penis thefts...beware to all men.....

[Psychomum5]

He stole my penis!!!!

sorry.....this made me giggle!!!

No way that's too weird and violent to be funny. I'm really curious now about what on earth is going on there! Is it real?

wtf

How bizarre. The Invasion of the Penis Snatchers.

what made me giggle was that I thought it surely to be a hoax, but am not sure reading more into it......making me wince now.

the shrinking is funny tho, how do they know that the man wasnt tiny to begin with.

I put the following on another thread about this subject.

"I live in Africa and there is still a massive belief in witchcraft so this story doesn't surprise me. I think when you have no money, no education and no way out it is probably easy to believe in weird things. Having said which, it isn't confined to such people. There have been tales about candidates for political office taking part in voo-doo ceremonies which involve human blood to enhance their chance of winning. Presumably such people are well educated yet they still believe in such things."

The control of the mind is a powerful thing- if they think they are impotent/small they will be, these voodoo "doctors" are very much believed out there & so their power grows.

havent read the article but have you read the famished road

i found it very powerful

other topical news atm are the regenerative powders of modern medicine. so where there is theft there maybe hope...

"But when you try to tell the victims that their penises are still there, they tell you that it's become tiny or that they've become impotent. To that I tell them, 'How do you know if you haven't gone home and tried it'," he said.

He has a very fair point

Famished Road is amazing

i dont think his subsequent books are but that one is

Did you see the related link to
Indian baby dropping ritual!

I have liked all the Ben Okri books have read, he does a good one about an artist. He has such a special way of putting a sentence together.. anyway back to dicks

Another vote for the Famished Road, it's like reading a dream.

"But when you try to tell the victims that their penises are still there, they tell you that it's become tiny"

Ah, so that explains it then! Anyone got a number for an exorcist?
