oil, Aloe, or a gentle, unscented moisturizer. [1] X Research source It can be messy.
