Testicular removal

Sign in to disble this ad
What would it take for you to do it?

Cash? what amount?
A chick? who?
Losing a bet? what was the wager?
Illness? what, something like testicular cancer, Bob? (shameless fight club reference)

me? it would take death for me to go through with it.

It's gonna be a fine day on OT when this is the post at the top when I first log on... yikes

Are we talking complete removal, or just 50%? His name is Robert Paulson, by the way.

for death to convince me to get rid of 'em

Of course, by the time ' I'm convinced'..I'd probably be dead....

now lets be clear....are we talking completly remove, with an implant in place, or just snip snip...?

i dont really have an everlasting fascination with my balls, so i would have to say it would only take a medical emergency to get rid of them. as far as for money or some girl, no way. no point. i'm not one to volunteer for pain either, so no bets...

Jeez, why do guys just accept that this is inevitable in marriage. It is only beacuse "we" (speaking generally) allow it.

If you don't have a pair, grown one. If you do, they belong to YOU and you don't give them up to any woman. EVER!!





To get back on topic, mine are staying right where they are unless I hit some dire medical need to remove them. Other than that, they're mine!

But, then you wouldn't be able to use colorful phrases like

"Ain't that a kick in the balls"

or "S*** my balls"

and of course, no more teabagging, and really...without the ability to teabag the Missus on the fly, well, a sad time indeed.

I'm talking completely off. As in no more, gone, bye-bye, balls off.

It would take an absolute necessity.

The losses of having my balls removed aren't effectively counterbalanced by the fact that I could cross my legs for long periods of time.

I don't know.... I am kind of attached to them, in fact, I really like them..

I guess if it came to life or death.. I might.

If it were some life-threatening situation, or it came down to "Your balls or your life", then yeah, I say take 'em.

Well, mine get rather annoying because sometimes they touch the water in the toilet when I'm sitting atop the throne. That truly disgusts me. You ever tried washing yours in the sink? Try it and you'll feel my pain.
However, I am quite fond of them as an accesory. So I would have to say that there is nothing short of testicular cancer that would make me remove them.
