He claims that they are both fully functional in every way, and that he has no other birth defects, whether associated with this (mainly spina bifida) or not.

I am extremely skeptical and think he’s totally making it all up, especially the part where he’s said he has had more than 1,000 partners, both men and women. :dubious:

You’d think SOMEBODY would have said something before this, even if it was his pediatrician writing a paper about it.

The condition, called diphallus, occurs in about 1 live birth in 5 million, and like I said elsewhere in this post, babies with it rarely survive, let alone lead normal lives, because they have so many other things wrong with them.

What do y’all think about this? 😕

Which reminds me of this classic video from the early 1990s. NSFW.

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYwiwbgMusY](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYwiwbgMusY)

I first heard of the song in a Dave Barry column. He was talking about checking out a local college station, where the DJ played a song called “and I am not making this up, ‘Detachable Penis’.”

😃

I thought he WAS making it up, until I saw the video late one evening on MTV, which did play music at one time.

p.s. Someone on another website, which is almost all women, posted a link to a photo that is allegedly of Mr. DD. One is circumcised, the other isn’t. 😕

This guy (at least I think it’s the same guy) did a AMA on reddit: [I am the guy with two penises](http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/1u75hh/i_am_the_guy_with_two_penises_ama).

Diphallia is rare but not unheard of.

You labeled it NSFW so I’m sure you know what was in the link. Please comply with the two click rule. I added the spoiler box.

For those of you who don’t like clicking on NSFW links, it is the music video for the song mentioned. It is mildly NSFW since it has a fake penis in it. IIRC it was pixelated when played on TV.

I didn’t look all that close, but that certainly looked like an undoctored photo to me.

I guess women will never need to wonder whether he’s typing with one hand to them.

Probably typing with his nose.

Depending on the scene, it was either fuzzied or covered with a black rectangle.

The resolution isn’t good enough to see it on You Tube, but the drumhead has an interesting bit of graffiti on it. The song came out a few months after R.E.M.'s “Automatic for the People”, and someone drew a spiky thing on the drumhead, wrote “AUTOMATIC FOR THE PENIS” around it, and “K.M.” in the middle. 😛

No spoiler box needed for this:

> **[Automatic for the People](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_for_the_People)**

> Automatic for the People is the eighth studio album by the American alternative rock band R.E.M., released on October 5, 1992, in the United Kingdom and Europe, and on the following day in the United States, by Warner Bros. Records. R.E.M. began production on the album while their previous album, Out of Time (1991), was still ascending charts and achieving global success. Aided by strings arranged by John Paul Jones and conducted by George Hanson, Automatic for the People features ruminations on ...

I saw an article on-line a day or two ago, that included several still photos. Looked real, but who really knows what you can photoshop these days. Yeah, one cut, one uncut. I don’t recall if the article explained why that. Both allegedly fully functional, but one of them apparently a little more so than the other.

The guy apparently not only has two dicks, but he really knows how to use them. He claims (or is claimed by someone?) to be _massively_ promiscuous, with male and female partners alike.

Hang on, I’ll see if I can dredge up some NSFW links . . .
