Conversations about nudism is certainly what this site should be about, but as they drift away from the original post, they can still be entertaining. Think of it like a Democrat watching Fox News or a Trumpian with CNN. It gives us something to yell at the screen about. I can make us feel better especially when done nude.
Thats the point, if you visit a news website, youll never see a story about a framed arse in a jock strap.
But here, misguided people come to see and revel in that sort of thing.
Its comical.

The drift away from anything that can be reasonably called naturism and towards body parts is what prompts questions like this posted on the Haulover Beach Reddit about people wearing butt plugs at the beach. I am sure that is of interesting to some but it has nothing to do with the intended purpose of clothing optional beaches. As long as we turn a blind eye to this festishization of naturism and nudism it allows those who simply want to pursue the sexual aspect of nudity and want validation from association with naturism.
Its how the adult film industry took advantage of hard fought freedoms gained by nudist in the 50s & 60s and how the online porn industry has captured the use of the term nudist online.
Then let's drift back. Jock straps without a cup are rather dumb. The same effect can be had with jockey shorts, and some of us feel those are unnecessary too. Since we all love to be nude, and we all must wear something at some time or other, what can we say other than being nude feels better than wearing anything?

I have come feel that any clothing that isn't designed to be seen in public is unnecessary.

I couldnt go to work in winter without thermal socks. Or the layers under my jacket. But Im guessing you just like not wearing underpants so justify it by saying all unseen clothing is unnecessary.

Should have said "... unless required for warmth."
I was thinking of underwear, undershirts and sleepwear when I said it.
I'm going out on a limb here and I'm bound to get some grief, but did a homosexual design the first jock strap? It seems to grab one's attention the way the garbed man's cheeks are exposed - no - really framed by the fabric. I'm rather straight in my orientation - and here I'm talking about sexuality, please, not the demeanor of my dong - so my eyeballs don't tend to linger on men's tushes.I do need to admit a certain love for wearing a thong under any damned garment when I'm forced to be dressed, so maybe you can forgive my intrusion into this topic a little. I really love the way my stuff is pulled up, how the shape of the fabric tends to accent my bulge when there's a thong underneath, not to mention the pleasing way the fabric feels between the back parts. That second point is fully lost with a jockstrap since the typical design roams around the outside of the cheeks instead of meandering in the midst of them. It took me some time to come to that conclusion, and I am sure most men wouldn't put up with a thong, finding that small bit of cloth rubbing there to be quite annoying.I'm surprise no one has replied to your comments so here it goes....It's ironic you think that a jockstrap's design is perhaps gay looking, framing the ass cheeks, and yet you like wearing thongs... underwear that goes in your crack, rubbing your man-hole with every step and motion and how "pleasing it feels"!! How "gay" is that?? .... your thoughts/words not mine!How else is a jockstrap supposed to lift and cradle your cock and balls if it doesn't go up your ass? You are correct... the huge huge huge majority of men do not like anything touching their anus, not even a lot of gay guys!! So... the jockstrap straps go around the butt cheeks, framing the ass! Yes it frames the ass and I think that looks great! I doubt that was the primary reason (to frame the ass) but probably to avoid constantly rubbing the anus.
I needed a few days to fully reconnoiter this response to my offering before adding more thoughts, though it seems there is rising tension in this thread on various parts of the subject. Writing about specialty undergarments has taken on a new life here, bringing in such divergent side topics as sex toys to thoughtful bike makers and all the way to dangerous hockey pucks, my my! Aren't we having fun now! Somehow we have gotten waylaid during our clothes-related discussion on this website devoted to no clothes. I will attempt a gentle push back toward pleasure and away from antagonism once I get a thought or so across.
Your response's final point is I'm sure correct, with sound jock strap design bringing the straps around the buttocks to avoid chafing the rectal areas. It makes the most sense.
My question about who designed the first jock strap was meant to be rhetorical, my possibly misguided attempt to re-focus this thread toward the somewhat comical way the view of a man's butt is enhanced by the design. My words were not "gay looking", just that the design was ass-augmenting. My preference for the way a thong feels against me is personal, and I made it clear in my original post that many men would avoid ever seeking that sensation. I was quite purposeful to not draw any distinction between what a gay or straight person may think of the feeling. A contradiction needs to be noted - with the inference that my enjoyment of the confidence and pleasure I experience while wearing a thong somehow predicts that I've got underlying homosexual tendencies, followed closely by the idea that a "huge huge huge majority" of men don't like anything touching their anal region, including many gay men. I question where the statistics for this last point originate. "How gay is that?" That strikes me as an unscientific extrapolation.
How our enjoyment is achieved is only for me and my lover to decide, as it should be for everyone. Anal stimulation of any sort is not looked upon as pleasurable to many, though it does make me wonder how many of us keep their interest in such activities to themselves due to the attached stigma. Even inside the gay community there is an undercurrent of denial when it comes to pleasure gotten from any stimulation "back there". When it comes to science, there is only one place in the male human physique with more nerve endings per square inch than the parts past the testicles - the penis. It benefits no one to ignore what might otherwise bring pleasure due to marginal lessons taught to us when we were young. "That's dirty, don't touch it!" A better lesson for an adult is to clean what's dirty, and stop thinking everything you learned in kindergarten is all you'll ever need to know.
To try to recapture to some humor we've moved away from in this thread, let me end with this: If the bike maker who designed the first jock strap was gay, I think he would have done it with the cloth riding right up the middle instead of around the cheeks. That way, with all the constant attention the perineum and anus got from the fabric against it, the rider would be in a constant state of semi-arousal. And the cup design would have had to be re-designed to accept all that manliness as well! Now watch those pucks!
