Most people have more balls than there are stars in our solar system.

Wait, are you counting ovaries?

The average human has somewhere between 1.1 and 1.4 testicles.

Late edit: I was not sober when I wrote this and I definitely did the math wrong.

How are you averaging the humans? Or are you averaging testicles?

[–] pearsaltchocolatebar@discuss.online 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Considering 50% of the population doesn't have testicles, the average being over 1 indicates that there are a few million people with 3 testicles.

But there are also many men with one or zero probably more than people with three so it should probably net to less then 1 average. Unless you count prosthetic testis in the total.

If you're counting prosthetics, then there could be one guy really bringing up the average.

Testicles Georg is an outlier adn should not have been counted

Is this because of intersex conditions or something? Or just a number you pulled out of your ~~ass~~ balls?

Good friend of mine has 3. One is apparently tiny, but it's there. That man would fuck a snake if you hold it's head. Horniest man I ever met.

I have a dog, so I'm bringing up the average. We've got (dog-sare) tennis balls galore!
