Default Settings

Once upon a time, someone somewhere had started a conversation about penis pix and the baffling belief males seem to hold that women are actually going to be turned on by unsolicited photos of men's junk. (And may I just mention once again: WRONG!)


During the course of that conversation, gg made the observation that, “penis pictures are - well - ugly. Even the most perfect penis needs context.”


I absolutely loved that utterance, and repeated it to BG. He chuckled… but I could see the wheels turning. A few days later, this arrived, along with the suggestion that I might want adopt this as my starting point when forming any frame of reference. 




Men really are infinitely predictable...

Ha! And agreed. They are so ugly without any relatable setting.

I've only very rarely gotten an unsolicited dick pic and when I have, the offense has NOT been repeated. Thankfully.

But men are disproportionately enamored of their own junk. Have you noticed? (That was a rhetorical question; of course you've noticed!)

I sometimes participate in a sexy photo meme, and the women are creative -- hands, thighs, legs, necks, lips, various states of dress or undress, patterns on skin, etc. But the men? 99.9% of the time, it's dick pics. WHY?!? 😱

This is great, very funny. I am so not into penis pix.

Hi Jz - I so agree: men. I have to say I can't hooked visually ... but having seen an elephant's one - that's done me for life! Only seen ... not experienced - I'm very glad to say ... but fun post - thank you! Hilary

B-
There’s that…
the whole gobsmackingly presumptuous aspect…
and seriously, I don’t really care what it looks like as long as you know what to do with it!

(oops. Did I type that out loud?)

Feve,
Well, SP assures me it’s because men are simple creatures. “Give us a beer and get naked and we’re happy.”
I’m not sure that fully explains the complete lack of understanding but it does explain some…
I suppose…

B-
I think men are the only ones who are.
You’d think they’d catch on and just mail them to each other, wouldn’t you?

H-
Yes, that is a sight that stays with you, isn’t it?
I had the thrill for myself when visiting an elephant orphanage with my family.
I don’t know which was the best part: the look of astonished glee on my young nephew’s face, the mahout nearly falling off the elephant from laughing at my nephew, or my sister-in-law, attempting nonchalance as she explained that well, yes, it’s a very long way to reach from one elephant to another…
:-D

Laughing, and shaking my head over men. Even the best have this delusion.

mm-
It's astonishingly consistent, isn't it?
