Kebranozes Lady Cops Strike Testicles Again

• Almost every "Living Darwin Laurels Winner" won the title through 1 of these, since the criteria for that involves surviving the incident (contrast to most winners who die), but taking enough harm to the gonads that you're however unable to reproduce.
  • Ane story involved a handicapped man attacking a burglar with his crutch. The burglar lost his nuts. He didn't get amend.
  • Another guy blew off his nuts with a BB gun.
  • A drunken human being one time tried to have sex with a raccoon. Permit's just say that teeth were involved.
    • Vengeful raccoons score some other Darwin survivor when a hunter pursued one up a ability pole. Either the man or his quarry triggered a massive electrical discharge, which fried the man's genitals and necessitated their amputation.
  • A guy pleasured himself on a slice of running heavy mechanism.
  • A man was found dead face-downwardly on his couch... that had a hole in the cushion with a portable belt-sander beneath (sans sandpaper). Turns out the guy died of electric stupor when a liquid came into contact with the plugged-in sander.
  • A couple guys used a pistol cartridge to go along their motorcar running when a fuse blew. Naturally, it went off, hit the driver in one of his testicles, acquired him to lose control of the vehicle, and resulted in a fatal crash.
  • Another Darwin Honor winner injected cocaine into his urinary tract, resulting in severe priapism that led to gangrene that cost him his penis, his legs, and nine of his fingers.
  • Some other fellow, bleary later on heavy drinking and several nights of having his sleep interrupted by a noisy chicken, staggered exterior unclad in the night to chop the annoying fowl's caput off ... only to mistakenly dismember his ain penis in identify of the craven's cervix.
  • Another winner was a man who got sexually aroused past having his wife press an unloaded double-barrel shotgun on his testicles and pull the trigger. The last fourth dimension they did this, the man had forgotten to unload the gun after a hunting trip that solar day.
  • Still another winner blew off his nadges when he stuffed a sawed-off shotgun down the forepart of his pants.
  • One man was reported as having been brought to the emergency room wearing zippo just a shirt and a bloody towel with a groin full of porcupine quills. How they got there is strictly speaking a matter of conjecture (the patient being distinctly incoherent due to alcohol and hurting) just in that location are non that many possibilities.
  • Inflicting ane of these earned some other beau a Darwin Honour when he tried to make up one's mind the sex of a convict grizzly bear by climbing into its zoo enclosure and kicking it in the crotch from behind. The animal was male and not happy about this trope, resulting in a more standard Darwin win for getting one'south self stupidly killed.
  • Finally, mention must be made of the animal rights activist who attempted to costless a lobster from a fish market by smuggling information technology in his pants, just for the lobster to snip off his family jewels.
• Liverpool defender Phil Babb taking a goalpost to the nads is one of the most recycled clips on football game boner shows.
  • As bad every bit that looks the impact is spread out over a larger expanse. Try having a single testicle crushed between the toe of a soccer cleat and 1's pelvic os. Crying is recommended but non easy...
• Monkey Steals the Peach ◊.
  • "The bear on will lift the enemy off the ground."
• A popular prank in existent life:

  Guy: What is the capital letter of Thailand? BANGKOK! (cue owies)

  Yous know what my favorite play is? The Nutcracker! (GAH!)

  Did you lot know I got a job at the airport? Oh yeah, what do you practise? Check Baggage! (OUCH!)

  What do you demand to start a farm? Two acres! (AUUGH!)

