What "triggered" your interest in jockstraps?

[Always Strapped]

I'm wondering what actually "triggered" our interest in jockstraps. For me it was the fact that, in my mid-teens, I had my first "crush" -- my high-school football coach. I found him very attractive, but it wasn't until the first time I saw him in a jockstrap that I finally understood, deep down, that my attraction to him was sexual in nature. (Interestingly, my fellow students, the guys my age, really didn't appeal to me very much. As it turns out, I've always been drawn to men older than me.) I had already been wearing jockstraps for sports before then and liked them, but that nailed it. Jockstraps suddenly took on a powerfully erotic dimension for me, and have remained that way for me ever since. Back then, however (it was around 1970), I wasn't willing to accept the fact that I was gay, so I deeply suppressed my sexuality, refusing to admit it to myself. That would take another seven or eight years, not until I was 23. Anyway, that's how it started for me. What about you?

My dad played sports and always wore a jock. I'd watch him slip a cup into his jock and would think how masculine he was. When he'd get home from a game, he'd shower and then pull the cup out of his jock and throw it into the laundry basket while tossing his cup into his dresser drawer. I'd wait and put on his dirty jock. It would give me a massive hard on. Memories!

Shit, I hate hearing all this from y'all. I'm so young, never got to experience anything y'all have. I started wearing jocks when I played sports in middle school, and all though High School. I was the only one who wore one. When I was playing varsity soccer in high school, I was the only one that wore a strap. A lot of girls made fun of me for it, as well as the guys on the team. I didn't care. Kinda made me more confidant knowing people were looking at me strapped up. I guess the biggest thing that made me stay staying strapped up, comes from being prior military. We all stayed strapped up. I guess it's a different feeling knowing your brothers next to you have one on, and they look sexy as hell. Also, didn't help seeing all them naked when we showered

I think my trigger was seeing my older brother's jockstrap on top of his clean clothes on the laundry table. He was 9 years older than I was and played on the high school basketball team so I would have been around 8 years old. I saw it there and wondered what it was so I took it in order to explore it more. In my room I checked the jock over (it was a BIKE medium) and seeing that it had a pouch and straps, figured out it was some type of underwear, I stripped naked and put it on with the pouch riding up my ass crack and the straps around my small cock and balls. I knew this couldn't be right so I took it off and put it back on correctly. Naturally the jock was too big for me, the pouch was loose as were the leg straps but I loved the way it felt to wear it. I took the jock off and put it back where I found it.
After hs, my brother started college. He often would bring his laundry home for mom to do. The first time he did, i dug through the bag to see if there was a jock in there and to my delight, there were 4, each quite rank with my bro's cock and ball scent. I would put one on while I sniffed the others. I began to feel a tingling down in my balls whenever I did this but it was too early for me to get a hard on. Bonus was when a couple of my brother's friends would come home with him and bring their laundry. They had dirty jocks in their bags too. One guy was really cute and would often wear just a pair of jean cutoffs and a t-shirt which I thought was super-sexy. While wearing one of his jocks, I fantasized what he looked like wearing it. By this time I had started 7th grade and jocks were mandatory for PE so I had a jock of my own. I was getting boners and jacking off regularly. I filled my bro's and his friend's jock pouches with as much cum as I could before I had to put them back in the laundry for washing. One time at dinner when my bro had come home alone and I had already ravaged his jock, my mom commented that maybe he should rinse out his athletic supporters before putting them in the laundry. He looked at her with a puzzled look on his face and just said ok. The next few times he brought laundry home, either there were no jocks in the bag or they had been rinsed and dried as there was no scent to them.

My 15 year old cousin who was a athlete showed me his hockey equipment. I was 5 years old. I was fascinated with his off white Protex jockstrap which held a metal cup with cotton wadding around the edges. The jock was stained and had a smell that was intoxicating. I recall him telling me I'd get to wear one when I became a man. So, from then on I associated jock cups with masculinity.

