That strap around the testes, with the quick release feature, that is cinched when the gate opens, is for what?

TB, you are able to believe anything, anything at all. A mind as malleable as yours is a wondrous thing to behold in a way.

In those videos one can see the strap around the testes. Why is it there? Why do they cinch it tight when the gate opens? Why does it have a quick release feature?

It's all there to see.

        Well, what do you think that strap around the testicles is for? The one that's tightened as the gate opens? - bowser - 8/19/2013 7:20:56 PM
        
        5 seconds of viewing would show you two straps. One pulled at gate opening. - bowser - 8/19/2013 12:59:09 AM
