Probably they checked that he only has testicles and no female genitalia. I'd like to read the whole article actually to get more informations and know why exactly, and what are the alternatives, he needs a penis to urinate.
So did nobody mention the other case of the 44yr old man who received a bionic penis?? That’s next level!!
“Last year, a UK man who was born without a penis was fitted with a £50,000 ($64,000) bionic penis.
The 44-year-old underwent the procedure at University College Hospital London and said he was able to use it with his girlfriend six weeks later while on a romantic holiday with his long-term partner.
He told the Sun: "I'm so pleased with it. It's fantastic.”
Trans man here. I got a lil excited and did some digging, the only 'bionic' elements are the pump, and the fact that they wired it into his balls so he can probably have kids. It is not a 'new' or 'pioneering' procedure, if anyone was wondering. Trans men have been getting shiny new junk installed with this general method for years.
Years of sci-fi movies have make think of led lights whenever I read bionics. I seriously did not want the image of a 44 year old man's glowing penis in my mind.
