AT LAST we know where the penis is represented in the male brain.
The genitalia's location on the "homunculus", the brain's map of body parts, has been in dispute since the 1920s. Now Christian Kell at the University of Frankfurt in Germany has put eight men into an MRI scanner to help settle the question. Using a soft brush, Kell stroked parts of each volunteer's body while recording brain activity.
Each man's penis was represented in the same place - flanked by the areas for the toes and abdomen - Kell told the Organisation of Human Brain Mapping annual meeting in Toronto. "The only depressing thing," he says, "is that the representation is very small."
LOL!
How've you been?
Oh that is precious, thank you.

Who needs brains....
OMG!! You rascal you.
ROTFL
For many of us, the penis IS the male brain.

Can you believe - after an exhaustive search, they finally found the penis between the toes and the abdomen.
They should have asked me - I knew were it was all the time.
I was at the opera, it stunk - came here to learn about the big brain and the little brain.

There's a connection between the penis and the brain? I had no idea. ;-)
LOL, Headache Generator, now that makes sense.
"It took a loooong time to build its reputation, but the University of Frankfurt is now regarded as the world's expert on weenies."
No, that's still the Sorbonne, if only on the basis of its output alone--they may not know what it is they do, but they do know how to do it.
The University of Frankfurt just happens to have moved up a notch.
