A Penis Bank? Just who is going to compose the deposit?

I just read that the Chinese performed a breakthrough penile transplant. Though unsuccessful, that raises many questions that remain unanswered.

First of all, who said “Hey, certain I’d love to donate my penis to a total stranger!”

Or what approximately being an organ donor? We all think of giving up our heart or kidneys or even pancreas. certain that is fine. I don’t need those things where I am going. But wait, do I really want my penis to live on for years after I am gone?

What whether there is an afterlife and you need your member? When you sign the organ donor card, I don’t think anyone really meant “that organ.” Clearly that is an issue that needs to be resolved before penis banks take off here in the States.

Then as things progress to the absurd, as they often do, are we going to see “designer penis banks” popping up? (no pun intended) Will you be able to go online and peruse a catalogue of premium penises to choose from or walk down Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills and see the newest high fashion Armani or Versace penis?

Will we get to the point where men get to change or improve their “parts” as women do so many body parts all through their lives? I can see it now: Get your midlife crisis Corvette model penis, new and improved by final year’s model!

And soon after who decides what is best? Is it the man looking for increased respect and admiration from his other male friends? “Hey, Jim did you get a look at Tom’s new companion? Pretty impressive!” will be heard from the men’s locker room.

Or does he go for impressing his wife? “Why thank you, honey, you remembered it’s my birthday!”

I think before we all jump on the “I want a new penis” bandwagon we need to step back and take a good look at ourselves. Is that really how we want to think of ourselves, with a sort of penis du jour attitude? I think not.
