A unanimous jury ruled in favor of the Kentucky doctor who amputated a portion of Phillip Seaton's penis during an October 2007 circumcision to treat inflammation....

Seaton's lawyer, Kevin George, told jurors this week that Seaton "doesn't feel like a man" without his penis, The Associated Press reported.

But Robinson said the surgeon felt he had no other options but to remove the penis immediately.

The tip of Seaton's penis "had the appearance of rotten cauliflower" because it was so inundated with cancer, Robinson told the courtroom on Monday. The defense attorney also told the jury that Patterson only removed about an inch of the penis during the initial surgery before another surgeon removed the rest of his penis at a later date.

Er, how can you not know that your own member "has the appearance of rotten cauliflower"?! :wtf:

1. Wow. He might still have his penis if he had sought care sooner

Something definitely amiss with a guy who doesn't keep an eye on his dick.

2. Maybe he didn't understand the consent form?

Or possibly the conversation with the doctor went over his head. Too bad he wasted his money in court.

4. People tend to hear what they want to hear when a doctor is speaking.

3. The tip of Seaton's penis "had the appearance of rotten cauliflower". . . .

That is usually the tipping point.

6. If he "doesn't feel like a man", does he feel "like a woman'?

Some gals in my office want to date him, so they are asking.
