Girls, Did you think sack tapping was funny when you were younger? Did your opinion change when you got older?

[DrearyMark]

I’m curious to know if girls on gag went through that phase a lot seem to go through were they hit guys below the belt as kind of a “gotcha” joke without realizing how painful and serious it can be. So my questions are

Did you ever sack tap a guy when you were younger?

Did you think they were exaggerating how bad it hurt?

Did you think it was funny? If so why.

And did your opinions and actions change when you matured

thanks

I'm not proud of it, but back in middle and some of high school, I did that playfully with my guy friends. They often laughed, so I assumed it was more of a funny and exaggerated thing they did for attention and a laugh. It also just is something that is jokingly in a lot of movies and shows, so I assumed it was basically a joke. But I realize it's really serious and would never playfully hit a guy there now.

[DrearyMark]

Haha well at least you have the courage admit it, I’m glad some girls seem to grow out of it eventually

[laraWM]

No, I think most of the time it is done by other guys to bully people

[DrearyMark]

You really think so? In my experience it’s more of a girl thing, since guys can’t really get them back
Just my experience with it though

[laraWM]

I mean I didn't make a study about it but I witnessed some occurences.
You said your experience with it, did it happen to you?

[DrearyMark]

Yes it’s happened to me more than a few times and I’ve seen it happen to my friends over the years. And most of the people who do it, again in my experience, are girls

[laraWM]

I'm sorry to read that. How did it end? You told your parents or teachers? Or fight back?

[DrearyMark]

Honestly they would usually get away with it Scott free, the only reason it doesn’t happen that often anymore is they just don’t lol, though it still does happen occasionally. And I’d be to freaked to fight back lol

[laraWM]

But you should tell your parents or a teacher if it happens at school.
What do you mean too freaked?

[DrearyMark]

Well yes that’s true, it does happen at school or at least did but it also happened a decent amount outside of school
That they would get angry and do it again, I’ve had that threatened before, and doing it back to girls doesn’t really work in my experience

[laraWM]

But from what I've understood they already do it again. Does she threatened you to get something from you?
It is good you tried to defend yourself but you were a bit naive. I think it could be effective but you probably need to land a very hard kick between the legs which is really not easy.

[DrearyMark]

No normally they just do it for a laugh or if you make them angry or something. Yeah maybe it’s the placement of the kick or something but it doesn’t seem very feasible at all

[laraWM]

They? But how many are these girls?
No I think you're right. Without training, the groin kick is only easy to perform against guys because it does not require a lot of force or precision

[DrearyMark]

More than a few at school lol, yeah that’s always been the unfair part, it’s really only a guy weakness

[laraWM]

Then you should try to find all the victims and went to the teachers.
Yes but it's not unfair, it's rather part of being a guy, I think everyone witnessed it

[DrearyMark]

Well I think it’s unfair because there is no way to get a girl back, I have plenty of stories lol, I can tell them all but I’d feel more comfortable in DMs tbh as some of them are really embarrassing

[laraWM]

I think I understand. But although you can't use the groin kick on a girl, it doesn't mean you can do nothing
And I don't really like to DM, you can tell here if I can help

[DrearyMark]

Ahhh a lot of them are just to embarrassing haha, but I’ve been really hurt down there before which is why I think i get so nervous

[laraWM]

I see but no need to be embarrassed about it. You know I've already seen guys getting hit in the groin, it is more embarrassing for the people watching it.
I thought about something, maybe the girls you know don't understand what it means to hit a guy in the groin. Did you ask them to stop doing it because it is really painful?

[DrearyMark]

Oh we’ve told them plenty of times I think they know just how bad it hurts it’s why they do it, well some of the cases I’ve been hit are really extreme and embarrassing is all

[laraWM]

I mean we can't relate so maybe you need to insist. She might think you exaggerate it.
Personally I didn't really realize what it means until it happened to my boyfriend

[DrearyMark]

I’m not really sure how much more I can exaggerate when I’m on the ground clutching myself and crying lol

[laraWM]

I know you don't exaggerate. I feel bad for you. I was told you are unable to get up after getting kicked.
Maybe your best option is to tell someone what is happening

[DrearyMark]

Lol most adults don’t seem to take it seriously either, I just get told to “man up”

[laraWM]

But who are they? You told them what happened?

[DrearyMark]

Parents of the girls, my own parents, and the school conseler at one point

[laraWM]

They all told you it's no big deal?

[DrearyMark]

Lol some of them seemed to get a little upset but they all pretty much brushed it off

[DrearyMark]

One even said “Girls will be girls lol”

[laraWM]

I'm sorry but did they understand you were on the floor? because it looks like they felt you were not badly hurt

[DrearyMark]

Yes they knew the extent of the blows on most occasions and still basically said to not worry about it

[laraWM]

I hate saying that but I'd like you kick one of the guy you told what happened in the groin. And then ask him how it feels and to man up

[DrearyMark]

Haha maybe it would be satisfying but it wasn’t all men who told me to man up so

[laraWM]

Choose one who did

[DrearyMark]

Then I’d just get in trouble for hitting an authority

[laraWM]

Yes of course don't do that, but I think it'd be good for them to realize.
Maybe you could tell the nurse, is there a nurse in your school? I guess you already saw her for the pain?

[DrearyMark]

Yeah but she just said it was normal for girls to attack that spot

[laraWM]

So she basically gave you painkiller and send you back to class?

