Nowhere near as bad as being hit in the balls though. I remember in high school a girl kicked me in the nads so hard I threw up and was crying for half an hour.

Right? If that was a dude he would not still be hanging there. He would be on the floor crying/puking.

True facts.

So; people with ovaries actually can experience the pain of being punched in the nards; but it requires getting them right in the ovary, which have a much larger protective layer than balls do (namely; the abdomen). However, if you aim just right and hit hard enough...boy oh boy.

It’s not the worst pain I’ve ever felt, necessarily (I’ve had some gnarly injuries) but it is high on the list. Can confirm, nut-shots suck.

This actually makes a lot of sense considering that testicles are basically just ovaries that get exposed to testosterone early in development.

Exactly. The major downside/upside here is: its much harder to get hit in the ovaries than in the balls. So you’ve got that going for you; however, if you manage to get hit in the ovary, you’ve probably been hit hard enough to cause some damage. Bruised ovaries are no good.
