I've never worn one, basically because I couldn't decide what to buy or what would be easy to use.
Had a few close calls recently with the sergeant and his troops that have seriously made me reconsider this choice.

Never, only when I have to for MMA bouts.
Never roll without one, hate when I have to compete without one. Feel nervous when my nuts aren't protected. I use the diamond mma cup and it's awesome, my training partners complain that it can be a bit painful for them when I get their back so I don't hip in from there. I understand why they ban them from some comps, it just makes me queezy personally
I only use one for mma days at my gym. I hate wearing one so bought the smallest one that I could physically cram my shit into lol. I would never tell anyone not to wear one but it does suck when someone goes for an armbar on me and theyre wearing a cup. The extra fulcrum has tweaked my elbows numerous times.
I don't wear one during while karate sparring, do wear one during jiujitsu since i kept getting balls smashed when I got knee sliced passed
So do you make the ladies wear cups?Quote:

jock strap with steel thai cup covered by compression shorts every training session. Has kept me pain free of knee slices and nutt kicks for a couple years now. If im gonna compete wearing it then I might as well train wearing it. I try to do as much as possible with a mouth piece in 2 so it doenst mess with my head if im tired or something
Always wear one unless its not allowed, you can never really get used to getting knees or elbows to the groin...full on kicks accidental or not hurt much more without the protection
Thai steel cup, super cheap, nearly indestructible, hurts whoever hits me while I feel nothing, makes my junk look bigger. It's an all around win.
I use to only wear cups with spats, so that my dong piece wasn't just chillin in peoples faces. Now I just wear shorts over my spats. I actually find the cup super uncomfortable, and usually if you get your nuts hit during rolling, it was your own fault it happened. Either way, i live a cupless life.
