She'll grow whatever her little wolverine heart desires!

[–] Stern@lemmy.world 5 points 1 hour ago

Wolverine has lost a hand before in Age of Apocalypse and it did not grow back. However he has regrown eyes before along with regenerating after firebombing charred him to a cinder so we can likely assume his cock and balls would also grow back.

I'd like to see a surgeon attempt any kind of surgery on Wolverine. As soon as he is cut he immediately starts healing.

Wolverine's healing factor only takes a few minutes to go from bare bones to nerves, blood vessels, muscles and skin.

Damn, when does it get so buffed? Reading 80s comics and his healing factor is "can sleep off a knife wound in a couple days" strong, not "regrows muscle in the middle of a fight"

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

I think you're misremembering. In 1978 the X-Men went to the Savage Land and a dinosaur seriously chomped his arm. He basically shrugged it off saying he "heals real fast"

Wolverine's Healing in 1978

His healing has been dialed up and down over the decades, but unless it's disabled (and he starts getting heavy metal poisoning), he heals from serious cuts in minutes at the most.

I think the gloves must've helped with the dino chomp, as well as his general macho attitude

I'm at around 1990 nowadays and although he says he is fine, other characters (who well know his powers) keep commenting on how rough a shape he is in and how he seems to be dying from the injuries he takes from nonstop adventuring

To me it seems like his healing factor can do a sprint to close a wound so he can finish a fight, but it can't do the marathon of keeping him alive from constant injuries, unless given time to regenerate itself. And the regrowing flesh thing to me looks like the effort of running a marathon in the span of a sprint

Referring to Iron Man: Extremis #3 it's safe to assume that without hijacking said repair center Wolverine would regrow a penis almost instantly

[–] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

So in theory you could somehow edit the repair center to grow a vagina instead, then the dick would fall right off

[–] 100_kg_90_de_belin@feddit.it 5 points 1 hour ago

Matter-of-factly, Ultron hacks into Extremis in a later run and turns Tony Stark into a Jane Van Dyne lookalike.

At the end of the ordeal Tony Stark checks to see if he still has a penis.

Maybe it depends on their hormone levels 🤔

Right amount of HRT: Vagina. No HRT: Penis.

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 11 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

The healing factor would attack the foreign hormones. Wolverine can't get drunk either because his body heals too quickly.

[–] Cethin@lemmy.zip 1 points 23 minutes ago

All people contain both estrogen and testosterone. They just have them in different quantities. How would his body know that they're not natural?

[–] GreenShimada@lemmy.world 12 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

Those are different things, though. Hormones would be closer to vitamins, the body uses them if they're present without necessarily causing harm to the body. The body produced hormones, but, chemically, if the hormones are made or introduced, chemically, they're the same. Ethanol is a poison that works by affecting the brain by attaching to GABA receptors, so it is a threat to the body.

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 hours ago (2 children)

That's all science though. Wolverine's healing ability is basically magic. I mean, it regrows his hair to a certain length in a certain style too.

The backstory for his character is that his healing factor not only "heals" him, but basically restores him to the way he previously was whenever there's a change to his body.

[–] Flagstaff@programming.dev 1 points 7 minutes ago

it regrows his hair to a certain length in a certain style too.

lol I totally didn't think about that, hmm...

[–] GreenShimada@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

I mean, yeah, that's magic I guess. So if Wolverine got Scarlet Witch to give him HRT, he'd have titties in a jiffy.

[–] manuallybreathing@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 hours ago

Hormones are also processes by the liver for what its worth, specifically estradiol

it's a fictional godlike character, what happens is what best suits the story

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

depends if he still has adamantium skeleton, since adamantium is what slows his healing factor. he would probably regenerate his penis, balls instantly. his healing factor apparently isnt the most advanced. i think deadpool and another mutant has a more powerful one(at least in last stand, he fought a mutant that instantly regenerate his limbs in 1 second, which wolverine cant do. as he cant heal from brain damage apparently.

I have a can of peanut brittle to share with you

The dick thing (there's a reason "he" is angry), also lots of super heros are thwarted trans people. It's why they're always meeting their "girl" versions, life is trying to tell them something.

"This bright lycra outfit makes me feel like I'm flying! But I also have rage issues."

"Oh wow, a girl version of me, I'll have to try extra hard not to have any realizations about who I am".
