says he has a 0.38in member
Poor guy. I’ve been with women who have clits bigger than that.
The 2-decimal precision of the measurement is also an interesting touch.
I’m glad I’m not him, but if I were him, I think I’d learn from the Sisterhood and get skillful with fingers and tongue. I’d be nervous having anyone chopping on my winkie, for whatever reason, though microsurgery can be amazingly good these days.
You know, it could be worse. I for exemple have a good sized penis but I got 0 action in 10years. I wouldn’t mind trading length for occurrence
is your username about your penis
Poor unused noodle
Hold up, nobody even asked me
Then there would be nothing special about him :(
He’ll just be the guy who USED TO have the world’s smallest penis. But nobody will believe him when he whips out his perfectly average penis.
He said he’s struggling to approach “females”…
All of a sudden my empathy’s on strike.
Wo-men. How hard is it to use the humanizing word?
Edit : my preshot was correct, in the end of the article, it’s reported that he sent unsolicited intimate pics and made fatphobic insults.
The surgery might be expensive, but it will save a lot of money over the years with current fuel prices, as he can go drive a normal car instead of a massive truck. More Americans should do this, especially fElon and diaper Donny.
and that’s just the tip of the matter
that’s the problem, it’s not just the tip, it’s the whole thing!
Joking aside, what a rotten bit of genetic luck with which to get saddled. Best of luck, guy.
I’ve heard stories from ladies that made my eyes water. Guys they liked and decided to get physical with only to discover they were working with something roughly the size of their own clitoris. It really is an immediate dealbreaker much of the time, and you can’t blame them for wanting a functional sex life. Poor dudes really got worked by chance. I can’t even figure out how evolution has left this a possibility.
I’m pretty sure the physical structure starts developing in utero before the gender is finalized…and then it becomes either a clitoris or a penis. Crossed wires, mebbe?
Evolution works by minimizing this kind of abnormality, but it never disappears. There’s just too much variance in how our DNA works. That’s a good thing, though, because the environment is not static. Without any variance, we would have died out a long long time ago. We need to adapt to survive in new environmental conditions.
It’s a good point that traits may not be useful now but could be useful later. Perhaps I just lack Imagination but I can’t visualize the change of season that’s going to make micropenis a survival advantage.
Sometimes it’s not the thing that gives an advantage, but the thing it’s connected to. Perhaps the same same gene that gives them a micropenis also makes them really fit in some other area. It’s unlikely, but possible that the genetic mutation makes them immune to some devastating disease in the future. Genetics are complex.
Evolution still doesn’t work that way. If it prevents you from reproducing (like this probably would), it will be selected against, meaning it will be extremely rare (like this is), but it will never just go away unless it isn’t compatible with life (eg, missing an X chromosome).
It could be useful in a cold climate
He’s about halfway there:

Wait…penis enlargement surgery EXISTS??? Why don’t all men know about this??? Hang on guys, I’m going to find out what the largest penis in history has been…and then I’m getting TRIPLE that size!!!
For what i recall, from being chronically online:
They go in around your lil guy and release the shaft from everything around it and shift it forwards. It gives you more visibility of what exists but does not actually make anything bigger. Idk about adding anything, because i did not look into it further.
Apparently it’s only girth they can modify. Not length.
It’s my understanding that it’s more of a last case scenario kind of thing, like, most guys don’t want to have surgery on their penis and it can also have complications too.
Yeah, unnecessary surgery around all those nerve endings sounds crazy.
Congratulations on your new 14 inch wang, no feeling.
Yeah… I don’t think they can add nerves or whatever tissue your the dick is made out of… I wouldn’t think the end result could be all that functional. Who gives a shit about aesthetics if you can’t cum…
They can’t add nerves, but they can connect existing ones assuming there’s an effective technique for the structure (probably not when you’re going for something this…inhuman)
Rumor is that’s what happened to Elon’s dick. Botched enlargement surgery.
I would say it’s probably not worth it just because you will most likely have sensory loss and erectile dysfunction which for most would be worse than the problem its self. Theres more risks as well, but those alone sound like a nope from me.
The real question is, why isn’t this covered by Medicaid?!
It exists, but the complications are prohibitive for someone that isn’t hit with disability level malformation. Plus, there’s a limit to what it can do
/uj some of us are happy with what we got. Also there is a things as too big. I don’t want to hurt my partner.
/rj you sure you want 3 Steven Millers on your crotch?
The surgery went a success but as a complication you can no longer get a boner.
There is a ligament that can be relocated to make a flaccid penis appear larger, but there is no enlargement surgery.
There are implants. Men are getting some gnarly complications like ED, infections.

