Just goes to show that sometimes your wife loses HER temper, and YOU go off half-cocked.

The worst part is, after he got out of the hospital, he went to a nightclub to drown his sorrows, and the bouncer said “Sorry, pal – members only.”

It’s supposed to be not very good. And they have the advantage of starting with an intact clitoris with all its nerves.

As the saying goes, it’s easier to dig a hole than to build a pole. My understanding from FtM trans friends and acquaintances is that it’s really for aesthetic purposes more than anything else; e.g., one of the areas they’ll commonly take skin from to build the new penis is the inside of your arm. Guys, go ahead and rub the inside of your arm. Does it feel anything like masturbating? Didn’t think so. I can’t think of any trans men I’ve met who’ve had bottom surgery, just top.

As \*\*Trihs \*\*also observed, an SRS going either way starts with the existing genitalia. You don’t just chop them off and make something new from scratch.

Wait, he had two? I’m not sure he’d want to give the second one away.

For instance, a recent article in the medical literature described the unfortunate case of a Saudi Arabian lad who at age two was the unfortunate victim of an inept practitioner of a ghastly home medical technique known as “guillotine-type circumcision,” the details of which I leave to the imagination.
> 
> Having been left with a three-quarter-inch “micropenis,” as one doctor rather tactlessly put it, the poor fellow underwent reconstructive surgery in his 20s using skin grafts from his thigh. This gave him a penis that was about three inches long when fully erect, which I guess must be considered an improvement. However, the results, judging from the photos helpfully supplied with the article, leave something to be desired from an aesthetic standpoint.

So, it looks like this fellow may be able to get some sort of functioning unit back; however, it will require a lot of surgery I expect.

Keeping in mind that I might very well be a total stick in the mud, I don’t actually find this story funny at all - it’s just sad and the woman is obviously a nut bar.

My local news station’s website headline is “Man’s private part cut off, put through garbage disposal”. Private part? Seriously? That’s some real reportin’ there.

Not to mention the horror of having experienced this at all. There is absolutely NO excuse for doing this to another human being; it’s ghastly. I hope she is punished to the full extent of the law. What a terrible story.

To be honest, half of mankind seem to get along fine without a penis. But you are right. As a man I can tell you there is nothing quite like the thrill of experiencing your ejaculate squirting through the full length of your uretha, stimulating the lower corpus all the way to the glans for a spectacular finish.

Kill the bitch !

Duuuude. From what I can tell, the “guillotine” type circumcision is in fact an improvement on prior techniques.

The internet community can find humor in EVERYTHING. They will find humor with the left hand and offer sympathy/assistance/condolences with the right hand.

Those who can’t deal with gallows humor, or humor at the expense of their pet interests or sacred cows or humor about rape or babies or rape babies should just fuck off from the internet entirely. You are only cruisin’ for an offendin’.

I don’t think it’s just the fact that people can find humor in this. It’s that if the sexes were reversed in the story, the comments would likely be far less comical. This disparity is what draws people’s ire.

A husband chopping off his wife’s penis would be just as funny, provided you’re into absurdist humor.

If I say to a white man, “You are lazy and not as smart as others and you just want to drink a 40 ounce and make babies” it will not have the same sting as it would if I say it to a black man.

There are details, circumstances, differences in experiences that come into play and make the situations unequal.

Same as with anything. There is a reason folks find jokes about a woman abusing a man funnier or more easily made than the reverse. So what. We can’t control what people find funny.

Did you just try to **BIGT** this thread, and tell me that the internet is scary and we need to learn how to deal with all the nasty people who just wont be nice? Trust me you silly little girl, I have no illusions about the internet, and I have even less outrage about anything said on here.

What I do have is a sincere desire to wait until the next RO thread about a woman being raped, where hopefully I will get a laugh at her expense. God, when it happens I hope the rapist cuts her tits off, plenty of pun potential when that happens.

You’re gonna have to make it funnier than that. Right now your premise is just kind of a bummer.

Yeah, so, I have no clue what you have going on with BigT, but I’m quite certain I have my own style and don’t need ‘BigT’s’ so I will set that nonsense aside.

I will laugh. I will laugh at female rape. Male rape. Baby rape. Gay rape. If it is funny, I will laugh. If I laugh at every damn joke made at my expense, I am going to damn well laugh at whatever the hell I want to. Maybe not always out loud in real life. But if I can’t get my inappropriate chuckles off on the internet then I don’t want to be a messageboarder anymore.