• Doritos.
• "Posting" was an old method of English playground bullying. Step 1: discover your victim, preferably smaller and weedier. Step 2: hold his artillery and get two others to concur each leg. Step 3: separate legs and run him full-tilt into a nearby post.
  • The "wedgie" - forcibly yanking a victim'southward underwear upward from behind - is a comparable bullying tactic.
    • A straighter example of the trope, though, tin be constitute in the "melvin", which is a wedgie, only from the front.
• In foil fencing the groin shot is a legitimate movement, the target area beingness the torso and crotch. It'due south also legal in Epee, but in that everywhere is a legal target. The only time information technology isn't legal is with slashing weapons, like a saber. Getting stabbed in the nuts isn't a pleasant experience.
• This Finnish battle cry during WWII: "Burn at their balls!"...because their militiamen tended to fire 'high' because they permit their rifles wiggle upwardly in their hands when they fired. Urging militiamen and raw recruits to fire at the enemy's groins or feet is a trope every bit quondam as gunpowder warfare itself.
• Baseball
  • Cardinals outfielder Matt Holliday took a line-drive to the pills in a game versus the Dodgers. The fact that this was A) The would-be third out of the ninth inning with a Cardinals' lead and B) A playoff game in C) a serial the Cardinals would go along to lose means that we'll be seeing that replay for a long time to come. Cardinals fans will react predictably.
    • Another Cardinals player, this time catcher Yadier Molina, suffered an even worse example. On May 6, 2018, Molina was nailed in the junk by a 102 mph foul tip from Chicago Cubs concoction Kris Bryant. Molina had to undergo emergency surgery for a traumatic hematoma that would bench him for a calendar month.
  • Then-Seattle Mariners 3rd baseman Adrian Beltre, who doesn't wear a loving cup, took one to the happy place and was put on the DL for a severely bruised testicle. What makes information technology funny is that Ken Griffey Jr had the Mariners PA play The Nutcracker Suite during Beltre's get-go at-bat back.
  • Also back in 1997 on the Mariners, reliever Josias Manzanillo took a Manny Ramirez comebacker right to the groin and had to go a testicle removed!
  • Such incidents seem to be commonplace in Seattle Mariners history. In 1980, bullpen Mike Parrott took a liner to the man area early in the flavour. Parrott went from 14-12 in 1979 (the squad went 67-95) to 1-16 in 1980.
  • This poor umpire concluded up on the wrong cease of a fastball from Washington Nationals pitching phenom Stephen Strasburg. The catcher missed (or barely grazed) the ball. The sound you lot hear is (fortunately) the umpire's cup, but when a ball hits the homo region at 96 MPH, there's only so much a cup can practise. (The count later this pitch was one ball, one strike. Make of that what yous volition.)
  • Phillies first baseman John Kruk was holding a runner on first when pitcher Mitch Williams threw a ball over to keep the runner on. The ball bounced and hit Kruk right in the nads. In an uncommon twist, test of the injury really revealed that Kruk had testicular cancer, which, cheers to beingness caught early, was successfully treated ^annotation Perhaps again in line with this trope, the handling involved surgically removing a testicle.
  • 2022 saw Oakland Athletics outfielder Billy Burns foul a pitch off the clay, which promptly bounced upwardly between his legs and him straight in the pills. (Some baseball players, outfielders in particular, are known not to wear cups.) He actually finished the at-bat but later had to leave the game due to a "testicular contusion" (or in layman's terms, a hobbling testicle) - and, yeah, those Exact Words were the official study used past the squad, which the announcer for the Athletics was forced to read on-air. The injury (not to mention technical and extremely revealing nature of the verbiage used to describe it) promptly made Billy Burns a peak trend on Twitter... which must have been a huge consolation later getting his eggs scrambled.
    • The Athletics seem to have a trouble with baseballs and testicles. In 2022 the A's' Mitch Haniger fouled a pitch direct off his family unit jewels and had to exit the game. Later that night, the cyberspace would come to find out that the official diagnosis was a ruptured testicle. YIKES.
  • On June 12, 2016, Cleveland Indians tertiary baseman Juan Uribe had to be carted off the field after suffering a testicular contusion from a ground brawl from the Angels' Mike Trout that came off the bat at 106 mph. It was his last game in the majors.
• Cricket is only equally notorious as baseball game for errant low blows, some of which really managed to destroy the protective cups of the batters who get hit.

