Despite the title of this post, nope, this has nothing to do with Jane Fernandes or the mess at Gallaudet. It’s merely this small item I spotted while putting the finishing touches on yesterday’s post, about a woman who used her bare hands to rip off a very sensitive portion of her husband’s anatomy. You can read about this here (and here, if for some reason the first link disappears).

As a proud member of the male sex and gender, I’m definitely wincing. I’m flashing back to Lorena Bobbitt, and thanking my lucky stars I have a wife who loves and respects *all* of me. If you’re a man, you’ll understand where I’m coming from- we guys wince, and then don’t talk about this. If you’re a woman, you may be sitting there bemused. In the meantime, I’m happy to know modern medicine ensured the poor guy is intact once again…
