Genetic Engineering Bigger Penises

Nope, that's eugenics

Unnecessary reply. The OP did not suggest an alternative name for the practice of CRISPR technology or selective breeding practices.

Your answer should have been, “No I am not in favor of this… it’s simply the 21st century version of Eugenics.”

I wouldn't do it, but I wouldn't seek to deny someone else the choice.

That said I think a larger problem is environmental issues (food, plastics, etc) leading to major disruption of hormone levels necessary for male genital and sexual development. For example, testosterone which is needed for the male genitals to fully develop to their genetic potential have declined dramatically in recent decades. Related to this are the epigenetic conditions being met for full gene expression.
 
In a similar vein: had I known about pumping, and doing PE during my cock growth years I probably would have developed a larger cock? It would be cool to go back in time to experiment on myself and witness the results.

As long as they also modify women to have vaginas that can accommodate them! Honestly, I would opt for a big softie for my son, and a hard one in the 8" range. But since part of the size of a guy is determined by hormone level before birth as his mother carries him, I'm not sure this would work reliably.

The trouble with genetic manipulation isn't with the gene alteration but that we can not foresee the consequences so I would oppose.

With crispr you could literally transplant a horses penis onto your own but how would your children be affected if you even can reproduce? You can turn of myostatin genes to develop more muscles. However everything in your body has a balance like if you turn of myostatin then your ligaments throughout the body become weaker and you wouldn't be able to run without tearing your body apart.

Also you wouldn't just make this choice for yourself but all the generations after yourself that you intend to leave behind because your altered dna could be passed on or mutate in different forms.

Genetic manipulation will happen regardless even if just in limited form to treat diseases or cosmetic disadvantages, military purposes and in black market circuits but I don't believe it will be applied for body dysmorphia.
 
Providing the tech was well established enough with no known side effects then yeah definitely. Also I'd tick yes if there was a gene that could give him a hairy chest early; I desperately wanted chest hair (More than big muscles or a big cock) as a youth but had to wait until I was over 35, at least if his old man had gifted him a hairy chest and abs and he didn't want it he could shave it off. Sadly doesn't work the other way round!

As an aside he wouldn't be circumsized. I feel sorry for my North American bf who is part of the snip-em-before-they-leave-the-hospital generation. Again if he wanted or needed to be without it that'd be his decision when he became an adult.

IF it was in fact "mainstream"... then YES.

Why not give your son an advantage in life? Plus, think of all the women who will be satisfied in the process.
