What your ball size says about you

AsapSCIENCE | May 26, 2026



Testicle size varies in homo sapiens – and it turns out the size, shape and even droop of your balls says a lot about you. Primate testicle size says a lot about our testicle size – so today we explain the fascinating and controversial evolutionary history of human testicles.

    Do enough kedgel exercises and you will develop voluntary control of the "creamasters" muscle, I don't think you need to ask me how I know…the involuntary aspect of it increases exponentially.

    Seriously, who gives a shit about your history of animal testicle size. After watching too much of this nonsense I said goodbye.

    I lived in a campus with biological diversity of plants and animals, one of them were monkeys (not sure which species and stuff), but man they've got some huge balls, almost 1.5 the size of ours, having a height 1/5th of ours at max. Me and my friends wished we could have those too.

    It's a good thing you didn't compare balls to balls used in sports. Does marbles count as a sport? If you say yes, I DISAGREE! lol.
    One more question: What if you were born with only one testee? That says to me you would be one hell of a street fighter.

    I cannot say in any truthful sense that I have ever had any compulsion to measure my testicular circumferance against the global public median, nor had the thought even entered my mind until the algorithm suggested this. Also I did not watch because I am still not inclined to do so, and still do not wonder where I am in the running. May the odds be ever in your favor regardless.

    Some balls are held for charity and some for fancy dress

    But when they're held for pleasure, they're the balls that I like best

    My balls are always bouncing to the left and to the right

    It's my belief that my big balls should be held every night