I was probably around 10 and kept seeing my dad and his baseball team with huge bulges in their baseball pants. So I sifted around his dresser drawers and started trying on his strap and cup. Fell in love instantly. So of course I told him I needed a strap for soccer and he took me shopping for my first one. It was a bike #10 and whenever I wore it I couldn’t keep myself from having a hard-on. Even wore it to school and had to keep my dick in the waistband to keep myself down. At one point it went missing and I was fucking devastated

When I was a little kid, my dad did, that was the first time I saw a jock - I was probably 5.

Good man, your dad! I recall being 12 at the California beach, and my Dad tugging at his beige swim trunks and saying, "I got sand all in my jockstrap." I had only just discovered jockstraps the year before and the mere WORD was galvanizing enough to make me get kinda hard. I certainly viewed them as what guys who were grown wore; I saw plenty of that at my boys' school, thank God. But I had never heard my dad be what I considered "explicit" (even tho' it was perfectly tame language).
That's the vacation where I shot my first load at age 12. I have been masturbating for maybe a year without being able to shoot.
I also recall that my dad told me to go to the back of the house we were renting and take off my suit so he could use the hose to wash off the salt and sand. This seemed perfectly sensible to me, but I have a memory of kind of WANTING to show off to my dad--to show him I was growing up. That too seemed normal. So I waited there, naked for a minute till he returned.
In retrospect, I have a feeling this was his way of checking out his son to see if he (me) was developing normally. He just disguised it with this request. It was in no way creepy or inappropriate; just a dad wanting to make sure all was well. But, as I said, I was proud to show off. Have been ever since!

For me it was finding my Dad's jockstrap and trying it on...instant hard on! After that, seeing my 7th grade gym coach in his jockstrap and I was completely hard and hooked on these magnificent and unique masculine sports equipment!

Several things along the way:
1. Looking at my baseball cards when I was a kid (I know, how wholesome) and imagining the players in the locker room in jock straps (I know, not so wholesome). Wasn't even exactly sure what a strap was, but I had enough of an idea
2. Putting on a jock strap in my bedroom when I was in 7th grade (required for PE, but rarely worn) and not being able to get it on because my dick was so hard.
3. Seeing this HS guy named Tom walk by and seeing his pubes sticking out of the pouch of this strap.
4. First time seeing furry guys in porn with their faces buried in each other's straps.

Having to wear jockstraps for PE class got my jockstrap fetish cuming.

I was in my friend Todd's bedroom with him after he got home from baseball practice. He changed while I was reading his MAD magazine. When he took his pants off I saw him in his jockstrap and I had never seen one before. Wow! The way the pouch caressed his dick and balls (I could see the outline of the head of his dick through the pouch) and those straps seeming to lift his little ass cheeks - Man was that sexy! I hated baseball but I wanted to have a jockstrap like Todd did as fast as possible!

That night I went rummaging through my dad's underwear drawer and found his! I put it on and it was too big to stay on my hips, but my hard on kept it from falling off. I have an older brother too, so I went to our bedroom and looked through his underwear drawer and found he had one too! I didn't know about masturbation yet, but I was so turned on looking at myself in the mirror wearing nothing but a jockstrap! I just didn't know what to do with myself!

What triggered me was seeing my dad and older brother changing into these jocks... were there that was for swimming, gym workouts, or anything that required doing anything physical. I mainly like them wearing them under their swimsuits, as I could see their waistband raise up to about their suits. Or even better the strap lines show throw. I would sneak their jocks and try them on, but there are too big for my small frame. I was excited when I got my very own strap to fit in with them. I felt so grown up. I also equated jocks with being male.

 

[briefsguy773]

what started it was definately seeing all my friends and teammates wearing jocks starting in 6th grade. it was part of the mandatory gym uniform. what sealed it for me was one of the first boys i experimented with would never get naked for me to suck him off. so whenever he was horny usually after practice or playing basketball he'd invite me over and he would either pull his shorts and jock down under his balls or pull them aside thru the leg opening and i'd suck him off.

Love to see your collection!

Have a full box in the closet too. Had to free up some room in the drawer.

