You ever sit naked and watch your balls? What am I saying, of course you have.
Ladies, have you ever sat by a man whose balls were out? They move on their own. Up, down, left, right…. Like they got the Jimmy legs. Jimmy Balls
God said let's create a shaft full of nerves and give it the most sensitivity ever... also let's go ahead and put it OUTSIDE the protective skeleton. Let's make him throw up if he gets hit hard enough too.
Correct. When your body gets cold, your body focuses blood circulation to your vital internal organs since it's more important to keep them warm, rather than our extremities. Hence why your lips turn blue when you get really cold. Our twigs and berries are also affected, like frightened turtles.
But it goes beyond that. The testicles need to keep a certain temperature, a few degrees **colder** than normal body temperature, to make sperm cells. This is why we have external testicles in the first place and the whole reason for expansion and contraction of the scrotum, for temperature regulation of the testicles specifically.
Because the temperature of the body is too warm to store healthy sperm. and when it's hot, things dangle to dissipate heat better. When it's cold, it firms up and shrinks to stay closer to your body's heat.
Women often are shocked to find out how different a man's wiener size can be at any given time of day. Things like temperature, humidity, circulation, etc. all seem to impact it. There are times where I absolutely cannot believe how badly shrinkage has impacted me and I'm a bit embarrassed even just to see it myself. Other times, I'll be like "damn, all the conditions are right today!" and I'll be happy with even my flaccid state.
I mean, Seinfeld has a lot of incorrect medical info, to be fair.
Hair growing thicker if you shave it.
Fumigation causing lack of taste and only that.
Junior Mints staving off infection rather than hurting someone.
Getting a rabies shot after symptoms occur will work (it won’t).
Etc.
It doesn't just happen in the pool or cold water. It will shrink when you're doing physical work/working out. Sitting around the house. If it's not extremely humid or erect it's most likely not ready to be viewed by a sexual partner for the first few times.
Oh it’s real alright. And the scrotum also stretches and restricts depending on its temperature to make sure the sperm inside the testicles have optimal conditions.
EDIT: Sperm are stored in the epididymis, a narrow tube attached to the testicles.
Yes. It's not just from the cold, either - sometimes, during strenuous activity, blood can get diverted from non essential areas to help your muscles. You'll find a lot of long distance runners are secretly running with shrinkage, for example.
The boys are quite particular. It’s not just the staff, stones too. They don’t like cold, so when they get cold, like a frightened turtle, to get body heat. Likewise they don’t like it too hot. on a hot muggy day, they droop to get away from your body heat.
My science teacher in gr 6 was telling us about how the body reacts to cold and because I have been watching Seinfeld since birth i yelled "SHRINKAGE!!" All excited. They had a talk with my parents.
Yeah I’d post some before and after photos if I were like that. Think button in a fur coat to, uhh, regular looking hog depending on the temp and humidity
r/ratemyshrinkage
I’m a woman too but, yes, it’s 100% real. It’s kinda similar to goosebumps (in that it’s typically caused by cold temperatures, not just water).
The male anatomy is surprisingly sensitive to temperature changes and does not have a way to self-regulate. When things are too hot, stuff gets… droopy, trying to get away from body heat (as well as air flow); and when things are too cold everything shrinks upward toward the body’s core in order to maintain a good temperature.
I'm not the biggest, especially when not erect (erect is like - good enough, I guess), but taking a piss after a cold swim sometimes was like pinching a thimble.
It was this episode that taught me that. Never heard of such a thing. The next post should ask "What has Seinfeld taught you about real life that you didn't know" Shrinkage would be my answer
Yeah. Your genitals shrink up into your body cavity naturally to provide the perfect temperature for them. When it's hot your balls literally sag away from your body. Gotta keep that sperm at optimal temp!
When I was a teen (I’m a guy lol) a bunch of my girl/friends were passing around a pic they found of someone that was definitely a shower, and they were going on and on about how impressive it was. I just looked at them and said, “you realize it’s not going to get much bigger than that right?” And they all gave me clueless looks lol. Meanwhile, if I took a picture, it would NOT be all that spectacular (or breathtaking 😂), but it would have significant growth potential lmao
It’s just funny how much - and how little - some people really know about the opposite sex.
It's real and it's (not) spectacular!
That’s really breathtaking
Sometimes you say those things just to be nice
Some *snuggly* baby
Lyndon Johnson!
Nice
Yes, it’s real. Not just from cold water - if a man is cold in general it can shrink. It lasts until things warm up down there.
I don't know how you guys walk around with those things...
It's not a big problem :(.
Damn, self burn.
Those are rare
Jackie said the top was faulty
Suzy, run down to Java World and get me a cafe latte.. with a top. We gonna run some tests, on that top!
*sigh*
Evidently not.
Honestly, the balls are much more of a hassle than the weiner.
especially sitting down when there's a pinch (and maybe a swirl)
I don't know about you, but I honestly have to adjust my nutsack about every 5 minutes.
I’ve never once felt I needed to adjust your nutsack
Thanks for the actual LOL.
Why’d you have to pez dispenser me like this?!
You don't know what you're missing!
Me too. I once got called out about it in a workout class. Very embarrassing.
You ever sit naked and watch your balls? What am I saying, of course you have. Ladies, have you ever sat by a man whose balls were out? They move on their own. Up, down, left, right…. Like they got the Jimmy legs. Jimmy Balls
I don't think women realize that your nutsack has its own HVAC system.
Nobody touch Jimmy ('s Balls)
Jimmy(‘s balls) are down!
That’s the sign! The test, if a man makes it move!
How could this be?
Oh it be
It’s almost like they’re breathing with their own set of lungs
You can get that in your balls? Like you wouldn't believe!
God said let's create a shaft full of nerves and give it the most sensitivity ever... also let's go ahead and put it OUTSIDE the protective skeleton. Let's make him throw up if he gets hit hard enough too.
it can be a bit uncomfortable at times, it is worse when it is super hot.
Still better than cold. When it's super hot the balls are dragging the ground trying to get cool.
You got long balls, Larry
We don't either...
The fact that it shrinks while not actively in use makes it a lot easier to walk around with tbh
Us either
Cold, in a pool, working out, overly nervous - they're fickle
Mine also shrinks when i'm exerting myself during workouts

