From time to time every man feels a bit... inadequate. It's not like any of your partners has ever said anything about size (well, not to your face), but you wish it was just a bit bigger. In my case, it's usually caused by watching pr0n - where do they find those guys? More importantly, how do those guys buy pants?! Normally when you see an appendage that large on someone, it has an elbow... but I digress.
Each of us has our own coping mechanisms. For some it's cars and trucks; for others it might be big screen TVs, stereo equipment, power tools, firearms - I'm sure someone might even argue that blogging is a way of compensating for a perceived lack elsewhere. (Don't say it. Just don't, ok?)
Raksha recently brought it to my attention that back in the 60s, DC comics explored this issue about as openly as any comic could. In Doom Patrol #70, they featured the ultimate in penile extensions...

Er....I need a hug. Badly.
I'm suprised that was a DC comic though. Just how did this get published during the "Comic Code" era? Or get past the editors? Raksha?
The comments on the forum (see link and scroll down) were asking the same questions. I also felt sad for the commentors who asked, "what does "MTF" mean?"
That was hilarious...not as disturbing for me (no penis) as for you guys (with penis)just hi-lar-i-ous!
Wow. Words I never thought I'd see in a comic. And definitely from a time I would NOT have expected, either.
that's some messed up but funny comics!
Gives a whole new meaning to the old phrase "If you're feeling froggy - Jump"
Thanks Mayren, for making me spit my coffee all over my desk :)
