I LOVE penises but, then, I’m a girl. I’m not giving mine up! I have him leave it here when he goes to work!

I Like My Penis, but not as much as I like my Husband’s…

I’ve had a very close relationship with my penis for many years. It has never let me down. Doesn’t creak and crack like my knees, and hasn’t gotten all gnarly like my fingers. Not growing any more hairs as I age like my ears have, and hasn’t made me hold things farther away to make out like my eyes have.
So those parts would go before the old penis…

My penis is like a fun toy that I (and others ;)) can play with any time. It’s great to have a body part that can make you happy just be touching it.

Judging from watching my husband and two boys, this is something that many men are compelled to do. My husband was lying on the sofa the other day with his hand round his package, and I asked him what he was doing. “I’m just looking after it” he replied!
(And no I don’t mind any of them doing it - it’s their home and none of them do it beyond the front door, so why not? It looks like a very cosy relationship.)

I just gotta love the guy. He stands up for the women and is always on for some fun.
He da bomb!

Yes (love), yes, very.
I would give up my legs before my penis. Perhaps a whole arm and hand. Maybe go as far as to say be blind but not be without my penis.

Well I certainly don’t play with my feet, fingers, eyes or ears every night. So I could stand to lose any of them before I’d **let go of my dick**.

A penis is more useful than legs, or arms, or fingers to be honest.
I can’t piss out of my foot, for example.

Can you walk around on your penis? Manipulate tools with it?
Obvioulsy women and animals without human male genitalia can pee…

Well, if removing my penis instantly turned me into a woman, then I’d be all for it. But if it was lopped off and I remained male, then I think that would be a bit of a problem. Unless they re-routed by urertha down my leg and out through my foot.
That’d be fucking awesome.

In Kathmandu lives the Willy Man, or so he’s been informally dubbed. Apparently, he can lift things with it, similar to an elephant’s trunk, and he’ll perform this feat in front of you for a nominal fee. Or so our Lonely Planet guide said; we opted not to seek him out.

In [Prime](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0387514/) (2005) Uma Thurman tells Meryl Streep (about Streep’s son, although Thurman does not know she’s his mother): “His penis is so beautiful I just want to knit it a hat.”

This has been referenced a couple of times already, but here’s the full monty, so to speak.
NSFW…and put on headphones or turn the speakers down.
