BALLS 101: Blue balls, fact of fiction?

Ev

Definitely a fact!

A guy saying he has blue balls usually sounds like a desperate attempt to get laid.

But, scientifically, it's a real thing.

It happens from the build up of pressure from blood flowing to his penis.

And yes, the whole thing can make his balls a slight shade darker than they normally are.

Still, he can fix this problem on his own so you should never feel pressured into having sex.
