A disturbing study by Chinese cosmetic researchers is prompting outrage on social media after it was discovered that surgeons constructed “neo-phalluses” on live female dogs. The study, which was originally published in 2018, mutilated the canine’s genitals for the purposes of exploring a new method of penile construction.
Of the six authors attributed to the paper, five are from the Plastic Surgery Hospital at the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences in Beijing, while the sixth is associated with the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University in Xiamen.
The study sought to explore a method of surgically constructing a functioning penis on a female or a male who had experienced penile loss which did not require a prosthetic.
“Prosthesis-assisted penile reconstruction has been performed extensively to restore a cosmetically acceptable phallus. However, a large number of patients will undergo revision surgery for various prosthesis-related complications,” the introduction reads.
“As the number of patients with penile loss or gender dysphoria continues to increase, the demand for anatomic, functional, and esthetic penile reconstruction is rising.”
In order to investigate how to best craft erectile tissue on a female body, the researchers utilized 10 human cadavers, 4 of which were male, and 6 of which were female. The average age of the deceased was 58 years old.
After attempting their medical strategies using the tissue and muscle of the human cadavers, the researchers moved on to apply their techniques on 11 living mixed-breed female dogs.
Following the surgery, the dogs were fit with a “large-sized Elizabethan collar to prevent the animal from biting and licking the surgical site,” with researchers noting that the canines began self-biting after being fitted with the surgically-constructed penis.
While one of the dogs died immediately after the surgery, all of the animals were euthanized after being assessed for 7 months, with their “neo-phalli” then being harvested for further examination.
A link to the study, which was published in a journal affiliated with the International Society for Sexual Medicine, first began circulating on social media yesterday, prompting unease from those concerned with women’s rights and the safety of animals.
One user, Diana Alastair, tagged People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), demanding a response on the horrific animal experimentation.
“You protest against milking cows, how about protesting against something truly horrible?”
“They experimented on female dogs in the name in gender ideology and trans ‘health care.’ They butchered them and sewed on fake penises. Another horror in the miles long ever expanding list of horrors to come out of this madness,” women’s rights advocate Aja commented, sharing some of the disturbing photos from the paper.
This is not the first time gender-bending research out of China has stirred international backlash, with the last incident occurring in 2021 over a study that saw male rats be impregnated.
Scientists from the Naval Medical University in Shanghai published a paper revealing they had implanted a uterus in a male rat, and then conjoined it to a female rat in order for the two to share a circulatory system. The male rat was then implanted with an embryo, and lived surgically attached to the female rat for 21 days.
At the time, PETA’s Senior Science Policy Advisor, Emily McIvor, called the study “frankenscience” and “vile,” condemning it for its obvious cruelty.
