A really snug fit

As my regular readers know, I have always been very fond of a wide assortment of snug-fitting clothing, swim briefs, jammers, athletic supporters, running tights and a wide variety of underwear ranging from thongs, briefs and various snug-fitting kinds of underwear that are designed to fit and look like jammers.

I guess my fascination with all of this started well before puberty. Like many other males my age, I took notice of what the other guys were wearing as underwear, and since this was all happening in the late 1950s, most o the guys were wearing white cotton briefs. And, as I, the guys were all growing at a rapid pace, and sometimes the briefs they were wearing did not keep up with their rate of growth. It always seemed to me that my peers were wearing tighty whiteys that were, well, undersized. Not that this bothered me, indeed I always thought this was simply interesting. Somehow in the back of my mind I could not get out of my head that my peers actually found the super tighty whiteys “fun” to wear. True, at that age I did not know exactly what was going on, but somehow the whole idea of a guy still wearing underwear that a guy had outgrown to a degree was at some level, fun.

Of course, we were also at the stage where were were all just starting to develop our masturbation skills and techniques, and the thought must have occurred to me that the really snug-fitting tighty whiteys might be “helpful” in sorting this all out. In short, just being able to wear a pair of snug tighty whiteys was going to put a guy in a really interesting “place”, a place we did not completely understand, but was really fun anyway.

Somehow my mom had different ideas with respect to what the proper underwear for a male my age should be. She always bought me (through a mail order catalog, usually) pairs of boxer briefs. These were similar to tighty whitey briefs but had longer legs. Since we never shopped for underwear at a store, I had no say in the matter. But in the back of my mind I was always thinking that my peers surely had it better than I wearing their little tighty whitey briefs. At that point in time it was very difficult if not impossible to even find the white boxer briefs in stores. The boys and men’s underwear sections back them were almost exclusively white cotton briefs.

Once I went off to college, my male roommates were still all wearing white cotton briefs. I went out and bought some myself and tossed the boxer briefs. I never looked back. But in the process I retained my fascination with wearing tighty whiteys, and, on occasion, masturbating in them. In turn this led to getting to do a bunch of other things that I never was able to do when I was still living at home. I got my first real Speedo in college, and my first real jock strap. These were great fun as well. Here I was getting to wear some of the things I had always wondered about, and the effect on me was overwhelming.

Somehow, 50 plus years later this is still all with me. I still think the undersized tighty whiteys are great fun to wear and jack off in. But gradually I have found an array of things that fit even snugger and tighter, and a lot of these items get called into service as well. The thong underwear has been a particular revelation, but better still thing underwear with a jock strap on top, maybe a strap with a cup, and a pair of undersized running tights over that. This feels really really good down there. I am very fond of that combination.

And the maybe too-tight swim briefs—say a Youth Speedo in only size 26-inch waist.

I have a summer home that is 1,200 miles away from my winter place. That means I need to maintain a collection in both places. My collection here at the summer home is smaller but no less fun. I have a half dozen neat swim briefs here, one of my favorite black with three white stripes Adidas swim briefs. Another black 26” Tyr Brief with red panels (really, really tight and skimpy), and a snug Tyr brief in an interesting green floral pattern. And some really snug-fitting thong underwear. And the interesting straps that I have accumulated here over a 15 year period.

But the really interesting collection is my tighty whiteys that I have accumulated here. I did not want to have to drag underwear back and forth between the two places, so I simply bought some here, over about 15 years. I have a number of different packages of tighty whiteys. What I find most interesting is that if you look in any department store right now, the only white cotton briefs you find generally are what are known as full-cut, and the youth sizes in white have disappeared entirely. But here I have packages of white cotton briefs (tho Men’s Adult SM) are clearly NOT full sized. Any number of the ones I have here are what as a teenager I would have called “undersized”. The fit, even unwashed the first time, is, by my teen standards, a tight fit.

I cannot understand why these old-school tighty whiteys are no longer readily available in stores. The snug-fit ones are still just as much fun to wear as they were when I was a young man. Have guys suddenly gone “brain dead” in this respect? Still, the men’s underwear market contains lots of mid length briefs in a poly-spandex cloth. Have guys collectively given up on masturbating in cotton briefs and gone instead full steam into self pleasuring in the spandex-laced trunks? A good question! A very basic question is that if a guy is interested in jerking off nowadays, what is the undergarment of choice?

I am very pleased that I have the collections I have at both locations. My groin area is very pleased as well. Somehow I think I have come headlong into a topic a lot of guys engage in regularly but are reluctant to discuss with anyone, but clearly the subject of underwear designs and self-pleasuring techniques is important to many, if not most guys.
