That is why I refer to my ostomy as "My Demon" ... during sex is the absolutely horrific time for that darn thing to expose itself and get in the way. I have done the tucking and taping and hiding as well in so many ways. There were times I simply wore a mini skirt and just left it hidden under there...but there are, for women, some really nice silky, lacy garments for just around the tummy area that hide it very well and look pretty. I miss having tummy skin on tummy skin though...that would be nice, I hate covering that little area all the time but would freak out terribly if I didn't. As for you fellas, personally, I wouldn't care if my male partner had it hidden or not, wouldn't make a bit of difference to me...but besides the tape idea which can be uncomfortable, you can also try Ace Bandage. Much love to all from your Wounded Doe
