A man was sentenced to jail in Pontiac, Michigan for performing a castration on his kitchen table.

Man jailed for home castration

A judge has jailed a Taiwanese man who performed a castration in his kitchen.

Suo-Shan Wang, 29, was arrested in June after the willing victim of the castration became unwell outside his home.

Wang was convicted of practising medicine without a licence and sentenced to 14 months to four years.

Willing victim?!  So just what motivated this step?

The man who underwent the castration did so because he wanted to curb his sex drive as he had a sexually transmitted disease, prosecutors said.

Man, that’s a bit drastic.  Hasn’t this guy ever heard of condoms?

So where did the enterprising pseudo-surgeon learn this skill?

Wang told police he learned the skill from his grandparents. He performed his first surgery on a dog and then on the dog’s owner and three of the owner’s friends in Australia, prosecutors said.

Hmmm…  Those are some really impressive credentials.

Another interesting tidbit turned up in this article.

Authorities say that after the procedure, the men shared a slice of pie at the same table on which the castration was performed.

I certainly wouldn’t share anything with someone who did that to me, but then I’d never willingly do something that freakin’ stupid.  I cringe just thinking about it.  Ugh.
