Noun

1. Testicles.

   The whole crowd cringed as he got hit right in the family jewels.

   • 1971, R. Z. Sheppard, "Three's a Crowd," Time, 5 Jul.,

     But what do three testicles mean? A mystical trinity illuminating some absurd need to procreate? A symbol suggesting a metaphysic of pawnbroking? Likely as not, it is simply an animation of the familiar euphemism, "the family jewels."
