Go ahead - test me!!!
The penile plethysmograph is a machine for measuring changes in the circumference of the penis. It was originally developed in Czechoslovakia to prevent draft dodgers from claiming they were gay just to avoid military service.
The Czech Republic is considered one of the most liberal Central Europe countries with regard to gay rights but a BBC report reveals that this’sexual arousal’ machine (or peter meter) is now being used on asylum seekers who claim to be homosexual .
Apparently the procedure involves wiring up the cock and checking for signs of excitement when viewing heterosexual porn.
Presumably if something comes up they are officially pronounced straight.
Aside from the obvious human rights violations, the accuracy of this test must be open to serious doubt. After all, most hardcore porn shows well hung, muscular men being sucked off and engaging in anal sex. Surely a red-blooded gay man is just as likely to get off on such images as on male only movies. Or, then again, what’s to stop them from thinking of something really boring while watching?
