a word about surgery (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

so i've seen a lot of people talk about surgeries, mostly genital or boob area. i'd like to comment:

i think it's not a good idea. at least it's not as good an idea as people generally think. it does not just change your looks. it also changes the tissue, and that matters.

as an example, some women do plastic surgery to get larger boobs, but i'm quite sure that this erases a large part of the nervous tissue in the boobs, so the plastic essentially doesn't feel anything, so i doubt that it would feel good to get them touched and stimulated by someone you like.

the same is true with the penis, which is not just a form factor, but also contains a lot of nervous tissue, and i'm quite sure that it would be significantly more difficult to get an orgasm without that nervous tissue. this is just something to beware. i'm not an expert on plastic surgeries, but this much seems rather straightforward to argue to me.

nothing to add, just wanted to say that this comment is phenomenal; you managed to verbalize all the points i wanted to make but couldn't figure out how to put into words, and with much more detail. thank you :)