• According to an Urban Fable, an old martial artist challenged a roomful of martial arts masters to knock him down. 1 by one they tried and were countered. Then Bruce Lee stepped forward and kicked him in the balls. ^note Realistically, martial arts probably have some training confronting this potentiality)
• Juggling with poi involves spinning two weights on the cease of a rope, elastic or — oh horror — chain. Beginners spend much of their time striking themselves in the face; ''male'' beginners, on the other hand...
• This guy took a tennis ball to the nads For Science!. Said tennis ball was travelling at 50 mph. Yous can weep now.
  • Ditto for this combat ki instructor, who takes a full-force kick below the belt from a 6'8", 290 lb (that's ii.03 meters and 132 kgs) MMA fighter. The target's mastery of gainsay ki allows him to No-Sell the set on.
• Nasty The Equus caballus, who posts various videos online of him finding new and wince-inducing ways of destroying his testicles.
• A guy takes a bite to the scrotum from a bluefish.
• This prank in a segment chosen "With Friends Similar These" featured on the Apr 28, 2010 episode of The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
• Visitors and potential visitors to Half dozen Flags Magic Mountain should exist enlightened that the spinning roller coaster Greenish Lantern: First Flight has a problem with the spinning mechanism, the rubber harness blueprint, or both so that at least some of the riders end upward taking a substantial amount of the force applied on them by the coaster right in the crotch. In a lesser example at the same park, the adjustable seats on the stand-up roller coaster Riddler's Revenge have an unfortunate tendency to abruptly rise when the ride operator releases the safety restraints.
  • Heck, any stand-up roller coaster, particularly those designed past the Swiss roller coaster company, Bolliger & Mabillard, can exist painful in the crotch considering the "seats" are substantially height-adaptable cycle seats with shoulder restraints over them. Riddler'south Revenge at Half dozen Flags Magic Mountain (mentioned to a higher place) and Green Lantern at Six Flags Keen Take chances deserve special mention as they are the tallest, fastest, and near intense of these coasters.
• A famous Russian joke, also riffing on the large numbers and supposed incredible obedience of the Chinese:

  The Chinese Regime asked for assist in curbing population growth. The Europeans, Americans, and Japanese all offered the latest developments in nascency control, just they were all also dull and expensive. The Russians offered to do it for gratuitous and in an instant and won the contract. They sent a number of Russian Army officers, who gathered upwards a line of 100 meg Chinese males.

  Officers: "Ten-hut! Put down your pants!"

  Without hesitation, the men drop trou.

  Officers: Turn to your correct!"

  The Chinese do in perfect unison. One junior officer mutters, "Wish I could get but 10 Russian rookies to practise a right-confront similar that..."

  Officers: "Bend downwardly and accept your neighbour's balls in your oral fissure!"

  Again, they obey without hesitation. Then a soldier came to 1 end of the line and kicked the first Chinese in the balls. The audio of "Chomp, chomp, chomp..." receded in the distance...

• In ane of Rooster Teeth's podcasts, in that location'south one story where Burnie kicked Gavin into a metallic sheet, penis first, while he was taking a piss. Gavin was pissed (as in angry). Sometime afterwards, a drunken Gavin attempted revenge and flubbed it, getting hit once more.
  • Gavin and Michael play "nut-ball" with each other in an Achievement Hunter video. This involves sitting facing each other and taking turns lobbing an orange at each other'southward testicles, the first one to score a hit wins. Gavin loses, which is funny at starting time, but it rapidly stops being funny when he'due south curled upwards sobbing about how much pain he'south in. Even if he did bring it on himself yous can't assistance but feel a bit sorry for him.
  • Gavin shared on a podcast that he once had to undergo surgery for testicular torsion. Substantially, i of his balls had gotten twisted around, so the blood could go in but couldn't become out and swelled upwards similar a balloon. He virtually lost the brawl.
• Although information technology was a petty of both funny and serious, TLC'south "OMG! EMT!" series had a segment with a peculiarly antagonistic former lady who did this to ane of the paramedics who'd been called when she refused to go to the hospital for a process.
• San Francisco 49ers tight end Vernon Davis was, on a play in 2014, tackled via groin grab. The resultant writhing in hurting was completely understandable. See information technology hither

