It's been decided that Manhua and Manhwa examples shall be placed into their own folders. Moving example to the correct section.

Added DiffLines:

[[folder:Manhua]]
* In ''Manhua/SchoolShock'', Liu Li mistakes a [[ThePeepingTom peeping tom]][=/=]StalkerWithACrush as an opposing military operative and attempts to get information on who he works for through torture. Naturally, the kid doesn't work for anybody so she decides to learn all she can through an interesting technique she saw in a film recently. After wrapping a ball in the end of a cloth, she swings it directly at the guy's groin and we see an egg crack and a ScreamDiscretionShot. Later he's seen passed out.

[[folder:Manhwa]]
* In ''Hard Boiled Angel'', the English translation of Korean police procedural manhwa ''Angel Dick'', the lead character Lieutenant Jiran Ha is notorious for her frequent use of these:
** She subdues several villains by kicking them in the groin.
** In the first volume, she begins a "game" of [[DeadlyPrank hitting the office dork Detective Choe in the balls]] every time she sees him. This continues for the rest of the series. On the rare occasion he manages to avoid her punches and slaps, she gets him as soon as his guard's down. When he complains, she tells him that she has no intention of stopping, so he will have to either stay on his toes or learn to suck it up.
** One of her colleagues offhandedly remarks that she once "kicked the Commissioner in the nuts".

It's not always played for comedy, but seeing someone get struck in the crotch is [[AmusingInjuries usually just plain funny]]. Whether the object doing the striking is an errant piece of sports equipment or a deliberately placed foot, the end result is going to be a grown man doubled over and trembling with pain. Bonus points if he then hobbles away and [[InstantSoprano says something in a high-pitched voice]]. Not only will everyone find this hilarious, but tape it and play it back for the guy and [[ActuallyPrettyFunny even]] ''[[ActuallyPrettyFunny he]]'' [[ActuallyPrettyFunny will probably laugh]]. At least, once the swelling goes down. Sometimes a cause of AmusingInjuries, especially if the victim is [[AssholeVictim asking for it]]. In shows targeted at children, it's often a DangerousForbiddenTechnique, or at least treated as one in-story (see ''Film/ThreeNinjas'' and ''Film/MightyMorphinPowerRangersTheMovie''). In Japanese media, the blow is often accompanied by the sound of a bell.

In contrast to most groin attacks, groin attacks that draw blood or involve some form of mutilation are very likely ''not'' to be played for comedy -- and owing to the PrimalFear of bad things happening to our nether regions, particularly nasty attacks of this nature can be downright ''[[NightmareFuel disturbing]]''. Apart from being a hallmark of the {{Lust}} variant of the SerialKiller, this form of attack is most often used as either a particularly vicious form of ColdBloodedTorture or as a way for {{Antihero}}es to [[LaserGuidedKarma punish rapists and other sexual criminals]], though a particularly vicious CombatPragmatist may also use this tactic as just one more way to even the score or gain the upper hand in a fight. It may ''still'' come off as funny, though, if the guy is perceived as having brought it upon himself, such as [[PantsPositiveSafety having his gun go off in his pants]]. See CripplingCastration for examples of groin attacks that lead to the unfortunate victim losing his organs/the ability to procreate.

* Used repeatedly in the [[WebSerialNovel blog novel]] ''[[http://fartago.blogspot.com/ Fartago]]''. Punching in the crotch seems to be Farta's preferred method of exacting retribution on Tago for any pain Tago causes Farta. Later [[JustifiedTrope justified]] as the pre-monolith tribe's method of exerting alpha male authority and punishing losing contenders, and also [[SubvertedTrope subverted]] in that the scene when ''the entire tribe'' lines up to punch a losing alpha male in the crotch is ''definitely not'' played for laughs. The cries of anguish of the abused loser depress Farta and Tago so much, they're unable to do anything but drink.

** If you have [[GagPenis a penis as long as you are tall]], [[http://community.livejournal.com/bad_rpers_suck/1651493.html don't display it to a high-ranking member of an asexual race.]]
** A member of the [=LiveJournal=] comm Fanficrants, upon hearing about [[AnatomicallyImpossibleSex a fanfic in which characters used glue as personal lubricant]], responded with "OW MY PENIS ... I DON'T EVEN HAVE A PENIS AND YET OW MY PENIS".
* A meme on [[Website/{{Reddit}} r/AnarchyChess]] is to claim that there's a secret rule in TabletopGame/{{Chess}} that allows you to counter En Passant[[note]]A move that allows pawns to be captured while they're moving two spaces if the space they skip is attacked, notorious for often blindsiding players who haven't seen it before for its perceived HitboxDissonance[[/note]]. Namely, you can simply NoSell it, but in exchange, you have to have a heavy brick dropped on your groin.
* From the ''Website/SCPFoundation'':
** One result from testing SCP-914 on a stress ball was a stress ball that would throw itself at the face of the nearest person every 1 to 5 minutes. If the face was protected, the ball would alternatively target either the stomach or crotch.
** A rubber ball inserted on Very Fine proceeded to bounce around the facility, looking for [[SitcomArchNemesis Researcher Darby]] at crotch level. It was destroyed before an injury could occur.
