Man Born Without Penis Has Sex for First Time Using Bionic Organ

Doctors build male member that’s half artificial, half living tissue.

Born with an extremely rare birth defect that left him without a functional penis, 45-year-old UK resident Andrew Wardle can now have sexual intercourse thanks to a breakthrough in regenerative medicine.

During a 10-hour surgery, 45 doctors constructed and attached a penis made from both an artificial component as well as skin taken from Wardle’s arm. The cost of the procedure is estimated to be more than $90,000.

Sexual pleasure for the first time

Speaking to news.com.au, Wardle said his new penis finally allowed him to consummate his relationship with his girlfriend, Fedra Fabian.

However, in order to gain the semblance of an erection, Wardle must first activate a saline pump via a switch located in his scrotum.

Feeling some pressure after being unable to perform for so long, he expressed pleasure in the eventual act:

I had to test out the function every morning and night and leave it erect for 20 minutes. So one morning, two days before we went away, it just happened. It was nice and natural — and that’s how I wanted it to be.

A growing club of patients

Wardle has joined a growing list of patients who have undergone successful surgeries to enable or restore sexual function.

Back in 2016, we reported on Mohammed Abad, who received a similar penile implant device after losing his own genitals in a car accident.

We also covered Thomas Manning, who had lost his sex organ due to cancer. In the case of Manning, however, he was given a wholly biological transplant rather than one with artificial components. Regardless, the procedure was groundbreaking; the first of its kind performed in the United States.

Options for healing and identity

What these and similar operations offer is hope to those who have suffered accidents or have birth abnormalities. Medical options now exist that may help them gain at least some level of sexual functioning that they long for.

Components of these surgeries have also been used in phalloplasties for sex reassignment therapy. Research could become more reciprocal, with the knowledge gained during the construction of bionic male sex organs to surgeries for trans persons.

There is also the real possibility that transplantation, either from donors or cloned organs, will significantly improve in the decades ahead. This would then eliminate the need for any artificial components. Unless, of course, when they might be desired by a patient.

What’s most important about all this is that as techniques improve it will allow so many more people to explore and express their sexualities and reach a higher level of human fulfillment.

M.Christian (they/them) loves nothing better than exploring the intersections of sex and technology—and speculating on the future of both. A highly regarded erotica writer they have six novels,12 collections, 100+ short stories, and 25 anthologies as an editor to their name. Their non-fiction regularly appears in many sites, but they're most proud of being a regular contributor to Future of Sex.

Of their erotic fiction, Tristan Taormino said that “M.Christian is a literary stylist of the highest caliber: smart, funny, frightening, sexy—there's nothing [they] can't write about… and brilliantly.”

Reflecting their unique ability to sympathetically and convincingly write for a range of genders and sexual orientations, their stories have appeared in multiple editions of Best American Erotica, Best Gay Erotica, Best Lesbian Erotica, The Mammoth Books of Erotica, and others. Their collection of gay erotic fiction, Dirty Words, was a finalist for the Lambda Literary Award.

While a majority of their stories have been collected into books like Dirty Words, their fondness for combining sex and science fiction is clearly evident in collections that include Rude Mechanicals, Technorotica, Better Than The Real Thing, Skin Effect Effect, Bachelor Machine, and Hard Drive: The Best Sci-Fi Erotica of M.Christian.

As a novelist, M.Christian’s versatility is on full display with Running Dry, The Very Bloody Marys, Brushes, Painted Doll; and the somewhat controversial queer BDSM/horror/thrillers Finger's Breadth, and Me2.

M.Christian has worked on the industry’s production side as an Associate Publisher for Renaissance E Books and as a Publisher for Digital Parchment Services. The latter dedicated to celebrating the works of science-fiction legends such as William Rotsler, Jerome Bixby, Jody Scott, Arthur Byron Cover, Ernest Hogan, and James Van Hise.

Covering topics like BDSM safety, sexual education, senior sexuality concerns, queer and gender issues, plus reviewing a variety of sex tech products, M.Christian’s non-fiction has appeared on sites like Kinkly, Tickle.Life, Sexpert, Queer Majority, Sex for Every Body, and—of course—their ongoing work for Future of Sex.

If there’s anything M.Christian enjoys more than writing, it’s teaching. A featured presenter, sometimes with their friend Ralph Greco Jr, at national sex and BDSM events, they have lectured on kink play (with an emphasis on safety), polyamory, boosting sexual creativity, and erotica writing--for beginners or those wanting to go pro.

M.Christian is a cohost on two popular sex-education podcasts: Love’s Outer Limits with Dr. Amy Marsh and Licking Non-Vanilla with Ralph Greco, Jr.
