Male Organ Protection: Jockstrap Considerations
by John Dugan OwnerA large part of basic manhood care involves
simple male organ protection. For example, wearing a latex protector when
coupling increases protection against social diseases. Often, especially among
men who are actively athletic, a guy needs to protect his manhood by wearing a
jockstrap. To help men get better male organ protection from their jockstraps,
we offer the following pieces of advice.
Tips
and recommendations
-
Actually wear it. Jockstraps (often called athletic supporters) get a bad rap.
Men complain they’re uncomfortable and that they squish their male organ and
sacks together in a way that isn’t natural. As a result, many men don’t wear
their jockstraps. But even though there may be a little discomfort involved, a
jockstrap can help keep the member from getting injured – and that’s worth the
discomfort.
- Use
a cup when appropriate. When involved in contact sports in which there is a distinct
possibility of a direct blow to the manhood, adding a protective cup to the
jock is crucial. The plastic cup is often bought separately from the jockstrap
itself and slipped into the pouch after it is put on. Cups generally come in
four sizes (child, youth, teen and adult). They may vary in shape as well, with
some having a fuller shape and others a leaner shape, depending upon the size
and shape of a guy’s package.
- But
don’t always opt for a cup. In some cases, a cup may be a detriment. For example, men
who are involved in long distance track events may need a jock to keep their
male organ and sacks in place, but likely do not need a cup. Wearing a cup
while running in a track event could potentially lead to some unintended
chafing.
- Select
a style that fits the need. The traditional jockstrap is a thick waistband that supports
a knit pouch and sports two elastic bands to connect the pouch back to the
waistband, leaving the rear exposed. However, there are many variations on this
theme, including jocks that resemble regular briefs and boxer briefs, some that
look like a wrestler’s singlet, those that offer additional straps for the
thighs, etc. In addition, some jocks are designed with specific sports in
mind, such as swimming (which tends to be much thinner to fit under a speedo)
or cold weather sports (which includes extra padding for warmth). There can
also be variations in the pouches. Some are designed for a snug fit, others are
more contoured.
One
thing to remember: sometimes a jockstrap may have a “look” that appeals to a
man (and may present his member in a sensually appealing manner) but it may not
offer as much protection as another style. When concentrating on male organ
protection, sacrifice a better look for better functionality.
- Consider
layering. In
some instances, it may pay to add extra protection to the midsection. Some men
wear compression shorts under their jockstrap. Others may wear a pair of
briefs, either over or under the strap. This is a personal choice, of course.
However, if wearing the jock over another layer of clothing, it may be necessary
to move up to a larger waist size, especially if a man is already unsure of
which size he should get.
Wearing
a jockstrap helps add a new layer of male organ protection when involved in
sports, but another key factor in such protection is keeping the equipment in
great general health. This can be aided by consistent use of a top
notch member health crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man
Oil, which is clinically proven mild and safe for skin). For best
results, a man wants to be sure that the selected crème provides a sufficient
array of vitamins, such as vitamins A, B5, C, D and E. In addition, the crème
should include L-arginine, an amino acid that helps produce the nitric oxide
which in turn helps male organ blood vessels to open and receive greater
influxes of blood.
