** In one of the earliest episodes, Fry's hands get eaten by a ''[[StockDinosaurs T. rex]]''. He's then taken to a "Handcrafters" store to get new hands. He says [[TropeNamer "I'll break them in tonight."]]

-->-- '''Medtech''', ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'', "Something Something Something Dark Side"

* In the second ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' ''Franchise/StarWars'' Special, Chris/Luke Skywalker gets a replacement hand. The conversation between him and the doctor is the page quote.
** In the third, Herbert/Obi-Wan suggests Chris test it out by pretending he's pulling a carrot out of the ground.

* ''Webcomic/GodMode'' once explored the prospect of masturbating with a '''GodHand'''.

* ''ExploitationNow'': Among other improvements, Jordan Kennedy fitted her prosthetic hand with a vibrator mode...

* Although Paul of ''[[Creator.BenCroshaw Yahtzee]] Takes On The World'' has had the bionic arm for quite a while by this point, King Penguin is the first to [[http://yahtzee.comicgenesis.com/d/20010419.html point this trope out]] to him.

* ''[[WesternAnimation/Ben10AlienForce Ben 10: Alien Force]]'': One of Ben's alien enemies was trapped in a duplicate of Ben's body. Among his complaints: the hands, which had an alarming tendency to touch "places I suspect are inappropriate."

->''"Practice on a hotdog first. Otherwise you might rip your dick off."''

** In ''The Devil's Hands are Idle Playthings'', he switches hands with the robot devil. While the Robot Devil's hands immediately try to choke Fry, the robot devil complains that Fry's hands "keep ''touching'' me! In ''places''!". Fry responds: "Yeah, they get around".
* In the second ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' ''Franchise/StarWars'' Special, Chris/Luke Skywalker gets a replacement hand. The doctor tells him "I'd practice on a hot dog first".

* On one episode of ''TheOneShow'', Peter Kay was in the studio during an item on robotic prosthetic hands. They had an example of the breed on the desk, and he jokingly asked to take it home a number of times, with the heavy implication that he plans to do this.

* ''TheBigBangTheory'': [[CasanovaWannabe Howard]] + cutting-edge robotic hand + unexpected breakdown = HilarityEnsues.

* In ''{{Goblins}}'', Dies-Horribly loses his hand in an adventurer attack, but a friendly refugee from a DouglasAdams novel saves him and gives him a replacement limb, made from a strange form of living metal. It's got the strength of metal, but is nearly as light as his original flesh, and can instantly reform if damaged. It also grows hooks, barbs and sharp edges on reflex if Dies-Horribly is scared (which happens a lot). Dies-Horribly comments that he'll have to be more careful where he puts that hand, demonstrating it with a... recognizeable motion. He then immediately denies the implications, claiming that he meant scratching an itch.

* ''CtrlAltDel'': [+++'''''[[http://www.cad-comic.com/cad/20070428 AUUUGHWHY?!]]'''''+++]

* In the ''{{Unsounded}}'' universe, some models of [[ArtificialLimbs simulacra]] include [[http://www.casualvillain.com/Unsounded/comic/ch03/ch03_40.html features for this very purpose.]]

* ''{{Futurama}}''

* In the second ''FamilyGuy'' ''StarWars'' Special, Chris/Luke Skywalker gets a replacement hand. The doctor tells him "I'd practice on a hot dog first".

* The "practice on a hot dog" line was earlier said in ''TheVentureBrothers'', in the true history of Billy's hand.

* ''TheBigBangTheory'': [[CasanovaWannabe Howard]] + cutting-edge robotic hand. HilarityEnsues.

* Surprisingly inverted in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDad''. Steve's hand is rendered numb, and the standard implication is that he would try to give himself a ''stranger''. However, he is ''robbed'' of the sexual experience of getting to second base, because he can't feel anything.

Of course, this is a specific example of ADateWithRosiePalms. Maybe that date's in the planning stages...

* There's a somewhat similar situation in one of the ''Series/DoctorWho EighthDoctorAdventures'' novels involving a war veteran who has an injury that causes his arm to constantly shake. A woman jokes about the "advantages", making the Doctor [[ChasteHero confused]] and everyone else uncomfortable and embarrassed.

* ''[[WesternAnimation/Ben10AlienForce]]'': One of Ben's alien enemies was trapped in a duplicate of Ben's body. Among his complaints: the hands, which had an alarming tendency to touch "places I suspect are inappropriate."

* ''[[WesternAnimation/Ben10AlienForce Alien Force]]'': One of Ben Ten's alien enemies was trapped in a duplicate of Ben's body. Among his complaints: the hands, which had an alarming tendency to touch "places I suspect are inappropriate."

* Discussed in ''Leviathan Wakes'' by James S. A. Corey. A minor character loses his hand in a setting where good prosthetics exist, and another character tells him there's a period in the prosthetic acclimatization that he should take advantage of where you have enough control over the hand to masturbate, but it still doesn't feel like it's your hand doing it.
