Ugali 0 #1 April 5, 2006 If you had your nuts jammed inbetween your leg strap and your groin (accidently of course. I can't see anybody doing this willingly) would the opening shock cause one (or both) testicles pop?? My gut says "nah I'd be alright." But Its something i wouldnt want to try unless I had invested in some steel balls or morphine. Tom, Tom Tom, Tommy, Tom Love Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Took it a bit lower than I liked - but I got the problem fixed - it was well worth it.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
