The term peniscaptivus describes a relatively rare medical condition in which a woman's vaginal muscles uncontrollably spasm during intercourse, trapping her partner's penis inside her vagina. The only solution to such a problem is to administer muscle relaxants to the female in question, thereby alleviating the spasms and effecting a penile escape. Case studies of penis captivus have been documented in reputable medical literature. Really.
However, this condition does not actually exist. Nowadays, most members of the medical community discount the theory of penis captivus as implausible, if not impossible. Vaginismus is a physical manifestation of a psychological condition (usually because a woman has been sexually abused in her past), and invariably occurs before penetration, not during intercourse. A few physicians (who are in a distinct minority) believe that penis captivus may be possible, but if so, the condition would certainly cease to be a problem after the man loses his erection. To this day, Osler's prank continues to live on in the form of urban legend.

It would also be wise to remove the hyperlinks as they go nowhere now you have copied and pasted the material to a different domain. I've taken care of that in the quoted section above. :smile:
EDIT: I have always wondered how it would be possible for a vagina to spasm tight enough to not allow the flaccid penis to slip out, especially with the natural lubrication of the vagina during intercourse.
The OP's explanation of the blood from the erection being trapped strikes me as implausible because the vagina would have to be spasming in a very specific ring around the base of the penis. Exercising my own muscles as I type* I just can't imagine that happening.
*I am a regular and dedicated kegeler and am attempting to teach myself to clench and unclench the muscle groups separately as per a 'milking' technique that has been described here before. So I am fairly au fait with the way those muscle groups work.
