Someone Else’s Penis?
Here is a harrowing news story from ChinaDaily.com, which I found yesterday. I’m just gonna quote it. I don’t think it requires any more input, from me.
Man rejects first penis transplant
Chinese surgeons have performed the world’s first penis transplant on a man whose organ was damaged beyond repair in an accident this year.
The incident left the man with a 1cm-long stump with which he was unable to urinate or have sexual intercourse. “His quality of life was affected severely,” said Dr Weilie Hu, a surgeon at Guangzhou General Hospital.
Doctors spent 15 hours attaching a 10cm penis to the 44-year-old patient after the parents of a brain-dead man half his age agreed to donate their son’s organ.
The procedure, described in a case study due to appear in the journal European Urology next month, represents a big leap forward in transplant surgery; it required complex microsurgery to connect nerves and tiny blood vessels.
The surgical team claims the operation was a success. After 10 days, tests revealed the organ had a rich blood supply and the man was able to urinate normally.
Doctors have previously succeeded in reuniting men with their sexual organs after traumatic accidents or attacks, but the Guangzhou operation is the first in which a donor penis has successfully been attached to another man.
Although the operation was a surgical success, surgeons said they had to remove the penis two weeks later. “Because of a severe psychological problem of the recipient and his wife, the transplanted penis regretfully had to be cut off,” Dr Hu said. An examination of the organ showed no signs of it being rejected by the body.
Clearly, in the Chinese case the failure at a very early stage was first psychological. It involved the recipient’s wife and raised many questions.
Andrew George, a transplant expert at Imperial College, London, said: “Doing a penis transplant should be no more complex than anything else. But it takes time for nerve sensations to kick in and it’s not clear whether the patient would ever be able to have sex with it. The question is whether it’s right to be doing a transplant for what may be seen as cosmetic reasons.”
OK, so maybe I will comment. “Cosmetic Reasons”?!? The man has no cock! Needless to say, the whole thought of having someone elses external organs attached to your body is traumatic enough, but this guy has basically lost two penises!
Care for your cock, my boys… it is precious!

In order to help us recover from that harrowing tale, I have a nice Readers Cock gallery for you. Today’s submitter is from the UK and is, according to the man himself, “a good 7.5″ with a very thick girth”. I have had a damn good look, and I think he’s right.
All shaved and shiny, here he is!
Don’t forget, you can e-mail me your cock pics, too. There’s a link at the top right-hand corner of this page. How horny would that be? Well, very, for me!
