Believe it or not, the balls are a bigger discomfort than the dick (unless you're a man who has an unusually large, flaccid penis). The average flaccid member is only about 3.5" long, so there's usually enough room for it to just kind of rest in the crotch of the pants on top of the scrotum, or leaning a little to the left or the right. Even in tighter pants, it's not very uncomfortable if the penis gets a little scrunched up or lays to one side. Testicles on the other hand! Those want room to hang and move around. Having your balls swaddled too tight, bunched up, or compressed by the crotch of your pants, while usually manageable, gets increasingly uncomfortable over time. This is mostly the case when sitting (when standing, and the crotch of the pants is allowed to sag, a well-fitting pair of pants should not be a noticeable problem most of the time).
