Abstract
The means comprises a support insert pad protruding inward within the crotch portion of any men's garments that are worn next to the skin. The support insert pad is positioned to be behind the testicles of the male to provide a lifting and support platform for the testicles while allowing for the rest of the garment to hold the genitals stable against the body. The shape of the insert support pad is in a crescent form that fits the vacant area behind the user's scrotum.
