From my years in the SCA, I think cups are usually hidden away quite
well, either in pants or under tunics. Since most are often blatantly
modern, this is probably a good idea.
Not only do folks of both sexes think they are useful, they are
required for armored combatants.
However, for those wanting to cover their cups in style, perhaps the
period solution should be sought.

No photos of exquisite examples in this file, but I'd love to add some.
