>Brief underwear should not be worn under tights for two reasons. One, the lines of the underwear will show through the tights and, two, brief underwear does not give the support a male needs when wearing tights. A dancebelt is what almost all male ballet dancers wear as well as lots of guys who workout in tights. Also, the dancebelt is designed to reduce possible injury. There are two ways to wear a dancebelt with one way being the preferred and sometimes required. Not to be graphic but the preferred and usually required way is in the "up" position.
