If you think that's mad, your balls can taste spice! You can test this yourself by pouring hot sauce all over your genitals.

[-] Snowclone@lemmy.world 32 points 3 days ago

For uncut dudes, make sure you pull the foreskin all the way back. You gotta hit that mucus membrane with some capsaicin.

Is that why bengay tastes like balls?

[-] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 10 points 3 days ago

No, his balls just tasted like bengay and you developed a learned association.

Guys, please dip your balls in soy sauce or whatever if you can't help yourself but I'm quite sure that it won't work. I know that this is the green text community but still:

*Receptors on different parts of the body do different things. The taste buds on your tongue respond to whether or not food is edible—and of course, provide taste—while the taste buds on your testicles instead send signals to your body about sperm and testosterone production.

And the scrotum does not have "taste buds,” to be clear. “It’s also important to note that the taste receptors are in your testicles," adds Justin Dubin, a current Urology Resident at the University of Miami and soon to be Northwestern University fellow specializing in male infertility and sexual medicine. "When you dip your balls in food or sauces, you’re actually only exposing your scrotum to the food ... which is the skin surrounding and protecting your testicles."

In addition to your scrotal skin, you have other layers of tissue that separate your testicles from the outside world, so it is safe to say putting food or any other item on your scrotum won't get you anywhere close to direct contact with the actual testicle.

“Even if you were able to somehow put food on your actual testicle, which I recommend never trying, the taste receptors would not allow you to taste anything as they simply do not function the same way they do in your mouth and you would not experience the sensation of taste,” Dubin adds.

You probably wouldn't want to experience taste from your testicles, anyway. If this were the case, as Brahmbhatt points out, you’d constantly "taste" the smell of your scrotum and testicles—even sperm. Yuck.

“Obviously this does not happen—further dispelling the myth that has been propagated,” he says.*

-Dr. Jamin Brahmbhatt, MC, urologic and robotic surgeon.

I am not sure whether this article was solely published in Men's Health but here's the article:

Half-truths are the most effective troll posts.

[-] Caligvla@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 3 days ago

So the balls are constantly tasting cum? That's fucking gay, bro.

[-] dustyData@lemmy.world 11 points 3 days ago

There's nothing gayer than being a man. You always have a dick in close proximity and the only way to get off is playing with that dick. That's super gay.

Straight trans men are the only straight men!

Is a robotic surgeon someone who operates on robots?

[-] imaqtpie@sh.itjust.works 17 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

No, it's just a surgeon who lacks personality and operates with cold detachment.

[-] PresidentCamacho@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Yeah! soy sauce isn't sweet! do it again but try sugar water this time you fuckin clowns!

[-] Dasus@lemmy.world 52 points 3 days ago

I'm sitting here with explosive diarrhoea and this would be somewhat worse if my balls could taste.

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 25 points 3 days ago

You realize you're supposed to take your underwear off before using the toilet, right?

[-] Dasus@lemmy.world 21 points 3 days ago

I do, yes. Did you miss the "explosive" part?

[-] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Clear backblast.

Someone please call the science memes community! Misinformation is winning against me!!

[-] Zozano@lemy.lol 74 points 4 days ago

Alright, I just dipped my balls in a bowl of cordial, so you don't have to.

My sack didn't detect any sweetness, but I'm sure if someone sucked on them, then they would.

[-] yournamehere@lemm.ee 17 points 4 days ago

Don't leave us hanging OP, get down there.

[-] umbrella@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

my intuition says it would taste like cordial