• During the pregame warmups for a 2022 playoff game, Tampa Bay Lightning goalie Ben Bishop took a puck in the groin- from his own teammate, Nikita Nesterov. One painkiller injection later, he earned a two-0 shutout victory.
• In a 2022 NBA playoff game, Golden State Warriors power forwards Draymond Dark-green kicked Oklahoma Metropolis Thunder center Steven Adams in his gonad. All the same, Oklahoma Metropolis blew out Aureate State in response to the groin boot. Draymond Greenish afterward got a fine of $25,000, but he didn't become a suspension.
• Policeman Frank Serpico fired upon an unknown assailant who refused to finish when challenged. Assailant was hit, staggered, just got away. Attacker presents to precinct firm challenge scrotal mutilation past persons unknown. Serpico says "No, that's the guy I fired on." When pressure is applied, the truth is revealed. Assailant, now devoid of testicles thanks to Serpico's bullet, is wanted for rape.
• An farthermost (and non-comedic) real-life example is the case of John and Lorena Bobbit, the latter of whom chopped off the sometime's penis later on he allegedly raped her.
• Word of wisdom: yous may be able to out-fight your lover when you're both awake, merely if they use a weapon or if you lot're asleep or someone fights with/for them? Think again. A begetter shot his girl'southward abuser in the testicles. With a .410 gauge shotgun.
• The candiru is a parasitic catfish that lodges itself in the gills of fish to suck their blood. It lives in the Amazon River and is widely purported to club itself in the urethra of people who pee in the river. Some fifty-fifty claim it can swim up the stream and do then. However, this is all merely an urban fable- the thought of it leaping from the h2o and so pushing itself into a human urethra violates the laws of physics, and the fish hunts by sight rather than scent so is not attracted to the smell of urine. In that location is only one known case of a candiru (a expressionless one, absolutely) being found within a human, and this was about certainly an accident on the candiru'due south office rather than a typical habit.
• During WWII, Major William Fairbairn, who trained many special forces operatives for the Allies, was widely reputed to have a strong distaste for "fighting fair". Supposedly, when explaining the all-time mode to take a man out in a given circumstance, the last step was always "And so kick him in the testicles". As in warfare it's very ofttimes "impale or exist killed", military manus-to-hand combat grooming unremarkably has non much room for fair fighting, so groin attacks are rather common.
• Woe unto any predatory animal, male or female person, that dares attack the ratel, aka the dearest annoy (not the tank named after information technology, though, but information technology is Nonetheless quite a threat, too!)... If they can fight puff adders (extremely poisonous snakes in Africa, where both it and the ratel are from) and consume them, too, they won't hesitate to inspire fear to anybody that dares to become within spitting distance of one! The ratel viciously attacks anyone or any beast that threatens it. As if having immunity to snake venoms, pare thick enough to resist machete strikes, being aggressive enough to chase off lions, and having skunk-like musk glands weren't protection plenty information technology's besides got a reputation for attacking the testicles of large animals similar lions and buffalo. Possibly thankfully, bodily documentation of this behavior is extremely rare, and then it seems that if the honey badgers really do and then, information technology'due south plainly not something they intentionally do on a regular basis.
• Riddick Bowe vs. Andrew Golota I & 2 — Riddick Bowe fought what was supposed to be a tuneup fight with the undefeated Polish heavyweight Andrew Golota in 1996 while waiting on an agreed-upon fight with Lennox Lewis. He ended up getting out-boxed by Golota for nearly the entire fight, only to win when Golota was disqualified for repeated wicked depression blows that at times left Bowe on the canvas in agony. They fought a rematch after Bowe lost the right to fight Lewis, only to accept Golota once once more be disqualified for depression blows, giving Bowe yet another pyrrhic victory. This would signal the finish of Bowe's career at the age of 29, while Golota would continue to get his fight against Lewis, only to be knocked out in the kickoff round.
• In Game i of the 2008 Stanley Cup Eastern Conference Quarterfinals, Philadelphia LW Patrick Thoresen took a shot in the groin. He was hospitalized and told he might take to have i of his testicles removed. He was back on the ice for Game 3.
  • Same affair happened to Sami Salo in 2010. He ruptured a testicle as a result.
  • Nicklas Lidstrom similarly suffered a "nearly catastrophic" testicular injury subsequently a spear from Patrick Sharp in 2009 that required surgery.
• During the Boxing of Stamford Bridge (1066), a lone Viking berserker stood on said bridge and held off the unabridged Saxon army for an hour. The berserker was finally killed when a quick-thinking Saxon soldier floated nether the bridge in a barrel and shoved a spear through his groin from below.
