I’d give my left nut to… — one of the larger hyperbolic
lies men tell to express an acquisitive faux passion.
I
don’t know any men who would actually give up their left nut for any reason! But, I and a lot of men I know have said this at least once in our
lifetime — usually expressing a
desire in an arena where loosing a nut would be counter productive.
Well…no one ever said hyperbole was logical.
Any why the left nut?
Is the right nut biologically more powerful; do testicles
work like kidneys where one is more dominant?
Most poetic expression falls apart when subjected to even a little scrutiny.
So no — we would not REALLY give up our left nut. That’s just some hyperbolic shit to say!!!!
