'Myths' That Are Totally True...
5. You Can Break Your Penis
True
This was one that made the guys squirm when it did the rounds in school, but then you grow up a bit and realise that, surely you can't break your penis? There's no bone in it for a start.
Well, unfortunately, you can. Whilst it's true that humans don't have a penis bone (we lost that one some time ago), it is still possibly to do some serious damage to an erect penis - you might even hear an audible "snap".
The corpus cavernosa are two spongy tubes that fill with blood when their owner gets excited, becoming highly pressurised and keeping the penis erect. If the penis is bent forcefully due to either accidental over-enthusiasm, or on purpose, it can rupture the rigid corpus cavernosa just like a bone.
Fixing the break will probably require surgery, so maybe just go careful in the sack?
