dangly bits

Things that dangle

Dangly bits is a humorous, mildly euphemistic term for body parts that hang loosely—almost always male genitals: He got hit right in the dangly bits.

The phrase treats anatomy with playful indirection, common in British English.

It occasionally extends to any loose, hanging components: Check the dangly bits under the car.
