Man hacks off testicle over low wage

A Peruvian man who last year chopped off his penis in protest at not having a job has sliced off one of his testicles because of his low pay.

Labourer Eduardo Velez Alejos, 36, whose penis has been successfully re-attached, made his unusual protest outside the country's parliament.

He asked guards outside the Lima building to let him speak to President Carlos Ferrero Costa. When they refused, he pulled out a knife and cut off his left testicle.

According to the El Comercio newspaper, he was taken to the Dos de Mayo hospital. Doctors failed to reattach the testicle during emergency surgery.

"I'm doing all this to protest at my terrible situation," he told doctors.

Hospital spokesman Carlos Viera said: "He's a labourer. Last year he was asking for work. This time he wanted a pay rise because he says his wages are low."

Mr Viera said Velez can still enjoy "a normal sex life".

If your wage is too low, wouldn't you want to cut off your employer's testicle (or in the case of a female employer, their.....well I don't know what)?

What will this man do when he is out of testicles...hope that his wage is adequate?

There is a vulger spanish phrase that I believe originates in Cuba that is used to term a person worthless.
A "One-balled" person is called a Chiclán

This story reminds me of something I heard a year or two ago, a man thought his penis was possessed by demons and therefore he... removed it, with a sharp knife, the doctors managed to re-attach it.
