how come evolution selected for testicles that hang on the outside?

Because women need something else for their hands to play with while giving fellatio. Any man here who has been in a relationship knows what it is like when they think that giving your shaft indian burn is somehow sexy.

But not JUST women...
 
it makes the sex better for a female, when doing doggy style your testies slapping up against their clit will drive them wild. All the scientific explanations are great, but this is the reason.

But not JUST women... well, never mind.

4 balls will act as one giant ball while in motion. Or so I heard...
 
It doesn't take much brain power to think about how they hang low on warm days, and shrivel up on frigid days, then extrapolate that observation into a reasonable conclusion.

That's pretty bogus. I'd rather have hardier sperm, and better protection for my nuts.
 
Actually the real reason is so that you know if you have crossed into gay territory while you and your buddy DP a chick. No touch? Straight as an arrow.

I have quite dangly balls, mine tend to slap their chin during doggy.
 
It didn't require that. It's just what worked.


Actually evolution doesn't require anything. It can't. The Universe comes with qualities which are fixed. Physics, chemistry, biology (all interrelated things) are consequences of the nature of things. Homeotherms exist because thermodynamics gives them the ability to out compete other organisms in some settings. The nature of things is such that sperm are viable only at temperatures lower than most mammalian physiologies can support. Consequently those in the population which had an effective means of cooling reproduced more effectively and thermodynamics being what it is means keeping testes external.

Many people tend to assign "meaning" or "purpose" or other terms implying some goal, which isn't any more applicable to evolution than whether numbers are married. Evolution is merely a consequence of physical law.

But then you knew that 😛

those who were unable to pass on their genetics after repeated kicks-to-the-nuts simply accept the harsh realities of sexual reproduction: evolution doesn't really allow for the tolerance of more robust gametes, as it simply takes one incidence of damage to insure that this information is simply not passed-on.

You're saying god created us with internal testicles. Then after the ice age they dropped?

So if god created us in his own image...
OMG GOD has no external balls?

You sound confidant so I believe you.
 
Internal testicles fell out of favor since, If you had giant balls, they would run out of room to expand, and ten the pressure would build up until they exploded all over inside the pelvis. It would be far too painful to imagine.
 
if I was God I would have made sperm love heat so the testicles can be tucked inside... it's not fair having them dangle around so vulnerable to errant kicks and railings

lol assuming

1) God exists.
2) He's omnipotent, omniscient, and/or omnipresent and operates like a magician making anything he wants happen and
3) There aren't any more important issues facing humanity than nutsack location and sperm temperature resilience.

You've just got to love humans sometimes. Like the ones who pray to God and swear up and down there prayers are answered. Until I ask them why they didn't pray for an end to world hunger, disease, war, violence, crime, natural disasters or any one of a number of problems that if fixed would benefit humanity much more than some petty crap they think they need at the moment due to some errant synapse firing or just plain thoughtlessness. That's when the fun begins.

See what I did their? Just to make you swear up and down. For lulz my friends, for the lulz.

not true..


well, it was important at one time. Get that wrong, then we aren't around today.

Luckily, that was tuned out well before he climbed down from the trees.
 
regulate temp. Closer to body when cold, hang like a fruit basket when hot.

Also, it is a sign of manliness when you are in your 70s. You get yourself a gym-pass, pretend to workout for 10 minutes, then spend the rest of your time in the locker room with no towel on and one leg up on the bench, talking to whoever will listen.

The lower, the more manly you are.

lol
 
In God's wisdom he foreseen the tv, and thus foreseen the tv show AMERICA'S FUNNIEST HOME VIDEOS. And in his masterful wisdom thought, "gee, I got to rethink that internal testicles thing."
God knows funny.
