I do want one, but I stumbled across bottom surgery pictures and wooo that was intense. Also recovery is awful from what I've heard. There's also two main options: somewhat normal looking dick but they have to take a skin graft from your arm so you have a permanent scar on there, plus it can't get erect naturally (phalloplasty). Then there's teeny tiny micropenis that can get erect but it's too small to go in anything most of the time (metaoidplasty).
Grow your own would be the ideal...there's this one episode of South Park which sucks cuz it makes fun of trans women but there's a whole thing where they figure out how to grow penises on rats and transplant it to humans. That would be so cool.
South Park has its moments. Big Gay Al's pet store I remember being oddly wholesome, but it's been nearly a decade since I saw it so idk if it would hold up.
Big gay Al was a good episode. I wish they'd make a good trans episode for once. Their "oops, maybe we were wrong about trans people" episode was super mid.
