Am I my penis?

The recent reports about the first penis transplant, and subsequent removal over the "mental anguish" has sparked a few ideas.

Are we (probably men mostly but women too maybe) so emotionally attached to our sex organs that we'd rather go without than have someone else's?

Is it just plain creepy having some dead guy's wang?

Are prosthetic penises a better idea?

And as you ponder these questions, show your genitals some love, tell them you'd miss them if they were gone.

I honestly don't know. Tough question. I hope that there would never be a situation in which I would have to make this decision.

YES! Possibly even more creepy, I would think, for the woman -- having some dead guy's wang inside her. (That's assuming it would be functional after transplant.) Think about that. *shudders*

Well, it cuts out (no pun intended) the need for a cadaver organ, eliminating a lot of the emotional strain, so . . . yeah. But, I guess I'd have to see how advanced a prosthetic penis was before making a final decision.

*snerk* :D
 
As I understand it, the removal was due to the wife having issues with it more than the guy. He must really love his wife...

Honey, you aren't a penis, you are a thumb. A penis (we can only hope) would be longer.

First, I would urge each male in Literotica to check your health insurance. I paid extra for a rider that says if they have to replace my cock, the replacement has to be at least as long and thick!

While I am definitely emotionally attached to my cock, I would definitely want a replacement if the unthinkable happened. HOWEVER, I am not interested in and upgrade at this time. [I have never had any complaints!]

I don't think prosthetic penises are a better idea. The one lady I know who would definitely go for the idea of have one used on her would want an atomic powered model at least a foot long and in black.
 
Well, I don't know....

I am kinda attached to my heart..but if I needed a new one in order to live, I'd opt for a heart transplant..

I like my eyes, they are a pretty green, but if I needed new ones in order to see, I'd opt to be a blue eyed babe...

If I were a guy and my penis was, well, cut off...and I enjoyed sex, like a normal man should....and the new penis I was getting would be in perfect working condition, I think I would opt for a new improved penis. As long as it got hard and did it's job...why not?

If they could take some chick's double D's and put them on me, WHY HELL YEAH....I'd take 'em....

Um, Sal Honey...Wanna go hitch hikin' with me?

How about doing an imitation of the Fonz?
 
OK after two cups of coffee I think I can talk coherently and objectively about my penis. And can contemplate a replacement for it should a tragic occurance seperate us.

I love my penis. It really is a nice one. Not too big, not too small, has gotten me in trouble in the past but only minor embarassments and a few small messes. It is the only part of my anatomy that I anthropomorphize into its own individual being.

If it got cut off or what have I would be distraught. To a certain extent yeah I do equate me penis as a version of me in some ways. It is my manhood and my masculinity.

That being said, I think if decent prosthetics were available I would choose them over a transplant. First and foremost for the creep factors of "I'm using someother guy's dong." Not to mention "I am using some dead guy's dong." Yes I'd love the feeling the sensations of sex, I'd miss that tingle and tension as I cum but because of that personalization, it has to be my dick or nobody's!

Secondly, I think with practice and effort that mentally contruct of "taking pleasure by giving pleasure" would kick in. Pride in making my partner have a mind shattering orgasm, the warmth and love of her face as she basks in that glow afterwards. Those would be my sexual gratifications even if my own climax were gone.

Third, given the state of technology and being a huge fan of open source innovations, I would call out to my hacker friends and fellow pervs to design not just a prosthetic penis but the swiss army knife of cocks! It'd have attahments that vibrated, pulsed, spurt out fluid, twitched flexed beeped buzzed and warmed up. It'light up, it swell and shrink, and I'd work blue tooth in there some how so phone sex would become so wicked fucking sexy!

I'm off to go give my john thomas a hug now.

:D
 
I don't think you can compare a penis to most other things that you transplant, simply because most things you transplant are internal organs, or something more abstract, like skin. It's a limb, part of a bloke's visual and kinetic identity.

I know my penis. I have a more personal relationship with it than I have with my liver. But it hasn't much to do (I think) with it being the symbol of my manhood or something like that. It's just that stuff I can see and feel seems to matter more.

If I lost a hand, I don't think I'd want someone else's hand either. I'd rather have a prostethic one.

Or the converse "phantom penis" phenomena. ;)
 
You know... i started writing a somewhat coherent reply, and ended up getting the giggles so bad the first girl came across the house to see if i was all right.

Any attempt as serious-ish-ness went blooie. Like the dead whale. Splattered all over.

That being said... Hey Thumb Man!! Can i be the guinea pig to see if your prosthetic works right? :devil:
