I’m guessing that lesson would be “don’t leave your dumbass husband home alone with sharp knives or other cutting tools,” but I could be wrong. Naturally the fellow has a perfectly good explanation for his actions.
MAN CUTS OFF PENIS TO TEACH WIFE A LESSON
A Kenyan villager has cut off his penis and testicles with a kitchen knife “to teach his wife a lesson.”
Police say Alfonse Mumbo, of Kajulu Wath Orego, near Kisumu, severed his genitalia after accusing his wife, Penina of unfaithfulness.
Officers say the 38-year-old former barber said he wanted “to give her a free hand to go after other men.” He told police he loved her so much, he could make the sacrifice.
Mr Mumbo has told the East African Standard: “ It was around 8 o’clock in the morning when I started feeling dizzy. My wife had left for the farm. I don’t know what came over me.
“All I remember is walking around the compound anxiously and answering many calls of nature. I found myself disgusted with the penis and decided to cut it off.
The article just goes downhill from there with more detail than you really need on the after-effects of this man’s decision. Personally, the last thing I would think of to do in order to teach my wife a lesson would be to cut off my own genitalia, but who am I to criticize.

Is it my imagination, or are we seeing a lot of people hacking off parts of their bodies these days? I don’t get it. I mean, if I get a paper cut, I’m in freefall, man! *THUD*
