Please women, I need your help?

Question

I'm a 17 year old guy and I play on the school soccer team. for some reason my mom is forcing me to wear a jockstrap and cup when i play. i have told her that i dont need/ want to wear one but she wont let me play if i dont, its not like she does this about anything other protective gear like shin guards, she doesnt care about those, its just about a jocktrap and cup, what is her deal>?

Whats the worst that could happen?

Answer 1

Worse case senerio, if hit, you could become sterile (not able to have kids).

Answer 2

listen to her man...it kills

Answer 3

Trust someone who's had that part of his anatomy meet a propelled object - if you get hit or kicked there, you'll never stop thanking your mom for forcing you to wear a cup.  This kind of pain isn't something you want to take the slightest chance of ever having.

Answer 4

She wants to have grandchildren one day...plus she really is worried that you're going to get hurt.

Answer 5

She's afraid you'll take a kick to the boys that will do some damage...like the kind of damage that will make it impossible for you to give her a grandbaby some day.

Answer 6

Trust her, wear it !! I Coached a younger team of boys and girls. A young man had to be taken to the hosp. he got kicked and one of his test. ruptured. Nothing could be done, it was gone. Had he worn it, it would have only been bruised.  

Answer 7

Umm, its that big of a deal with soccer, because if you get hit by a soccer ball it wont hurt as much as say a baseball. Because one, a soccer ball is much larger so the pressure is spaced out. And two i doubt anyone on the team can kick a ball at 90+ mph.

One issue is that your privates can get really messed up if hit really really hard.
