Description

It’s perhaps not the most subtle approach to breaking down one of the last remaining taboos of male culture (sorry for the obvious oxymoron) – to wander up and down the streets of London with “I want to talk about penises” on your back – and neither was it the most productive, but you have to give Lawrence Barraclough full marks for trying. The celebrated owner of a shorter-than-average penis (as revealed when he had a plaster cast of it made during his last dick-related documentary My Penis And I) will clearly stop at nothing to persuade men to talk about that most sensitive of subjects – their tackle.So did Barraclough succeed? Why is penis size such a universally avoided subject whenever more than one man is gathered together pretty much anywhere you can think of? And is this review just an excuse for me to type the word ‘penis’ as many times as possible?If the size of their penis is such a big deal for so many men, why do so few of us ever talk to each other about it?You have to admire Lawrence Barraclough’s sheer nerve for even asking the question. I imagine, like me, most blokes watching this programme felt distinctly uncomfortable even hearing the question, even before thinking about what the answer might be. I mean, it’s just not done, is it? As one chap observed later in the film, you learn at an early age when standing at the urinal that you simply do not look. Check out the sample video, it look very interesting. I have not watch this myself, but I will soon. Anyway, enjoy!
