Do You Assume Men Wearing A Jockstrap At The Gym Are Gay?

[jockinajock]

What about a black 2xist jock?

If I saw you in the gym locker room in a black 2xist jockstrap I would probably assume you're gay. While black and white are more traditional jock colors, 2xist also makes underwear, which by default makes it a bit more of a fashion jock than an athletic jock. If the goal is to play it straight, then stick with athletic brands for jockstraps, like Duke, McDavid, Shock Doctor, Under Armour, Nike, etc. Any brand outside of the sports realm is immediately questionable. At least, that's my take.

Briefs are fine almost irregardless. The exceptions are Andrew Christian and similar - definitely gay.

The only men I assume are straight are the ones who wear old, baggy boxers. I assume they were bought by their mother or wife.

These are perfectly acceptable in the locker room (and generally). Black briefs are respectable and not inherently gay in my opinion.

Would you consider these jockstraps being worn at the gym as gay. Purchase these on Black Friday from Nordstrom's

Yep - especially that popsicle one.

Brand and style makes a lot in having a more or less gay looking.

for me a fashion jockstrap is more gayish than a sport one.

the brands like AC, CK, aussiembum, etc are more gay than under armour, mcDavid, bike, etc

anyway I am a big fan of jockstraps and love the sport ones, white and thick waistband so definetely not a fixed rule

 

[john625]

Yes, except in the case when the locker room is used for a sport where they are commonly used, such as Soccer. I would believe the same for Speedos

 

[kcdave]

Yep - especially that popsicle one.

So if I was wearing this at the gym would you approach me and ask if you could lick my popsicle

 

[OctoGun]

I’ve never seen anyone wearing a jockstrap in real life. But if I did then yeah, would assume they’re gay

I would wink and smile and see if you follow me to the showers.

The only time I’ve seen a jockstrap worn at the gym outside HS school sport was at planet fitness a couple years ago. He had a fit dad bod. When I peeked, he was pulling them off and revealed a 7 inch softie with a large gauge PA on the end of it. It made my heart skip a beat and I got caught staring lol! He had a pride band tat on his forearm so he must have been gay. I often wonder if he is a member here!

 

[bulgingpkg]

A small minority of men at my gym wear a jock and it is usually a traditional jock, almost always white, occasionally black or red. I do not assume they are gay, but I do assume they have exhibitionist tendancies. Because a jock isn't really necessary any more.
I am surprised by the number of men who wear loose boxers with no tight underwear, and among those, many wear multiple layers of boxers and basketball shorts.

Yeah, if I see the NastyPig logo anywhere, Im like "I see you!"

I'm guilty of deciding if they are gay based upon the brand of their jock strap.

I have never considered jockstraps to be "gay". That is like a lot of the stupid thinking from the 1970s.

In my high school there was a pretty but stupid girl, who would often look at something, and, utter, "That's kind of gay. Don't you think so?" This intellectual titan married an ardent bible-thumping, gun-toting republican went on to have three daughters, all of whom now identify as non-binary.

They refer to their parents as "republic*nts". Wifey no longer asks whether something is kind of gay. She runs off, when we ask which pronouns her children use, so that we can do the same.

It would never occur to me if a jock strap wearing guy was gay. I don’t see jockstraps very often at the gym either way