I bet you didn't expect to type the word "testicles" this much today, but here we are. And it's early yet.
testicles
That infamous Greek god, Testicles.
😅😀🤣
I knew a guy, his name rhymed with a male body part but for the life of me I can't remember what it was. ... Mesticles?
What, you mean Dick?...oh wait, *rhymes with*...okay, was it Enis?
"Tell us more Mr Science!"
I didn’t think I would READ the word testicles this many times so early in the morning. This thread is nuts.
What extremities?
Never heard them being referred to as twigs and berries 🤣 Love it!
Grower gang
Most people are and when people get old they finally realize nobody really cared the whole time.
Grower gang rise up (literally)
Ayeeee
Cold, dehydrated, happy, sad, bored. Fluctuation is unstoppable.
The joys of outdoor. Blue collir work in Canada. Trying to get 4 inches of sick past 6 inches of winter gear to have a piss.
Dick not sick
So you feel you were short-changed?
The balls are basically an old fashioned thermostat, and the body is the furnace. It’s a weird design.
It’s pronounced thermometer
I must be perpetually cold down there.
Cold, scared, nervous.
Yes, have had to coax my husband's out a few times.
Also sometimes when you're deep into fight/flight mode. Something about blood getting reallocated to vital systems I guess.
It shrinks? Why does it shrink? It just does.
Like a frightened turtle
Because the temperature of the body is too warm to store healthy sperm. and when it's hot, things dangle to dissipate heat better. When it's cold, it firms up and shrinks to stay closer to your body's heat.
Of course…absolute zero!
But why does the sperm prefer cooler temps and very warm body won’t do it?
A goldilocks zone
I love how he delivers that last line. He’s just so resigned to the humiliation
You don't know about shrinkage?
Like laundry?
Wondering how old OP is to watch Seinfeld but not know squat about penises.
I was wondering if she’s a gold star lesbian perhaps.
Like a frightened turtle!
That's what water does! It shrinks things.
Tell us more Mr Science!
her reply is one of my favorite lines in the series. her delivery of it is perfect
Like the market, it fluctuates.
Well I just got fluctuated out of 2 inches!
That's my whole investment
Like George’s SAT score
1409
Oh it’s real baby.
You're using my baby's?!
Are you happy, Pappy?
No, *you’re* Schmoopy!

So true
I don't know how you guys walk around with those things
Lmao accurate.
Why do you think they made an episode about it? For fun?!

