"If I kick you in the knackers three times you can make love to me". "Believe me I can't."
The film Story of Qiu Ju is largely about this kind of joke.Reminds me of a joke: a man and finds his neighbour's chicken has laid an egg in his garden, but the neighbour notices this and demands the egg is his, whereas the man says it was laid on his property, therefore rightly belongs to him. A feud is brewing, so the man suggests a solution. He says they will each kick each other in the bollocks as hard as they can, and whoever gets up the quickest is the true owner. The neighbour says fine, and braces himself as the man boots his testicles with one punishingly ferocious strike. The neighbour collapses in agony, but after ten minutes manages to stand and announces, right, my turn. Then the man says, it's OK, just keep the egg.
A pregnant peasant woman seeks redress from the Chinese bureaucracy after the village chief kicks her husband in the groin in this comedy of justice. As she is frustrated by each level of the hierarchy and travels farther and farther away from the countryside the viewer is also provided with a look at the changing Chinese society through the verite camera used in most scenes.
Chinese “iron crotch” kung fu masters fight to preserve a painful-looking tradition
Wang Liutai is no ordinary kung fu master. The 65-year-old from a village in central China practises a unique and excruciating-looking strand of martial arts coined “iron crotch kung fu”. ...
Its most famous technique involves a steel-plate capped log, 2 metres (6.5 feet) in length and weighing 40 kilograms (88 pounds) that swings through the air and smashes into a man’s crotch.
“When you practise iron crotch kung fu, as long as you push yourself, you will feel great,” said Wang, head of the Juntun Martial Arts Academy.
Wang, who has been practising the technique for around half a century and has two children, insists that with the correct methods and sufficient practice, it does not hurt and has no effect on fertility. ...
I notice here the use of the subject's first name, Wang, where you'd expect him to be referred to by his Kung Fu title or as 'Mr Liutai' or just 'Liutai'. All so readers can nod and mutter 'Username checks out.'Bump ... (No pun intended ... )
This 65-year-old master of iron crotch kung fu recommends it, even though the number of practitioners has shrunk dramatically in recent years.

Yup, MINE bloody shrank and I don't even have one!This 65-year-old master of iron crotch kung fu recommends it, even though the number of practitioners has shrunk dramatically in recent years.
I will take bets that it's not just the number of practitioners that's shrunk...
