Scientists create artificial Johnson for rabbits

I found this study utterly fascinating.  It has a potentially big implication for men with severe erectile dysfunction. Women are vain about their looks, and men are vain about their kickstand, trouser snake, heat seeking moisture missile. 

The study was led by Dr. Anthony Atala, director of the Institute for Regenerative Medicine at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, N.C. Rabbits with badly damaged wee-wees were given grafts of "specially" engineered winkie tissue. In time, the new cell tissue got busy and created a new one-eyed monster. Now here's my favorite part of the study:

"The researchers found that the new penises were similar in structure to natural rabbit penises. The "artificial penis" also achieved and maintained erectile pressures equal to those of normal rabbit penises.

Next came the real test, as the rabbits that had received the new penises were presented with sexually mature females. Things proceeded just as nature intended, the researchers said."

Yeah ba-by! As Austin Powers would so proudly say of these newly mojo'd rabbits.
