Diaper Service: Nasty Spinoff

So in the diaper service post below soemone (forgot who sorry!) said would you wear someone else's underwear?  Ewww.

Um yah....  that type of service used to exist.  It was called the "jock roll" my friends.

For 1$ at the college my dad went to, you could "rent" a jock strap, t-shirt, and gym shorts, all rolled up in a handy bundle, for your workout at the college gym, then turn them back in afterwards, and they laundered them for the next guy.  I beleive they continued this service well into the early 90's. 

My dad thought it was great- he could go workout during the middle of the day and all he needed was his sneakers!  I kid you not.

    What's even grosser is that guys actually wear jock straps!  I've never known any who did.

    seriously, all the boys I went to HS with wore jock straps for sports. Especially contact sports! Yikes. I wouldn't want to run around without one if I was a guy!

    That said, I wouldn't want to wear someone else's... I suppose if it had been washed on super hot or something it would be clean but still its pretty icky. That said, my HS had a laundry service for our sport  uniforms. You turned your shirt and shorts in and got a fresh pair every day. We also had mandatory sports so that was a nice bonus.

    Don't you have to wear a jock strap to hold a cup in place?  Like for baseball?  they have always given me the heeby jeebies.  I mentally categorize them as being the male thong.

    The thought of male crack-floss makes me want to heave.
