Depending on what you're comfortable with, you can also get used to wearing boxers. I did. There can be some problems for some people wearing briefs. For one, they can actually interrupt digestive procedures of the stomach, cause bloating with people, have known cause chafing on the inner thighs and around the groin area. And, yes, it can make it more difficult to have an erection. I have never heard whether or not it can cause disruptions in male fertility. If that's the case, then quite frankly, all men would have converted over to boxers.
Best of luck with your choice.

Tight briefs are not a good idea. They look good, sure, but don't do you any good. I think the onlyt time you would need to wear them IMO is if you need extra support - like with a hernia! Boxers will feel unusual to start with, but you will soon get used to them. Men's tackle was invented long before tight briefs, so it is meant to hang free!!

Tight briefs can diminish your sperm count. Erections are less likely to turn into accidents in boxers. Guys bottoms look better in something tight.

Super tight is bad. But briefs in general are just fine. But most likely if you are comfortable in them they are not too tight. If they were too tight you probably wouldn't be able to fit in them and your blood supply would be cut off a lot.

Tight briefs will cause low sperm production, if your trying to get your Wife pregnant...
If that happens, then go to the Doctor and ask for a vitamin B-12 shot!
I have recommended this to many people, who had trouble concieving and have spend many thousands of dollars on "fertility drugs" only to have them get pregnant when they try the B-12 method.
I wish you well..

try boxer briefs. They are very confortable and also look better than tighty whities. They still provide the same amount of support and are not loose. It's really the best of both worlds

well, it's usually about temperature of your testicles. Mother Nature made it so, that they gotta stay a bit cooler than your whole body. that's why they're hanging;)
if you wear tight briefs, or you drive all day long etc., they're overheated which can cause sterility:(

Tight brief can affect the functionability of our testicle as high temperature can reduce the number of sperm produced. If continued, the testis becomes smaller

understand male genitalia is located outside the body is to keep it cool and allow the sperm to survive in a hostile enviroment. if clothing presses it up against the body, then sperm counts are lower.. you will NOT become sterile! If you and your wife are trying to conceive, wear boxers and stay out of hot-tubs!!

Dude, go for what's comfortable to you. If you're married and you and your wife are not getting preggies, the maybe switch to boxers, because heat is your little mens' worst enemy, and boxers are def cooler because they let your boys swing.
