A figurative device, in which a woman hold's a man's manhood, preventing him from acting as per his natural state. Implicit in this arrangement is that the woman has means of reprisal against the man, and should he misbehave, grave consequences await. Most commonly used to describe arrangements in spousal or significant-other relationships, but can also be used in other scenarios where a woman has power over a man, and he must accede to her demands or face consequences. Often abbreviated, just 'TLB', especially when used in polite company.
The word is only correctly used if the man feels emasculated as a result - it does not cover all situations where a woman has authority over a man. A female boss who just threatens to fire a guy would not have him in a testicle lockbox if he feels machismo because of it.
In the late 90's, perhaps the genesis of the term, it was used to describe the arrangement Hillary Clinton had come to with Bill Clinton after the Monica Lewinsky scandal erupted.

Technically any fold of fat of a morbidly obese person, but in common usage one that harbors foul-smelling excretions. These can be simple body odor, areas that were too hard to reach during showering, or areas that have become fouled through elimination, the impossibility of spreading the cheeks, or constrained by the shape of a toilet seat (the latter two causing a "muddy fatcrack"). The word can also be used to describe odors caused by a fatcrack - in this case 'fatcrack' is most often experienced when the fat person moves, releasing a bolus of odor, or 'fatcrack'.
1. "Damn, that lady on the bus had some serious fatcrack going on."
2. "What's that smell? - Oh, that's Ruth, she's got a muddy fatcrack".
