Eggs of men

In many non-English languages testicles are colloquially called ‘eggs’, for instance in Spanish huevos, in German Eier, in Czech vejce. This is indeed a very nice metaphoric reference. A man’s testicle has a shape of an egg. Testicles are also similarly fragile as a pair of eggs put together in a bag. An egg box is used to protect eggs when carried around. Analogously, a protective box is used to safeguard testicles from direct hits and to prevent injury during sport and martial arts. Eggs can be cracked easily by a female hand in few seconds, its done almost every day. Women should keep this in mind when their ability to defend themselves is questioned. One of the techniques I’ll present to you is called the ‘egg cracker’  I always felt it is a very appropriate name.
