How to choose a FTM (female to male) transgender accessory
Posted on 28/08/2025 and updated on 05/09/2025 by Laura
When you’re transitioning (FTM), every little detail counts in order to make sure the way you look outside matches how you feel inside. The LOVE Team have created this handy little guide to help you find the accessory that corresponds to your identity.
Transitioning from female to male can sometimes be difficult when one’s body doesn’t match how they feel inside. One may strive to have more masculine traits that correspond to the masculinity within them, as it feels more truthful to their identity. Trying out different accessories could be a great step to take, before undergoing any form of surgical intervention. Wearing a prosthesis, for example, helps one to affirm their gender, reinforces self confidence and favours feelings of inner peace and wellbeing. If you’ve never used a prosthesis, however, you may find it difficult to know where to start. That’s why the LOVE Team has put this guide together! Here we detail everything you need to know, to give you an informed idea on the different options available on the market.
Why Use a FTM Accessory?
FTM accessories aren’t simply used to modify one’s appearance. They play an important role in creating harmony between one’s outer image and inner identity. Whether you use them to further your transition, explore new sensations or reinforce self confidence, they can completely transform one’s daily life.
- Aligning the mind with the body: create coherence between one’s physical appearance and gender identity.
- Explore before surgery: try out different masculine traits to better understand what physique you want to go for.
- Enrich one’s intimate life: spice up shared moments with a partner, take on a more masculine role, or discover new sensations.
- Reinforce self confidence: with our packing products, you’ll feel more sure of yourself in your everyday life, whether you’re transitioning or a cisgender man looking to add a little volume.
- Match aesthetic with functionality: some models are also designed for practical use, like our realistic penis pants for penetration, or our stand to pees so you can urinate whilst standing.
Find the Right FTM Accessory for You
Everybody's journey is different, and so the FTM prostheses are made to reflect that. Depending on the part of the body you wish to show off (or on the contrary, to hide), there is sure to be an accessory suited to your gender-affirming needs, give you more comfort on the daily, or enrich your intimate life.
Realistic penis pants: the softness of silicone mixed with intense realism
Wearing a pair of realistic penis pants means discovering the feeling of having a powerful, realistic erection, whether that be in the intimacy of partner play, or just for you. Made using top quality second skin silicone, it offers the comfort afforded by a classic pair of underwear, all whilst being resilient and easy to take care of, ensuring long-lasting use.
This accessory is just as great for solo fun as it is an accessory to fill out your trousers on a daily basis. You’ll also be able to penetrate your partner however you like (don’t forget to use a good dose of water-based lube for maximum comfort).
Most models include firm, realistic testicles that you can massage, or your partner could even play with them to create more intense shared pleasure.
Packer: realistic volume to ensure a realistic presence
Packers are prostheses that slip easily into your underwear and are designed to imitate a penis at rest. For optimal hold, we recommend you wear a tighter pair of briefs, a harness, or a specially designed pair of underwear with a pocket at the front.
Once in place, the illusion is striking. The volume that’s added to the crotch area will impress others and give you the impression of having an apparent bulge. Made out of silicone, our packers boast incredible realism with firm testicles, discreet veins and a nicely sculpted tip.
These accessories also offer the possibility to try out different sizes in order to find the one that best fits your body shape and your personal preferences, as we all know that bigger doesn’t always mean better.
Packing shell: a lightweight yet present bulge
The shell is a packing accessory designed to create volume in the crotch area, all whilst remaining super lightweight. Contrary to the silicone packing options, it’s made up of a simple piece of foam- usually made from polyester or nylon- that’s easy to handle and comfortable to wear.
The foam material is sweat absorbent and easy to clean, making them the perfect ally for those hot summer days. All you need to do is slip your shell into whatever pair of underwear you choose to give you an immediate bulge without the added weight of a classic packer, making it perfect for those who are just getting started in their packing journey.
The shell also attracts use by cisgender men who want to add more volume to their crotch region under their clothing.
Stand to pee: free to pee whilst standing, no matter where you are
For a lot of transgender men, standing up whilst peeing for the first time is an extremely emotionally charged moment. This gesture, deeply associated with masculinity, becomes possible thanks to the stand to pee (STP), allowing one to live their truth in full confidence.
The idea is simple: the STP acts like a funnel, guiding the flow of urine from the urethra to the end of the accessory. Some models are designed to resemble a penis, whilst others have a more neutral look and are designed to be purely functional.
This accessory sometimes requires a bit of practice to use but once you’ve got the knack of things, the freedom, comfort and hygiene that it gives are like no other. A STP can also attract cisgender women as it’s great for festivals, trips, or any situation where access to a toilet may be limited.
Realistic male chest: instantly sculpt a masculine silhouette
Transitioning isn’t all about the genitals, for a lot of people, the upper body is just as important in one’s gender affirming needs. When transitioning, one might want to smooth down their chest, lessen the presence of breasts and create a more muscled silhouette around the shoulders and torso.
The realistic male chest responds to this type of need. Made using supple silicone, it moulds perfectly against your body to offer a natural, second skin finish. The integrated pecs and abs are visible, even when wearing tight fitting clothes, and can be worn in front of a partner when looking to discover new forms of intimacy.
It’s the ideal solution to allow you to instantly embody an athletic, masculine silhouette, without having to resort to surgery.
No matter how far along you are in your transition, the LOVE Team wishes you nothing but happiness and goodwill. We hope these accessories will help you get a step closer to the most authentic version of yourself.
