Cock-Chopping Craze Sweeps Thailand

Thai doctors blame penis hacking craze on lingering polygamy

BANGKOK (AFP) -- They have been boiled, fed to ducks, even attached to hot air balloons and cast into the night sky -- when it comes to permanently depriving a cheating lover of a recently severed penis, the imagination of the wronged Thai woman knows few bounds.

Thailand has become the world centre of penis reattachment surgery, but then it has been forced to be. While not unique to the kingdom, penis severing has been honed here to its most devastating effect through a heady mixture of routine infidelity, assertive womanhood and a national cuisine that lends itself to a kitchen full of sharp knives. [...]

The latest case was reported Tuesday when a 29-year-old farmer in northeastern Thailand was admitted to hospital for surgery with a severed penis, claiming that his wife kicked him. The couple had fought, she then denied his requests for sex and kicked him when he complained, according to his account to doctors. Such were the length of her toe nails, she severed his penis.

    The news story that justifies the last 15 minutes of my life being spent on LiveJournal. Kudos.

    My girlfriend, to the imaginary cheating penis floating away into the night sky on a hot air balloon: "Be free!"

    I think the name of their capital, Bangkok, should be changed.

    Best line:

    "If you have a mistress they (wives) will get mad and cut it any time, so make her very happy, always carry a thermos to put it in and keep the name of a good doctor close by," he said.

    This piqued my curiosity, as to the proper vacuum bottle to keep handy in the event of sudden "unplanned severance".

    Googling for penis thermos, incidentally, shows that approximately every page on the entire Internet has the term "penis" appearing on links pointing to it.

    The Thermo D'Amour is charming, though.

    Yeah, she kicked me and her massive toenails severed my penis, that's the ticket.

    What do you suppose this guy was really doing that he doesn't want to admit?

    Attempting sex with some kind of thresher? Trying to figure out how to remove his wife's adamantium skeleton?
