Why do guys wear compression shorts now instead of jockstraps?
I know the answer to this one through many years of playing goalie in various lacrosse leagues.
Jock straps tend to cut deeply into the skin and become uncomfortable very quickly. Compression shorts, on the other hand, serve the same purpose while fitting comfortably (like boxer briefs almost).
A:
If the straps from your jock were cutting deeply like that, then you were wearing a strap that was too small. You need to move up a size. Compression shorts don't give the same support as jockstraps. And since they trap more sweat against the skin they are much more likely to cause jock itch and other rashes.
I think the real reason so many young guys like compression shorts better is modesty. A jock doesn't cover much so guys feel exposed even though they have shorts or whatever on over the jock. And when they change they are more exposed in them. I also think it doesn't help that so many think jockstraps are sexy, and so they are used a lot in gay porn. Younger straight guys who use the web a lot pick up on that. Then they think that if the gays like them, then jockstraps must be gay. So then they don't want to wear a jock because they don't want people to think they are gay, or have gay guys looking at them.
I am 33 and I wear a jock. I have to agree a lot of guys my age think they are "gay". I am very athletic and all of my friends kid me about wearing a strap, but now I notice more are wearing the basic white ones. If you play a very physical sport like rugby, football and others, wear a jock. Especially if you run, put "the boys" in a strap. Your balls will thank you later.

The vast majority of Balks are called on the pitcher, but a Balk can also be called on the catcher. With runners on base, if the catcher steps out of the catcher's box before the pitcher releases the ball, it's Balk on the catcher. When this happens, it is almost always while attempting to give an intentional base on balls.
