Colombian Farmer Castrates Himself
http://itn.co.uk/422b28796478775fcd8b58e2773c6e38.html

It is a man's worst nightmare but for Colombian farmer Luis Alfonso Sanchez it seemed the logical thing to do.

The 40-year-old decided to castrate himself to avoid cheating on his wife who refused to have sex with him.

Mr Sanchez had performed the act on many of his animals in the past and believed the procedure would be as easy for him saying: "I've castrated pigs, cats, dogs and three days later they are healed.

"I thought that's what it was going to be like with me. I had practice with animals, so I went ahead, put some pressure on it, and cut them to remove them by force!"

"When I saw that I could no longer count on her (his wife), so that I would't keep bothering her, I made the decision to cut my testicles off because I am a Christian and did not want to go look for another (partner)."

The man is being treated at Santander Hospital where Dr. Javier Martinez said he is still healing: "He still has an escroto-penial hematoma. He's been looked at by the urology department, and they found a complete absence of the testicles."

According to doctors, Sanchez's wounds have become infected.

21. It must be the Catholicism - look at the millions and millions of other
Catholic males who have done this.

Cheat on your wife, go see priest, confess, say prayers and ask forgiveness, repeat as necessary.

It's a proven system! Jeeez.

6. what irony it would be if we found out she cheats on him
Maybe that's the reason she was no longer interested in him; she was getting it on the outside.

17. Maybe he's one of these people that wants body parts cut off?
I recently saw on Discovery Health some man that hacked his arm off. It excites them or something. I don't know.

26. Why did she refuse to have sex with him?
Not that it's not her right to say no to him, but is this a one time event where she told him that she wasn't interested, or was it a "I will never have sex with you again" moment?

28. If I ever tell you that, your job is to run, because I've been replaced by an alien.
Seriously though, I'm pretty sure that cutting one's spouse off is grounds for an annulment, so crazy ubercatholic dude could have traded Mrs. Frigid in on some hot young thing with church approval instead of performing an act of amateur veterinary surgery on himself.

31. About what?
The dreaded "headache", the Catholic church's extremely arcane, political and expensive process for dissolving a relationship, or self-castration?

The answers are yes, yes, and I certainly fucking hope so. In that order.

He was likely undersized and VERY insecure about it.


Honestly, I don't want to sound like a wretch - but think about it.
