Is a tight compression short for the gym more fun to wear than an equally tight swimming jammer?

This is an interesting question. I have owned lots of both of these. THe individual products vary a lot with respect to fit and feel.

The compression shorts suiatable for a gym workout vary a lot in the fit, feel, tightness and compression. Some I like better than others, but I seldom form an opinion without several weari to get into them, struggle though it was. I would come home at the end of the workday and the firstthing I would do is crawl into my compression gear!

Compression shorts have not been commonplace since maybe starting in the early 1980s. I recall buying my first pair around that time. The first pair I bought fit really really snug in part because they were made from a heavier stretch material than is commonly used nowadays.. Initially, I guess I thought maybe too snug, but I soon warmed up to wearing them and enjoing the tension they placed on by lower body and especially to my groin area. Soon, I was at a point where I could not wait to come home at the end of the day and crawl into them, struggle though it was. I quickly realized that the struggle was an important part of the fun!

Meanwhile, however, I was starting to enjoy the shiny and slick swimming jammers as well. I would be the first to announce that the fit and feel of a swimming jammer is different from that of a compression short. In the case of the jammer, the material was shiny and slick and designed to move through the water, a very different purpose than for most compression gym shorts. The whole idea is to not have any extra fabric to slow you down. And that means the best fit is way snug and tight. The guy wearing the jammer is enjoying himself physically and psychologically is a bonus.

At their best, both the compression shorts and jammers optimally fit tight enough to hold a penis persistently in the super-fun "up" position. In both cases, if you get too carried away enjoying yourself with an upward-pointed penis, you will likely start to drip precum which means that you will soon have a quarter-dollar-sized damp spot on the front of the compression short or jammer. But given the fun you are having in such confined spaces, that is a small price to pay!
