“If there are lessons to be learned from the sexpo, perhaps one is to be careful how you use your newly purchased toy,” notes RFH at the end of his story for Danwei about the Guangzhou Sex Culture Festival.
If only this 30-year-old man in Shanghai had gotten the memo. A stomach-rumbling tale via Shanghai Daily:
Doctors at Zhongshan Hospital successfully removed a dildo from the intestines of a 30-year-old man, who had inserted it into his body to enhance sexual pleasure with his wife.
The dildo, measuring 23 centimeters in length and 8 centimeters in diameter, somehow got stuck in his intestines, doctors at Zhongshan Hospital in Xuhui District said yesterday.
This is not the first time we’ve encountered objects up anuses, virtually speaking (after all, there was our post in May titled Chinese People With Unfortunate Anus Problems: A Compendium). Nonetheless, we cringe at such details:
The dildo was inside the man for five days before he went to the hospital last Friday, when doctors failed to remove it. He returned the next day after trying other hospitals. Doctors found there had been a blockage of the intestines and damage to some tissue.
While laughing at others!
“Doctors were astonished to see such a big item taken out of the patient’s body.”
The lesson here: Sometimes what goes in doesn’t come out, especially when that something is a 9-inch dildo. Or did the Guangzhou Sex Culture Festival teach you nothing?
“There have been three similar cases so far this year,” Yao said
Right, apparently it’s taught us nothing.
“These patients were in deep pain when they arrived at the hospital.
“People must use sex toys properly and avoid ones that are too big as they can hurt people,” Yao added.

Well, judging by the way he’s proudly holding his dildo, he doesn’t look too upset by the episode.
Mr Gay, I think the object in the picture is the opposite of a dildo.
I bow down to your superior knowledge, bert.
Haha!
Please don’t bow down, it be not safe!
