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
WolverineMüllerineYes.
That’s a shower thought if I’ve ever seen one
Wolverine does sound quite feminine. Should have called them Vulver
Vulver sounds like Vulva, which sounds very feminine.
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.
Little bits I’m guessing?
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!
So you’re saying we need to dismantle the Penile Industrial Complex?
dismantle the dick PIC ? that’s a tall order
Dismember.
Big Penis cannot remain in the hands of the few! The thrust of history must bring the boons of big Penis to the masses!
Vulverina from the multiverse.
Or have someone else pick up the mantle. They probably changed it back to Logan by now though. I’m not been up to date in the comics
Why saying her? Wolverine is a male and uses he. Or did I miss a comic story line.
If Wolverine had bottom surgery, what would it imply ?
isn’t the whole point to not associate plumbing with pronouns?
if we’re taking this thought experiment to the logical end we should continue to use existing directed pronouns until told otherwise, or ask for clarification politely
Yeah sis, you missed the arc in this thread.
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.
Turns out, Wolverine grows an IT instead, viewing IT causes [REDACTED], and [REDACTED] class breach.
I’m not even trans, but this question is fascinating.
Trick question. He is a futanari and already has a vagina in addition to his cock.
She’d be an ex-man.

god damnit, i’m mad i laughed so hard
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 don’t think the bones usually regenerate
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.
You’d have to cut ligaments and tendons carefully to avoid the bones, while fighting the regeneration at the same time.
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.
Yeah, the bones are indestructible, so there’s never a need to regenerate
So the dick does regenerate
Would be easier to answer if his regenerative powers were consistent
I feel like they are pretty consistently portrayed.
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.
I’d like to see a surgeon attempt any kind of surgery on Wolverine. As soon as he is cut he immediately starts healing.
I mean, he famously had one pretty big surgery
Sure, but they constantly reference how difficult that was, how his healing factor was the only thing that let him survive it, but how it also required all kinds of machines and doohickeys to somehow introduce the adamantium into his skeleton so that it wouldn’t be rejected.
What if they make the dick heal around an adamantium vagina mold
This is t-shirt worthy. Hell, it’s worthy of being in the official marvel comic run.
Damn, when does it get so buffed? Reading 80s comics and his healing factor is “can sleep off a knife wound in a couple days” strong, not “regrows muscle in the middle of a fight”
I think you’re misremembering. In 1978 the X-Men went to the Savage Land and a dinosaur seriously chomped his arm. He basically shrugged it off saying he “heals real fast”
His healing has been dialed up and down over the decades, but unless it’s disabled (and he starts getting heavy metal poisoning), he heals from serious cuts in minutes at the most.
I think the gloves must’ve helped with the dino chomp, as well as his general macho attitude
I’m at around 1990 nowadays and although he says he is fine, other characters (who well know his powers) keep commenting on how rough a shape he is in and how he seems to be dying from the injuries he takes from nonstop adventuring
To me it seems like his healing factor can do a sprint to close a wound so he can finish a fight, but it can’t do the marathon of keeping him alive from constant injuries, unless given time to regenerate itself. And the regrowing flesh thing to me looks like the effort of running a marathon in the span of a sprint
Kind of like an adrenaline rush?
I’m thinking estus flask
You could have someone like Leech temporary negate his powers.
But, once they came back he’d heal back to wolverine: mutton chops, wings of hair, a hairy chest, and all the other typically male wolverine characteristics.
Sure, but it could be done, even if temporarily.
Also would the hair grow back? Isn’t hair dead cells? Or does Wolverine have sentient hair?
Magic
Wolverine has lost a hand before in Age of Apocalypse and it did not grow back. However he has regrown eyes before along with regenerating after firebombing charred him to a cinder so we can likely assume his cock and balls would also grow back.
Additional discussion question: It can be inferred that Wolverine regenerates blood, and it is known that beer has minimal effect on him due to his enhaced bodily functions related to his regeneration. With this in mind, does Wolverine have a refractory period or can he fuck all night?
He’d probably have trouble to stay in the right mood for hours on end.
Maybe it depends on their hormone levels 🤔
Right amount of HRT: Vagina. No HRT: Penis.
The healing factor would attack the foreign hormones. Wolverine can’t get drunk either because his body heals too quickly.
Those are different things, though. Hormones would be closer to vitamins, the body uses them if they’re present without necessarily causing harm to the body. The body produced hormones, but, chemically, if the hormones are made or introduced, chemically, they’re the same. Ethanol is a poison that works by affecting the brain by attaching to GABA receptors, so it is a threat to the body.
That’s all science though. Wolverine’s healing ability is basically magic. I mean, it regrows his hair to a certain length in a certain style too.
The backstory for his character is that his healing factor not only “heals” him, but basically restores him to the way he previously was whenever there’s a change to his body.
I mean, yeah, that’s magic I guess. So if Wolverine got Scarlet Witch to give him HRT, he’d have titties in a jiffy.
She can alter reality, so she could just skip the HRT and re-imagine him as a woman, or an elephant, or a cloud of sentient dust.
it regrows his hair to a certain length in a certain style too.
lol I totally didn’t think about that, hmm…
Hormones are also processes by the liver for what its worth, specifically estradiol
it’s a fictional godlike character, what happens is what best suits the story
All people contain both estrogen and testosterone. They just have them in different quantities. How would his body know that they’re not natural?
As I said, magic.
