If you could re-design the penis, what changes would you make?

Absolutely agree with reliability over time. It might also be a nice touch if it grew in both length and girth over time. Wouldn't it be fun if the equipment improved over age to match the increased knowledge of its usage that comes with experience? Play nice.

I would eliminate the refractory period, and the depleted feeling, the depression, the feeling of lack of interest in sex after ejaculating. of course, that might mean many of us males would spend the majority of our time having sex. BUT--wouldn't that make for a better world--more loving and feeling good and sharing...less fighting and hurting others?? Hmmmm...I would not change the anatomy at all--frankly, my penis gives me such pleasure as is, and i think it does for most men, i would not change anything--but, I might want to interview some women to ask for suggestions...

I see in your profile you are married.

You sound like you have sort of a close relationship with your wife but does she know you are "Looking for Friendship, A Mentor/Teacher, Someone To Play With, Events"

Does she have you on a short or long leash? 😁 😁 😁

I would eliminate the refractory period,. . . .

I think the refractory period is a good idea.

It's a form of insurance where I know at sometime during the day I'll be able to leave the house.

Stop it taking control over every other system in the body and making it no1 on the runway.

If men did not have the refractory period our lives would be in shambles, it's our best tool to help think clearly. Always have an orgasm before making an important decision. The Japanese even have a word for the phenomenon.

Kenjataimu- period after orgasm when a man is free from sexual desire and can think clearly.

I would think that people can think more clearly and come up with more innovative ideas and decisions is when they are full of energy and as far as I know, sexual energy is one of the best there is ...

Maybe so if you need to run a race, but try doing a cost benefit analysis of a long-term investment when you have a clear view of a lovely bust or bottom. Distractions do still apply.

I'd like to redesign the penis AND the vagina. The male would have an internal pouch. This would collect ejaculated sperm. The female would have something like a catheter within her vagina. The orgasm itself would be more complex. The male would penetrate the female, and the female would have control over her "vaginal catheter". As she was being penetrated, she would maneuver it to penetrate the penis as it enters her. A preliminary orgasm would occur for both. At that point the male would ejaculate into the pouch and the female would begin sucking the sperm up through the catheter. The grand finale for both would occur when the pouch was empty.

That the foreskin would grow in conjunction with the penis during a boy's transition into a teen then adult. Masturbation for me in my teens and early 20's was painful because my foreskin had not stretched out - it almost felt as though my foreskin was stuck at the size of when I was a young boy.

That would be good. I had to stretch mine. Getting rid of that restrictive frenulum would also be on my list. The first time mine tore the ends healed back together with a piece of scar tissue that effective shortened it so it was even worse. The next several times it tore I put some tp on the wound to keep the ends from reattaching. That worked well and it got longer each time. Eventually it was gone, just like it was never there. My foreskin can be pulled back tight with the tip residing at the bottom of the shaft and the inner foreskin stretched out covering the whole shaft. With a fully exposed stretch sensitive inner foreskin and bare glans, sex and masturbation gives maximum pleasure. Why wasn't it built that way to begin with? But why do girls have to have a hymen that's also painful to break?

You are aware that the frenulum isn't actually designed to be torn. Aren't you?

As a circumcised, soon after birth, man, I am happy with what I am.

The only change to myself would be a larger, harder and darker coloured glans or penis head. I like the contrast of a darker glans compared to the penis shaft, so mine gets coloured frequently with purple felt tip pens, “Magenta” desktop printer ink or purple paint.

Add a bigger brain!

The penis design supposedly evolved over time. Maybe there is a reason it is “designed” as it is. Roughly quoting an article by Research psychobabelist Jesse Bering (so take it or leave it!!!!!)

The shape of the penis--particularly the umbrella-like 'lip' under the tumescent glans head (the coronal ridge) was sculpted by natural selection to retract the semen of any other males who may have had sex with that woman within the previous 48 hours, since this is the approximate length of time that sperm remain viable.

Maybe a new feature would be for the penis to detect who had been screwing my wife and become a weapon that could shoot the bastard!!! 😈

Ripley could add this one to his "Believe it or Not Files!!

Put a woman in charge of it.

Oh I forgot, I am.

Robin Williams did a great skit on the “committee “ that designed the male and female sex organs.

Real simple solution. I would make ever into hermaphrodites. No man or woman, every single person born would be born with a fully functioning male set and female set. All persons would grow female breasts and have a bone structure capable of birthing life. Nobody will have an adams apple. I hate mine, and have hated mine ever since I got it. And, as an added bonus, there would be more people in touch with their emotions, more love and peace, etc.

Imagine if our fannies had the same power of deduction.

The only problem I see with your theory is men growing a set of breasts. All you would do is sit around playing with them and by the age of 20 they would be completely worn out.

Not to mention constantly trying to put our penis in our vagina!

To Tillie and Gwhap, I see your points, but I dont think they are 100% applicable. My thoughts of a world where everyone is a fully-functional hermaphrodite is that it would eliminate more problems that it creates. No misogyny since everyone is half-woman, no gay bashing since its essentially impossible to be gay, per se. There would be some religion issues, but women wouldn’t be secondhand citizens, seeing as how every single person is half female. The two contrasting halves of each person would balance each person’s psyche, the playing with the boobs would be like how a girl would growing up when she gets her breasts growing. As for sticking your penis in your vagina, many would try it, but I suspect it would not feasible due to the scrotum hanging down and the distance between the penis and vulva being too short.

Utopian societies still would not exist. What about race, should everybody be half-white and half-black, or hair or eye color? People are always going to find a way to marginalize or mistreat other people. Most marriages would probably still have a primary homemaker and a predominate breadwinner or some equivalent type of arrangement. IMHO, making everyone half male half female wouldn't change much if anything.

I thought you were joking in your previous post - that's why I (and probably @Tillie ) came back with jovial responses.

I would have the penis sticking out from men's foreheads... obviously vaginas would be at a matching location on women's foreheads. That way, we could mate by bobbing our heads together; hip thrusting is so...inefficient. Would make courting much more efficient too. A couple need only bump heads together on the first date to determine genital compatibility, before deciding to continue. And she would know when he is happy to see her, instead of trying to figure out from the bulge in his trousers 😃.

Redesign? Do whatever is necessary to move the darn prostate to where it can be easily accessible and removeable! Where it is now makes diagnosing, monitoring/biopsying cancer painful and difficult. 😡

Every penis is different so how could we make one penis. Some are small, some are big, some are skinny, some are fat, some are straight, some are curved. So many different variations of them.

Once a female understands the “brain“ (or lack thereof!) with which a usual male penis operates, she can exercise a great deal of control over it!

Thanks @Tillie and @Moppys_jalopy! It is great to live with that sense of being a liberated woman!

Should have endless supply of cum so you could keep cumming, not going soft, as long your partner kept pumping you. Exhausting orgasm.

I like mine the way it is. Have had no complaints. Fascinating topic, but you’ve got to accept what you got and make the most of it.

This is what I understand about penis design. Ever wonder why cocks have mushroom helmets and not just a straight shaft? Women are multi-orgasmic, men are not. The more men who cum in a woman the greater her chances to become pregnant. That's what nature wants and why sex feels sooooo good. After the first load is deposited the next guy has his turn. As his cock is plunging into that pool of semen by design some of it gets lodged behind the head and on the up stroke pulls some out. The longer he fucks, the more of the other guys cum he pulls/pumps out. Thus, giving his sperm a better chance for conception. Same for the next guy, then the next, etc.
