AMAB and masc presenting.

I’ve gotten really into formal wear lately and am experimenting with how-far-is-too-far when tailoring one’s slacks especially close. I’m loving the fit of my slacks where I have them now but I can notice the line of my cotton boxer-briefs even when they aren’t bunched up. The loose cotton also has a tendency to roll/bunch when I put my leg down a pant so I’m definitely looking to buy a different solution soon, wondering which options might be best though.

    My fucking christ, the little icon advertising their patented ball pouch is absurd, hah! I might grab one of these but holy shit you’re not joking. $25 for one pair of trunks.

      Yeah. They do get a little cheaper if you buy multiple at a time, but they are expensive as shit. I will say I’ve had mine for like 8 months are they still feel exactly the same as when new. And they’re mad comfortable. And I think they make the “package” look pretty good while wearing them too, which is a nice little bonus.

        That is something I’m to a degree concerned about. As I’m getting my clothes to fit better and tighter I’m wondering if there’s a line between a sharp outfit and an obscene one. And especially wondering if anyone would warn me once I’ve crossed it.

        Your experience has been that it makes things “apparent”? but I guess I’m drawing an imaginary line between David Bowie’s codpiece as compared to an extra thick “vein” running partway down one’s leg… Maybe the distinction I’m imagining is that a distinct but undetailed “volume” might be classier than metaphorical “poky nipples” down one leg.
