This post at Liberal Conspiracy about the cock is required reading.
I’m talking, of course, about the booming industry of surgical penis ‘enlargement’, the nearest male equivalent to labiaplasty. We’ve all had versions of those relentless spam emails, offering in poor English to furnish us with a magnificent schlong for the price of a university education.
Yes, it’s fucking political. Male sexual neurosis is massively damaging, to feminism, to society, and to men themselves. This is not male apologism, or backsliding, it’s one feminist’s request for more discussion of a damaging socio-sexual taboo, in the context of a blog post in which I get to shout ‘COCK!’ a lot.
This is a massively important subject. And it’s a brilliant excuse for me to post the Penis Song.
But after watching it, go and read the whole post.
Yeah, well, it’s a lesson.
By the way, one doesn’t need any excuses for posting the Penis Song. No, sir…
In my experience size isn’t important… then again… that’s probably why my wallpaper keeps peeling off.
