Dancing With the Stars alumnus Chaz Bono is saving up the money to make his gender transformation that much more official. Yes, we’re talking about a penis transplant. Chaz tells Rolling Stone that he will pursue a metoidioplasty. If you haven’t stopped reading yet, he describes this as “a procedure that uses what you already have down there… which has grown larger from the testosterone.” Chaz will be trying out the new equipment on someone other than Jennifer Ella , who he just broke up with after a long-term relationship in which he changed genders. He opted for the metoidioplasty for the following reasons: “You end up with a smaller phallus than with the phalloplasty (another similar type of procedure), but it’s fully functional, it gets erect, and the sensation is all there.” The procedure will cost him between $25,000-$45,000. You cannot put a price on manhood, however. [Photo: WENN.com]
