Female mutilation is standard practice in parts of the world. Has been for generations.

I can provide links for the flat earth society. Doesn’t mean the earth is flat.

Men and women are aroused by different things? Imagine that!

It’s far more clever than the conjecture you’ve contributed thus far.

I’m watching Veep right now, and I imagine the OP looks and sounds exactly like Jonah Ryan. Which would explain a lot.

I don’t see the Great Debate promised here.

IMHO, the OP is ridiculous and has provided absolutely no evidence for his “theory” while expressing some seriously misogynistic attitudes towards women in general.

Haven’t been to many slasher movies have you?

And that’s just mainstream. There is unfortunately no shortage of men who enjoy sexual violence against women and portrayals thereof.  
Anyway, that hypothetical “survey says!” I did? Of course there are [real](https://www.drfelix.co.uk/most-attractive-body-parts/) ones and the answers in fact surprise me.

Most common answer for most attractive body part of women by men? Boobs? Legs? Ass? Nope. Face. More than twice the next closest.

Of men by women? Gotta be face, right? Nope. Chest followed closely by hair then arms.

Show me genitalia! (Boy does that come off wrong …) Bzzzzt.

Male junk, female junk … it aint our pretty parts in general. We just like what they do.

Hm, still pictures are not that enthralling [female discussing looking at make genitalia] however live action can be very entrancing - it moves, it inflates, it lets out little pearls of pre-cum, if stimulated to finishing, it pulses and lets out cum. You can run a finger along it gently and watch the muscles and skin react, and you can play with it in all stages of erection. You can enjoy the feel of the skin texture with fingers or tongue, or even the taste [though smokers were never my favorite, you can taste the nicotine and other chemicals in the sweat or skin oils.] Men reputedly enjoy playing with the female genitals for similar reasons - taste, touch, look.

[I will admit not over fond of still pictures of porn, though at least movies have motion. I much prefer the live body next to mine.]

I think much of **Faylasouf** ’s process is reasoning is wrong, but the \*points/observations \*that are made are valid, just poorly arrived at:

1. Women and men think differently;
2. Violence by women against men is regarded differently than violence by men against women;
3. Women have an easier time getting sex than men;
4. Women and men are attracted to different things;
5. Men often project their thinking onto women and think women think the same way they do.

I knew a woman who hated penises.

At first I thought it was because she thought they were ugly, but as it turns out it was because when she was a little girl a penis killed her dad.

I think I agree with that basically. A lot of the responses seem to be of the theme that (straight) men’s and women’s sexuality is similar, mirror image etc which IME it really isn’t. Exaggerating the degree to which their sexuality is similar is I guess a means of countering use of the differences as reason, excuse etc for any remaining power imbalance between men and women in society. But I think serious differences clearly exist, in general.

The OP’s version is pretty extreme though. Without calling anybody names I tend to think it might be intended to ‘stir debate’ rather than any reasonable person actually literally believing the first post in all details.

Did it get sacked, as opposed to having one?

I don’t believe these stories of male members being cut off anyway. After all the penis is mightier than the sword.

Try [this one](http://www.grouprecipes.com/59411/penis-stew.html). It specifies ram’s or bull’s, but I’m sure other models would work, too…

A crazy thread. Most women like sex, and for that you need a penis.

The women who don’t like sex either feel bad about their bodies, or have physical issues the make it uncomfortable.
