I’m a guy and I have no idea what that is. Does that happen when you don’t have sex for a longer amount of time or what? And couldn’t you just jack off?
Comment on Yeah, am I right fellas
synapse1278@lemmy.world 1 year agoAbout blue balls, it’s not entirely made up. I’ve experienced it myself. Except:
- It’s discomfort, not terrible pain. It can last few minutes to a couple hours max
- It’s not guaranteed to happen
- If it’s use as an excuse to pressure your partner into having sex, then it’s abuse.

It’s testicular discomfort after being sexually exited for a while (with erection) but the act does not take place or you are not able to finish. You absolutely can blue-ball yourself btw.
Another important note: nothing actually turns blue.

Ball-haver here, and agreed. Balls also hurt for a variety of reasons. Sometimes just gently elbowing yourself can lead to a dull ache that leaves you squirming.
Anecdotally ball pain does not sound nearly as bad as period cramps - and people are expected to go to work with those!
