Why you should not touch boys’s adam’s apple???
The Adam’s apple is more formally known as the thyroid cartilage, which is in front of the voice box and grows larger during puberty. While the Adam’s apple’s purpose is next to nothing, it’s a common physical feature in men. There are some myths about Adam’s apples, such as where the name came from, so find out more surprising facts about Adam’s apples here.
The name didn’t actually come from the biblical story in Genesis.
As , while it seems logical that the name “Adam’s apple” comes from the story of Adam and Eve eating the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden (and the fruit getting stuck in Adam’s throat as a reminder of his sin), that’s not where the term originated. Going back to the early 1600s, European writers used Latin variations of the term Adam’s apple to refer to various fruits, including the pomegranate. At the same time, medieval Arabic medical writers, for some unknown reason, settled on the term “pomegranate” to refer to the protrusion of cartilage in the throat. It just so happens that the Latin terms for “apple” and “pomegranate” are very similar, so when translated into English, the Adam’s apple got its name from a pomegranate.

The Adam’s apple is a sensitive area on a man’s body, so avoid touching this area, and make them more sensitive.
This explanation highlights the sensitivity of the Adam’s apple, a noticeable part of the throat structure, especially in men. The Adam’s apple is formed by the thyroid cartilage surrounding the larynx, which can be quite tender to the touch because of its proximity to the vocal cords and other vital structures.
Touching this area can lead to discomfort or a ticklish sensation and, for some, may even feel intrusive. The phrase “make them more sensitive” likely refers to how unwanted or repeated touching could heighten awareness of the area, making the sensation more pronounced and uncomfortable. It serves as a gentle reminder to respect personal boundaries, particularly in such delicate areas of the body.
Perhaps it should be called the Adam and Eve apple.
