Never known any guys that do that (not that I've asked them what's under their bathing suits, mind you).
Some board shorts don't have an inner lining. If they don't, they plaster themselves to you when they get wet. Your bulge is prominent, the suit can chafe like all hell, and thin suits become see through if they're white. I suppose in that instance, it would be a good reason to wear boxers. Also, if they're particularly loose around the leg, it's an easy opening to showing your junk, so I suppose that might be part of it as well.
I had no idea my own gender did that. LOL
I actually prefer swim trunks that don't have any inner netting. I imagine it would be super uncomfortable to wear underwear under a bathing suit, because the fabric of underwear would absorb water and be very difficult to dry out. And that could cause nasty skin rashes.
1. To keep things from rubbing together and chafing
2. In the event that the top suit falls off, everything is still covered
3. To prevent the butt crack from showing if the top suit slips (this is apparently different than reason #2)

I think it contains everything better? But yeah I've noticed guys do that lol

Board shorts without a liner suction up to you when you get out of the water completely showing your junk. Also if the shorts have white on them, especially in the groin area, they become see through when wet.
It doesn't make much sense really. But I think it probably has to do with their feeling insecure, or nervous about getting an erection and they want another layer. But why on earth would anybody want wet cotton underwear on under a swim suit?
I do it to add an extra layer of clothing that can cover a possible erection. And maybe in case someone tries to pull my pants down, haha.
I'll be honest here, we I was 15-18 years old I worn underwear under my bathing suit at friends pools all the time, reason - hide my erection!
I wear it because I feel the suit will fall off. It's also feels slightly more comfortable and it feels weird without underwear on.
i've found it more comfortable to be honest and also... it hides that awkward boner a little better ;) just saying! haha
It is to keep their penis from hanging out short shorts or hide their boner keeping it close to them instead of sticking out,
i might start doing this, because the bathing shorts are kind of uncomfortable tbh
This is something I've been wondering for many years. It looks extremely douchy and uncomfortable, and no one can convince me that walking around on a hot beach wearing two layers doesn't feel awful.
Are you sure the underwear wasn't built into their swimsuits? You might have just seen the lining of the swimsuit, which helps hold the swimsuit on.
Maybe they're borrowing someone else's bathing suit?
I didn't know that. I don't. Maybe they want their man bits better contained
Dick too big. Might poke somebodys eye out.
To stop the bulge from showing.. Personally I don't do it though
To hide boners and prevent chafing
I don't do that.
No, I don't.
case they fall off.
