I heard about this thing called scrotal inflation, and it seems insane. What do you think and why are we so obsessed with messing with our genitals?

–Going Saline

 

There is no eloquent way to talk about balls. You either say "scrotum" or use all the slang terms, which become vulgar when attached to the image of testicles. I'm not into balls, or even talking about them. It's a rare four per cent who are ball freaks. Balls are cargo.

I once dated a guy who knew a guy who had massive balls. Real huge, low hanging balls that most people would wince at. Some chicks were deeply into it though. He made his way through Craigslist, escorting his giant balls to all the scrotum fetishists in his city. Why not get paid to have some manicured lady hand go wild on your sack?

So, why is scrotal inflation becoming increasingly popular? Scrotal inflation (or infusion) is the process where someone takes a needle and injects a saline solution into their testicles to temporarily inflate them, giving that full, plump look. Some cases reported that men have injected up to 900mL into their balls, and the result is that your scrotum looks like a big, red water balloon. Apparently, the fluid is absorbed by the body and the scrotum will go back to its original size in a few days. However, this process can be painful, especially if things are not deflating as quickly as they should. Furthermore, this weird process can cause permanent infertility (if you accidentally inject the solution into your actual testicle) or "scrotal emphysema" (this is when air gets trapped in the tissue beneath the skin. You'll hear a cracking sound like your balls have become bubble wrap and you'll hot-step it to the emergency room). Of course, there's always the risk of gangrene or embolisms.

Any fetish that involves a needle comes with high risk and scrotal inflation is no different. I just do not get this. Who is this into balls? Who is this into their own balls? Have we gone so fully demented and bored that this how some people have to express their individuality? Does it feel good? I wish I had an answer for you.

I know this guy who used to be a famous porn performer. He left the industry after a few dangerous episodes of priapism. The guy was under intense pressure and when Cialis and Viagra no longer worked, he started using a designer injection to give himself an instant boner before scenes. During one painful episode of priapism, he could not go to the doctor and had to take care of the problem himself. This meant, instead of having a medical professional numb you, and drain the blood from your penis, he had to sit alone in his house and flick the needle. The lesson is: do not inject anything into your penis or scrotum. It just does not seem worth it.