• In the band's "Behind the Music" episode, Metallica pb singer James Hetfield recalled an incident following the infamous pyrotechnic accident during one of their tours where James took the worst of the damage and had to have his arm in a cast during which fourth dimension he couldn't play guitar. One of the tour's technical coiffure accidentally hit James' arm, and James got so angry that he "punched him right in the basics."
• Tom Green essentially sees the time he had cancer equally this (since it was cancer in that particular area).
• Sam Houston took an arrow in the groin at the Battle of Horseshoe Curve, the injury keeping him out of the rest of the State of war of 1812. The Eric Flint Alternate History novel The Rivers of War changed this every bit the point of departure from our universe, the arrow only nicking his outer thigh, after slipping on a dirt mound, leaving Ensign Houston available during the War of 1812 to rally the defenders of Washington, DC (much to the despair of Francis Scott Central).
• Double Subversion with parachuting. An opening and developing awning volition jerk the skydiver upwards (actually information technology is sudden deceleration of the free autumn, non an actual up wiggle), resulting in a sudden strain on the leg harness. Permit's say information technology is nasty enough with a correctly packed parachute and to women. Bruises are commonplace. More serious injuries can result if the parachute has been packed incorrectly and the opening is not smooth but sudden and/or violent.
• Territorial male person seals attempt to bite each other in the groin when they fight, rendering their rivals incapable of competing for females.
• Snails and slugs are hermaphrodites simply prefer to brood equally males, and then attempt to neuter each other with Groin Attacks before mating: whichever snail loses its testes is the one that gets pregnant. Flatworm penis fencing! Isn't nature fascinating?
• Rabbits too target their rivals' tender portions when they fight. Territorial does exercise this when they don't want to make more picayune rabbits. To make matters worse, these fights normally end with said unfortunate bunny issuing the dreaded "rabbit scream."
• Some guy in San Francisco removed his penis with an 10-Acto knife because... it doesn't say why. He wasn't even boozer or high. It was either stupid or information technology was just a severe case of BDD.
  • Similarly, in that location'southward a video floating around online that was (supposedly) an entry for the BME Pain Olympics, which shows a man castrating himself. The championship is only here for those with a bad enough case of Bile Fascination to search for it.
• Removal of the male person reproductive organs (and possibly including the penis itself) was ane of the many, many ways yous could lose a function of yourself in aboriginal Chinese penal codes. Information technology about famously happened to the historian Sima Qian, whom Emperor Wu of Han had castrated for trying to speak up for a general who didn't exercise the honorable affair and commit suicide afterwards he was captured by barbarians. Interestingly, the castration was probably intended to encourage Sima to commit suicide himself; he refused to do so, and instead completed his life's work (the magisterial Shiji ). ^note He also had something of a last express mirth centuries down the line; every bit he had fathered several children before he lost the necessary equipment, it transpired that his distant descendant Sima Yi was i of the central strategists in the war that finally ended the Han Dynasty, and Sima Yi'south descendants eventually founded the Jin Dynasty that ruled all China 280 CE-420 CE.
• The Israeli martial art style of Krav Maga has a thing for groin shots. The whole idea of Krav Maga is "Spiral the rules, apply any and all weak points to defeat your opponent." The groin attack is i of the first things they teach you. Growing out of the mindset not to exercise it is 1 of the offset challenges many Krav Maga practitioners notice themselves going through, specially if they had previous experience with a more traditional martial fine art. In another Israeli martial fine art named Aiki, they call the crotch 'The Electrical Company', equally the body shuts down when it takes a striking at that place.
  • The Israelis aren't the only ones: the French Savate has the chasse Italien, that is a piston kicking to the inner thigh that also hits the crotch (it'south not allowed in normal competitions, but in street fight combat and MMA, it'due south quite helpful).
  • Medieval Italian martial arts transmission Flos Duellatorum (Flower of Battle) specifically shows groin kicks every bit a swordfighting technique, making information technology literally as erstwhile as Feudalism.
• Elephantiasis, resulting from an infestation of parasitic worms in the lymph nodes, can cause an internal Groin Attack, swelling the scrotum to basketball game-size or larger.
• Illustrated sword-fighting manuals from Medieval and Renaissance times include this trope in their arsenal of gainsay moves, both as a target for sword-blows and kicks. Definitely not Hollywood fencing.
