RIO DE JANEIRO (Reuters) - Brazil's far-right President Jair Bolsonaro on Thursday expressed horror over the 1,000 penis amputations that occur each year in the country including those due to a lack of basic hygiene, a figure he called "ridiculous and sad."

 

Speaking with reporters in Brasilia after visiting the Education Ministry, the former army captain despaired at the number and said his government must work with vulnerable men to make them more aware of the dangers of unhygienic behavior.

 

"In Brazil, we have 1,000 penis amputations a year due to a lack of water and soap," he said. "We have to find a way to get out of the bottom of this hole."

 

Bolsonaro did not specify the source of the number. A spokeswoman for the Brazilian urology society said the figure is based on official data for penis amputations.

 

The society said the amputations were necessitated by untreatable infections along with cancers and complications from HIV.

Hmmmm, plenty of countries around the world with these types of problems and guys aren't chopping off their tools.  I thought it had more to do with some Brazilian guys voluntarily doing this so they can become a "real" woman.

Seems more likely they injected some nasty oils in it to make it look bigger then it went wrong and got infected so it needs to be amputated.

Doesn't only happen in Brazil.

Pretty sad when one loses one's member for lack of soap. Maybe this guy should consider a soap distribution plan of some sort. How much could that cost the nation?
