Georgette, our favorite Female-Over-Forty blogger is tackling
the issue of men wearing cups.
G. and her readers are discussing the technical advantages of cup-wearing.
There is also a healthy debate about whether men should or should not roll with
them and why. You can read it all here. I thought I would add my two
cents on Cup Culture, among other things.

| Insert junk here. |
I’ve never thought much about the technical “advantages"
or "disadvantages" of my male partners wearing a cup. I’ve also never
been hurt by a cup sparring, though it seems many people have, including the
wearers it was meant to protect. Usually, I do not think about my male
partner's junk at all while grappling. I like to pretend they are Ken dolls. Neutered. As far as I’m
concerned, they have no junk and I’d like not to be reminded otherwise.
Most of the time I am successful in ignoring my male
partners’ genitalia. But there are several times when Shark Girl is oh-so
unfortunately reminded that she is not sparring with the anatomically censored.
And by Jesus, it really fucks with my concentration.
When I feel the cup, all of a sudden my little, private, no-gonads
reverie is smashed. My partner is not
a eunuch, and what is more, now I have to decide if he is a creep. Because the
first thing Shark Girl thinks when she feels something hard down there is, “WTF? This dude better be wearing a cup!” I do not
know whether to avoid the crotch region lest I contribute to this “excitement”
or to do some recon into the area to make sure it is indeed a cup. All of this
decision-making wastes precious time. In addition to thinking about grappling,
now I have to decide whether my partner is “rolling for pleasure” and that butt
grab was really NOT an accident, or whether he is just over-protective of his
balls. Then I have to figure out what course of action will make me most
comfortable in finishing this roll. My partner? He is just thinking about
grappling. He has the advantage.
Dear Reader, this next
section is not for prudes. If you continue reading, you were forewarned!
There is another thing that distracts me in the same way as
the cup. Let me describe a recent scenario:
I was rolling with a male partner. We were having a
splendid, technical time. I moved lithely around his body to maintain position,
and my face happened to end up near his nether regions. On the next
inhale, what did I smell? Semen. Yep. So, either this dude is pre-ejaculating
to my fancy jitsu moves (I can’t be that
good!), or he had a grand old time before class and forgot to wipe the sex off.
I sincerely hope it was the latter. But, color me distracted. Instead of
thinking about how to finish my move, my mind was going back and forth between
creep alerts and visions of my partner in some afternoon delight:
I imagine that these things distract both men and women
alike, providing a distinct technical advantage to the cup wearer or the
pre-class sexy-timer. And there are hundreds of other little
distractors that give advantages, like a period or a fast-food smell.
