Could a person get fored for this

I read an article about about men who get saline injected into their scrotum, inflating it to the size of a basketball. Could a man who does this get fired when he comes into work with a basketball-sized scrotum in his pants? Would he have to explain what is in his pants?

no further message

Where do you… I mean where does he work?

I suspect that a human being who would do that to his own body would have a hard time holding down a steady job anywhere. :eek:

With all due respect I suppose anything is possible but this sounds like total and complete BS. Please provide a link or cite for this “article”.

I may be missing something, but why in the world would any man want to do that in the first place? :confused:

Tell’em you suffer from elephantiasis. I’ll leave it to you to find the pictures. Doing it deliberately, however, is a new one on me.

If you like… um… injected all this saline into mr johnnysack I imagine there would be lots of pressure and said little injection hole would become a squirt gun of sorts. Tell me BZ00000 does that happen when you do that?

Not that I mean YOU… just you as in general… :wink:

You know, if I read an article about someone doing that to himself, my first question wouldn’t be “I wonder if he’d get fired for going to work that way?” As a matter of fact, I’d probably come up with at least fifty other questions first…

Oh it is real all right; I’ve seen pictures(I was skeptical, just like you). The technique is called Saline infusion but a link would be quite inappropriate.

:cues in **AC/DC’s ** I’ve got big balls:

I’m with LolaBaby I want to know why?

Yes, why in the name of all that’s true and good? Or otherwise, even?

Come on; people do all sorts of bizarre things; this is just one of them.

I think this was mentioned in Savage Love in the Onion’s AV Club site a week or two ago.

Or straight from the horse’s mouth:

I can’t attribute that quote without posting an inappropriate link though.

Okay, here’s a WAG on an answer: possibly. Companies already hire and discipline based on personal appearance. I can imagine that even an employment tribunal could be convinced that firing someone in a customer service role who had voluntarily undergone saline infusion is acceptable.

Wow, I saw the pix. Some people are nuts , I’m telling ya.

Nah, on second thought I think it is just a hoax.

Side note: It is interesting that a photo now carries much less weight for me than it did (say) five years ago. Knowing how easy it is to fake photos and having seen so many on the Net has made me very skeptical and a photo no longer is a guarantee of anything for me. I think those photos can easily be fake.

The pix I saw are nowhere near the size of a basketball but maybe a bit bigger than a baseball but still. . .
The whole site is crazy. They also do “Labial Saline Infusion” on women’s vulvas and some other things. If this is real there are some very sick people out there but I tend to think it is probably a joke.
