Men’s Underwear Guide — Protection Cups, Bulge Booster, Suspensory
November 27, 2009 | 2:17 pm SharePart 4 of our Men’s Underwear Guide, and yes, I am as surprised as you when I researched into this.
This time we’re talking about protection cup, bulge booster and suspensory. The first one is probably the easiest to digest among the three, it’s a protection wear for sportsmen and athletics. The second one does what its name suggests, and the third one, well, are for people who wants to be infertile.
Yup, these things do exist. If you don’t know about them before, read on and find out!
For those who doesn’t know, this is a series of posts that will help enlighten the guys (and some girls) about the types of men’s underwear out there, when to wear them and when NOT to wear them.
Protective Cups
Comfort: ***
Practicality: ******
Style: *
When to wear it: For heavy sportsmen, street fights or in an argument with a women
When not to wear it: Too bulky for anywhere else!
Protection cups are for professional athletics who are engaged in sports where their own balls might be in jeopardy other than the ones they’re playing. That sounds kind of wrong, but I actually mean games such as football, rugby, baseball, wrestling etc where guys might bang at each other at the most unexpected of places.
Of course, if you happen to be some mafia king who are involved in street fights where people will do anything to get you down, wearing protective cups might be your choice of underwear. Or if you have an abusive girlfriend who loves banging your balls, the hard way. Protection cups are made to protect the family jewels.
These protection cups are built in two forms, compression shorts and athletic supporters which resembles jockstraps, briefs or trunks. Depending on what sort of sports you’re in you wear them to match your other garments. And they sure do look sturdy as hell. Your balls will be safe in this safezone, mate!
Bulge Booster
Comfort: **
Practicality: ***
Style: *
When to wear it: When you have an ego problem
When not to wear it: All the time, PLEASE!
Bulge booster does what its name suggests, making your bulge more prominent. Well, at least it’s making your bulge appear to be bigger, it doesn’t really make them any bigger in real. It’s not a penis growth wear, neither. It’s a thong with a hole in front to hold your lil brother up so it’ll stand up taller.
“Now you can easily, quickly and comfortably increase the size of your bulge with the IJ Bulge Booster. It’s unbelievably simple but amazingly effective. Just pull the waistband on like a pair of underwear and push your boys through the opening created by the contoured support strap and that’s it! Your package will be lifted up and pushed forward, creating a remarkable increase in your male profile.”
Yurp, it’s a remarkable increase in your male profile alright! Just remember it’s all back to the same when you take them off, if you ever really do get that girl on bed for having a bigger bulge.
Suspensory
Comfort: ****
Practicality: ***
Style: *
When to wear it: When you need to have lots of sex and not have kids, Edit: Or you want to have support for a teared genital ligaments
When not to wear it: When you want to have healthy balls
Suspensory is the complete opposite of what bulge boosters are made for. While bulge boosters make your balls big, suspensory makes your balls small, tight, tucked in and warm so that you will kill more sperm and get infertile after wearing it for a few weeks or months.
Yup, it’s a male contraception solution. It’s for guys who want to f**k around and don’t want to get the girls pregnant, so they wear suspensory to kill more sperm. It’s also for couples who had a couple of kids already but don’t want to lose the bedroom fun and get another accident born. By keeping your balls tight and warm your sperm count will reduce due to more heat, thus making it harder for them to produce kids.
While some experts claim that it is perfectly safe and fine to wear them. I’ll leave it to you to decide if you ever want this birth control method that cooks your poor balls.
Edit: While thermal suspensory (as explained above) is one type of suspensory that is used as a contraceptive method, but there’s another type of suspensory that is used as a support for the male genitals. A support suspensory can help support a teared genitals ligament as a result of a hard blow or impact (ouch on the fights!) or “the impact of the penis thrusting into a woman’s pelvic bone” (Read: fucking too hard). So you can wear suspensory in the meantime as your ligaments are recovering. Our friend Gerry which informed me on the comments said that suspensory is actually a pretty comfortable article to wear, and this type of suspensory does not kill sperm count, don’t worry!
So when you get a suspensory, remember to check whether it is a support suspensory, or a thermal suspensory! The former supports while the latter kills sperms, beware!
We’re all done for our Part 4 of Men’s Underwear Guide. While you might think that we’ve covered everything already for all these 4 parts, well, the truth is there are still more! What’s coming up next are kinky wears such as bodysuits, slings and unusual material fetish wears to be presented to you here on Caramelz.my.

The description of the suspensory is not correct. A suspensory is an extremely comfortable support for the scrotum. It's there to lift not compress or constrict.

Hum, I got my sources from here:

It says:
I wonder if I got my sources wrong? If it is I can modify my article! :)

Grey,
I believe that source is not as clear as it should be. The devices used to reduce fertility were specially designed to elevate testicular temperature by insulation and/or holding the testicles very close to the body. Though referred to as suspensories, they are significantly different from the usual suspensory that can be bought from most pharmacies and over the internet. My doctor suggested trying one because of a slight discomfort. I was amazed how good they feel. I've worn one all the time, every day, ever since.
Regards, Gerry.

aww, thank you for the information Gerry! yes i think i did make a mistake, there are two types of suspensories, one that is used as a contraceptive, one that is used for support for the male genitals. i will edit the article accordingly as so not give wrong information. thank you again Gerry!

When looking at the "boosting" type of underwear for men, they are now out with some underwear lines (including Andrew Christian) that have these construction pieces build into normal underwear. I think this will be an easier sell for guys wanting normal coverage, but give them enhancing type of support.

When I was in a hospital 1-1/2 years ago with a heart attack. I had emergency surgery and was hospitalized for 5 weeks. While as a "guest", one of the heart doctors told me that I had, "The largest testicals he had ever seen on a human". Nurses from severl floors would come by (some times in small groups) and would ask to "see them".
Previously, I had never given it much thought, other than it was next to impossible to find any underwear that would fit. Even so-called "pouch briefs" would only support one testicle much less two. My wife gave up years ago trying to find underwear for me.
Question: Does ANYONE make a "pouch brief" that would support a "medium sized grapfruit" or, regulation "soft-ball". (actual scrotum size, not exagerated)
I cannot wear light colored slacks because if I have to "pee", it will eventually produce a wet-spot on my crotch which is quite embarassing.
Thanks

This article suggesting, no stating that a suspensory is for men who don't want to have babies is completely misinformed.
They are worn to support post surgery.
And should most definitely be worn for strenuous exercise to protect them.
Scrotum's and testicles move up and down regulating with temperature, thus shrinkage when cold.
I being misinformed like you didn't wear them as a young sportsman and wore loose boxers all the time.
Over time I believe this contributed to me forming a Varicocele and after surgery developing a hydrocele.
I now have had surgery for the Hydrocele and a consequential hematoma. I wear testicular supports all of the time for just that support, if not they can be painful. All sportsmen should wear them. Get your facts straight, you are making comments about conditions or apparatus with your own swayed knowledge.
