minor nitpick about "emptied my balls"
Sometimes it's just used as a colorful turn of phrase, but a LOT of stories seem to reflect a belief that the testicles contain semen, pump it out when you cum, and then are empty. Lots of references to balls "heavy with cum" and whatnot.
You're thinking of the PROSTATE, guys.

Re: minor nitpick about "emptied my balls"
It is an idiom, and as with practically all idioms, metaphorical.
I won’t beat around the bush, and I’m always willing to cut people some slack before things get out of hand and everyone gets bent out of shape, but some may think every cloud really does have a silver lining, so the point is well taken. But most people realize these are colorful expressions of a common experience that makes the language more interesting. Same with draining your balls.

Like I said, I know it's sometimes just dramatic license or a turn of phrase. What I mean is, from context, it is often apparent that they mean it literally.

I apologize for my remark. Your point is correct and I overstepped common courtesy and the spirit of ST.

I could care less about the mechanics of an orgasm. I shoot, my balls draw up, I’m happy

Re: minor nitpick about "emptied my balls"
Yeah, I don't take it literally, but I suppose some folks do. I have a problem with it more from the standpoint that there are so many phrases that people use in their stories that take me out of it because it has become cliché. "drain my balls." I get tired of "ropes of cum." I suppose it was a great description at first, but now it's just overused. I want to buy into people's experiences, but when they use clichés in their telling, it lessens the (erotic) impact of their story, and it reduces their believability.jpeters1985 wrote: ↑Sat May 04, 2024 2:38 am Like I said, I know it's sometimes just dramatic license or a turn of phrase.
