This is the ‘world’s most dangerous sex position’

UK-based surgeon Dr. Karan Raj — who boasts 4.3 million followers on TikTok — says that the “reverse cowgirl” is the “world’s most dangerous sex position” because a man’s penis can slip out and be crushed by his partner’s pubic bone during erratic thrusting.

In a viral video that has already racked up more than 2.1 million views, Raj explains that a penis is technically boneless, but the word “fracture” is used to describe a tear in the tunica albuginea — a piece of tissue that allows the penis to become enlarged and erect.

Raj even claimed a penis fracture can cause a man’s penis to swell up and look a little like an eggplant.

However, others were left so scarred by the educational video that they vowed to no longer have sex in the raunchy position.

“My husband is now scared to come near me because of that!” one viewer humorously wrote.

However, reverse cowgirl enthusiasts may not need to be quite so concerned given that Raj’s claims are contradicted by a 2017 study published in the International Journal of Impotence Research.

Instead, it declared doggy style as the position most common for causing penile fractures — accounting for 41% of all cases.
