The Confessional Thread

[Cuthbert]

Serious post - How often do the MB lads check their testicles? This is a serious question. I remember the case of Dylan Tombides, and since then I check my testicles for anything dodgy in the shower maybe once a week.

I sometimes get tender testicles when they are quite sensitive, my left testicle is quite tender, and feels painful not on the ball itself but on the stuff below that, the sperm ducts and stuff. If you've got testicles you will know what I mean.

Can not feel any sort of solid lump on the testicle itself which is what I'm worried about. Do you lot ever get sensitive testicles every now and then?

Also while I'm on the subject, did anyone else have surgery to drop their balls? I have never asked my mates but I was 9 years old, what age are they meant to drop? Always thought that was odd.

Not to mention he was as perverted as I am annoying.

Well, that all sounds fairly normal. Everyone gets sensitive now and then, sometimes from friction or compression, and yes it can sometimes cause just one to become sore/tender but not the other, or affect only the bottom or sides. Honestly, the best thing to do might just be to bring it up with your doctor the next time you go in for a check-up, but only you can make that call.

Anyway, I have a confession to make, even though I think I've already told it to a few people... I love Garage and Punk Rock, as well as Metal (especially Judas Priest, my favorite band), but the musician who actually inspired me to start learning to play the guitar was Joan Baez.

What's wrong with Joan Baez?

Nothing, it's just that nobody ever expects me to like her. Whenever I mention that I enjoy her music, people are like "I thought you liked Rock?", especially since Folk musicians don't get much love from other people in my age group where I live. So it's a confession in that it's revealing something that few people know about me, and it usually catches me some flak when I do since all of my peers listen almost solely to the top of the pops, but it's definitely not something that i'm ashamed of.

Pretty much every shower. All cancers suck but there's something about testicular cancer than sounds extra sinister to a dude.

I wish I had a loaded gun against my temple and someone to pull the trigger.

I had testicular cancer, and I never had any noticeable lumps. The testicle itself just got bigger, and bigger, and there was a dull pain that persisted. You would know if there was something dodgy going on, I wasn't sure at first if I was imagining it, but after a month or so I decided to go to the emergency room after I knew that there was something definitely wrong. It was barely stage 1 though, so I wouldn't worry too much if you're really concerned.

Afterwards, I just had my testicle removed, and life has been pretty much the same. Only difference is my scrot looks smaller due to not having a second player.
