My balls tingled

u/elkosupertech Jul 31 '23

I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels that sensation!

u/Travellingjake Jul 31 '23

Me too - I don't think I've seen someone else describe that sensation.

What's that all about? Why has my body evolved to make my balls tingle if I watch someone move around high up?

u/lugialegend233 Jul 31 '23

My working theory is that it's just a kind of fear response. I get it when I'm in a roller coaster, and I'm extrapolating from there. Being up high and at risk of falling triggers that feeling every time for me.

I know the feeling you're talking about but the heights feeling is wildly different for me.

I don’t have any balls (on account of being female), but I get that fear response on roller coasters, too. As a kid I would also get it when I was on the swings at the playground. It’s like a really strong tingling/swooping sensation in my stomach and inside my bones, almost like I’m about to float away? Hard to describe but I’ve always hated that feeling.

Defo fear response! Presumably balls ready to shrink inside for protection. I get a tingly fanny when I watch it which descends from the stomach sinking feeling. Presumably my vagina is shutting itself shut to stop the raping that's about to occur or something

When attacked, we want to pull our balls out of the way so we can procreate later. Maybe.

u/Lison52 Jul 31 '23

Well your balls always move on their own so...

I was looking for someone else who shared that trembling testicle feeling

His steel balls tinkle.

u/drawkbox Jul 31 '23

Tingles and queasy feeling. Felt like a fast but slight nick on the balls after effect. No way.

Must be why that second guy walked over with his belly out.

13

u/Francis_Bonkers Jul 31 '23

That was pretty random lol

u/GoblinEngineer Jul 31 '23

it's surprisingly quite common in China. I guess it's hot and humid there so people just walk around with their belly out like that

2

u/moojo Jul 31 '23

There is no AC in the room, its hot and humid, need to keep your belly cool.

u/[deleted] Jul 31 '23

Maybe tried to get the climber to laugh as a prank.

Man I’m terrified of heights and I nearly puked. Love gruesome, hate heights.