 

[Opinionman]

I love this thread. So much in common. I feel like I already posted this but I don't see it here so maybe I put it somewhere else.
I switched to an all-boys private school in 6th grade. I recall reading the student handbook which listed athletic clothing requirements including'Athletic supporter(7th grade and up)'.
I had to ask my mom what an athletic supporter was. She said it was athletic clothing to protect my penis. Guess that shows she was a woman; it's about providing some protection for a guy's BALLS, not his dick so much.
Anyway, the supply company put in fresh clothes once a week into small lockers, and I guess they didn't care about the"requirements' since in 6th grade I received a Bike jockstrap. Like so many of you, I had seen older guys in jocks, and when I tried mine on I'm pretty sure I started to get hard. I took it home for further inspection.
Well, I was hooked and spent a lot of time surreptitiously (or so I imagined) gazing at all the guys in jocks in the locker room. Did this from 6-12 grade. It was the most overwhelming fetish of my life. I stole lots of straps from football players' lockers. Their lockers had extra large open mesh squares, perhaps an inch square or a little more. The technique was to poke part of the waistband thru the open mesh square from the inside of the open locker door. Then when you closed it, the jock was at least hanging on the inside for airing out. It was the work of a moment for me to grab the loop created by this method from the outside of the door and yank it thru, take it home, beat off.

My cousin played baseball before I did. I remember seeing his white jockstrap and cup in the hamper. Damp, musky, some piss. I buried my nose in it haha. Tried it on. I was like 10 I think.

@Always Strapped and @billTO: After many years of denial, I, too, finally admitted and accepted that I was homosexual in 1977 at the age 23. I actually credit Anita Bryant for that. Her campaign of hate at the time forced me to get honest with myself or live a lie for the rest of my life. I still remember the exact moment it happened and where I was. A huge emotional burden was suddenly lifted, replaced by a budding sense of genuine self pride for the first time in my life. As for my first jockstrap sighting, it involved the lifeguard at the swim club my family belonged to. His name was Phil. Tall with a lean swimmer's build. I was probably 11 or so. He was at least 16 because he was driving and had his own car, a new Chevelle Malibu coupe. Rich kid, unlike me. I caught him changing in the locker room one day. We were engaged in small talk as he took off his trunks and showed an incredible, heavy bulge in his now-classic Bike 10 jockstrap. I was fascinated by that unique item of male undergear. Then he removed the jock and revealed one of largest penises I've seen to this day. His large ball bag hung low. He also had an amazing forest of dark, dense pubic hair. I didn't understand the sexual feelings which I was experiencing at that moment but knew I liked it. It would be a few more years before I received my first athletic supporter for high school P.E. class, a Champion Atlas. I've been hooked on jockstraps ever since.

When I was in Junior High I shamelessly looked through catalogs, the under/swim wear area of stores, and watched dudes at the beach or pool. Never a lot, but always handful of sexy AF guys would be in speedos or jocks under running shorts. My cousin, Clay, is 4 years older than me, ane when he went to a Catholic All Male High School, the brothers made all the guys wear jock straps under their uniform pants, as well as when in sport. Clay and I were running an errand when I asked why wear a jock under the dress uniform...He leaned back and rubbed his crotch and said to show off what you got...like this! His bulge is his shorts was huge, and he unzipped and showed off his bulge as we drove. I lapped at it until he whipped his cock out and face fucked me. A couple of years later when he had really packed on muscle, he gave me his first jock...

 

[jimjinoc]

For me HS football late 70's, hanging in the locker room with the teamates all strapped, thought it bonding to have the pouches highlighted and accentuated and the way the straps would also frame a hot ass was in my mind a celebration or homage of becoming a man.

 

[Autobear76]

Mine is a whole lot less interesting..... I was never in sports, but I was looking for a way to minimize discomfort and soreness of my package. I had a doctor suggest trying a jock. I was soon hooked! The comfort was amazing! Now I frequently wear jocks as my regular underwear. I'm no jock, but I've got a sexy secret!

I don't know if its sport or too much rough sex, but my balls often are sore and so I usually wear a jock under my clothes for support. Really comfortable.

Blue balls?

 

[excanuck99]

Perhaps but I jack off a lot. Perhaps too much. I don’t know.

Make sure to drink plenty of water! Dehydrated balls are never happy according to my urologist!
