As long as this doesn’t turn into a scratch -n- SNIFF excersise…
I too have the belly button/penis correlation. (Damn, that sounds almost scientific!) However, while I found the sensation to be a little odd, I would not clarify it as painful.
In fact (and this will PROBABLY fall under the “too much information” files):
It was me doing this as a young pup which got me thinking about my penis in a different light, shall we say.
Yep. Got my little bald pre-pubescent dick hard!

[[Well, don’t scratch your ass with the tip of your penis!]]
That’s the best answer of the lot.
I scratched the top of my coworker’s buttcrack, and it caused a pain in my jaw. Does anyone else have this happen to them?
It is too clear, and so it is hard to see.
There are a lot of weird nerve links in the body. David Feldman covers a lot of them in his books.
Some people find that lightly playing with the belly button and then the following sensations pretty erotic. Yep… that would be some people.
I opened the door, and look who I found. Damn I’m good
My advice to you Revtim…see a doctor and get rid of it!

Revtim: You are not alone… sort of. Scratching that very same area (mine, not yours!) makes me need to pee. Somewhat similar wiring, I guess, but no pain–just pee.
PCW- What, his penis?
Actually, this probably falls into the jurisdiction of the Too Much Info Dept., but the very top of my buttcrack, right on the tailbone, is a major erogenous zone. Anyone else have one there, too?

I got the bluuuuuuuuuues so bad…
I went out to Hollywood Boulevard and asked 300 passers by your question. 140 of them slapped me in the face. The men had no clue either.
I gotta agree with ou on that one, neuro. That is a major hot spot for me as well. back of the neck too. OK enough of that. I am at work.
so you found a girl who thinks really deep thoughts. what’s so amazing about really deep thoughts? Tori Amos
“Revtim” huh? Shouldn’t that be Rectim*?

Rectim? It nearly killed Tim.

Somewhat different (but possibly related) is
that when I was younger (I am now 55) there
was a small area of the left side of my scalp
which, when scratched, would produce an itching sensation in the outer corner of my left eye. I have not noticed this for maybe 5 or 10 years however. Could this also explain the frequently observed dog-leg-shaking-upon-belly-being-scratched syndrome?
This is one of my all-time favorite threads, you guys are hilarious! (Gilligan, you rock!!)
But I think you’re really just re-inventing acupuncture. I can just see that ancient Chinese mandarin saying to the other, “You know, I stepped on a pin yesterday, and suddenly my headache was gone. Maybe we could put this to medical use?” And the other says, “Now that you mention it – whenever I scratch my butt, my yang tingles. Hey, I think we’re onto something here!”
Rich: exactly how did you pose the question to the 140 women that slapped you in the face?
The butt bone’s connected to the… aw, nevermind.
The odds that the bread will fall butter side down are directly proportional to the cost of the carpet.
I’m with Pantelle, it makes me wanna pee too. In fact, thanks a lot Revtim, I’ve just wetted my office chair.
