Some men too fat to see their own penis

LONDON: A shocking 33 percent of 35 to 60-year-olds are so overweight that their manhood is hidden from sight when they stand upright and look downwards, a new study has revealed.

According to the survey of 1,000 men commissioned by WeLoveOurHealth.co.uk, a staggering 44 per cent of those aged between 51 and 60 fail the “spot the penis” test.

Obese men who are unable to see their penises are said to be five times more likely to develop type 2 diabetes and three times more likely to develop colon cancer.

“This new research is really worrying and men must be encouraged to wake up to the potential life-threatening risks of being overweight and to make this vital check,” the Sun newspaper quoted A and E specialist Dr Johan du Plessis, who also works as WeLoveOurHealth.co.uk‘s online doctor, as saying.

and one would want to gaze at their penis to what end?

I haven't seen mine in a long time and I don't really
find myself sitting around fanticizing about what it
might look like after all these years.

I would imagine it's like a woman's boobs -
they wonder why men are so facinated
when they seem to care less.

I wonder if the guy told his parents about his findings
and if his parents now wonder where they went wrong

Oh well, yawn....

People are joking about this but there's an underlying psychological reason for this that no one wants to broach.
