Having your penis chopped off isn't the best way to improve your love life, but John Wayne Bobbitt swears that was a bizarre side effect after his ex-wife, Lorena, chopped off his manhood 20 years ago this week.
The doctors told me I would never be able to have sex again because my injuries were so bad. But Ive proved them wrong time and time again. I believe Ive slept with 70 women since the incident," Bobbitt told the Sun.
"Being the most famous man to have his penis chopped off does have its advantages. It definitely has not hurt my love life -- in fact, it improved it.
I guess some women got a kick out of saying they slept with John Wayne Bobbitt. ...................(more)

OP
Considering he repeatedly beat up and raped his wife, I never had much sympathy for the guy.

Hey, as long as he's happy. Whatever happened to Loreena Scissorhands?

I read somewhere that the grafting and scarification from the procedure to reattach it gave him close to an additional half-inch.

(72,300 posts)9. We both know ... it's what one does with his penis that counts.
An extra 1/2 inch is small measure that's not likely to add any pleasure.
However ... the scarification could be a plus.

Not that he necessarily deserved what he got - mutilation-as-punishment is way too Medieval for my tastes - but Lorena did what she did for a reason. She wasn't just "crazy" or "evil."

Talk to me when you've done something worthwhile.
