Cut it out, John Wayne Bobbitt





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.

"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)

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

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."
