I've had several emails
recently about the subject of ball stretching. It is an interesting
subject, but not one that I particularly feel the need to indulge
in. However, some of the readers of my webpage are 'into it'
and with a little extra research on the internet, I've put together
some information on the subject which will give you some idea
of what it is all about, and hopefully point you in the right
direction if you want to explore further.
Technically it is all about increasing the length of the scrotum and not the size of the testicles, so strictly speaking the name 'ball stretching' is a mis-nomer. The following text is what I've 'lifted' from others and do not necessarily reflect my views.
The
scrotum is stretched either by physical stretching and / or hanging
weights from your scrotum above your balls so that gravity assists
with the stretching. The theory behind ball stretching and scrotal
growth is that by applying a gentle but gradually increasing
tension over extended periods of time, the scrotum and internal
connective tissue suspending the testicles inside the scrotum
will actually grow and become longer and larger.
The application of a small
constant tension to any part of the skin (such as the ball sack)
is the stimulus for the body to grow new skin cells. This is
the principle of skin expansion. The growth of new scrotal sack
cells and internal tissue cells makes the scrotal sack grow larger
and the connective tissues suspending the testicles allow them
to hang lower.
The purpose, action,
and mechanisms of the scrotal sack are entirely preserved. Scrotal
skin is unique in that the skin is lined with smooth muscle tissue
sensitive to temperature and emotional stress. If the temperature
of the surroundings is warm, the scrotal skin relaxes allowing
the testicles to hang lower and operate at a lower temperature.
The sperm production
process of meiosis (spermatogenesis) is temperature sensitive
and can only be successful if the testicle temperature is a few
degrees lower than the body temperature. If the surroundings
are colder, the scrotal skin contracts pulling the balls up close
to the body for warmth. Also, during times of emotional stress
and anger, the scrotal skin automatically contracts very tight.
This is a throwback up the evolutionary path, when our ancestors
were creatures subjected to violent breeding and territorial
fights. The scrotum becomes very contracted tight and tough in
order to protect and prevent injury to the testicles.
Why do it?
Wearing ballweights
achieves two results.
1. It is in itself
pleasureable and erotic as the sensation of the weight hanging
on the balls is a great feeling (it also looks good!).
2. The weight hanging on the scrotum will, if used sufficiently,
lengthen the scrotum giving more to play with, and increases
the potential for pleasurable sensations.
Ball stretching can be a gentle bondage game, a serious obsession or a kinky diversion - If you've never tried it, you owe it to yourself to give it a go - it feels great!

I think that if I had a small scrotum,
the technique might be more appealing, but I've quite happy with
the size of mine, so I do not feel the need to make it any larger.
In fact I suspect thgat my scrotum may have got larger with age.
It could hoever be due to the fact that I do not wear underwear,
so my scrotum never receives any support. So that where as the
use of weights assists gravity to do the stretching, in my case
it is possible that just the weight of the testicles has enabled
some slight elongation. It may also be that as I lead a fairly
energetic life stlye, eg, playing squash and running, all of
which is done with no supportive underwear, that may also have
assisted in some slight elongation - who knows?
Another useful online board dedicated to information distribution regarding ball stretching is Rantallion at rantallion.com. A rantallion is someone who has a lower hanging ball sack than the tip of his penis, so I think that I just about qualify!
Thought that you might find this of interest,
but probably best not to try it at home!
