For those of your who either are not men, or haven't been kicked in
the crotch, or haven't been kicked in the crotch for a long enough
period of time as to not remember what it feels like: you are lucky
(except for those of you who are not men).

Your your benefit, I'll explain exactly what happens when a guy gets
kicked there.

First you feel an uncomfortable pressure, then briefly blinding pain,
then numbness. This numbness lasts for about 5-10 seconds, long
enough for you to mentally adjust to the fact that you've been kicked
there. After that 10 seconds has elapsed, you feel the True Pain, and
fall over, incapacitated, for a few minutes while you recover.

The funny thing is that during the period of numbness, you think to
yourself, "Well, that wasn't so bad."

It's bad. Trust me.

But it leads me to a point: whatever you're going to do to a person
after they kick you in the nuts, you've got 10 seconds, and 10 seconds
only, to do it.

I have a buddy that outweighs me, out-muscles, and could basically
pick me up and drop me on my head. He's kind enough not to do it too
regularly, though. One day we were discussing what would happen
in a fight between us.

We came up with roughly what would happen:

1) My buddy would become very angry, and make a move towards me.

2) I'm fast, so I would kick him in the groin before he could drop me
on my head.

3) He would fall down, and I would celebrate.

4) The numbness period would kick in for him, and he would stand.

5) I would wet myself.

6) He would kick me in the groin.

7) I would fall down.

8) He would kick me a few more times.

9) The numbness period would end for him, and he would fall over.

10) The numbness period would begin for me, and I would stand up.

11) I would start kicking him.

12) I would realize that the numbness period was coming to a close,
and try to run away.

13) I'd make it about 2 steps before falling over.

14) We'd be lying on the ground next to eachother, curled up in pain,
hitting eachother weakly, like little girls.

15) After this went on for a minute or so, I would realize something
horrible.

16) I would begin to plead with my buddy... telling him I'm sorry
and such. Asking him to end the fight.

17) His response: "[censored] you, man! I'm getting up first, and when I
do, I'm kicking you in the crotch!"

I suppose what I'm trying to tell you, is that according to the Game
Theory of crotch combat, all else being equal, the person kicked in
the crotch first wins.

I therefore recommend that as your first step in any physical
confrontation you invite your opponent to kick you in the groin.
Trust me, you'll win.

If that doesn't suit you, wear a cup.

Clearly, the doctrine that should guide us in combat versus our fellow man is the one embraced by the Nuclear Powers... mutually assured destruction. Surely the threat of the unbearable pain is enough to ensure that no one ever uses this power?
