Please tell me about the Jesus Penis.

Scraping through the red dust of sunset, I took to forward glances like innocent children first daring to chances. That being said, this weekend seems like one slow drowning. But with good moments of shopping and stupidity thrown in for measure. I had to buy the Radiohead ‘limited edition’ version of Hail to the Theif. Of course I had copy, but

you should read the book called, "a mind of its own: the cultural history of the penis". its awesome. very interesting. from caveman times to present- the penis. so if you honestly love dick, read it. but don't take MY word for it! *reading rainbow weird sound*

I love anyone who recomends a good book to me. Until I read it, you'll just have to settle for an unrelenting crush. I do love dick, honest. Did you just guess or did I give it away? And Reading Rainbow sounds, weird or otherwise, will always get a big grin from me.

Good idea, but then you really would need to get me a cart to drag me around in. Whee...

what exactly was the picture of? If it was a naitivity scene, or a scene likely to have taken place just afterwards, the circumcision would not have happened yet. Circumcision usually occurs on the eighth day.

Which is not to say that artists always respect the likely state of historical cocks. Michaelangelo's David is intact, even though the biblical and historical David most certainly was snipped. But Michaelangelo is pervy that way.

I'd thought about the time factor, but he looked so big and plump (jesus not his penis) that I took that to mean a few weeks later. It just gave me pause for thought because I'd been saying you never jesus with his full crotch exposed, and then there it was, foreskin rendered with some consideration for overhang, and the glans shining through.

There are times when you often see jesus completely exposed, even as an adult. It depends on the era, and then in some eras artists were made to go back and add coy "draperies".

But I wouldn't necessarily assume he was old just because he was plump. I mean, this is God we're talking about. It reasonable to assume that he is a healthier and haler baby than average.
