It's called the Kanamara Matsuri and it's a celebration of the symbol of male fertility, the penis. People flock from all over Japan and indeed the world to visit this fun celebration. Most notable to me is the lighthearted joy and spirit of fun. Truly the lack of moral outrage and expression of fear and revulsion at the sight of an erect penis can only be attributed to the lack of Puritanism that is so inherent in Western culture, particularly America.

It's fun and that's easy to see that just by looking at the below photos.

Or as Monty Python would say, it's *staggeringly* dull.

(27,247 posts)It actually spells out the Japanese words for male and female genitals . Even in, ahem, Japanese men's magazines, those words are usually written with a letter missing, like マOコ instead of マンコ
