What Do Gay Men Love So Much About Jockstraps?
The jockstrap’s original function was practical, mainly to make physical activity easier and more comfortable for men.
Which makes sense. Who wants their dangling snake to get in the way of pumping iron or pounding miles on a bike?
Jockstraps are also often associated with wearing a cup to protect a guy’s babymakers. Which again, makes sense. Ever been playing second base during a baseball game and take a grounder to the family jewels? It ain’t pretty.
But for gay men, a jockstrap serves a purpose greater than that of practicality during exercise.
The jockstrap entered gay men’s wardrobe in the 1950s and 1960s as a form of fashion, and it is an undergarment that is still loved today.
Why though? What do gay men love so much about jockstraps? Well, here are a few reasons.
They Make You Feel Sexy
Let’s be honest, jockstraps are sexy.
They’re revealing for one. The pouch is just big enough to fit what you’re packing. Other than that, you are fully exposed. It is literally a full moon in the rear.
A jockstrap also can accentuate some of your best features. It shows off your nice bulge without giving it all away, kind of like a tease, which is sometimes hotter than going full frontal.
The straps under your butt can also really help define your cheeks. You can also get ones with straps that go over your shoulders, which can highlight your chest muscles.
This all makes for a pair of underwear that will make a man feel downright sexy and confident in their body, helping you in the dating world, but also in your everyday life. Knowing that you look smoking underneath can give you that extra kick in your step.
They’re Comfortable
This is what they were designed for. Comfort. Especially with physical activity and exercise.
It keeps things secure without wasting material so you can move freely without your willy moving freely.
Boxers and briefs can just get so uncomfortable sometimes.
Boxers get all bunched up and briefs can be so tight and restrictive.
But not jockstraps. They get you where you need to go comfortably.
It’s A Fashion Statement
How is a jockstrap NOT a fashion statement!
Look at it! It’s bold and daring, and it shows off one’s confidence in their body and sexuality.
There are so many ways to design and accessorize them so a man can fully express himself.
And that’s what we do at Timoteo. We understand that the jockstrap is meant for more than just practicality, but it can be used as a means to embrace your body and display your high self-esteem.
