Epidemiologie und Ätiologie [Bearbeiten]

Zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts war in Europa die Injektion von Paraffinen oder auch Mineralölen unter die Haut des Penis eine verbreitete Praktik zur Penisvergrößerung.^[3]Nebenwirkungen allmählich bekannt wurden, verschwand diese Technik in Westeuropa weitgehend.^[4] In vielen osteuropäischen Ländern und Korea wird sie vereinzelt noch heute ausgeübt.^[5][6][7] Nachdem viele Jahre später die unerwünschten

Diese Form der Penisvergrößerung wird gegenwärtig fast ausschließlich von Nicht-Medizinern durchgeführt. In einer 1996 veröffentlichten Studie über 26 koreanische Patienten im Zeitraum von 1981 bis 1993 lag das Durchschnittsalter der Patienten bei 39,6 Jahren, wobei das Altersintervall von 19 bis 77 Jahre reichte. Als Gründe für die Behandlung gaben die Patienten im wesentlichen an: den Wunsch nach einem größeren Penis (14), erektile Dysfunktion (7), den Wunsch, den Sexualpartner befriedigen zu können (5 Patienten). Die Injektionen erfüllten nur in zwei Fällen (Befriedigung des Sexualpartners) auch die Wünsche der Betroffenen. Nach durchschnittlich 18,5 Monaten wurde bei 19 der 26 Patienten der Penis im Bereich der Injektionsstellen schmerzhaft. Die restlichen sieben Patienten waren schmerzfrei, beklagten aber eine Verfärbung der Penishaut und eine Veränderung der Penisgeometrie. Bei 17 der 19 Patienten ulzerierteneitrigen Ausflüssen. Die injizierten Paraffine oder Mineralöle blieben auf den Bereich des Penis fixiert. Eine Diffusion in andere Organe wurde nicht beobachtet.^[4] die Lipogranulome, mit gelegentlichen

In einer anderen Studie wurden 357 koreanische Männer zu dem Ergebnis der Paraffininjektion in ihren Penis befragt. 91 Prozent waren mit dem Ergebnis der Injektion nicht zufrieden, 74 Prozent würden das injizierte Material gerne wieder entfernt haben und lediglich 15,6 Prozent hatten keine Nebenwirkungen. Dagegen klagte die Mehrzahl über Entzündungen, Hautnekrosen und Schmerzen.^[8]

Von der ersten Injektion der Flüssigkeit bis zum Ausbruch des Paraffinoms vergeht in den meisten Fällen ein Zeitraum von mindestens einem Jahr;^[9] in Einzelfällen können nahezu 40 Jahre vergehen.^[10]

Pathologie [Bearbeiten]

→ siehe Hauptartikel Lipidgranulom

Die subkutane Injektion von nicht-resorbierbaren Flüssigkeiten in den Penis – aber auch generell in andere Bereiche des Körpers – kann zu einer Fremdkörperreaktion führen, die die Bildung eines Fremdkörpergranuloms zur Folge hat. Ein Fremdkörpergranulom ist ein nicht-infektiöses Granulom. Dies ist eine knotenartige Gewebeneubildung, die aus Epitheloidzellen, mononukleären Zellen oder Riesenzellen besteht, die sich um den Fremdkörper legen und diesen einkapseln.^[11] Die Lipidgranulome entstehen als Folge einer unspezifischen Immunantwort des Organismus.

Therapie [Bearbeiten]

Ein Paraffinom des Penis sollte in jedem Fall behandelt werden, da die Erkrankung in den meisten Fällen einen progredienten, das heißt sich stetig verschlechternden, Verlauf hat.

Die Methode der Wahl ist die vollständige Entfernung der Vorhaut (Zirkumzision) und die radikale Exzision („herausschneiden“) der Paraffinome.^[12][13] Werden die Paraffinome nicht vollständig entfernt, so können sie nach der Entfernung rezidivieren.^[14] In vielen Fällen ist eine Phalloplastie, das heißt eine Rekonstruktion des Penis aus körpereigenem Gewebe, notwendig.^[4][15]

Wenn der Patient einer operativen Entfernung des Paraffinoms nicht zustimmt oder aber bei weniger schwerwiegendem Verlauf, kann auch eine konservative BehandlungGlucocorticoiden, wie beispielsweise Triamcinolon, direkt in das Paraffinom.^[7][14] Auch die orale Gabe von Corticosteroiden ist eine Option. Einige Autoren empfehlen dies als Erstlinientherapie^[16] erfolgen. Sie erfolgt im wesentlichen symptomatisch, durch wiederholte Injektion von Langzeitergebnisse über diese Therapieform liegen nicht vor. und die operative Entfernung der Paraffinome nur bei einem Nicht-Ansprechen dieser Therapieform.

Speziell bei älteren Patienten mit ulzerierenden Läsionen des Penis besteht die Gefahr, dass sich aus dem chronisch entzündeten Gewebe ein Plattenepithelkarzinom entwickelt.^{[8][9][17][18]}

Medizingeschichtliches [Bearbeiten]

Robert Gersuny (1844–1924) verwendete 1899 erstmals Paraffin für eine Hodenprothese – ein folgenschwerer Fehler, wie sich erst Jahrzehnte später herausstellte.

Der österreichische Chirurg Robert Gersuny berichtete 1903 erstmals von der Verwendung von Paraffin als Hodenprothese. Bei einem Patienten, dem – als Folge einer tuberkulösen Orchitis – beide Hoden entfernt werden mussten (Orchiektomie), injizierte er 1899 Paraffin.^[19] Durch den (kurzfristigen) Erfolg seiner Rekonstruktion ermutigt, begannen Gersuny und eine Reihe von Kollegen weltweit damit, verschiedene Mineralöle und Paraffine in unterschiedliche Regionen des Körpers zu injizieren; so bspw. zur Behandlung von Deformationen des Gesichtes, Hämorrhoiden, Inkontinenz, Hernien und zur Vergrößerung des Penis.^[20][21] Der Boom endete nach etwa 20 Jahren, da inzwischen die desaströsen Spätfolgen dieser Injektionen allmählich bekannt wurden.^[22]Kollagen ersetzt.^[23] Um 1950 wurden diese Materialien zur Injektion dann endgültig aufgegeben und beispielsweise durch

Pearling (body modification)

Pearling (body modification)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

pearling

Pearling or genital beading is a form of body modification, the practice of permanently inserting small beads made of various materials beneath the skin of the genitals—of the labia, or of the shaft or foreskin of the penis. As well as being an aesthetic practice, this is usually intended to enhance the sexual pleasure of partners during vaginal or anal intercourse.

The practice seems to have been fairly common across world cultures and is still done today. In contemporary society pearling is usually done by professional body piercers, and sometimes by people who specialize in surgical body modification (who are often very publicity-shy, for fear of legal repercussions).

Contents 1 Procedures 2 Jewelry 3 History and Culture 4 References 5 External links

Procedures

There are two common procedures, one being very similar to a frenum piercing and the other being similar to inserting a subdermal implant, and requiring more medical knowledge and specialized tools. Either procedure is relatively safe with risks and healing much like a subdermal implant in any other part of the body, although, like many genital piercings, the generous blood flow to the genitals can reduce healing times considerably. Inflammation is very common, during and after healing, although careful healing can minimize this. Rejection is rare, but can occur.

Jewelry

A wide variety of inert implant materials can be used for this implant. Teflon, silicon, surgical steel or titanium are commonly used materials. Prior to the availability of modern materials, there is a long history of pearls being used in this implant, hence the name pearling. There is an alternate form of this implant, where short curved "ribs" are inserted, rather than pearls.

History and Culture

The most well known historical use of this involves the Yakuza of Japan, an organized crimebody modification, including full body irezumi tattooing and Yubitsume, the amputation of finger joints in penance to their superiors. By the Yakuza, pearling is performed in prison, with each pearl supposedly symbolizing a year spent in prison. syndicate whose members perform several notable types of

Pearling is a fairly common practice among Filipino seamen, especially among the older ones. They say they learned the practice from Japanese seamen. Most dockside prostitutes in Cape Town and Durban, South Africa consider the practice to be strange, say it hurts, and some refuse customers with pearlings.^[1]

Pearling is very common in the military and prison systems of the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, as well as among Organized crime syndicates. Modification is performed by inmates using household appliances, without anesthetics; soap is used as antiseptic. Typically, insertions are made from specially prepared round plastic pieces. In average, this modification involves 3-4 round balls 6–8 mm in diameter, and several cylinders 1 cm long and 3–4 mm in diameter. An opening in the skin is made by a metal chair hitting a penis or a specially sharpened handle of a spoon, then the plastic is inserted. These modifications are called "shary" ("шары", balls) and "shpaly" ("шпалы", crossties). Pearling is also found in members of Mara SalvatruchaGuatemala, El Salvador and Honduras. This procedure involves the piercing of the foreskin and inserting a marble, 10–15 mm in diameter. The insertion of the bead, known as "el cinco" (the marble), is done mostly in prisons by inmates without the basic hygienic conditions. Gang members use the bead as a form of gang allegiance (along with ornately decorated tattoos that depict gang life) and as a sexual enhancer. (MS-13) gang in

Genital beading is a body modification which involves the implantation of beads under the skin of the shaft of the penis. These are done primarily for the purpose of physical stimulation (for both the wearer and their partner), as well as everywhere for aesthetic reasons.Genital beading is more commonly done by men, but, recently, a handful of women have adapted this mod as well.

It is important to note that not all sexual partners enjoy the feeling of genital beads. If your partner doesn't like studded dildos and condoms, you may want to consider not getting this modification. Also, the legality of this procedure varies from region to region, but in general, similar laws apply to small-scale beading as apply to genital piercing.

Placement

For men, shaft skin and the foreskin can fairly easily heal genital implants, but they are not possible in the same context in the glans (head) of the penis, nor are they possible deeper under the skin (see deep genital implants for more on that procedure).

Materials

Usually spherical 1/4" stainless steel, titanium, silicone, niobium or PTFE beads are used, but there are numerous other options both in terms of size and shape. It is important that the material be biocompatible to minimize risks.

Procedure

Genital beads are usually placed by using one of two methods:

Piercing Technique

Beads can be placed using a technique very similar to a frenum piercing, except that the jewelry is left entirely inside the wound, rather than with the ends protruding. When the entrance and exit holes heal, the bead is thus trapped inside. The piercing is made with either a scalpel or a large gauge piercing needle. A taper follows, enlarging the hole to accept the bead, which is pushed by a second rod. The taper and the pusher rod (often combined into a beading tool) place the bead, and are then removed. The incisions are usually closed with either a standard suture or a butterfly bandage. Genital Ribs are typically placed using this method as well.

Pros: Simple and fast procedure, no more painful, invasive, or complex than a genital piercing. Suitable for normal piercing studios and home practitioners.

Cons: Two incisions required per bead (entrance and exit of needle), and limited in terms of maximum bead size.

1. Making the incision. In this case, a scalpel is being used, but a larger gauge needle (8ga and up) is also an option.
2. Inserting the first (leading) taper.
3. Holding the bead between the taper and the pusher rod.
4. Placing the bead.
5. The bead is in place. The purple discoloration is just surgical marker, indicating that the bead is in the right location.
6. The incisions have been closed with surgical tape.

Implant Technique

Genital beads can also be placed in a similar method to a standard 3D art-style implant. A single incision is made a short distance from the first bead. A spatula is inserted into this incision and used to create a "pocket" or "tunnel" under the skin. Beads are pushed into this pocket which is then sutured or bandaged closed. Tape or other pressure may be applied to help keep the beads from shifting along the channel.

This is the most common method for female genital beading.

Pros: Allows for almost anything in terms of size and shape to be implanted. Only a single incision is required, even if an entire row of beads is implanted, resulting in no scarring other than the one incision, which can be hidden at the base of the penis.

Cons: Invasive and requires medical knowledge in addition to standard piercing techniques, as well as being more painful.

1. Incision point (top) and the proposed locations for a three-bead ladder have been indicated with surgical marker.
2. Making the incision. This is the only incision that has to be made for all three beads.
3. Using a dermal elevator/separator to create the channel for the beads.
4. Finishing the pocket for the implants.
5. Inserting the first implant. Some artists do this by hand, while others use tools.
6. The incision has been sutured closed, and the procedure is complete. After this, tape may be added to help minimize migration for the first couple days.

Healing and Aftercare

Once in place, the implants are, essentially, permanent, although they can be surgically removed. Assuming the bead is of a high-quality material and was placed with proper attention to anatomy and sterility concerns, healing beading should be relatively uneventful and trouble-free. Other than regular washing, no aftercare should be required (if sutures were used, they can be taken out at home about a week later using cuticle scissors and tweezers).

In the rare case that beadings become infected, a doctor will probably prescribe antibiotics. Because there is no real way for these modifications to drain, in the case of infection, you may be required to have the implants removed.

In very rare cases (usually due to poor placement, but not always), rejection can happen, where the implant first blisters or bruises and then rejects up through the skin like a splinter and falls out. Migration, where the beads shift around under the skin and change their layout, is quite common. It can be minimized by giving the beads time to heal (as the skin layers reattach, they should bind the beads in place), but even that can't guarantee it, so do be prepared for beads not to look 'perfect.

Alternative Names

Pearling

is a type of genital beading using real pearls instead of metal or plastic beads —although some people refer to all forms of genital implantation as pearling.

Yakuza Beads

is a reference to a supposed Yakuza ritual of placing one pearl under the skin of the penis for every year spent behind bars.

„Бостън глоуб”:САЩ искат да остане закона за хомосексуалистите

„Бостън глоуб”:САЩ искат да остане закона за хомосексуалистите

15 октомври 2010

Вашингтон. Министерството на правосъдието опита да продължи, поне засега политиката, която забранява откритото демонстриране на хомосексуални наклонности на военните, като заяви, че съдебното решение за незабавна отмяна на тази политика от тази седмица ще разруши военната подготвеност и ще усложни настоящото преразглеждане на политиката, пише „Бостън глоуб”.
Искането за запазване на министерството на правосъдието идва в момента, в който то подготвя официално обжалване на решението на федералния съд от вторник за прекратяване на тази политика. Федералният съдия Вирджиния Филипс преди това отсъди, че е противоконституционно хомосексуалистите във войската да държат сексуалната си ориентация в тайна.

Хомосексуалността не е въпрос на избор, смята Барак Обама

15 октомври 2010

Вашингтон. Американският президент Барак Обама заяви, че според него хомосексуалността и транссексуалността не са въпрос на житейски избор, а са биологично условени преди раждането, предаде АФП.
Докато администрацията му търпи критики за бавния напредък към отхвърлянето на забраната хомосексуалисти открито да служат в американската армия, Обама изложи вижданията си по въпросите на сексуалната ориентация.
„Разбира се, очевидно е, не претендирам да съм експерт. Това е мнението на лаик”, коментира Обама. „Но не мисля, че това е избор. Мисля, че хората са родени с определена нагласа, и че всички сме деца на Бога”, коментира по темата американския държавен глава в отговор на зададен въпрос.

Сблъсъци между полиция и контрадемонстранти на гей парада в Белград / Serb anti-gay protesters attack political party offices

Сблъсъци между полиция и контрадемонстранти на гей парада в Белград

Автор:ББС,РТС

© Снимка:БГНЕС

С коктейли "Молотов" и камъни протестиращи посрещнаха участниците в тазгодишния гей парад в сръбската столица Белград. Полицията използва сълзотворен газ, за да отблъсне контрадемонстрантите, които се опитаха да нахлуят през кордона, охраняващ парада.

Франс прес съобщава за близо 60 ранени полицаи и цивилни. Според данни на агенцията около хиляда са били участниците в парада, сред които и известната сръбска актриса Миряна Каранович, както и представители на международната общност.

Сръбската православна църква се обяви срещу провеждането на парада, а във вчерашната контрадемонстрация срещу него взеха участие между 5 и 10 хиляди души. В същото време редица международни организации обявиха провеждането на парада като тест за зрелостта на сръбската демокрация.

Първият гей парад в Сърбия, проведен през 2001 г., беше белязан от остри сблъсъци между участниците в парада и крайнодесни екстремисти. Миналата година парада не се състоя заради опасения за сигурността на участниците.

Serb anti-gay protesters attack political party offices

The BBC's Mark Lowen: "It has got very nasty"

Serbian police have clashed with protesters trying to disrupt a Gay Pride parade in the capital, Belgrade.

Police used tear gas against the rioters, who threw petrol bombs and stones at armed officers and tried to break through a security cordon.

A garage attached to the headquarters of the ruling Democratic Party was briefly set on fire, and at least one shot was fired at the building.

At least 50 people were injured, most reported to be police officers.

A number of people were arrested.

This was the first Gay Pride parade in Serbia since a march in 2001 was broken up in violent clashes provoked by far-right extremists.
'Hooligan gangs'

While the Gay Pride parade was moving though the city, several hundred protesters began chanting at those taking part as they tried to get close to the march.

"The hunt has begun," the AFP news agency reported them as saying. "Death to homosexuals."

Reports told of gangs of skinheads roaming the streets, throwing petrol bombs and setting off firecrackers as police battled to hold them back.

Thousands of police had sealed off central Belgrade to protect the event.

A gay pride march planned last year was cancelled amid fears of violence.

On Saturday, several thousand people had protested against the march. Right-wing groups say that homosexuality is contrary to Serbian religious and family values.

The Serbian Orthodox Church condemned the parade on Friday but also warned against violence against participants.

Democratic Party spokesperson Jelana Trivan said the violence had nothing to do with moral values.

"These are hooligan gangs which must be punished severely," Ms Trivan said.

"It is a shame for me to march, to stand for what I am, and to have thousands of cops protect me from hysteric [sic] nationalists," lesbian activist Milena, 36, told Reuters.

The BBC's Mark Lowen says homosexuality is still largely a taboo in Serbia, a conservative and religious nation.

This year's event was being seen as a test of how far the country has come from the ultra-nationalism and violence of the 1990s and on its path to EU membership.

Before the march, the head of the EU mission in Serbia, Vincent Degert, addressed around 1,000 gay activists and their supporters who gathered at a park in downtown Belgrade surrounded by riot police and armoured vehicles.

"We are here to celebrate the values of tolerance, freedom of expression and assembly," Mr Degert told the crowd.

Закон забранява на военните да признаят,че са хомосексуални

Ако си хомосексуален,по-добре мълчи!

четвъртък, 23 септември 2010

"Дойче веле"

Лейди Гага се намеси в политиката. Скандалната поп-звезда се бори срещу един според нея наистина скандален закон, известен с името „Не питай, не казвай“. Този закон забранява на военните да признаят, че са хомосексуални.
Който признае своята хомосексуална ориентация, е застрашен от уволнение – постановява оспорваният закон. Понастоящем администрацията на президента Барак Обама се опитва да отмени този регламент. Усилията й обаче се натъкват на ожесточена съпротива.
Остават още 42 дни до избора на нов американски Конгрес, поради което предизборната борба парализира политиката във Вашингтон. През януари Барак Обама уверяваше нацията, че ще изпълни едно от своите предизборни обещания: хомосексуалните военни трябва най-сетне да могат открито да признават своята сексуална ориентация.
14 000 уволнения заради хомосексуалност
От 1993 година насам този конфликт официално се замита под чергата. Максимата гласи: никой не бива питан за своите предпочитания и никой няма право да говори за тях. В случай на признание за хомосексуална ориентация или донос за нея, военните са застрашени от уволнение. През последните няколко години по тази причина са били уволнени 14 000 военнослужещи.
Това статукво възмущава не само мнозинството американци, но дори повечето представители на консервативната Републиканска партия. От нейните редици е и сенаторката от щата Мейн Сюзън Колинс. По време на дебатите около закона тя заяви следното: „Времената се промениха, затова ние трябва да променим този закон“.
Дълго време демократите очакваха към тях да се присъединят умерено-консервативни гласове като този на Сюзън Колинс от щата Мейн. Именно там се появи и Лейди Гага, но не като поп-звезда, а като политически посланик. „Аз вярвам в мисията и способностите на войниците, независимо дали те са хомо- или хетеросексуални“, каза поп-звездата.
Темата обаче се завърна като топка в полето на партийната политика. Демократите се опасяват, че през ноември ще им се наложи да се сбогуват с мнозинството си. За да предотвратят загубата на гласове, те обвързват проекта за отмяна на закона със 700 милиардна програма за Пентагона.
Студен душ за Обама
Но дори сенатор Сюзън Колинс гласува против, като обоснова своето „не“ с процедурни препятствия, създадени от демократите. Гласуването приключи в крайна сметка с 56 срещу 43 гласа. Дори трима демократи гласуваха против. Студен душ за президента Обама, неговата партия и партийната база.
Това обаче не е краят – демократите обявиха ново гласуване, вероятно след изборите. А и Обама има влиятелни съмишленици. Шефът на Пентагона, републиканецът Робърт Гейтс, се изказа положително за реформата, въпреки скептичните гласове във висшето военно командване.
