If thy wrinkly, hairy scrotum offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
Not for nothing, but if it came to that, I’d totally follow my scrotum into hell.
That sounds dreadful, and I don’t even HAVE a scrotum! :eek:
If hard liquor puts hair on your chest, I’m guessing daquiri’s or light beer will take hair off your balls.
You’re letting some heterosexist bigotry show here – the same thing happens if boys fondle them.
I can’t think of a better time to post this.
As long as we’re posting YouTube links, I can’t ever see/hear the word “scrotum” without thinking of “The Roar of the Lion.”
I’ve never had an accident with a razor, using any of the 2-4 blade typical Sensor/Mach3/Fusion/whatever razors. It sounds a lot scarier than it is, IMHO. It is much more difficult to shave my neck than my balls.

Thermal management. As sitchensis suggests, there is an optimal temperature for sperm production. Scrotal skin tenses and relaxes in accordance with temperature. You can see this happening in certain situations:
-sit or lie as still as possible and just watch your scrotum. You’ll see areas of skin slowly contracting or relaxing, responding to minor temperature variations.
-Spend ten minutes in a hot bath. Get out, and observe that your scrotum is completely relaxed, hanging as low as possible. It’s too hot, and your scrotum is trying to maximize surface area in order to dump heat. Obviously this isn’t helpful while submerged in hot water, but your scrotum doesn’t realize this (and it works pretty well once you get out).
-Spend ten minutes in cold water, or go for a long walk on a very cold winter day. Or if you’re bold/impatient, apply an ice pack directly to your scrotum. Observe that your scrotum contracts tightly up againts your body. It’s too cold, and it’s trying to minimize surface area in order to restrict heat loss.
Dude, you’ve been watching your scrotum too long. You know just a little too much of this topic, and I’ve had my scrotum over 40 years.

I can, but I don’t think the mods have ever moved a post to the top of the thread.
