World's 1st Penis Transplant Done In South Africa
PolygamousRanchKid writes The world's first successful penis transplant has been performed by surgeons in South Africa, Bloomberg News reported Friday. The 21-year-old recipient has made a full recovery and regained all functions in the transplanted organ. The nine-hour operation was done Dec. 11 by surgeons from Stellenbosch University and Cape Town's Tygerberg Hospital, the university said Friday in a statement. The unidentified patient had his penis amputated three years ago in a life-saving procedure after he developed complications from a traditional circumcision. "Our goal was that he would be fully functional at two years and we are very surprised by his rapid recovery," said Dr. Andre van der Merwe, head of the university's urology division, who led the surgical team.
According to the very article, there was a medically successful transplant in 2006 that was later removed only because of the patient's severe psychological reaction.

When I was a teenager, if we we didn't like some chick, we'd tell our friends "I wouldn't screw he with your dick!"
Now he will always do that
I'll bet masturbation is awkward to think about as well.

Indeed. Now how long before a Nigerian prince can offer me low cost penile transplants?
Funny you should say that.
Only this morning I received an email from the director of the St Peter Private hospital in Benin City, stating that I was the only surviving relative of Nigerian prince who had died in a horrendous accident. Do to the nature of that accident they only managed to save his penis, and that in order to maintain the royal line, they needed to transplant it onto me as soon as possible (something about the royal house's flag having a rampant penis - and requiring that rampant penis to be displayed on state occasions). Once this operation was performed I would be awarded all the rewards of that royal household (money, women, power - the usual stuff), but due the death of the prince causing the country to fall into paralysis, they needed me to send $5K to them so that they can fuel up the royal plane and send it out to collect me.
It all sounds legitimate, so I am off to pack my bags.
I am Slashdot. Are you Slashdot as well?
I never thought there would be a time the phrase "I wouldn't fuck her with your dick" might stand a chance of being modded insightful.
Some drink at the fountain of knowledge. Others just gargle.
Around my teenage years, I got circumcised because of medical complications of having my foreskin. My parents let me make the decision.
...about the guy with five penises?
His underwear fit like a glove.
