"Fear Not, Doctors Have Penis Mutilation Well Figured Out"

Due to folks tuning in to Golden Pond after doing a google search, I am here with the follow up to this bizarre case. Unfortunately, the people dropping by are not looking at anything else.

Let's get to the subject at hand. Oops. Pun unintended. There is a funny pun in the article to follow that I'm sure was unintentional.


Not to be outdone by truTV, whose exhaustive guide to criminal castration we linked to yesterday, the LA Times has put together its own comprehensive guide to penis mutilation–in the wake of the story of Garden Grove’s Catherine Kieu Becker, who recently sliced her husband’s penis off and ran it through the garbage disposal. It’s a surprisingly long piece, filled with useful information. For instance, though it was reported that Becker’s victim will likely lose his original penis, doctors can construct a new one from parts of his arm.

If the nerves are connected properly the patient may get erogenous sensations, particularly in the head of the penis. But because the arm does not contain the soft, spongy tissue typical of the penis, the patient cannot get an erection. That problem is overcome by implanting, well after the initial repairs have healed, a prosthetic implant, such as a hydraulic pump. Overall, “it’s a long, complicated, expensive procedure,” Alter said. But when it is finished, the patient can get an erection, have intercourse and climax.

If you missed the pun, here it is: Catherine Kieu Becker, who recently sliced her husband’s penis off and ran it through the garbage disposal. It’s a surprisingly long piece,

P.S. I saw where Ms. Becker has just signed a contract with the Ginsu Steak Knives company. ( not mine-saw it in another article ).
