The mooseknuckle or manbulge is visible through this man's boxer briefs

A mooseknuckle or manbulge is slang for when the outline or bulge of a man's genitalia (penis and testicles) is visible through clothing. This is normal with form-fitting (tight) swimwear worn by competitive swimmers and divers, and often with cycling shorts (biker shorts) worn by cyclists. A slang word for when the mooseknuckle or manbulge seems erect or pointy includes trouser tent. Other slang words for the mooseknuckle or manbulge includes dick-print. The female equivalent of mooseknuckle or manbulge is cameltoe, which means the visible outline of a woman's genitalia.[1] The mooseknuckle or manbulge tends to be more obvious with clothing such as grey sweatpants. The reason why most men have a mooseknuckle or manbulge through clothes is because male genitalia is on the outside of the body.[2]
