Science has revealed the “perfect” penis & it’s aiding trans men’s bottom surgeries

-

A new study published by researchers at the University of California Riverside has revealed the ideal phalloplasty results for transmasculine individuals. These results were based on participant input in clinical studies about the physical features that make penises most desirable.

In aggregate, the review showed that participants favored penises with a longer shaft, a moderate-sized head, and a rounded ridge as the most preferable features. Additionally, participants preferred that penis width stay the same size rather than becoming gradually thicker or slimmer.

In terms of length, researchers found that previous research determined that 6.3 inches was a desirable length on average. The average male penis size is around 5.5 inches.

Additionally, medical professionals discovered different preferences from the average population in the study, suggesting that differences in medical training substantially impact the results.

“The ideal phallic esthetic varies by individual, and there were statistically significant preferences across age… and sexual orientation,” wrote lead author Dr. Justin Cordero, along with other collaborators on the study. “This study can serve as a guide on phalloplasties for patients and gender-affirming surgeons.”

The study, published in the journal Urology, asked participants to respond to computer-generated images of different penis sizes and shapes to determine which is deemed to be the most desirable. While it primarily sampled cisgender individuals, it also included a sizable sample of transgender individuals, including transgender men as well.

This study is especially important since it can help provide lifesaving care to transmasculine individuals, especially to help tailor their phalloplasties to individual wants and needs. Many people don’t describe how they want their phalloplasty results to look in detail down to the exact angle of the head, so these results help surgeons better understand preferences so they can help their patients decide what they want, even if they’re unsure.

The study conducted surveys on Reddit users, Amazon Mechanical Turk, and Craigslist. The majority of participants were straight, but a substantial portion were LGBTQ+. Researchers used regression analysis to determine the general trends in the total study population of over 1,000 participants.

Prosecutors decline to charge suspect identified in alleged anti-trans mass shooting

Prosecutors in Chicago have failed to charge a suspect identified in photo lineups as the shooter who killed a trans woman and her mother in a home invasion in January . Three other victims were wounded, including two other trans women. The suspect, who remains unidentified because he hasn’t been charged, has two other pending cases in Cook County court, records reveal: a felony residential burglary count and a misdemeanor count of domestic battery. The 19-year-old suspect lives in the same apartment complex as the victims did, on Chicago’s South Side. The police report for the mass shooting details how two people “kicked in the front door and began shooting” at about 1:40 p.m. on January 23. Unique Banks, 20, and her mother Alexsandra Olmo, 43, were killed at the scene. Three other victims were hospitalized in critical condition. One witness told investigators they had seen two males running north from the courtyard building wearing green camouflage. The shooting took place on th

The ’90s “Last Call” killer trolled NYC gay bars for victims. Then police botched the investigation.

In the early 90s, as the AIDS crisis reached a fever pitch and LGBTQ+ hate crimes rose to their highest level in decades, a serial killer preyed upon New York City’s queer community.  Based on the true-crime book by Elon Green, HBO’s docuseries Last Call chronicles the story of a string of queer murders in four parts. The series deep dives into both the heinous killings and the botched investigation thereafter. To cover a case this dynamic, the filmmakers behind the series spoke to a wide swath of subjects. The episodes are stacked with interviews from LGBTQ+ activists, NYPD officials, victims’ families, and club owners, all amist the backdrop of early 90s Manhattan archival footage.  Related: Bygone no more: This ’60s film about teachers accused of lesbianism could easily take place today The “groomer” narrative is nothing new.

Conservatives were already upset about Target over its LGBTQ+-inclusive Pride collection. But now they’re angry over fake AI-generated images that show the store selling “Satanic” clothing. The images show kids wearing clothes with inverted pentagrams and goat heads and a store display with a red, goat-headed mannequin. The images were created by Facebook user Dan Reese with the AI program Midjourney, Reuters reported . A Target spokesperson told the publication that it “has never sold” the pictured items, and the items aren’t available on the store’s website.
