Buying a jockstrap without your parents knowing and I don't play sports?

I want buy a jockstrap. They seem like they would be comfortable but I don't want people to think I'm gay...cause I'm NOT. Anyway, I don't want my parents finding out either. I'm getting in JROTC at my school but I don't know if that would be an acceptable reason to get one either. How would I go about getting one without them knowing. I mean, I don't play sports (but like I said I'm getting in JROTC), I just think they would be comfortable.

I know that athletes wear them but the thing is, I'm not an athlete. Plus, my PE teacher's have never required us to wear one. I know where to get them, I just want to know how to get it inconspicuously. I just would think they would feel comfortable.

    You can go any sporting goods store, Target, Wal-Mart, K-Mart to buy a jockstrap. There is nothing about wearing jockstrap that makes one gay. If so lot athletes would be gay.

    I was not in sports also but we were required to have supporters for PE class in junior and senior high school. I came to appreciate the comfort and support of the jockstrap. Wearing one now.

    Wearing a jockstrap even if you are not playing a sport is great for a guy to support the family jewels daily. Bike jock are great for all day wearing.

    Don't be embarrassed Dude, with the store clerk! This gear is so expected and everyday normal to buy as sports and athletic wear. It's like... seen as buying a bicycle helmet to protect yur head and no different. Be proud to be a Dude man, and hold yur head high and be proud of all the stuff that comes with the territory. We get way too much inhibiting crap pushed on us when we're still little, and it can be tough to shake it off. I would be proud to walk in there with you, but I don't live where you live. I'm more yur age, but I bet that yur Dad would feel the same way about it that I do. Wanting the best for you Dude :- )

    They are more comfortable. We were required to wear them for P.E. and that's all I wear now. No big deal, just go to any sporting goods store and buy one. I recommend the new Bike jock. I think they come two in a pack. If you feel uncomfortable buying them, add a pair of socks or t-shirt and it wont stand out so much.

    I have the same problem. But i want boxer briefs. I'm afraid of what my parents will say. Just go buy it, Try it on when you come home, If you like how it feels Hide it WELL! and wash it yourself etc!

    Hope this helps!

    Why?

    I know you think they would be comfortable but they are not you get chaffing, and it is better to just let it hang man... There is really no reason why you need a jockstrap.
