A US man who has staked the uncontested claim of having the smallest penis in the world says he has booked a procedure to enhance his member at least somewhat after soliciting the online public’s financial support for that purpose.

In a brief interview on Saturday, 38-year-old Michael Phillips described himself as “really thankful and surprised” over the GoFundMe platform users who supported his campaign for help to pay for the procedure in question.

“I … never thought anyone would care enough to help,” said Phillips, who has previously explained that the procedure should relieve him of urinary issues resulting from his being only 0.38in (0.97cm) long even when wholly tumescent. “[I am] extremely grateful.”

Coming out to say you have the world's smallest penis to raise awareness and body acceptance for men with small penises is actually kinda big dick energy.

    I was tempted to post this in 'Uplifting News' as a joke.

    But I think it belongs here.

    It’s not okay, no matter the context. Not saying anyone should be making fun of his disability. I know it causes him many other health issues and I’m glad he’ll get help with those but unsolicited dick pics are not okay regardless.

    Public mockery is solicitation.

    Now, usually I heavily agree with the feminist POV. This world was built to keep men empowered over women, no denying that.

    However, I'm gonna have to side with the above. Public mockery of the fella is getting as involved as it's possible to get.

    One can't attempt to gain social standing at his expense then claim offense when he fights back in the only way he can.

    *sent, past-tense. Yeah it was fucked up but he did it to people that were making fun of him and his condition and he's since acknowledged that it was gross and wrong to do what he did. It's ok to not forgive the dude but misrepresenting the situation to get others on your side is kinda lame.

    A brave man and a necessary conversation about the casual shaming of people's genitalia.

    Enhancement to make it even smaller? That would be funny :D
