Nigerian Penis-Theft

Impossible: In Nigeria, roving gangs of thieves may surreptitiously steal mens' dorks.

A syndrome called "koro" is relatively common in Africa and the East. In this form of psychosis, men firmly believe that their dorks (to use the technical term) have been stolen, or are retracted into their abdomen or otherwise have disappeared. In some places, witches are blamed for the "theft", and "witches" have been attacked by the victims. Reference: Urology 1994 Jun;43(6):883-5. Koro: the delusion of penile retraction.