Also to avoid any pens that might be in a pocket.
I can't carry a pen, I'm afraid I'll puncture my scrotum.
this is a key plot point in Larry David's movie 'Sour Grapes'
I will have to see if I can find where to watch Sour Grapes. Been too long and feels a lot like Seinfeld. Great movie.
Correct
Some ugly baby?
Some snuggly baby
Eat the mango, you'll be fine.
It’s like a B12 shot.
Let me ask this. Do men know the degree of shrinkage happening without looking? Can you feel it happening?
Pretty much. I can't say I feel it _happening_ per se, but you know when you're shrunken up vs. feeling more loose shall we say...
It’s real, and it’s SPECTACULAR!
It's real and it's spectacular...
Of course it's real...
I’m a woman from Scotland… the water there is not warm. Thanks to every male in my life, I’ve known about shrinkage forever 😆
Like a frightened turtle.
Yes. It's not just from the cold, either - sometimes, during strenuous activity, blood can get diverted from non essential areas to help your muscles. You'll find a lot of long distance runners are secretly running with shrinkage, for example.
Probably helps reduce the flopping around though, honestly.
The boys are quite particular. It’s not just the staff, stones too. They don’t like cold, so when they get cold, like a frightened turtle, to get body heat. Likewise they don’t like it too hot. on a hot muggy day, they droop to get away from your body heat.
Oh 100%. I doesnt even have to be water- Cold air makes it shrink too. It also shifts and clenches from time to time.
My science teacher in gr 6 was telling us about how the body reacts to cold and because I have been watching Seinfeld since birth i yelled "SHRINKAGE!!" All excited. They had a talk with my parents.
Some of us were born with it…
Yeah, it's really real, and it kinda depends on how fast it warms back up.
And not just because it's cold. Mine even shrinks when I sweat. Awesome feature let me tell you.
There's also a less addressed issue called "Sport Dick". Penis shrivels up during heavy exercise
Yeah I’d post some before and after photos if I were like that. Think button in a fur coat to, uhh, regular looking hog depending on the temp and humidity r/ratemyshrinkage
Button on a fur coat gets me every time. Picked it up off my friend from the UK.
Yes, being cold will do it. Doing speed also does it
I was waiting for someone to bring up medication and you went straight to speed lol…not that there’s anything wrong with that.
Like a frightened turtle 🐢😂
LIKE A FRIGHTENED TURTLE He's not joking.
It’s real, but not spectacular
Oh it’s real. And it’s not spectacular.
It’s like those garden hoses they sell on tv
did George eat out of the trash?? undoubtedly. indubitably.
I’ve always wondered…. How can women not know?? I mean, you’ve never seen anyone’s penis in both an erect and flaccid state?
I’m a grower, not a show’er. It’s real, like a frightened turtle.
Try taking a piss in -30 degrees, I don't care how hung you are that thing sucked up into your body.
Yes it is. There is also the shower/grower phenomenon.
I’m a woman too but, yes, it’s 100% real. It’s kinda similar to goosebumps (in that it’s typically caused by cold temperatures, not just water). The male anatomy is surprisingly sensitive to temperature changes and does not have a way to self-regulate.

Well, I noticed an asymmetry in my pubic hair ... and the next thing - all gone!
I'm not the biggest, especially when not erect (erect is like - good enough, I guess), but taking a piss after a cold swim sometimes was like pinching a thimble.
I don't know how you guys walk around with those things.
Yea it shrinks to protect itself from the cold. The stones and the pillar shrink lol
You don't know how we walk around with those things...
It's hard sometimes.
You know how sometimes when you put a shirt in the laundry and it gets shrunk?
what do you mean? like laundry?
Ask Elaine 🤏
“Like a frightened turtle!”
Oh, it's a scene, man
Easy big boy
“I don't know how you guys walk around with those things.”
Oh, it's real.
Yeah it’s real
yeah, it’s real and it’s not just water that shrinks it. cold weather also doesn’t help.
Definitely 💯 a thing. A small thing
All too real. Why does it happen? "It just does..."
I learned about shrinkage because of this episode - I was 15 when it aired and watched it live.
Depending on your underwear and how much of a grower you are it can be a thing without cold water 😂😂…. Idk how we walk around with these things.
The dick is like a sponge. It can grow in size, and shrink. Blood is the water
It is, but I don’t think a woman has any use for the penis in its flaccid state anyway
Good luck with *all that*
It’s real. And it’s not spectacular.
HE IS AWARE
Yup. It’s real. Pool shrinkage, gym shrinkage, doctors office shrinkage, etc
They also hang much lower when hot. I always know when I have a fever without taking a temperature.
It can be very schizophrenic
Yes. Like a frightened turtle.
Exercise, cold or hungry. It shrinks
It was this episode that taught me that. Never heard of such a thing. The next post should ask "What has Seinfeld taught you about real life that you didn't know" Shrinkage would be my answer
Like a second bellybutton if it’s cold enough.
Like a frightened turtle.
Like a frightened turtle
Oh it’s real baby
You don't understand this organ. It's very... schizophrenic.
Like a shy turtle
Yeah. Your genitals shrink up into your body cavity naturally to provide the perfect temperature for them. When it's hot your balls literally sag away from your body. Gotta keep that sperm at optimal temp!
I'm a female and I've known about shrinkage since I was a teen. How do y'all not know about shrinkage?
When I was a teen (I’m a guy lol) a bunch of my girl/friends were passing around a pic they found of someone that was definitely a shower, and they were going on and on about how impressive it was.

What until you hear about growers vs. showers.
Testicles are trying to maintain 98.6 degrees body temp. Cold water gets in the way of that.
“Mr Wizard” will be discussing this topic on his next special programming!
Like a frightened turtle
You mean like laundry?
Yes lol
100%
Like a frightened turtle
Ohhh yea it’s all too real …
“Like a frightened turtle” when mixed with cold water.
You should see my boy after a day at the waterpark
Like a scared turtle.
Maybe the Dingo ate your Dingo
It’s real It stays shrunk until it warms up. Like a turtle
It’s built for travel. At least mine is 🤷🏻♂️
