Priapus

My father bemoaned to me today the use of tax dollars to study behavioral correlation with penis size among gay men.  Not shockingly, men who have above-average cocks tend to identify as tops, while men with below-average penis size tend to identify as bottoms. While it's true that the organization that performed the study receives NIH grants, those grants are for tuition-like expenses related to AIDS research and weren't actually used to perform this study.



But, thank you, study, for noting oh-so-astutely the social pressures that can effect identification as top or bottom.  Priapus would be thrilled that you confirmed his status as sexual dominator (although I note that historians tend to assert that the classical world found smaller penises more attractive, if not more...er...pungent).  Permit me to submit a new query for your investigation.

I heard an amazing hook-up story from a female friend with what could only be termed a glorious ass.  I'll call her Pria for now.

Pria connects with a male friend of a friend at an event located in a hotel where she has a room, and she takes him upstairs.  As she shuts the door behind them he whips her around, lifts her dress, and starts tossing her salad. "I mean...if you wanna do that...that's fine with me...just don't kiss me after," she recounts, with more than a small smile on her face.  Fortunately no further kissing appears to have been requested.  He goes at the tossing for a while, and they continue removing clothing, engage in some more traditional petting, and make their way to the bed. To her surprise, as Pria begins to lay on her back, expecting to get penetrated, no doubt, she is AGAIN flipped over and tossing begins anew. This dude tossed twice.  That salad was hella dressed.

So I ask you, study authors, to analyze this man who flies in the face of every thought I've ever had about eating ass: (1) that it would never be totally voluntarily - at least some measure of situational coercion would have to take place and (2) that one would never toss the salad of a person whom they'd just met (honestly how would you know they weren't on the verge of an IBS flare-up?) Top or bottom?  Thx. Friends, tell me of the axis orientation of those who have tossed your salad, won't you?

    I have to say that it would take more than losing at least 2 of my 5senses (3 if I have to keep my eyes open) and some sort of ransom negotiation for the life of a puppy(a very cute one, perhaps a Burmese Mountain Dog) at stake to get me down there. That said, I have certainly come across a couple who were more than willing..er...preoccupied with this salacious act.

    Interestingly, they were both male, closet cases, overly masculine, and not interested in getting off themselves- just wanted to watch me. This is all of course based on limited encounters with those dedicated to this sport. I'm sure that a quick search would find you a popular device for those who like nothing more than to chomp at the hairy O in their free time- basically a toilet seat providing easy access. Fits nicely next to a sling.

    Concerning the study, there are actually a lot of connections that can be made for gay men and the size of their penis. I've been told before that studies have shown that gay men are bigger than those who prefer the bearded clam. From observation - in many non-sexual ways - I believe that there may be a correlation between those with HIV and larger penises. This would be in contrast to the theory of those with larger units assuming the active role, as that would imply decreased contraction. Though, I'm guessing not due to increased promiscuity that comes with the territory of having a piece to be admired.

    "Size was unrelated to condom use, frequency of sex partners, HIV status, or recent diagnoses of HBV, HCV, gonorrhea/Chlamydia/
    urinary tract infections, and syphilis. Men with above average penises were more likely to report HPV and HSV-2 (Fisher’s exact p ≤ .05). Men with below average penises were significantly more likely to identify as “bottoms” (anal receptive) and men with above average penises were significantly more likely to identify as tops (anal insertive). Finally, men with below average penises fared significantly worse than other men on three measures of psychosocial adjustment. Though most men felt their penis size was average, many fell outside this “norm.” The disproportionate number of viral skin-to-skin STIs (HSV-2 and HPV) suggest size may play a role in condom slippage/breakage. Further, size played a significant role in sexual positioning and psychosocial adjustment."
