I ran across this Boing Boing article while doing some product research for the store. It's a tad old (in web terms, alright, from last year) but short, sweet and guaranteed to make you laugh, or at least smile (some people are harder to crack than others). It refers to Bálla Powder's unusual branding of their talcum product into a wondrous testicle talc concoction. Make sure you read some of the comments too.
I still couldn't figure out what getting a "bat wing" means, but if a little well applied talc will fend it off, count me in. It's a time-honored concept, and it's by no means the practice of it that is funny, but just somehow the product description here, which was apparently dreamed up by Bálla Powder's marketing team to make and old product new again. Amazon didn't shy away from using this description, but other vendors use cleaned-up versions or more vague descriptions. Afraid of scaring off the faint of heart? Maybe.
P.S. Found the explanation for the bat wing syndrome: scrotum-leg adherence syndrome.

Bat wing is when you're exceptionally sweaty in the nether regions and your scrotum sticks to your thighs as you walk or otherwise spread them apart.
Thank you for the explanation mate.
Don't know about bat wing. I have been using the stuff for some months after finding it at Grooming Lounge. Good Stuff.
