It just occurred to me: Could real penis enlargement be the key technology for world peace? I bet you could use stem cells and whatnot if you would really put your mind to it. Should governments throw some money at research on this? The UN? Thoughts?

WN move to SMP if you think it doesn't fit here!

please, no jokes.

I think you should articulate how you get from A to Z. It isn't entirely obvious what your thesis is.

Wow already two replies while I was still assembling the poll!

...as always with me, half joke, half philosophy!

I actually thought it was! But that doesn't really matter here. Let's assume there's a, say, 30% chance it works; for whatever reason. Would that be worth a Manhattan-Project like effort?

I think I need more information about the types and amounts of intoxicants you took prior to making this thread, before I can decide whether or not it's a good idea (I mean the penis enlargement idea, not the idea to start this thread)

I'm torn. If the end goal is to just proportionally increase donger size across the board then what is the point? Nothing will change except some women will be happier, and some wont. If the goal is to give all the dudes 11 inches across the board then you might be on to something. At the very least, sales of big body trucks will plummet, and thats probably as close to world peace as we will ever actually get.

Penis enlargement to fight global warming? I like it!

Morph,

We've got 15 different types of boner pill but no cure for cancer. If they could figure out penis enlargement they'd be selling it already. I bet a fortune has already gone into research on the topic.

Tom,

you're not wrong, but don't forget that new technologies emerge all the time. They have just started to experiment on growing livers from stem cells, and if you can master that, growing something simple like dick should be easy.

That being said, you reminded me of my first thought when I learned of the invention of Viagra. I thought (and this is no joke) that this should help all those endangered species that are used for boner voodoo; since Viagra actually works why would people still use overpriced powdered Elephant dick or w/e?

Years later I find out they still use the voodoo, just together with Viagra, and are now more convinced than ever the stuff works.

So I might be overly optimistic here.

Ridiculous

Just make everything else smaller. World peace and climate change sorted

Won’t work. It’s not just about having a big dick, it’s about having a bigger dick than everyone else.

I'm against this this, don't want to lose my feeling of superiority over most people.

It could also hurt some women. Why is the OP calling for a penis war against women?

That is a very good question.

That is even more silly than the OP. Good Job.

For everyone’s information the primates, which include H*omo Sapiens, have evolved sexual organs in a cooperative way through sexual selection pressures and predilections which only until very recently also involved higher-order social/hierarchical (or tribal)/set legal influences (say the last 7,000 years or so when many human groups/tribes began substance agricultural and a more settle life)

No need to move to SMP. For the record SMP has already discussed all sexual evolution issues, the best one, which dovetails to the above in a fun way, about the corkscrew vigina - And also other interesting sexually evolved features of animals.

The below linked article is an excellent read and illustrates the above and additional fun facts about sexual evolution in animals and actually dovetails nicely to the penis question in the OP. And Humans are Animals. Many seem to forget that basic fact. Enjoy:

Zeno why are you calling for a duck penis war against women?

Wars are good - they always establish some form of progress.

That is an interesting article and all, but the OP clearly is about sexual engineering. Though I'm open to discuss if corkscrewification of vaginas should be funded.

And no one is declaring penis wars here, don't be silly people.

When I get that feelin'
Oooooh
I need sexual engineerin'

Probably simpler just to discover the clitoris.

clitoris enlargement and world peace

NOW we are getting somewhere

Except, eventually clitorii get so big that gender paradigms do a 180 and men start getting shtuk

@ Morph

Since you mentioned SMP, I wanted to segue from penis enlargement to corkscrew vaginas as this was discussed in SMP. My post was a simple way to accomplish that agenda, if a bit off topic. Anyway, it should be noted that evolution is natural engineering. But now Humans have advanced technologically to the point of soon being able to control and direct their own evolution. We will soon be in the Utopian age of large penises, mega clits, super boobs, and eternal orgasms. Also on the horizon is sex with AI robots. All can engage in their personal sexual predilections. Rent a Sex Robot(s) (genders A to Z) – if you can’t afford one governments will subsidize the expense.

But we will still need Beer or something similar - My prediction.

Glad we are finally getting to important and serious stuff in P&S.

Zeno, you're my favorite futurologist now!
