Testicular abuse is any act of sexual violence that includes the intentional infliction of pain upon the testes of a man (or boy). Although testicular abuse can cause far more trauma and chronic health-related problems than vaginal rape, the latter receives more media attention and public sympathy. As a considerable amount of men and women believe it is funny and sexually arousing to see a man get hit in his testes, it is common for comedians, television producers and movie producers to use testicular abuse to help sell their product.

Testicular trauma can lead to the retardation of the Leydig Cells - the structures responsible for secreting 95% of a man's testosterone - and can therefore effect any process that is dependent upon the presence of testosterone. A lot of physiological, psychological and intellectual traits are dependent upon testosterone in order to function properly.

Intellectual Symptoms of Low Testosterone:

• Deceased intellectual ability
• Memory loss

According to the law system, the mere act of a man placing his finger on a woman's labia majora and/or clitoris is a form of sexual assault; the instance of a woman crushing a man's testicles and/or removing them with her fingernails is considered a form of physical violence. The penalties for sexual assault can outweigh the penalities for physical violence.

Therefore, a woman can cruelly injure a man's testes with the knowledge that she'll face a lesser charge and a lighter punishment than she would be subjected to had she been a man who gently touched a woman's vulva. The law system's stance on the issue is tantamount to saying that the well-being of a man's testes, his health and his psychological well being is less important than a woman's psychological ramifications that might occur when a woman's vulva is touched by a strange man.
