Every man has probably played penis pocket pool at some point or another, even if he was unaware that he was doing so. Although it may result in a sore penis, pocket pool – rubbing the penis and/or testicles while one’s hand is in one’s pants pocket – can be a lot of fun. Practicing good penis care while indulging in this activity can help minimize the risk of developing sore penis issue.
The phrase
“Pocket pool” as a phrase comes from the term “pocket billiards,” a legitimate billiards game. As “pool” is another term for “billiards,” and as the alliteration of “pocket pool” is catchy, the latter has become the term used for this stimulating male sport.
Because billiards is concerned with balls and because the testicles are commonly referred to by that name, the connection between the billiards game and the penis game is natural.
The ground rules
The basics of pocket pool are very simple. A man sticks his hand in his pocket and massages his penis and/or testicles. This can be a simple matter of stroking them for a few seconds and withdrawing the hand or of keeping the hand squeezing and stroking for a much longer period of time. In some cases, the man may manipulate his organ until he ejaculates. At other times, he may not have ejaculation as a goal; rather, he may be more interested in simply providing his penis with pleasurable stimulation or in helping his flaccid penis achieve an erection, perhaps to create an impressive, exhibitionistic bulge in the front of his pants.
Is it masturbation?
Opinion varies as to whether playing pocket pool should be considered masturbating. Obviously, in those instances in which the stimulation results in ejaculation, the answer is definitely yes. Although many men object to this, it seems clear that even non-ejaculatory pocket pool is still masturbation: as long as the intent when fondling the organ is to create a pleasurable stimulation, it is masturbation.
Pocket pool in practice
Although the whole point of pocket pool is that the penis is covered and not visible, individuals who play pocket pool in too obvious a manner in a public setting can still run the risk of breaking legal restrictions. At the very least, doing so in a blatant manner in an inappropriate setting can result in some social ostracization. (A group of friends indulging in pocket pool by mutual consent in a member’s living room is a different story.) Discretion is strongly advised when in public.
Many men find pocket pool desirable because of the special feeling of a hand enclosed in pocket fabric fondling a penis enclosed in brief or boxer fabric; it provides a different sensation from a bare hand on a bare penis.
Other men, however, prefer a more direct form of sensation. They will “go commando” and wear pants with no underwear. This provides the different tactile sensation of denim, wool or other fabrics against the penis as it is rubbed by the pocket-enclosed hand. Others also prefer to cut the bottom out of the pocket, so that the bare hand has direct access to the bare penis, as in traditional masturbation.
Playing pocket pool to the point of ejaculation can be messy, but that is the attraction for many men. They enjoy the sensation of walking around with semen in their trousers; some further enjoy ejaculating in a way that produces visible evidence of semen on the trousers.
For those who enjoy the ejaculation but not the mess or evidence, there are options. Some men stuff their crotches with tissues or other soft pads. Others wear a condom or a sock to catch the ejaculate.
Penis pocket pool is a favorite pastime of many; the emphasis on sometimes-rough fabric does cause many a sore penis, however. Employing a high quality penis vitamin formula (health professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil) can alleviate the soreness, especially if the formula is a cream that includes shea butter, a natural emollient. The best formulas also will contain vitamin B5, which is invaluable in maintaining the proper health of essential penile cells.
