I was queried by this by a patient at the local Student Health Services. I read up on it. I informed the other staff that this topic might come up. They did not believe i was serious.

It was a net search, and I found some online articles. I remember one in particular that included an interview with a frat guy who said that he and his buddies would sit around in a circle sometimes and, er, enjoy the Gold Balm together. "But there was nothing gay about it."

What I found interesting, growing up, is that there are many people out there who find such "tingly" sensations rather too powerful when applied to sensitive skin (and, by extension, sensitive areas); it can rapidly become a sensation of pain.

A friend of mine was in a fraternity and he ended a lot of his stories on notes like that.
(Of course, a couple years later, he came to terms with the fact that he himself was gay.)

I mean, I don't have any problem with whatever consenting adults want to get up to behind the doors of a fraternity. So long as everyone is of age and of a state to consent, I don't really care.
But come on. It's not like there was only a lamppost in the room, besides you. And you all weren't just baking a pie together.
Yeah, the quote was pretty funny.

Frats are some of the worst breeding grounds for shite that even I found repulsive and deviant. I remember an old National Lampoon that had an article (with *shudder* pictures) that detailed some of the things the frats had pledges do and, uh, I can't really describe any of them on this forum they were so icky.

Lets just say I got a bad bad case of jock itch while on the swim team that didn't wanna go away. I got recommended the powder. Didn't do anything. Then the wipes. I figured it couldn't hurt... (yea right). The jock it wasn't on the bits itself, rather on the sides of the inside of the thighs and right up... yea. So I applied the wipe. Didn't feel like anything at first, just a little cold, you know like a presoaped wet towellet thingy. Then all of a sudden OH GOOD GOD!! THE PAIN! It felt like someone was hosing the region with liquid nitrogen. SO COLD!! It was FREEZING. And I swim in 75 degree swimming pools at 5 am in the middle of winter when its 0 degrees outside in naught but a speedo, so I know cold. And I can handle it... but oh good heavens nothing compares to that.
Lets just say I never used one ever again. Least ways not there I didn't.

Gold bond is a standard item in a backpackers first aid kit, I mean a little per-imtive powdering is better than jock itch when you have to hike 12 to 15 miles a day. BUT NEVER USE THE EXTRA STRENGTH GOLD BOND IN YOUR SHORTS.

I taught my college-student/technician how to lace the undies of male enemies with capsaicin cream, because it is virtually odorless, yet derived from cayenne peppers.

Don't use Vick's Vap-o-rub either. My friend, and I use the term loosely, tried that on a bet, and he was screaming for several minutes, or so I hear.
