Intimate Mementos
For the Woman who Really Loved her Man…
While Nothing Can Possibly Take Away Your Sorrow and Loss, There Will Come a Day When You Will Look Back on Those Happy Times… Those Loving, Playful And Intimate Times You Shared…
With Contentment.
And a Wish For Some Special Keepsake.
The times and customs are changing! You might keep diamonds made from his ashes. You could keep an urn of ashes or ashes blended in with glass. Or, you can keep an Intimate Memento – You can now have the most private, intimate parts of him that he shared with you - preserved to last forever. Modern chemistry now allows us to preserve indefinitely - and in amazing lifelike likeness - his actual male organ!
If he was proud of it, and he enjoyed sharing it with you, wouldn’t he like you to have his penis and testicles to keep, treasure, and remember him by?
We use a new process called “Plastination”, which preserves indefinitely every bit of the original tissue, in fine lifelike detail. The resulting Intimate Memento is sterile, non-toxic, very durable, and safe to handle and display as you see fit.
Wouldn’t he be proud of you for keeping and cherishing that most-special part of him?
The genitals, i.e.: the entire penis (preferably, including the root and “bulb”, which are the internal parts attached to the body), testicles, scrotum - and, if you prefer, the pubic scalp - are harvested as quickly as possible after death. Excess blood should be immediately worked and rinsed out of the penis and testicles, and the anatomical specimen placed into a heavy-gauge plastic bag. A safe preservative called “Formalin” is injected and/or poured over the genitals in the bag, and the bag sealed and placed in a heavy Rubbermaid container, which is then placed inside a heavy cardboard container, along with dry ice. (A local medical professional or someone from the funeral home can perform this service.) […] More Formalin is injected into the specimen, then if possible, the penis is engorged with Formalin and an attempt is made to erect it to the degree the Executor has requested in the Service Contract. […] When plastination is fully complete, the genitals are set on a stone or hardwood base, and posed for shelf or wall display (vertical or horizontal pose).
Until proven otherwise, I’m assuming hoax.
(Via Die Puny Humans )
I can see someone actually offering this service.
What I can't see is enough people buying it to make the venture commercially viable.

My wife and I disagree - it makes more sense than a widow keeping diamonds or ashes. Like they say, "If you can't take it with you, why not leave it with someone who cares?"

This strikes me as the sort of thing a lot of men might imagine their wives should be interested in... but that very few wives would.

A lot of wives might not want to have their man's penis and balls preserved.
Then on the other hand... I know of several who DEFINITELY WOULD!!!
The only obsticle might be HOW to get them taken off, and how to get them to the guys at Intimate Mementos. Maybe cost, too.
But, nearly everyone I know thinks it's about time that someone had the balls to start a business like this. Great idea!
