Chinese boy born with...

[Elites]

an extra penis on his back.

Fetus in Fetu (FIF) is a rare and very mysterious medical condition that is said to have occurred (or at least is recorded to have occurred) less than ninety times throughout medical history.

For the little boy born in Tianjin’s Children Hospital in China, the second penis in the middle of his tiny back is a medical first and even weirder than some other instances of this highly unusual phenomenon.
The baby presented no problems when it came into the world with the help of midwives on May 27, 2008, at the Hejian Maternity Center, which is part of Tianjin Children’s Hospital.

What seemed like a routine birth, however, soon turned into a story from Ripley’s Believe it or Not, as midwives and medical staff could not have been more surprised to see a little boy endowed with a second penis in the middle of his back.

Born to farmer dad, Li Jun, 30, and his wife, who live in Central China’s Henan Province, the extra penis was safely removed.

There are complicated theories about this condition that relate to the abnormal formation of twins in utero (parasitic twin theory), but this manifestation is just too weird for any of the medical books.

For now, doctors are content to say that after three hours of surgery, the extra penis is gone and the little boy is doing fine.

Shoulda left it there, medical advancements fuck with evolution, what if he was our once-every-hundred-billion-years-deformation that would totally advance the human species? Like, maybe men in the future were supposed to have two penises to please two women at once and now that chance is gone...

Olde, from like a year ago. I think the thread also involved dead frog baby and hindu goddess (multi feet/hands) baby.

[Rockstaru]

At least it's a story that generated good puns.

there are people who have two dicks in the same area, there's a video on efukt if you're curious (they both work)

also, the fact that they removed it doesn't necessarily change the genetic coding that made it happen...for instance, you chop off someone's leg, they reproduce, the offspring won't have 1 leg simply because you chopped one off eh? so i'm not sure how viable your argument is that "medical advancements fuck with evolution", if that's true he'll still pass it on and more people will get the two dicks thing (also what if it was a vagina, all kinds of awesome there)

General is slipping lately. This has to be the sixth old story I've seen reposted in the past two weeks.

And fuck yeah, I would love a vagina back.

It's called diaphallus, 1 in 5.5 million in the US.

New meaning to put your back into it?

Only problem I can see with it, is that I am into skinny women and if I were to try to climb onto my girlfriends shoulders she would prolly snap in half.

penes.

So that's the plural of penis. Finally.

[Heian]

Its Penes

[Kuya]

Do you pronounce it literally like pens or peny, ... oh this is so exciting!

"Penys" apparently Penises is also correct for normal English use, but the Latin is Penes.

The Straight Dope: What is the plural of "penis"?

[miokomioko]

Anuses = Anii?

It looks like you pronounce it the same way you do in Spanish. Penes. I don't know how to make someone who doesn't speak Spanish understand how though.

edit: okay i got it, think of Pe-Ness. Like happyness.

Yeah pretty much, Latin root. I don't speak Spanish, bark twice if this is Wilt Chamberlain.

While you are right that the genetic coding doesn't change, I think teh evolutionary thing could deal with teh fact that having a penis on your back could provide some sort of mating advantage allowing for more kids to be made w/ penises on their back etc etc. Without that we shall never know!
