    Ball Bag Chaffing

    Those of you that suffer from your balls rubbing against your thigh and end up with chaffing, what are you using? I have cycle type underwear that work ok but with a pack on it has a tendency to push them down, expose the ball bag to the thigh and before you know it, it can sting like buggery.

    I carry some of that chaff balm, handy but not full proof.

    What underwear do you use to protect your balls?

    I tie a string around my neck, thread it down thru my clothing against my skin until its low enough to loop around my tackle and hold it up. I use a slip knot halfway so I can adjust tension and lift if I'm leaning forward for uphill or heavy carrying. I find bailing twine is a good strength, does not break under the load.

    Go and see your local vet, they normally de-sex a cat for $100, I wouldn't imagine a person would be much more.
    Of course you may get the urge to start licking your arse afterwards but hey problem solved .

    I think it is time to have the saddler make up a medieval Cod Piece and learn the chorus to 'Blackadder'
