    Who knows what o.g. wolverine has in their pants? They may as well be hermaphrodite… The question assumes too much :)

    in comic universe, wolverine’s power works off of some metaphysical idea of what his existing body should be and so the dick would grow back

    now if someone wanted to argue there was a mental component that’d be fun but i don’t think we’ve had any story evidence to that affect

      So in theory, if wolverine was amab they would animorphs shift into a female body the moment the x-gene activated their powers?

    Not to sound like a chud but he’s biologically male. His Y chromosomes aren’t just gonna disappear, he’s gonna grow his dick back.

    And it’d happen before the surgery was even over

      He was blown it a bunch of tiny little bots once and restored to his prior shape. He’s trapped in that body.

      Y doesn’t contain “dick information” it contains “dick infrastructure schedule information”. The infrastructure builds and maintains dickindustry.

      The only thing that makes a dick and balls is a hormone signal at a specific stage in a fetus’ life. Wether or not a fetus gets that signal dickindustry or pussyindustry will continue as the existing structures dictate. There are plenty of XY pussy-ovary births and XX dick-testes births due to this fact. The people usually never find out, as they lead normal lives.

      Though I agree with you that her dick would show back up, that’s because her regeneration is magic, not science, and the comic gods said she had a dick and that’s that. It would take a big arc for her to get a pussy, old gods or time travel or dimension hopping or something.

      Maybe a deal with Loki that gave wolverine a snarky, chaotic neutral pussy with its own agenda? Also, stop misgendering our beautiful wolverine!

      Yeah, I think trans Wolverine would be even more trapped by biology than other trans persons. She would need some cutting-edge gene-editing treatment to remove/replace the Y across much of the body. As a native CA person, I believe she’ll have quite the wait to get that treatment, and I don’t think there’s a DIY option that could work for her.

    At first I thought dick, but then again their bones regenerate as adamantium so maybe regeneration does preserve surgical modifications.

      Wolverine’s bones would like to regenerate, but the adamantium is in the way. This prevents regeneration. The implications of this should be obvious. Wolverine’s gonna need an adamantium dilator.

      I’m not deep enough inthe lore, I assumed they just burned his flesh/muscle away and plated the bones letting everything regenerate back over them

        In The Wolverine, his claws are sliced off by an adamantium sword and the bones regrow. The adamantium does not regrow.

        I think they do when they are bones. The adamantium doesn’t break, so it don’t need to regenerate.

          What happens if you cut wolverines arm off then? Does he need to get the bones back and hold them in place before it heals?

            The more you ask questions the more the unreality of the situation shows, so I guess it would depend on the writer.

            You couldn’t normally cleave or smash an adamantium bone, so it would much harder to dismember Wolverine. You’d have to cut ligaments and tendons carefully to avoid the bones, while fighting the regeneration at the same time. But, I think if you figured out some way to separate part of the adamantium skeleton from Wolverine, when the a new part grew to replace the removed part, the new part would contain “normal” bones.

              That’s what happened when Magneto stripped him of adamantium. It fucked Wolverine up bad but he recovered and went back to how he was until Apocalypse put it back in him.

              The bones are coated in adamantium if memory serves right so presumably if you cut through his bone it would just regrow normal bone then everything else. Wolverine has had the adamantium ripped out before and while excruciating he did heal back up, he has also been disintegrated down to just his adamantium skeleton at least once before which seems to have effectively killed him but that was also the days of future past storyline so who knows maybe he could’ve regenerated from his eyes, but also there’s a version of wolverine who’s down to a stump on one arm but then again Apocalypse was involved so who knows what was going on with that.

              So in summary, data inculclusive.

              What about a powerful explosive device? Perhaps delivered with a significant amount of kinetic energy. Like a HEAT round from a 120mm cannon? To that should be able to rip limbs off. Maybe we’d be entering “ship of Theseus” territory here? Or multiple wolverines, each with their respective adamantium parts?

                multiple wolverines

                I can only imagine that some part of the brain has to be involved for the regeneration to produce a Wolverine. But, I could imagine at least two Wolverines, one non-verbal, regenerating from different parts of the brain.

                  Wouldn’t the brain regenerate completely? That is if the cranium is split.

                  The premise for my thought experiment was, that every bone was intact, and they were just separated at the connecting tissue.

                  Wouldn’t the entire body is able to regenerate from a single part, without every tissue type present? I mean not much point in regeneration, if all it takes to disable you is removing both your eyes simultaneously. Actually that would answer the original question on the removal of external sexual organs. I mean, cut off the balls and there are no balls to regenerate from. Remove the penis and there’s no cavernous tissue etc.

    We just don’t have to share all of our thoughts.

    Sometimes our brain just gives us something to play with for a moment, it’s not really for others.

    Just a little treat for us to keep to ourselves.
