It is becoming better known, these days, that genitalia aren’t quite as standardized as most people assume. It’s also a sad truth that infants born with equipment that doesn’t conform to the assumed standard often suffer brutal rearrangement under a surgeon’s knife. But even so, I think this particular anecdote should not be given very much weight, except for any entertainment value it may offer. It’s from the so-called 1977 World Sex Almanac, which billed itself as “a handy-dandy catalog of odds and ends about strange orifices and appendages.” The publisher was Circle Library Editions, better known for such stroke book titles as The Naughty Nun and Lust Letters To The Editor:

According to confirmed reports from two eyewitness females, there lives a man in San Diego, California, a Mr. Jack Hornbelt who has not one organ, but two, completely functional, fully capable penises. The two phallic appendages share a single scrotum and they operate independently of one another.

At the point of attachment, the two penises are less than an inch apart. They point away from one another at a nearly ninety degree angle.

One of the women who made her report to our editors claims to have seen the man during a state of sexual arousal: “It was quite remarkable. After all, how often is it that you see two dicks, side by side, on the same man, fully erect. But there they were, both of them, standing up proud as day like a couple of flag poles. They’re both circumcised, and I’d say the combined length, if you could lay them end to end, is somewhere around ten or twelve inches — you know, average. Same for thickness, too. I suppose he could fuck two very skinny girls at the same time if he really wanted to.”

She also reported that the two organs looked normal when considered separately.

Mr. Hornbelt himself tells most of his friends when they ask: “With me it’s normal. I mean, I always get two erections, I never thought it was anyway different for all the other guys till I was around four. It don’t matter to me. I always get just one orgasm anyhow. Don’t ask me why.”

When asked if he ever considered surgery to make himself “more normal” Mr. Hornbelt shook his head sadly. “Wife won’t hear of it, you know. Just doesn’t want to listen to any kind of talk like that. Don’t ask me why. Just won’t hear of it.”

Although I don’t trust this particular source as far as I can throw it, diphallia is a real thing, albeit quite rare. There’s a current fellow running around who seems to be the real double-dicked deal. He calls himself DoubleDickDude, he shares photos, and he did a big Reddit Ask-Me-Anything a while back.
