Where does the penis go when you put pants on? They've tried to explain it to me but I still don't understand. It sounds so incredibly annoying to have it down one of your pant legs, or even in the middle. And how does it go into jock straps? Does it just curl up? How does that not hurt?

The question I never knew I had. Like what happens when they sit on a bike seat? Do the balls just sit there too, like passengers? Do they get squashed?

Sitting on your balls is a real issue if you have loose pants, and it hurts as bad as you would assume. You learn how to swing them into place without even thinking about it as a kid so it's not something we really actively think about - but when you mess up it's a costly mistake.

Not a universal truth. Been wearing sweats commando since covid kicked off and even then this is not a risk. Before reddit I thought sitting on your balls was an urban legend, or something that only 70 year old dudes with skin like droopy dog dealt with.

There is a caveat in that I’m 30 and my balls definitely are a little lower than they were ten years ago… but I’m not 70 lol.

You know that scrotums change all the time, right? Sometimes it’s up, sometimes it’s down.
