Balls for Sale?

Well the real value would be if you could transplant them to a deserving recipient. I dont see why not. I suppose that the big issue would be whether the resultant sperm would carry the DNA of the new owner or whether they stayed with the original owner's DNA. If the latter then who would be considered the father of the flood of resultant offspring?? legally as well as genetically? another major issue would be of course, whether the new testicles would restore youthfull vigour to the elderly - I mean as transplants not as deep fried food morsels as some would consider them. Seems like a topic that others more knowledgeable than myself could opine on??? Let your imagination run riot. D:D

Being able to transplant testicles into another human would make an interesting story....anyone game to write it?

Well castrations are generally illegal as well but they happen anyway. Thai surgeons would likely help out. It could become a major trade in body parts like the sale of kidneys for transplant in Pakistan:dong::dong:

Actually castrations, as such, at least in the US, are NOT illegal. Only those done by cutters. The problem is getting by the biases of doctors and the ethos of hippocratic oathes - education is essential. As for transplantss, my understanding is that the DNA would not be an issue; I would suspect most such transplants wouldnt be fertile anyway. That aside, I understand that the micro surgery of a testicular transplant would not make is highly feasible, though I cant attest with certainty to that.

Imagination is a wonderful thing, but...

Transplantation carries a high risk of rejection. Like all transplant recipients, ball receivers would have to take powerful immune suppressors for life to try to keep their balls from rejecting.

The DNA would be of the donor, not the recipient.
