Man receives penis transplant — would you go through with such an operation?
Thomas Manning, 64, received the donated organ three years after his penis was amputated due to penile cancer. He is the third man worldwide to have had the experimental surgery performed.
He is is expected to regain normal urination and sexual function in the next few months.
If you had your penis amputated for whatever reason would you go through and have a donor penis transplant? I have no idea how I would cope if I had mine amputated — there are many aspects of life to consider.
- General urination functions
- Sexual pleasures
- Looking at and handling someone else's penis
- What would women think of it
- Would it work and feel like your own
I'm sure I'd rather have a penis than not have one — but I don't know how I'd feel handling someone else's penis even if it was attached to me. Sure, it is just a body part! Women don't have a problem touching ours so what's the big deal? Perhaps the transplanted penis might be bigger than the amputated one. That would have to be a plus for many of us — I know I'd like that aspect. But would women frown on that the way some guys disapprove of enhanced breasts?
There is a psychological issue for men touching another mans penis.
In 2006 a Chinese man who received the world's first penis transplant decided after two weeks to reverse the transplant. Doctors removed the donated penis following a "severe psychological problem" experienced by him and his wife.
So guys — would you do it? Also ladies, how would you feel meeting a guy who had a transplanted penis?
