RE: Fresh Eyes

The line about the shaved testicles not only made me laugh, but it also reminded me of a fun fact I learnt two weeks ago.

In ancient Rome, men would hold their own testicles as a sign of truthfulness while bearing witness in a public forum. This practice was based on the idea that testicles "bear witness" to a man's virility and integrity. The word "testify" thus evolved from this practice, where a man would "stand as a witness" to the truth

This means that if you shave your balls, you are being as transparent as you can be, laying the truth bare. One would even call it a moral practice at this point.

I suspect this fact might give more depth that you would have ever anticipated.
