I had some guy in a recent post question my desire to have my penis pointing up while I am wearing briefs. He thought that was unrealistic. I am constantly struggling to find briefs, bike shorts, swim suits, jocks that allow me to do that. Is that unrealistic. My memory of being younger indicates that I was able. Nows it seems not. Do any of you have yours pointing up? That's the most comfortable to me.

When I was in school, I wore boxer shorts when all the other guys wore briefs (that's another story), but I remember watching boys getting into their briefs. Most of the time it looked to me as if their penises pointed up. But one friend, who was well endowed, always placed his hand into his briefs between the fabric and his penis, positioning his penis straight down. So when I started wearing briefs, I followed his practice.

I always wear mine pointing up. For me it's the only way of keeping it more or less under control, so it stays where I put it.
Pointing down seems really uncomfortable to me, my dick and sack would be between my legs and rubbing against it while walking, let alone running (my favorite sport!).
Tight boxers, some briefs, many thongs work best for me. Really cheap underwear doesn't fit very well, so I spend an euro or 2 more to get something that works.

Interesting thread. Should have included a poll.

Years ago a friend of mine and I backpacked through Europe. We were both brief wearers at the time. At one point - and I think we were sort of drunk - he mentions that he noticed that when I dress I reach down and point my cock down. He leaves his pointing up. He said its what his dad and brothers do as well. My dad and brothers and cousins all pint down so we figured t was a learned thing.

When we got back to the US we were out with a group of friends (and a few guys I worked with) when the subject came up. Most guys said they point down. One guy, however, said he aims his sideways and added that he was small and it was the only way to go. We laughed thinking he was joking with us.

Not long after that a group of us went to Florida and that guy and I shared a room. Sure enough we changed in front of each other and yep, it was small. It sort of just pointed out; neither hanging nor pointing up. He looked at me, hanging there and said, see, I wasn't joking! I guess he was just that comfortable with who he was!

Since I was a kid, I've always pointed up in briefs, a Speedo, and cycling shorts / bibs. No other way is comfortable. All the guys in high school locker room did the same. I never considered anything else.

About 10 years ago, I noticed that I had to adjust more often to maintain the position. I tried boxer briefs, but they weren't the answer. Then I decided to take another look at boxers. I figured that if gravity is going to pull my dick down constantly, I may as well accept it and give it room to be comfortable. Strangely enough, the boxers that I hated when I was younger turned out to be the most comfortable underwear for me.

I wear bike shorts and brief swimwear, and no matter how often I need to adjust, my dick has to point straight up at 12:00. I commute to work on my bike. When a red light stops me, I give junior and the twins a lift up while I'm waiting. I've become oblivious to whomever might see me reach in my cycling shorts. It's a matter of comfort and has to happen.

"Dicks Up" is an interesting point of view!!!!!!

I wear mine down, but it still achieves appropriate erections and then points straight out.

Straight up, right here. Down forces my scrotum back, and between my legs, and ends up quite uncomfortable.

Additionally, my erections point nearly straight up, so it's convenient in that way, too.

I honestly don't understand how guys can do this. I've heard of pointing it upwards but even when soft it's not physically possible without the elastic waistband choking me towards the head.

oh cmon... is your flaccid cock that long? I mean, it might be, but I think most guys' flaccid cocks aren't all that long. I've NEVER understood how a guy can "dress" with his penis pointing up. Seems SOOO unnatural, since a penis naturally hangs down.

As a kid, and a 'grower not a show-er', I pointed up. Around high school, started pointing down, and do ever since. It's comfortable, for me, but I wear CK classic briefs, that seem to have a bit more give in the box...like I said, I'm a grower, so a bit snug is commfie, but don't like tooo tight. (boxers make me sprout big wood, so does freeballing, so I like some support.)

Uh...yeah. Flaccid it's just below 5.5", not enormous but still a "show-er" I'm only 5'6" tall. If I put myself flaccid against my stomach my head will get pressed by the waistband or it's close enough to the elastic that it's still constricting. Unless I pull my undies up to my bellybutton. I typed my last response on my phone so I didn't clarify too much. I obviously can see how guys point up, I've just never be been able to do it myself.

I always put my dick in a "up" position growing up. It was comfortable then but around 7th grade I switched to boxers and found it didn't bother me hanging down as long as I didn't have briefs on. I couldn't stand everything being pulled up together and sticking.

When I get hard my dick points up and I kind of have always attributed that to having my dick pointing up for so long and during the first onset of puberty.

Boxers ever since I went to them though. Way more comfy.
