When it says the muscles were "farmed", what does that mean?

To make the patient an artificial penis, the material to make that artificial penis has to come from somewhere. In this case the material was taken from the arm.

Seems to be that there was some doctors involved? What doctor would agree to do that???????

Presumably a board-certified plastic surgeon who has the trust and consent of the patient.

Though in fairness to Ax, I’ve been hung like a horse since puberty and have only needed immunosuppressants since transplant.

Out of respect for Jon and KB’s privacy, I shall refrain from commenting on their medications unless they ask me to.
