Help: What to Wear Under Boardshorts...

I know this is REALLY of topic and even a lttle out of season, but what, if anything, do most guys wear under boardshorts? I got my first pair not long ago, and I went to to an indoor swim party commando. To my embarrassment, I was partially exposed the whole time cuz they were kinda loose and sagging...Any suggestions?

Sometimes I wear briefs or boxer briefs- they give a little more support. Usually, i don't wear white though because they go see-thru

Isn't that like swimwear though? That's what it looks like from the photo.

Sorry, I don't do American. I'm an immigrant so I am not a clothing (or especially clothing name) expert, so I apologize if I sound stupid.

It's not like swimwear, it looks like it but it doesn't have the net that swimming trunks do. Thats why you need to wear boxers.

commando - if actually used for surfboarding

boardshorts when actually used for surfing are to be used commando - any inner lining or elastic causes irritating friction. Note that some board shorts are not really board shorts at all because they have a mesh lining.

If used as casual wear - please wear some type of undies of your choosing!

hey, I just realized I own boardshorts (can't really think about summerwear in NYC in April). I usually use them as swimwear actually and go commando but when I wear them casually (usually to play sports or something), I'll wear boxers underneath.

Are you like this guy and wear your boardshorts with nothing else? Hmm. Maybe while playing sports or swimming right?
