You know what pissed me off the other day?  I was at Kroger and someone left their cart next to my car.  My car was parked next to the cart corral, the cart was on the opposite side of my car, about 3 feet from the corral.  Seriously, they couldn't even be bothered to walk 5 feet.  Talk about self entitled.

Oh yeah?    That would be a real kick in the...

Well, you know.  

I think that with all the boob discussions, a man should be free to testify about his testicles.  Anything else would just be nuts.

That took a lot of balls to say.

Bill, first, that's funny.  

Second, I totally agree!  I view the OP as nothing more than a WLS patient raising an issue that anyone who has testicles, has had WLS, and who's seeing the changes he described would want to understand better.  

Given all the threads and comments I see on WLS boards by women WLS patients about their periods, droopy tits, nipple sensitivities, droopy lady-bits, and sagging butts, which are NEVER quarantined to sex forums, I'm standing up for the rights of all male WLS patients to discuss anything about their their body changes they want to discuss.  

By the way, HighFunctioningFatMan, congrats on your ongoing weight loss success.  Onward and upward.  ;)

Now that this has been moved I would like to address a few things.
I'm sorry for posting this in the wrong area. You don't have to accept my apologies and I'm just fine with that. I would like to thank those that stepped up in support of me! I don't feel any ill will towards anyone *****sponded against me. I understand that you don't know me so you don't know my personality.
There was a bit of irony with some of the comments, you can dig to find them if you want but please don't go back to name calling. Calling me out as a troll was no big deal. I get it, you don't know me. To refer to me as skeevy, a creeper and imply that I participate in accidental touching was unnecessary. To refer to people, even yourself as a mean cow, isn't needed. Another comment that was made was that I need to learn the lay of the land on OH. I felt comfortable posting an adult topic on here and obviously some of you disagree with that.

GRAPHIC POST!!! Don't read if anything more graphic than a unicorn fart and dirty teddy bears bother you!
To get back to the original topic... I went from a 38-40 inch waist to wearing 32 slim fit Wranglers. I can grab double handfuls of loose hanging skin on the inside of my thighs. The fat around my penis, yes I said PENIS, has gone down a fair amount leaving my balls in a completely different position than what they used to be. Perhaps now some of you can understand? Try being fat your entire life and never knowing the difference, then you will understand. I've tried different positions and all that does is splash back when I pee. I've had pee while standing, poop while holding onto everything. This really sucks...

Okay, I have a complaint. You wrote penis, and then balls. It should be penis and TESTICLES. Or, go with your previous sobriquet of "Richard" if you want to write balls. Don't be mixing proper terms and vernacular. You're making things harder than they need to be. 

Oh. Wait. I shouldn't have written that, should I?  BAD, BAD, LittleBillJr!  Go stand in the corner!

My background;
I'm happily married to a woman who has a degree in psychology and her field of study was abnormal sexuality. We do not have an open relationship and nothing involving animals will occur in our love life. I often joke that she wakes up in the middle of the night and writes about me in a journal, "dear thesis paper , you won't believe what he did today!". By our choice she doesn't work but she does volunteer with a local children's victims assistance and offers her assistance to local authorities regarding sexual abuse in children. Sex, sexuality and abuse are common topics in our house. We have a 7 year old son that we adore. We had to have sex to get him, that is how it works. I work my ass off to support us and for her to volunteer as she does so we have little left over funds. If you want to complain about sexual rewards for my weight loss oh well. We can't afford vacations. We have medical debt up to our ears from a brain tumor that she had last year. Since we've been married she's had cervical cancer, skin cancer, the brain tumor and she also has Lupus, rheumatoid arthritis and Raynaud's disease. We use humor to deal with things because crying over my ball****ting the water is nothing compared to what it could be.
My problems? I've been fat my entire life, I have a copy of a physical from when I was 14 showing me at 235 pounds. Just a drop in the bucket. Just like my balls. Get over yourselves, it could be worse.

What type of brain tumor?  Curious because I am a BT chick myself!

ISO ... New "clique" members. You must be kind, warm, welcoming, honest, intelligent, and have a sense of humor. The words "shamed" or "victim" can not be in your regular vocabulary. Sarcasm is welcome (and wanted!), but cruelty is not. You must not be a coddler or a shamer. All members are free to classify themselves as vets, newbies, grasshoppers or anything else they desire.

I enjoy long walks on the beach, puppies, sunsets and taking off my bra as I pull in the driveway. If you are like minded, you are in!

And remember, we are ALL worthy of love, humor, and dignity.

I started a new group here for my old BP friends and any new friends who have a sense of humor. Link to join:
