Truly, a missed opportunity

From the Washington Post (emphasis mine):
NEWARK, N.J. — A New Jersey woman pleaded not guilty Tuesday to causing a man’s death with an injection of silicone he hoped would enlarge his penis — a procedure experts cautioned doesn’t work.
Kasia Rivera, 35, could face up to ten years in prison if convicted of reckless manslaughter in the death of 22-year-old Justin Street... 
Dr. Daniel S. Elliott, an associate professor of urology at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., said it was the first case he’d heard of involving a silicone injection to the penis, but he’s dealt with similar cases where patients had attempted to enlarge their penises with injections of fat or other substances. 
None of it works, Elliott emphasized, adding that there is no medical justification for the procedure. 
“If there were a legitimate method for penile lengthening, Johnson & Johnson or Pfizer would have bought it up and made billions and billions of dollars worldwide,” Elliott said. “The fact that they don’t means it does not exist.”
Man, if only PFE had not shut down that division at Sandwich!

    You mean the 20 lb weights hanging from Captain Thunder won't help lengthen him?

    there is no good method for widening but you can actually get an extra inch of lengt surgically - about one third is hidden in the belly so it could be pulled out a bit more, but you have to go under knife and there are possible complications. Also removing a layer of abdominal fat helps.

    I think this is the most disgusting thing I read on the internets at least in the last week. Didn't expect to find it on this blog though... Well whatever. Now to wait until the disturbing images are gone from my head.

    I don't know what is wrong with these people. I'm perfectly happy with the 1.5 inches that I'm blessed with

    Uncle sam: for even more disturbing mental images, please pause for a moment to consider how they turn boy into a girl, in the sex change surgery: they perform the incision lengt-wise, separate the two halves and then invert the whole thing inside out- just like a rubber glove

    Females have been victims also. A woman in Philadelphia has been charged with murder when a woman diewd after she injected silicone in her buttocks.
