A man in Canada has been jailed for approaching seven different women and asking them to kick him in the groin.

Jarrett Loft, 28, of Guelph, Ontario, approached the women over a period in April and May last year, requesting that they kick him in the groin.

One woman, who said she was scared of what Loft would do if she refused, complied, kicking him repeatedly in the privates. Loft then thanked her, and cycled away on his bike. Which can’t have been easy, given that he’d just been kicked in the nads.

Loft told the court that he had been acting out of curiosity.

Sentencing him to 60 days in jail, to be served at weekends, Judge Bruce Frazer expressed dissatisfaction that the presentencing report failed to shed any light on why Loft wanted to be kicked in the goolies. ‘It’s remarkable for what it doesn’t say,’ he harrumphed.

In addition to the 60 days in jail, Loft has been banned from parks, schoolyards and playgrounds, and from accessing the internet.
