From what we can read online, when there is a discussion about how to place the (flaccid) penis in underwear, many boys declare to position it downwards. However, as far as I'm concerned, I'm not able to do it. I noticed that, except when I am standing, I am not able to keep my penis downward. I should probably say that it is my penis that does not stay down. In any case, this is not related to the type of underwear I use (especially because almost always I wear briefs). In fact, even if I put my penis downward, as soon as I sit, I lie down or I bow, for example to collect something from the floor, it returns upward (although not perfectly straight). Moreover, when my penis is placed downwards I perceive a slight discomfort, as if I force a part of the body to assume an uncomfortable position: this is probably due to the fact that I got used to positioning it upwards. But not only. I noticed that my penis when flaccid, it doesn't entirely point down, so as to lean on the scrotum. I could almost say that it is perpendicular to the floor or to the testicles.

This particularity could be completely irrelevant. However, besides being curious if it is present in other boys and therefore common, it has become important for me for another reason. In fact, I would have decided to keep my foreskin always retracted. Leaving aside that I would do it mainly because aesthetically speaking I prefer to have my glans exposed, I realized that this becomes slightly difficult if I leave the penis positioned upwards. The reason is simple: the only area of my glans that is very sensitive is the one where the frenulum is located. On the contrary, the rest of the glans does not cause me discomfort if it is rubbed. Pointing the penis upwards, the part of the glans most stimulated by rubbing with the underwear is precisely that of the frenulum. Instead, if I could keep it positioned downward, the frenulum would be more protected since it would be the rest of the glans to be more stimulated because of contact with the briefs. In short, I would have fewer problems. Can someone help me or give me some useful advice ?

I've known guys who were taught to position their dicks upward in their briefs. And I've read that there are suggestions that it be arranged in jock straps (especially hard cup jocks) upward. For me, that is uncomfortable and unnatural.

Historically, when men's military pants were fitted, the soldier was asked if he "dressed right or dressed left"... meaning, which thigh do his cock and balls usually hang down. The pants would be tailored with extra room in one leg or the other to accommodate his package

When I was young and more circumcised (not that I understood why I had to do that), I would put it up because my underwear wouldn’t irritate my head. I had more skin underneath. Now that I have a cover it hangs however it decides.

I think it's a matter of what you've gotten used to. I've always laid to the left. Anything else is VERY uncomfortable and I always need to fluff it back into place.

It's probably just a matter of habit. Until childhood (since we wear diapers), we all have our penis downwards in our underwear. Subsequently with puberty and adolescence the situation can modify, also consequently to the change of the penis...

I think it’s a personal preference thing. I hang down, always have, I think it’s uncomfortable to have it pointing up, and it would just slide down to an even more uncomfortable position.

In my opinion it also depends on the shape of the penis...

Yet theoretically the majority of boys say that it is more comfortable and "normal" to keep it down...

Anyhow, strangely, if I leave my foreskin retracted with glans uncovered, the penis point down much more, as if it is "attracted by something"...

I'm the same way. My cock hangs down, foreskin usually forward, more in front of than over my balls, so that's how it hung in my briefs (admittedly not super-tight). When I got dressed, I just pulled my briefs up, over my cock and balls, and just tucked my genitals inside briefs so they were more-or less hanging the same way. If I was hanging loose and long, I'd tuck my cock below and under my balls.

My cock won't stay pointed up, in briefs or jockstrap. I obey the Law of Gravity.

This is interesting. I can't stand when mine goes down. I want it pointed up. I find it so uncomfortable when in my bike shorts my cock heads south. I am always rearranging it. And my measuring of the comfortability of underwear is if it enables me to keep my dick going north. Hard to find such underwear.

99% of the time I have no idea where the penis will land in underwear, I just put them on. Unless I am doing something sport wise outside in public, i may do a micro adjustment / double check to reduce bulging .

Then again I also do not have right and left socks
