help me out here: when I first put on the leggings on commando before running, my male bits turn to one side, but as soon as I start running, they somehow reposition to the middle and stay put as long as I run and stretch. However, if I only walk, like after stretching on the way back home, they'll tend to fall to one side.
Does this happen to you?
I've read cotton absorbs sweat, whereas polyester repels it, so if I run I should get polyester underwear.
Is the difference very noticeable?
This is to wear with my leggings, because if I go commando my male bits turn to one side.
do you also notice differences if you use ½ lengths or compression shorts?

I bought some leggins for running, cycling, stretching... for winter (sale) and summer.
The summer ones have some translucent bits on the back side of both knees.
There are other summer leggings, completely closed from the same brand that I didn't buy because to me those bits are well placed to get rid of moisture, and are more expensive than the completely closed ones. Maybe the seller used my naivete to convince me to buy the ones with translucent bits?
So, fashion or function? because to me the completely closed ones are more fashionable.
The closed ones are cheaper than the ones with bits, so I assume the ones with bits are better

I basically want to use them as regular sport pants to run, walk, cycle, stretch and given that I have to walk a lot for my job, I may use them daily as a first layer, so my legs don't hurt as much as without them. I'd also like to use em with nothing on them, because they look good like that with no lines (where I live I only see men with the leggings on, with nothing to cover their crotch). The regular pants I have are very loose, I'm tall and skinny built and I always have trouble finding the right pants: long enough to cover my legs and thin enough not to waste too much fabric. The leggings I'm testing (asics, nb) seem to do exactly that.
I'm not going to wear them on social occasions but I may do the groceries with them on.

I'm a nurse. I’m on my feet all day walking (and sometimes running) from here to there and back.
then I have more questions for you:
Do you wear only leggings or scrubs as well to cover your leggings?
I also do a physically demanding job and have to move a lot between places, do even the cheapest leggings help you with leg pain and help keep the muscles in their place?
How often do you wash your leggings?
do you think male athletes are going around with thongs on?
I have no idea, these are my first leggings.
About your link, that's what I meant with double frontal seam, the under armour male leggings like these, but those look like underwear, so the only way to wear them is with running short, right?
do you wear your leggings commando with something over them? or a piece of cloth to secure your manhood and then the leggings?
well I see 4 vertical seams: 1 left, 1 right, 1 middle front and 1 middle back. Online I've seen some leggings have 2 frontal seams around the manhood, that's what I meant.

Am I going to regret keeping them?

I prefer a window seat and have never had to pay extra for one.
how did you do that?
airline offers both the qr code and the boarding pass as a pdf (but I don't have a printer at home). I screenshot the qr code (front and backside) and downloaded the boarding pass to my phone. No services from google were used.
I screenshot the qr code three times because Im afraid quality won't be good enough and I still have to ask: Is the picture quality good enough for the kiosks? Do agents simply check if there is a qr code and the name of the airline and let you board? or do they scan the code?
I've been assigned a seat right before the wings in the middle of a 3 seat row. Is this a good seat? Because I've heard people prefer frontal seats (rows 1 to 15), because engine noise shouldn't be as loud and to choose a frontal seat is more expensive than a seat at the back. I'm not really convinced, because if you have a seat at the end of the plane, you are among the first to leave the plane. Being next to the wings means you have to fight other passengers to board and leave the plane. Is really that calmer at the front side?
Have you ever deliberately checked in physically to get a free window seat? A friend of mine did that and he got it.
This post is going to sound very similar to my last one, but now I only want to make sure I can check-in online from my desktop, download both the qr code and boarding pass as a pdf file to my phone and then either board the plane showing my phone with the pdf boarding pass to the agent or use my phone and the pdf qr code with the kiosk to print the boarding pass and board the plane.
I got all steps right, right?
Everything I can do with the airline app in my phone I can do with my desktop, right? The airline app is the same website with a different format, it doesn't give me anything special, right?

thank you. I appreciate the feeling.
I guess I also have to learn to ignore randoms who post whatever they assume as correct. It stings that posting a legitimate question triggers some people to post accusations, but that's something neither I can control.
I don't get why they want drama.
trying to stop being so thin skinned:
I had an online discussion with a random, we had a short but intense exchange until he replied and then blocked me, robbing me of a chance to reply.
I feel hurt because I couldn't reply. To me that means he won. I feel insulted and angry.
Yes, this is something I should talk to about with a shrink, but the therapist I contacted hasn't replied yet, so I might have to start looking for a new one if this one ain't reliable.
In the meantime I turn to the second best thing I can think of: this channel.
I can try to rationalize it: I cannot change it, I'm letting that guy live free in my mind, letting it go is the rational thing to do.
Except that here I'm not being rational, but emotional and I don't know why this triggers me so much.
Not having the last word triggers me. How would you solve this?

today was supposed to be my first day of therapy and the therapist didn't show up. I'm pissed off. I wasted 2 hours for nothing.
I've sent her a polite message, asking if she's sick and hoping she is well, but in reality I wanted to yell at her. However, if I yell at her, chances are she won't treat me.
Before you suggest to find another therapist, finding a shrink where I live is very difficult and the other ones I contacted have either ignored me or are overbooked. I need therapy and it bothers me to be so dependent on one person.
For those of you who have experienced something similar, how doesn't it bother you?
