After your 200th post, it becomes increasingly common 😃

A significant bend can be a sign of Peyronie’s disease, a benign but troubling fibrosing disorder. Happy Googling.  
By the way, this is probably more of a General Questions post than one for the pit.

It depends on how bent it is. If it has a slight curve it is normal. If it has a drastic curve, anything from a banana shape to a C or U shape then it is unormal (and not as fun to play with). 😃

For men, yes.  
For women, no.

BTW, pigs’ penii are corkscrew shaped. Are you sure you’re not a pig?

I have it on the best authority that a bent penis is an object to covet.

(Does it still count if it’s phrased as “Sure, it’s a little small, but that curve drives me around the bend”?)

Damn **Libertarian** , I thought I could be the first but you beat me to it.

Anyway, speaking for myself, my bent penis is perfectly normal.

What’s this doing in the pit?

Bent penis normal? Dear god, I hope so. I don’t think I need any more psychological hangups.

How bout that I was just talking about that with the SO last night. She said, “you’re penis is curved.” I thought uh yeah isn’t that the way it’s supposed to be? I asked her if it bothered her and she said no that she liked it actually, she said it allowed me to get into more positions.

She’s been the first to coment on the curve so I’m guessing it’s not that bad. Good lord I can’t believe I’m doing this but I’m looking around the office for something that would give the best representation of the curve. The best I can come up with is a staple remover. :eek:

I’d say that unless it bends around and touches itself you should be ok.

I can’t believe that for my 1000th post I’m talking about little Eddie.

There was a long standing joke I had going with one of my ex’s in regards to his being able to pee around a telephone pole… 😉

Also gave the illusion of extra _width_ in certain respects. ::blushing furiously::
