Why old statues have tiny penises

See I always thought they were lifelike.

There seems to have been a bizarre amount of coverage on dick size in the webernets media the last couple months.

Some of the more interesting stuff Iā€™ve read on the subject has some interesting connections to these shriveled art dicks. Apparently in terms of the US, and certain other western nations. Its really only white dudes that are consistently and incredibly obsessed/insecure with penis size. And as much as they (we?) obsess about their own penises they are just as, if not more, obsessed with Black dudeā€™s penises. Which basically directly feeds that whole ā€œcuckā€ and ā€œcuckservativeā€ thing coming out of the alt right, as well as the preponderance of weirdly racist porn in the world.

I bring it up because of the central point of the original post, and Iā€™ve heard that a lot. They say in ancient Greece small penises were desirable. And that large penises were associated with crassness, hyper sexuality, hyper masculinity, and well basically ā€œbarbariansā€. The unrefined and uncultured. Thatā€™s not materially different from how we see them today. In fact the myth that black people have enormous threatening dongs is sourced in applying exactly that stereotype to black men. Hulking, sexually insatiable, giant penis having barbarians coming for your women. And the general desirability of jumbo dongs is pretty much tied up in those same assumptions about what they mean about virility and masculinity. Its just those things are either viewed as desirable traits to have, or applied to some one else in creepily sexualized fashion.

Needs a banana for scale then.

No. Classical statuary is safe for work in the civilized world.

How many folks you reckon have done a PhD thesis based on dick size?

More than a few. I mean there was a famous, large, and internationally organized study on which country SHITS the biggest (the answer is the Fins). I guarantee you thereā€™s a bunch of people out there who are Doctors of dong expansiveness.

Jeez, thanks for the Spoiler Alert. Iā€™d have read that study with avid interest.

Because art imitates life?

(I had to.)

Thank you for a well thought out response that included the phrase ā€œjumbo dongsā€

Made my day a little better. :slight_smile:

I guess it depends on who you asked.

I challenge anyone to come up with a funnier term for cack than ā€œdongā€.

The ancients thought the ā€˜essenceā€™ cooled down traveling through a large penis and a small penis was more virile and produced a hotter, more effective semen. .

Why? Whatā€™s so special about their diet?

Iā€™d just gotten back to my desk after many hours away, opened up BB in a new tab, and discovered that Iā€™m out of likes already. So, here you go:

I donā€™t know how you do that.

I have the same daily like limit as you, and I find it impossible to give them all away.

I have been actively trying today, to no avail.

Try not being stingy with the love? :wink:

I have the same problem as @anon67050589 often timesā€¦

Maybe itā€™s because I go through a day or two without logging on, and when I get here, I have a fair amount of stuff to read and likes to give?

Didnā€™t we determine that there seems to be a gender bias in like-giving, at least among the more prolific posters? Social conditioning, popping up in a whole new arena.

AFAICT, Iā€™ve given away ~150 likes in the past 24 hours.
And I still have more! Gah!

So women are just nicer, is what youā€™re saying! :wink:

We did, actually. But maybe this applies to how one browses the site here as well.
