Agreed, what a colorful metaphor. I was pondering how that would work on the forum and imagined all the men on the forum trying to draw the largest ASCII text penis. As hard as I would laugh at such a thing, this probably isn't the place for it.

And I agree with Evie about the stereotypes, sometimes women enter the penis contest too. Just look at the Smurfit-Stone building in Chicago; A giant Vagina in the sky next to all the huge phallic symbols we know as sky scrapers. Rumor has it that it was designed as a statement from a feminist architect.
