    I also stumbled upon this information a few months ago and wondered not only how someone could come up with this utterly ridiculous theory, but also why it led to those completely idiotic conclusions.

    Control over women is the main reason of course, but the whole thing is so incredibly stupid, it’s really astounding that anyone actually went with it.

    I seem to remember reading that when trains came on the scene there was some concern that the high speeds might cause a woman’s uterus to fly out of her body.

    Wow. As a man this shames me.

    I’ve never been angered or flustered by my wandering testicles. Come on ladies, get it together.

      This is outrageous but testicals do wander a little. Go into a hot space and the wander down a little. Go into a cold space they wander up. If they wander into your body see a doctor though. If they wander by spinning and get wrapped up in their veins see a doctor immediately!

      I mean, I do assume your comment is tongue-in-cheek, but sometimes a testicle pops into your body up to the prostate, and if you told teenage me that it’s going on a tour around my body, I might’ve believed you.

      Mainly because my only other explanation was that it hadn’t popped into my body, but rather that it actually just popped.
