Penis Issues
I was traveling in Europe this summer and on a random stoplight housing, someone had stuck a penis sticker (a sticker in the shape of a penis). Â And it made me think about how often the penis is used as a symbol… of vandalism, of power, of intimidation…
I was watching a strange show on Amazon last night, a remastered TV show from communist Romania – government produced and all kinds of communist propagandist… so very interesting. Â At one point one of the cops is trying to bully his way into the American embassy and the secretary insists he must sign in in a book. Â So he draws a crude picture of an ejaculating penis…
When flashers assault people, it seems to most often (always?) be men… flashing their penises…
You never see vagina vandalism…
Or I don’t…
Nobody tries to intimidate anyone by drawing a sketch of a vagina in a log book…
I’ve yet to ever hear of any sleazebag woman opening a trench-coat and fondling her vulva in a subway…
I have never seen vagina stickers on the sides of traffic lights…
I have yet to hear men complain of being bombarded with unsolicited clit pics… Â (I’ve heard plenty of soliciting of them, however!)
Because… somehow the world thinks penises are so incredibly valuable and important that they actually carry a message or meaning of importance to other people… they try to communicate via penis…
Now, I get it, the world thinks the mens are the awesome. Â The mens are all the powerfulness. Â The dangly bits of the mens are thus imbued with super magical powerful powers and must be displayed in every way at every conceivable opportunity.
It’s basic misogyny.
But seriously… couldn’t humanity have chosen a less ridiculous looking symbol to oppress women with? Â I mean… the limp, plucked chicken thing is just… so… silly. Â Seriously… it’s like a less cheerfully colored rubber chicken… Â Even at attention, it’s not that impressive. Â It’s just a penis. Â Pretty boring… half the population has one… Not very creative, since… it literally exists on half of all the people born in the entire world.
And the circumcision thing just makes it so much more pathetic looking… Â At least uncircumcised it looks somewhat like an organic part of a human body… like animals… it looks like it occurred in nature (cause it did). Â Circumcised penises just look… so sad… and… weird…and goofy. Â I don’t think (certain) men really grasp how dopey their penises really look to so many people… I’m sure they’d find some more interesting form of graffiti to vandalize with if they did…
Totally over the “penises are so amazing we must plaster all the things with their naked chicken neck-ness!”
