If I hold my arm parallel I can squeeze the skin under my elbow really hard with no pain.

I assume this is normal. No?

I can squeeze my wenis pretty hard too, barely hurts at all. My (now ex) brother in law taught me how to pinch my wenis like that.

Yes, normal. It’s not the most sensitive of areas, thank goodness. Can you imagine how uncomfortable life would be if our elbows were as sensitive as, say, our lips?

One time a young lady and I rubbed our wenises together, but it didn’t really do anything for either of us, so we stopped.
