I have found 3 pages on the more stranger illnesses that can affect everday life for some people

POLYDACTYLISM
Still on the subject of hands, polydactylism is a congenital abnormality involving being born with too many digits, ranging from rudimentary nubbins to fully formed fingers or toes.
I knew someone who had this, but I haven't seen them for about 8 years

w00t for this condition

PENIS PANIC
Koro is one of a number of names for a hysterical condition known medically as Genital Retraction Syndrome, whose victims become convinced that their genitals are disappearing into their bodies. It can be contagious, sparking off "penis panics", such as the one that overtook Singapore in 1967 in which thousands of men became convinced that their penises were being stolen; it was contained by a complete media blackout on the condition. Often blamed on witchcraft, Koro typically strikes in less developed parts of the world, including Africa and Asia, where belief in sorcery remains strong. It's thought to be an extreme overreaction to normal genital shrinking from cold or other causes. Koro can be treated with medical reassurance and anti-anxiety medications.

Man, if your penis is so small that you actually worry about it going back into your body, then I am very sorry for you. So much to miss out on!
 
You'd be surprised how many people are born with webbed fingers and toes (flaps of skin between each digit). I'm sure some people on this forum would have something like it, its quite common, my old form tutor had webbed toes i believe. Looks quite odd.

can't you get surgery to seperate your fingers normally?
You could but its not too much of a disability really, it just looks odd, which would be the only reason for surgery i guess. The thing is you must think that these flaps of skin aren't just thin sheets that join the fingers, they are actual fleshy tissue that has feeling in them. Everyone has a tiny little bit of skin linking the fingers near the knuckles. So imagine that being cut away, and how uncomfortable it would be to live with. Its the same.

And besides...makes you a faster swimmer :)
 
For that matter, I've read that some martial artists train themselves to pull in their genitals, so that they're less vulnerable to attack. That must be a valuable skill.

However, luckily for Raeven0, he has no need to practice that skill.

Er, because my lightning-quick reflexes make genital self-protection obsolete! Not because I have nothing down there to defend. Really!

My penis getting squished turns me on.

Now my balls getting squished, on the other hand huts. Hence why I removed them.

Plus alls they do is get girls pregnant...I don't like using the coathanger trick....much.
 
It's been a disadvantage to me being well hung and not using it to pleasure women.
When i went paintballing i got hit there...........twice.

I did that the other day whilst pleasuring myself.
I was like "WTF Where have my balls gone, I was looked everywhere for em, and found them just behind my pelvis bone, I was like wtf how did they get there, Ive mastered the skill and can do it all the time, so my sac appears empty.

was terrifying first time though.

GET OUT OF MY UNIVERSE.


Ach, a killer case of too much information right here. RIGHT THERE. No sleep combined with reading forums about genital retractions is enough to make a man vomit with terror and weep with rage. YEssir it's a fine day for fickings when you can suck your manbits inside your body like some kind of frog or something, man alive if I could fit my testicles inside my body you better believe i'd have to make room by coughing up my liver yessir. BIG FULL BODIED. WOO, I' miss posting in these forums. Hey what ever happened to the mods and that whole "No sexually oriented threads" thing. It's been like months since they've actually closed one of those... what's the deal? Did I miss a policy-shift?

WOO go halflife2.net WOO
 
Dude thats the thing, its a bit cold, you forgot to close the window, you rest your hand on em, and all of a sudden there gone!

Its really easy and painless, just push in the right spot.

I have a small ball bearing inside the soft fleshy lobe of my left...

Ive had those before,It comes from either a zit on your earlobe that you can feel from both sides of your ear lobe,or its from piercing your ear and then letting it heal up
