I’m confused by my husband’s constant request to pull and squeeze his testicles. I can tell it hurts him but when I try to be gentle like my other boyfriends liked it, he tells me to be rougher with them. Is this a common thing or is this some little kink of his?

It’s oh so very common. In fact, there are many men who are into ball KICKING! That’s right – many men pay a good amount of money to be tied up and have someone else tee off on their crotch. Countless men squeeze, pull, tap, and play with their testicles during masturbation, all with varying intensity.
I think people are so gentle with their partners in the very beginning of their sexual development that they underestimate the physicalness and aggression that genitals can endure. Think back, if you can, to your first experiences with a penis. Most people are gentle with them and treat them like they are about to break, only to be shown by their partner that they can actually go much harder than they might think. “Fondling the Monkey” isn’t the term, after all.
You do want to remember that pulling and squeezing is probably fine, but you have to be somewhat careful since you can technically do permanent damage. Also, twisting is probably a no-no. I had a bit of testicular torsion (unrelated) in college and trust me when I tell you that it’s not a pleasant ordeal. So just listen to your husband’s requests. Let him guide you through it; I’m sure he’ll let you know if it’s too little or too much.
