Is it bad form to ask a mate to check you?

No, I'd tell him to go to the docs and also look into the anatomy of his balls.

He's probably feeling his epididymis.

Agreed - he should speak to his doctor rather than another non-medic.

PS I think you'll find it's spelt "epididydididydididydydydmis".

A mate is worried about a lump on his testical and he asked me to feel it, we were in the gym at the time! I told him to do one as I thought it was probably a prank or worse, what if I enjoy it?

I told him he should see the doctor if he is worried but my wife reckons I was too harsh and cancer is serious enough for me to feel it for him, to put his mi d at rest.

Would you do it if asked?

Singular, so on the basis it is in fact Lance Armstrong, I'd be more than happy to detach the odious entity from his remaining testicle!

Serious answer: let the Doc check.

He wasn't sure if it was a lump or just his mind playing tricks, with nothing to compare it too there was little I could do anyway.

Is your mate Hitler.

Remember, it's not gay if you fulfil any of these catagories:

• you don't make eye contact
• you're only doing it to prove you don't like it
• you regret it afterwards
• you shut your eyes
• only one of you survives
• one of you is a doctor
• you do it whilst wrestling
• you're in the army
• you watched Die Hard within the last 24 hours

if it was some kind of f'd up mind game, say to him "yes mate, I'll check your nuts for you, then turn, and kick them as hard as you can and say, there's nothing there mate"

if it wasn't and he is just a bit odd, make sure he does go to the docs - nothing to be ashamed of (although when I went a while back there was a very fit trainee doctor (female) who had a good old feel). It still didnt make up for the old indian doctor (male) who had first dibs though.

Ask him how he knew you were gay.

To answer this. If you do this AND find you like squeezing sweaty balls in gyms then this thread, like you, could be giving lots of joy over the next few weeks. Please update.