[DrearyMark]

Not even a painkiller lol but yeah

[laraWM]

No painkiller? So she basically did nothing?
She probably thought the girl was defending herself

[DrearyMark]

I don’t know, she just said girls tend to aim for that area and to try and not get hit there and sent me on my way

[laraWM]

Did someone help you to reach her office or did you go alone once you were able to get up? Because you probably looked fine enough when you saw her

[DrearyMark]

I hobbled myself to her office

[laraWM]

hobbled? because of the groin kick? omg I didn't know it can still cause trouble walking once you got up

[DrearyMark]

Yeah my stomach was churning and If my legs closed I’d wince from the pain, so I was pretty much limping

[laraWM]

omg that must have been a pretty hard kick. She did nothing to help with the pain? Nothing can be done?

[DrearyMark]

It was a pretty bad one but far from the worst I had ever gotten tbh, and she could have given me pain meds I guess but I’m not sure tuat would have helped with the nausea

[laraWM]

Not sure it'd have helped but I'd have give you painkillers and keep you lying for a while.
You got nausea also from the groin kick?

[DrearyMark]

Haha I appreciate it, wish you were my school nurse 😅
Yeah if they hit right into a guy’s balls then it can make him sick

[laraWM]

Thank you.
I had no idea of that. I guess you had trouble taking the class after that.
Did you tell her about the nausea? I'm sure a lot of people, or at least of girls have no idea either

[DrearyMark]

Yeah but she again didn’t really seemed to do much, it was rough just being in school around girls after that

But to be honest the worst was probably when I was held down in a woods and had my balls actually stomped on

[laraWM]

But at least were you able to walk properly when you left the office?
What the hell? Who did that? It is really like an assault? Did they leave you in the woods?

[DrearyMark]

I was still hurting but I managed to move easier yeah

Literally my sister and her friends and yes they left me

[laraWM]

Omg I hope someone helped you

[DrearyMark]

No lol not really I sat there and rolled on the ground for a long time before I could even attempt to walk back to my house. I walked funny for a day or two after

[laraWM]

I'm sure you did. It is way worst than I thought. Did you see a doctor after that? I hope you're fine

[DrearyMark]

I was too young to take myself to a doctor but I remember the area swelling and turning a really dark purple and it scared me really bad

[laraWM]

Yes because of the blow. I feel bad no one took you to the emercency room

[DrearyMark]

Yeah us kids were mainly left to our own devices, lol but I thought she had neutered me for a day there, it hurt so bad I cried

[laraWM]

I feel so sorry. Glad you still have them. Fortunately it probably requires more to castrate someone

[DrearyMark]

Just the word makes me flinch lol

And trust me I’m still glad I have them too but I feel like they came close

[laraWM]

Sorry, I didn't intend to

[laraWM]

To be honest I wish you could find a solution. I don't understand why everyone denies how bad what happened was

[DrearyMark]

I’m not sure either, but trust me when I say it’s the worst pain I’ve ever felt, after they had stomped on me my vision was blurry and I was bleeding. It was so scary

[laraWM]

😔😔😔

[laraWM]

Go to the police next time

[DrearyMark]

Lol I was 11/12 when that happened I don’t think they would have taken me all that seriously

Seriously though be glad you’re a girl lol

[laraWM]

I see but you know, if it happens again
Well I understand but girls can also be bullied

[DrearyMark]

Oh I got you

Yeah bet never quite like that, I’m a little jealous of girls there honestly lol

[laraWM]

I mean yes of course.
Bullies basically look for the weakspot of people are focus on it

[DrearyMark]

Yeah it’s just a way that only cuts can be bullied

[DrearyMark]

Guys**

[laraWM]

Yes true. Obvious weakspot

[laraWM]

Thanks for MHO. I hope it helps

[DrearyMark]

I hate that it’s such an obvious weak spot it feels like girls know about it from day 1 lol

And no problem thank you for the continual answers!

[laraWM]

I understand but you know most of the time people are nice and don't use the weak spots. Personally I'm aware of that for long time and I've never used it against guys

[DrearyMark]

When did you learn about it and how?

[laraWM]

To be honest, I don't remember exactly when I found out.
I remember I saw a guy in school get hit by a ball and I didn't understand his reaction. I though he was fooling us

[DrearyMark]

Haha no he wasn’t fooling you I promise 😨 it’s always so strange to me how early girls and boys learn the difference lol

[laraWM]

Yes, I guess accidents happen sometimes and to be honest guys always emphasize how much it hurts.
But I know now it is really bad because it happened to my boyfriend.

[DrearyMark]

So you thought boys were faking it before? How did it happen to him?

[laraWM]

No, of course I didn't think they were faking it. But I didn't realize how much it could hurt.
My sister accidentally kneed him while playing basketball and he genuinely was unable to get up until my mom went and picked us up.
Fortunately it didn't make him sick as you said, like he had no nausea or stomach pain

[DrearyMark]

Geez how old were you when it happened? I hope your sister apologized!

[laraWM]

I don't remember but I think we were in college already so I was about 20.
Yes she apologized because we all understood it was really bad for him

[laraWM]

I'm sorry to bother but I was worrying about what you said and maybe you could reach an association next to where you live to find some help and support to get out of here

[Anonymous]

I only did it once and it was on my dad of all people 🤦 I didn't know at the time but I saw boys at school do it to eachother and me and my dad were play fighting and he stood up and I didn't think about it but I whacked him right in the nuts.

I thought he was exaggerating at first but then I realised he was actually hurt and I felt really bad because he was like tearing up and I've never seen my dad do that before and he wasn't laughing. He explained to me all the details and said not to hit a man there unless it is self defence etc so I know in hindsight he really wasn't exaggerating.

I thought it was hilarious when I first did it and he doubled over and dropped to the floor but stopped laughing when I realised he wasn't joking.

[Anonymous]

Sounds very immature. I have never done that.

[DrearyMark]

Haha I’m glad, I wish more girls my age were like you 😣
