      He might as well have said "Those straps between the legs tend to cut your balls off".
      The nudge and wink part is the "There is a certain part of a mans [sic] anatomy" not the "'between the legs' straps".

      It was grammatically and syntactically correct in the original post to use quotation marks.

        I quite agree.

          I disagree.

          By putting it in quotes he's almost anthropomorphising* the straps.

          I think 'those straps between the legs' would have been better.

          *I know this isn't the proper word for what he's doing but I can't remember it right now.

            Perhaps it would have been better to phrase it that way, however, I still stand by my assertation that it was neither grammatically nor syntactically wrong to phrase it as he did, without inferring and "nudge and wink".

            Maybe you're trying to read too much into it.
