JALABOLAS Very well Leila, here. I just want to add that in Chile and Mexico it is called chupamedias and in other countries they are called lameculos. The origin of this word is not that the testicles are stretched, which would be painful torture. Its origin in the old Venezuelan prison jargon since Dr. José María Vargas to General Juan Vicente Gómez, when prisoners wore ball shackles when performing forced labor or staying inside prison enclosures. Those inmates with greater economic power or influence had their particular "jalabolas" who carried them or brought the heavy iron balls they had chained to their ankles. From there it became synonymous with servility, lack of shame for being humiliated, lack of self-opinion, absolute submission. .
