And we need to know this because....?

StrumpersPlunkett · 13/11/2025 23:09

As much as I feel the man was evil, I have no idea why the size of his genitalia is of any interest.

Elisheva · 13/11/2025 23:10

And apparently he really did only have one ball.

Makemeanonymous · 13/11/2025 23:10

Oh they did an interview this morning on the Today programme with the scientist responsible for the research.
It was absolutely fascinating.

LaserPumpkin · 13/11/2025 23:10

Well, he allegedly only had one ball.

Will they be sending the forensics into the Albert Hall next?

Smalldickbigcar Syndrome. Or in his case, massive tanks and howitzers.

As usual first response nailed it!👏

This would be a really great dissertation for someone - genetic analysis of penis size and correlation to atrocities committed.

I think this thread is in poor taste for any of the holocaust survivors families. Whether he had small genitals or not, it doesn’t take away the atrocities committed.

My aunt miraculously survived Auschwitz, she was one of the last survivors of the hell hole. I’m so grateful to have been a huge part of her life, I’ve heard her accounts and been to Auschwitz with her on many occasions. Her full family perished there. Frankly, I think many like me really don’t care what size his dick was.

Heyhelga · 13/11/2025 23:22

Great. A naked Hitler image in my head before bedtime. Just what I wanted. Not 🤣

FurbieGurbie · 13/11/2025 23:23

I take your point but it’s splashed all over the news. I wasn’t the one who researched and published the evidence.

I agree. It seems to me to be an extension of the trope of cartoon villains having certain physical features - often painted as a clear outward sign of their villainy - meaning that people who are perfectly nice folk, but who happen to have physical characteristics that are not traditionally envied... well, it's obviously because they're inherently bad, isn't it? If they were nice, kind people, they would never look like that. It's their inner ugliness that's manifesting externally.

I can't for the life of me think what the people studying and chattering about this hope to achieve - apart from maybe to demonise many men who have the same physical condition but happen not to be evil genocidal monsters.

I lived in Austria for a while and, considering that Hitler was Austrian, well... hmm... you know... all of the people that I knew and met... were not one iota like Hitler whatsoever. Shockingly, the vast majority of them were very nice, pleasant people - and even the few that I didn't get on with were maybe only a bit grumpy or had a different personality from me; not a single one of them was a mass-murderer.

Of all the useful, positive things that these scientists could be spending their time doing...

You posted it… there’s nothing amusing about the holocaust.

Further down in the article it also said that AH had genetic markers for schizophrenia and BPD, as well as possible Kallmans Syndrome.
Any or none of these could be significant to him being an egregious cunt.

You can't be too careful who you elect, can you?

BillieWiper · 13/11/2025 23:28

Rumour has it he only had one ball.

But according to the song he actually didn't. He had one that was in the Albert hall and another that got eaten by fish in the ocean.

That always really bothered me for some reason. Calling out the accuracy of primary school chants didn't exactly make me the most popular kid in the playground. 🤣

WinterHollow · 13/11/2025 23:42

Sorry to rain on the hilarity of this thread but I really don’t find humour in “he only had one ball” etc songs. Yes, children don’t know any better to sing these songs in school but if adults educated themselves in the reality of what happened in many of the concentration camps they wouldn’t be making light of it. Many “doctors” in those camps experimented on twins, women and men, my aunt being one of them. I never knew the full horror until she died and she left her diaries of her memories. Please not let’s make light of the atrocities that happened in these camps.

I think the theory is more an attraction to war rather than sex.

Sugarnspicenallthingsnaice · 13/11/2025 23:47

Men are so fucking weird, the importance they place on the size of their dicks is crazy. Let's not buy into it.

Well, the article makes it clear there's no link.

But how is anything in this thread or even in that juvenile song making light of the holocaust though? It’s not.

FurbieGurbie · 13/11/2025 23:53

Cards on the table @WinterHollow My great aunt and her children were rounded up and didn’t survive Auschwitz. My great uncle was shot by the Nazis. My father, who fled the country of his birth as a toddler, told me about this news story in a wtf way. My family is poking fun at the man. Why let him have any dignity left? We can laugh in a wtf why now what is the point of this and make jokes about his one ball - and not let him have any more power over the little family that we have left.

It's late and I thought the title said "lodger" and was really baffled as to why Hitler had a lodger and why we were only finding out about it now.

upinaballoon · 14/11/2025 11:54

The song wasn't only sung by children. I thought it was a morale-boosting ditty sung by British troops when they were fighting the Germans across Africa in WW2. I don't mean they sang it when they were fighting, but in an evening when they were having a sing-song to amuse themselves. If you want to keep up the spirits of young men who are being sent to risk their lives it's good if they can put the enemy down in a bit of a song.

Hence:
Hitler has only got one ball.
Rommel has two but they are small.
Himmler has something sim'lar.
And poor old Goebel's got no balls at all.

To insinuate that someone has no balls is still a way of saying that they are without courage.

The fact that there was this latest news was probably because the broadcaster knows that older people in the population have long known the song.
