Taking an oath by putting your hand on the genitals

The practice of taking an oath by placing a hand on one's genitals is not a widely recognized or traditional method for pledging an oath in most cultures. Oaths typically involve raising a hand, placing one’s hand on a holy book, or some form of solemn affirmation. If this practice is referenced in specific cultural or regional contexts, it may carry particular meanings or significance understood only within that framework. That said, it's important to approach any cultural practice with respect and an awareness of the local customs and beliefs.
