It’d make sense to say “Do you want a big penis?” since that could apply to both genders. Of course, just writing in lower case is enough to get read, mostly, so _nobody tell them!_ ---

_Oh thank god!_ I am so glad you guys are getting these too. I though maybe somebody had complained to the national unsatisfied women hotline about my sub-par performance or not up to snuff wedding tackle. Not that either would have been true- but still . . . . :rolleyes: ---

The spammers think I’m seriously fucked-up. I apparently need a larger cock, a larger bust, a fuller head of hair, and my credit is in serious need of “repair”( strangely enough, although I’m" at bankruptcy’s door",I qualify for a 5.25% mortgage if I “act immediately”). ---

I’ve gotten so many penis enlargement spam mails that I am starting to consider this as an option. My husband thinks I need to spend less time online. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/wtf-is-up-with-the-penis-enlargement-spammers/125496.md?page=1)
