Did you think the pain would be as bad as it was?

[Hurts!]

The very first time did you think the pain was going to be as bad as it was?

At first I heard about it and thought being 12 years old people are just saying that because men have balls woman don't but when a girl kicked me there for the first time I couldn't believe how much it hurt and my first thought was oh god how long does this feeling of pain last?  I thought don't tell me this is gonna last days! in the end after 1 hour later it was like it never happened no pain at all its amazing how that can happen with a set of balls can be the most painful feeling ever then 1 hour later no pain at all, other injuries to the body don't have that

The first time I got kicked in the balls for real, it actually hurt less than I had expected it would.

Not because it wasn't painful.  It was.  It's just that everything people said about the pain, and about how it was so incredibly agonizing that it was practically a near-death experience, and how no man could possibly even stand up after taking a direct hit to the balls, etc., all of this set me up to think that one kick, just one, might send me to the ground in a helpless paralysis/seizure kind of reaction.

But it was nothing like that.  The pain was real, but it was bearable and really awesome.  :)

Same here, I mean I've had a few hits, usually playing sports, or riding my bike as a kid that really hurt bad, and for a long while. But girls hitting or kicking me there never seemed to hurt as much, even less if I am turned on. I mean, my wife can knee me hard enough it makes a really solid sounding thump, and it hurts, but I don't double over and lay there for 20 minutes like I did when I took a jump on my bike as a kid, and both feet slipped off the pedals when I landed..

Yep me too. Thought it would be much worse the first time I got kicked, and although it is very painful, it's not something I would describe as agony, or "the worst pain a man can experience."

Women don't always kick in the right place!

I have a busting buddy, I can shrug off some of her kicks, but every now and again she catches my balls with full force and I am doubled up on the floor for several minutes, unable to breath or get up.

When my girlfriend kicks me, its usually hard and spot on kicks. LOL, I showed her exactly where to kick. The pain is indeed extreme, but not bad enough to make me want to fall to the floor or throw up etc. Same for other women who've kicked me. Granted these were single kicks by normal girls, not athletes or martial artist.

Nope, not at all! I was 'kicked' really lightly by my sister when I was pretty young, but it barely hurt at all so I stupidly assumed that being kicked in the balls just doesn't hurt at all. Fast-forward two years, when I was hitting on one of my sister's friends, the captain of the school soccer team (... you can guess where this is going). Basically, she said she'd kick me in the balls, I dared her, and she said "You won't be able to walk tomorrow" (still one of the sexier and more memorable threats I've heard :D ), and dropped me to the ground with one kick. At that time, it was the most painful experience of my life, and I was rolling around on the ground for a good fifteen minutes in complete agony for my boys :D
