Surgery went well this morning. My throat is sore from the airway tube and my neck is sore from the surgery. Fortunately my wife is taking excellent care of me. The staff at the surgery center was fantastic both about my care and about me being transgender. If everything goes well I should be able to reopen my shop to orders in a week.
We got Reddit platinum! I am so freaking touched by this 😍😍 I know we're out here pushing sales and fundraising... But this means something to me. This is *my* life I was trying to make better and this is me trying not share that. Thanks amazing user person on Reddit...

Just thought I’d let everyone know that ftm pitstop has restocked the Jimmy stp in all 3 colors! I did a review of the Jimmy STP that was very popular which you can see for yourself here: http://ftmproductreviews.tumblr.com/post/150218060663/ftmproductreviews-the-jimmy-stp-review-today and if you want to buy a Jimmy STP for yourself go to: http://www.ftmpitstop.com/phone/jimmy-stp.html
You won’t be sorry it’s a great STP and be sure to tell them Ronan sent you!
After 6 years of trying to figure out how to pee standing up, obsessing over how well I pass in bathroom settings….Alas. I have done it.
No mess = No worries
Easy to clean = Keepin the QT bod healthy and happy with high grade silicon
Realistic size, shape and color = Comfort in packing AND peeing
A few more practice rounds and I’ll be out on the town peeing freely!
Practice makes perfect. Confidence is key when navigating bathroom situations, so find what works for you. Be it sitting down, standing up, going to places with gender safe spaces, or any other comfortable variation. This is one of the ways I practice peeing freely, and if you are a transman who stresses over bathroom situations, this might help. Regardless…you, and the whole world should pee freely. So find your style, strut your stuff, and pee freely!
Here’s what was key for me:
1. You’ll want to have a loose grip - stepping up, and clutching your weiner doesn’t do much for relaxing the muscles that help you pee. So practice at home - in the shower or a place you don’t mind cleaning up after a few practice rounds.
2. Press the base of the STP (the piece of material at the rear top of the balls) up against, or just in front of your perineum (…ahem, that’s the piece of skin just before your booty hole.)
3. Make sure you get a good seal. But don’t forget about keeping a loose grip.
4. Let loose and don’t forget to shake off and wipe down your packy with a baby wipe before tucking it back in your drawers.
Pee freely, friends!!!
