Surgically, or genetically altered scrotum that contains muscles that, when contracted, act to pull the testicles into the pubic cavity. When relaxed, the shape of the muscle would be such that the testicle would descend and hang naturally from the body.
The benefit of having muscular testicles
is that, when properly bound to the reflexive nervous system, they would be able to be drawn into the pubic cavity and away from danger in much the same way that the eyelid closes to protect the eyeball from gouging and airborne projectiles.

As someone who has to endure Post Vasectomy Pain Syndrome, I really don't think that messing around 'down there' is a good idea. Those nerve blocks with a 6-inch needle into my groin, every few months, do seem to be helping though. |

There's a song in there somewhere - it's remarkably like "Lay Down Sally" |

// they need to be about three degrees less than body temp in order to function. // |

A bit of a design flaw there, wasn't it? |

Hey, how's it hangin', waugs? |

I'm sure I've heard of some oriental monks or what not who have trained themselves to do this as part of their martial art... |
|

what to each other with sticks? ouch! |

Yama, they were mentioned in one of the Bond books, but I've never found out whether they really existed or were a figment of Mr Fleming's imagination. |

Shaolin Monks do something like this. |

The cremaster muscle lifts your boys up. I had to explain the process to a grade 11 class when I was a student teacher. Not something I'll soon forget. |

Oh, and, seems appropriate to bone this one! GM magic, surgery unlikely, and if you really want to protect them, carry them around in a little box. |

I quite like the way ballbags move. It's kinda like watching a lava lamp dontcha think? |

I've now seen the references to sumo wrestlers. I really didn't think I needed to Google an idea about retracting knackers. Apparently, the credibility of such stories is speculative (please, no photographic proof).

The spirit of the idea is to be able to retract one's nards very quickly when faced with danger, like a turtle-head hiding in it's protective shell. When the boots and 2 x 4's have gone away, it is now safe to relax, and dangle once again.

The idea does have obvious evolutionary benefits. And, if I chose to disagree with your fishbone, at least I would still have the cojones to do so. |

Birds do it,
Bees do it,
Even educated fleas do it... |