• The Groin Attack was the favorite duelling tactic of count Fyodor "The American" Tolstoy, famous Russian adventurer and duelist of the 19 century. In his numerous duels, Tolstoy, a cleft shot, usually aimed for the opponent'due south groin, reasoning that "There won't be a sin of murder on my soul, and he won't exist breeding any more fools". At least one of his opponents — Naryshkin — died from the groin shot anyway.
• At least one (female) psychologist finds the idea of attacking the testes to be absolutely disgusting, and, among other things, suggests calling Groin Attacks "non-sexual genital assaults" to brand them seem less funny.
• Adam Lambert took ane of these at the Manila performance of his GlamNation tour. During the dancers' intros, he dingy-dances with his choreographer, who at this particular prove tried to counter a hip thrust with a butt bump at exactly the wrong time and got The Glam Ane right where information technology hurts. Cheque it out at 8:23 and onward. (This Glambert can't help laughing at his reaction every unmarried fourth dimension... even though it really shouldn't be funny.)
• Many self-defense classes suggest boot an assailant in the balls, so running while he'south notwithstanding in shock.
  • Subverted by other classes that recommend aiming for the shins. (The damage may interfere with the attacker'southward ability to run.)
    • On top of that, yet other classes advise going for the eyes, as a kick to the balls will not do enough in the short-term to hamper an attacker'south ability to hunt after a potential victim.
• Some cultures (predominantly in Northeast Africa) exercise female person genital cut (or mutilation), which involves taking a pubescent daughter and cutting abroad some of the tissue effectually her vagina. Mild cases involve trimming abroad the exterior labia or clitoris, while more than farthermost cases cut away everything and sew up the site, leaving only a pigsty for urine and menstruation to pass through. Some practitioners believe it is a necessary part of raising a girl properly, on the theory that it reduces a girl'due south libido and helps her resist illicit sexual behavior.
  • "Controlling libido" is technically true, in that many affected women can't stand up sex activity at all because information technology'due south so painful, and therefore will not take it. ...If they develop any libido at all. (They often go triggered into flashbacks of their circumcision, besides.) The more than well-intended men who genuinely think this is a good way to find a decent woman are unpleasantly surprised to observe they tin't even consummate their wedlock.
  • Almost the unabridged world thinks it's a gruesome, barbaric, and misogynistic practice that should be concluded. The act is designed to deny the adult female any sexual pleasure, and it is frequently performed in a less-than-medical environment (due east.one thousand. a dirty hut with a large knife). To their credit, both the civil and religious regime in the countries where it exists accept condemned the practice in no uncertain terms. Probably the worst fact is that, usually, this isn't even performed by men, but by one-time women in the overwhelming corporeality of cases, who typically had it washed on themselves by other women and just don't know any better, no matter the amount of horrible screaming involved in the procedure (the girls are fully witting, after all).
  • The more than farthermost version tin as well make childbirth extremely dangerous to both mother and child, if not most impossible. Midwives from countries where FGM is a common practice are ofttimes shocked by how easy (relatively speaking) labor is for women in the rest of the world.
  • From rituals to modern medical facilities, genital cutting has far too oft been bereft of sufficient, if any, anesthesia. Contrasting ceremonial significance in the full conscious feel, hospital operations have varied from misconceptions of homo sensations to inability in administering painkillers (particularly for infants, who in the former were once thought to non feel pain as in later life, at present understood to experience it more vividly, and in the latter are too at gamble from general anesthesia, the only total means of nullifying pain during the procedures). Even if you were knocked out cold, no affair your age or sex, at that place's then the healing process of an open or stitched wound in your unders. Not to mention if it was less...satisfactory than planned. A dangerous prospect to strength on anyone, anywhere, in any conditions.
  • It should as well exist pointed out that male genital mutilation also exists in sure African communities (and in almost Western countries, since circumcision is the only blazon of genital mutilation that is widely considered okay). Some of these rituals are incredibly horrific, such as slicing open the urethra so that it is exposed, removing one or both testicles, and even completely removing the head of the penis. The worst office? Nearly no one talks about information technology when genital mutilation is discussed.
