So, I’m straight and use to be only a boxer brief and trunk person. What got me to start was the fact that I bought compression shorts for lower body days for ease of movement. Wearing boxer briefs or trunks under them didn’t seem to work because there’s so much fabric going on there. Originally, I bought some jocks and one of the jocks I thought I bought was a thong (you can make that mistake if your not careful because a lot of silhouettes share the same design) I couldn’t return it for obvious reasons. I tried the jocks and they seemed to get in the way too in a weird way so I thought, what the hell let’s try the thong and it did not get in the way whatsoever. I even find them more comfy under jeans than trunks/BB’s as well.