I just learned about IPPs (Inflatable Penile Implants) and they seem pretty cool if your penis was otherwise non-functional, but as others have said, any surgery on my penis is pretty much a last resort.
Michael Phillips said online on Thursday that he needed the procedure to improve his ability to urinate, which is difficult for him given that he is reportedly 0.38in (0.97cm) long when fully erect. Otherwise, he said he must continue to wear diapers for adults with incontinence every day.
This is a compelling reason. Let’s help the guy out. Donated.
I thought guy on the pic was Hasan
I kinda feel for the guy. That’s a really unfortunate situation. He says it’s the size of a pinky finger nail. It’s gotta be hard for him to go to the bathroom, which he says is why he wants it enlarged.
Damn this is almost a transitioning operation. Give him a big hog now.
This is actually a great example of how the majority of ‘gender affirming care’ is actually for a person who is already assigned at birth the gender they are affirming.
This male, who was assigned male at birth, is seeking gender affirming care to become… more male.
He doesn’t need anyone to “affirm” shit, he wants to be able to take a piss.
Yes.
That’s literally gender affirming.
And women who get breast implants after receiving a double mastectomy are simply restoring their body back to what it was, neither affirming or changing but rather ‘restoring’ the appearance. The category of operations received is still called gender affirming.
Anything that is manipulating the body more in line with the perceived gender is called gender affirming care.
And it doesn’t even need to be surgeries. Men with low T receiving testosterone shots is a form of gender affirming care.
And yes, I read the article.
It’s still under the umbrella of gender affirming care, as are men getting breast reduction surgery or hair replacement. If you’re implying it needs to be for sex, then I don’t think you understand gender very well.
Let him sit?

I wonder if he’s tried pee funnels. They allow women to pee standing up. In fact, given how women all manage peeing I am surprised that his doctor says his only option is to wear diapers. Can he not sit and pee and make that work? Perhaps not. Inquiring minds want to know.
I would assume the incontinence is because he is incontinent and not because he doesn’t know how to sit down, but I’m not motivated enough to look it up.
I don’t actually see it written anywhere that he is incontinent, as in he can’t control when he pees.
You might have thought this because the Guardian article says he must “wear diapers for adults with incontinence,” but that appears to be a descriptor of the diapers, not him.
In his GoFundMe he gets more specific:
I have a condition called Micropenis which causes me to be only 0.38 inches, which has made everyday tasks like using the restroom without making a mess is extremely difficult for me. Because of this, my doctor has advised that I must use pull ups unless I can pursue a medical procedure to help increase the size and improve my ability to urinate.
So it does sound like a physical issue getting the pee into the toilet, not general incontience.
why cant he just sit to urinate like half the population already do though
Maybe he can’t angle it downward?
I commend him for publicly talking about it. I also commend him on his ability to admit his poor behavior. I genuinely hope he gets what he wants from this experience.
He must have a HUGE truck
that must be really hard
I think difficult would probably have been a better word to use.
did I stutter?
No, but you misspoke.
Does this qualify as gender-affirming healthcare?
Almost certainly. Gender affirming care also includes things like breast reduction for men, and anything else that is done to make someone appear more like the stereotypical form of a given gender. It doesn’t matter if you’re assigned that gender at birth either.
Maybe? The article says he has trouble urinating and has to wear diapers. One of the goals of the surgery is so he can urinate properly and presumably not have wear diapers any longer. So I can sympathize with him. On the other hand, it doesn’t appear that the surgery is strictly medically necessary either.
