Asking for Sports Underwear

[Atmymtdg57]

For sports do you wear a cup and jock or compression shorts? How do I ask my parents to buy me either one? I'm not old enough to drive yet..

Definitely comp. Shorts, just say you need them, say they 'reduce the risk or injury' try getting the cheap ones from www.eastbay. com

if you are required to wear them your parents will understand so you jut need to tell them.
get the same size you would for your underwear

Honestly just asking works perfectly fine. Its an item that protects your from injury and is designed for sports. It doesn't have to be made into a big deal :)

"I need to get a cup and compression shorts for (type of sport.) Can you take me shopping for it please?"

If it becomes an awkward conversation, you deal with it then, but I doubt it could be too difficult. If it is feeling awkward for you, it probably is for your parents too and they won't want to continue the conversation either.

You just ask - its not awkward its sense.

Well for baseball I wore either a jock strap and cup or sliding shorts (compression shorts with a spot for a cup), and for basketball I wear compression shorts.

i like a jockstrap better than compression shorts cause it leaves my legs free.
if i need a cup i slip one of those in.
my dad buys my jocks and cups for me. usually i dont have to ask but if some have worn out i'll let him know so he can buy new ones.

Compression Shorts. Ask your parents, if you play a sport I don't see why they wouldn't.

just say you coach told you you need one to play whatever sport
