The process called '''genital bisection''' is the total splitting of genitals. It generally refers to doing this to the male genitals, specifically dividing the penis into usually symmetric halves.

'''Branding''' is [[Scarification|scarification]], usually through the application of a heated material (usually metal) to the [[Skin|skin]], making a serious burn that eventually becomes a [[Scar|scar]]. Ideally, a healed branding looks like a pattern of thick raised lines, slightly lighter than skin color (when fully healed). However, the amount of raising or [[Keloid|keloiding]] varies greatly, dependent on a large number of factors. Sometimes they even inset rather than raise.
Partial splitting is either in length (ie. [[Head splitting]]) or in axis (the far more common [[Meatotomy]] and [[Subincision]] procedures where only the bottom of the shaft is split, or the very rare [[Superincision]] where only the top is split). Other variations include [[Inversion|inversion]] where the split leaves the glans intact, allowing the penis to be effectively ''"turned inside out."''


Scarification operates through controlled injury. It is not safe. That said, many things we do every day are not safe either. Practised responsibly by experienced practitioners, scarification of all kinds should fall inside "acceptable risk."
In most cases, the penis remains fully functional, although some rigidity loss is possible. The penis maintains its form by the two halves of the [[Corpus cavernosum]]. When they are no longer attached, the penis tends to curve in on itself (as seen in the first photo showing an erect full bisection), making insertion more difficult, but far from impossible.

There are many ways to branding. The traditional way is [[Strike Branding|strike branding]], but new forms like [[Electrocautery|electrocautery]], [[Electrosurgery|electrosurgery branding]] (also known as laser branding). Some people also brand with a hand held [[Cautery pen|cautery pen]].

A brand takes a long time to heal. It will probably look very scary for a while. Brands go through a few phases of healing, which differ in length from brand to brand a great deal.

It should be noted that recent studies have been started around the safety of vapors given off during the use of surgical cauteries. You see, doctors removing [[Genital warts|genital warts]] were ending up with the exact same warts forming in their sinuses due to the inhalation of the vapors!
 
==Tattoos==
 
Brandings can be tattooed over, but the scar has to be WELL HEALED (in generally, at least a year old). Assuming that the scar is well healed, it should be able to hold ink just as well as "normal" skin.
 
==Removal==
 
In theory, a cosmetic surgeon can remove a brand using lasers and other advanced techniques, but it will be very expensive and not necessarily effective. Don't get a brand if you don't want one—it's a serious burn resulting in a serious burn scar, and must be removed as such.
 
==History==
Historically (in Europe), branding was generally limited to punishment. Both the English (with an S on the cheek) and the French (with a fleur de lis on the shoulder) branded criminals, along with almost every other culture.
 
==Cold Branding==
 
A very small number of people have experimented with cold branding using liquid nitrogen.
 
===Procedure===
The actual procedure is surprisingly similar to strike branding. Instead of immersing the (often copper) iron into the heat of a propane torch, the iron is bathed in a solution of liquid nitrogen.

The process called genital bisection is the total splitting of genitals. It generally refers to doing this to the male genitals, specifically dividing the penis into usually symmetric halves.

Partial splitting is either in length (ie. Head splitting) or in axis (the far more common Meatotomy and Subincision procedures where only the bottom of the shaft is split, or the very rare Superincision where only the top is split). Other variations include inversion where the split leaves the glans intact, allowing the penis to be effectively "turned inside out."

In most cases, the penis remains fully functional, although some rigidity loss is possible. The penis maintains its form by the two halves of the Corpus cavernosum. When they are no longer attached, the penis tends to curve in on itself (as seen in the first photo showing an erect full bisection), making insertion more difficult, but far from impossible.

Nerve damage is a possibility in rare cases.
