Crossdressing-related question for the males on my friendslist: How do you walk with one of *vage hand gesture* these? For that matter, how do you get through your day without accidentally sitting on it or something? And I thought the binding was the annoying part.

Some guys have a desire for a penis the length of their thighs. I have no idea why.

As a crash course in penis function (er, almost wrote "fucktion"... ::headdesk::), there are two kinds: "growers" and "showers" (as in "show"). "Showers" are v.v. close to their erect length all the time, including when flaccid. "Growers" are v.v. small most of the time, but expand tremendously at erection (thus, phrases like "half-hard" -- expanding, but not all the way). From most guys I've talked to, "growers" are more common than "showers", but nobody wants to admit that.

If you wear briefs, your package shouldn't slide around that much. Boxers? Not so safe for that, even though they're more popular. (though I still haven't figured out why -- support, men! support! and then I get ridiculed for wearing briefs and occasionally boxer-briefs. sigh.)

Also, what wibbble said about boobies -- you're all counterbalanced!

Tight underwear apparently restricts sperm production - also, most guys seem to find boxers more comfortable. The two facts are likely related.

I dunno... it's just that you grow up with briefs, and at the age when all my friends were making the transition to boxers, I tried them and it was just *unsettling* not having any support. And in the summer, it's like wearing shorts under your shorts, which seems so redundant.

The sperm count thing doesn't worry me; my dad never wore boxers, and I'm one of three siblings, so it can't be *that* profound an effect.

I never wear shorts, so I don't have that problem.

I think it's just one of a number of factors in increasingly low sperm counts these days. Things like central heating, use of laptops, use of female hormones in foods, &c. have all combined to lower sperm counts in a lot of guys.

Not that it especially worries me, since I don't plan to breed.

I didn't move to boxers until I was 17ish, and it was weird for a while, but ultimately worth it, I think. It feels nicer to have them hanging loose than to have the support.

I wear boxer briefs, mostly because I rarely wear anything but the girly variety of boxer briefs when I'm not crossdressing, so briefs would be too annoying, I think. They're mostly okay, but when things occasionally do go wrong, they go wrong properly. :D