  • Since nosotros need some heartwarming afterward that, permit's not forget the heroic African women who are organizing to resist and end the practice for themselves and their daughters. Equally local women, they know the strategies and arguments that volition be most effective in their ain communities; in some cases, local activists take succeeded in getting their unabridged communities to pass up FGM altogether. And in the US, one of the world's well-nigh famous specialists in genital reassignment surgery, Dr. Marci Bowers (herself a trans woman), has a sideline helping victims of female genital mutilation. Using her feel in performing vaginoplasties for trans women, she performs reconstructive surgery to assistance FGM victims, restoring advent, office, pleasure, and self-esteem. And she donates her services for free. She'southward also helping to train surgeons in Africa to perform the reconstructive procedures. Link.
• Giving birth can outcome in extremely nasty tears effectually the vagina (compared to our closest relatives our adults have narrow pelvises and our babies very large heads; you do the math). Until Penicillin Five became bachelor there in the mid-1950s, in Europe the expiry charge per unit for giving nascency was fifteen% owing largely to gangrene (childbed/puerperal fever) — the current European death rate being less than 0.01%. Of course, the normal/old death charge per unit remains in some of the least economically-adult parts of the world where antibiotics are still an expensive rarity.
• Worryingly plenty, a Groin Assault can occur more or less spontaneously and without warning. It'south called a testicular torsion and is what happens when a testicle twists around a flake too far and cuts off its own claret supply. Not only is it very painful, just the testicle must be untwisted within a few hours or it will die — which, if that wasn't enough for ya, will result in gangrene if it'due south not promptly removed.
• The sadomasochistic do of cock and ball torture. Exactly What Information technology Says on the Tin.
  • Related to the in a higher place, ballbusting: when a man enjoys specifically getting kicked in the testicles.
• For some reason, it's common for people to think that kicking a adult female in the groin is ineffective. Being kicked ANYWHERE is painful. The lack of testes means that a kick to the groin won't be quite as severe, but the female genital region still has nerve endings. A groin attack can even so hurt a fellow member of either sex.
  • Females are besides more probable to suffer permanent impairment from a groin attack, for a number of reasons.
    • Some of this impairment involves (besides nervus impairment) breaking the pubic bones. In the female, these bones are set at an obtuse angle (to facilitate childbirth), and they are more hands accessed. Scissure!!!
  • Whatever girl or woman who has sabbatum down likewise rapidly on a wheel, or tried to hop a fence and slipped, knows but how painful getting hit in the groin is.
  • Enough of playground daughter fights testify how mutual it is for a Groin Attack to floor a daughter with the agony. This trope clarification implies information technology requires trained fighters or specialists to exist able to impairment a daughter with a Groin Assault. Well-nigh of these examples prove how wrong that is.
  • A off-white analysis of why this view is held would point to merely how much of a larger target the testicles are in comparison to the vagina and thus many impacts that would otherwise be a mere glancing blow to a woman is frequently a total-on strike to a man. The vagina also has far greater protection from being grabbed or squeezed, limiting the diversity of ways that she can exist attacked in comparison to him.
    • There merely are not the same cultural barriers involved in striking a boy in the groin equally there are the reverse. Parents, teachers, friends, and regime practice not teach young boys to aim for a girls' crotch if he gets into problem, and if he does for whatever reason, you won't be seeing that on America'southward Funniest Home Videos any time soon. This is also evidenced by the fact that female groin attacks are of an extreme rarity on film and Television set, and when they do show upward such equally on She'south the Man, they are portrayed every bit existence of a minor inconvenience at all-time. Information technology actually isn't all that surprising that many men are in the dark equally to the fact that women also hurt badly down there.
• Don't whiz on the electric fence, or a fence in a lightning storm. Loss of manhood may consequence.
  • Busted past MythBusters.
    • What they disrepair was urinating on a tertiary track. It's simply besides far away for the urine stream to maintain its continuity. On the other hand, it's entirely possible to urinate point-blank onto an electric fence while either barefoot or wet (providing a grounding path). Affair is, near electric fences aren't prepare to impale just simply to discourage creatures like cattle from hanging around besides close to them and possibly breaking out. The resultant shock is noticeable merely not lethal.
    • On the other hand, lightning is going to be dangerous no affair how it hits you: including via a metal fence and a urine stream. Remember that a lightning strike is basically electricity breaking through the resistance of air.
• Also, look up Wikipedia user Tim Nu, who claims to have undergone penectomy at the age of 12 due to a serious infection and now wants to shed lite on the discipline. The picture he uploaded to Wikicommons is pretty Squick-inducing.
