do you notice any difference wearing polyester underwear to cotton? (feddit.de)

I've read cotton absorbs sweat, whereas polyester repels it, so if I run I should get polyester underwear.

Is the difference very noticeable?

This is to wear with my leggings, because if I go commando my male bits turn to one side.

I hate polyester. It stinks, and I hate the feeling of plastic against my skin. People say it breaths/wicks whatever. I'd wear wool if I was that worried about it. Cotton boxer-briefs are awesome for sports.
