'''Testicles''' are the oval-shaped sperm-producing organs in males contained within the scrotum. Because ''testes'' hang like ''icicles'' off a roof, that is how the name '''testicles''' came to be. The '''testicles''' are meant to be loved and caressed. Any trauma to the '''testicles''' will elicit the well-known and much-maligned testiculosoprano reflex, in which a male's normal voice jumps 8 octaves to express the discomfort and pain.
