    Did you know that we have a surviving example of ancient Egyptian porn? Look up the Turin papyrus. (NSFW, obviously.)

        I assume it’s symbolic. Hierarchical proportion is common in Egyptian art, so maybe the size represents the man’s extraordinary virility and sexual prowess.

        Either that or the artist was into huge cocks.

          that’s interesting, thank you. It could also symbolize how many pain receptors there are hense it feeling more important/sensitive. Though its probs just huge cock theory
