This raises the age-old question: Would you rather live with cancer or without a penis? Tough one....
Now, here's a story about a guy who actually volunteered for the procedure (Yikes!).

Filipino Genius Cuts Off Penis To End Jibes
A man in the Filipino city of Cagayan de Oro City has surely earned himself an honourable mention in the 2011 Darwin Awards. While his actions did not lead to his death, not yet at least, he has certainly minimised his chances of successfully breeding with a willing female such that he could be safely considered removed from the human gene pool. Our bright spark, from the city of Cagayan de Oro City had put up with jibes over the size of his manhood for most of his life. Nothing new there certainly, as anyone who has enjoyed the friendship of other men would attest. But it was this genius’s remedy for the teasing that just takes the cake, the euphemistic equivalent of which he will find in scarce supply soon by the way. So fed up was he by the jibes that he decided the best way out was to take a bolo knife (a local type of machete) and remove the entire organ. One can just see this kind of “logic” at work. Penis too small leads to jokes about penis, therefore no penis will mean no jokes about penis, Ahh! Lightbulb moment! Presumably followed shortly by an excruciating scream, and at least an iota of common sense. The man was taken to hospital soon after his moment of genius and has been declared out danger. Doctors have warned though that they will not be able to restore what little manhood he had possessed before. A local shrink, Myrna Villanueva, has warned that the man will need to be monitored once he comes to fully realise what he has done. "Something is [now] missing, and the very important part that is missing speaks of masculinity, power and strength of a man... It's not normal”. No sh*t, is all we have to say here at Newstime.
