Statue of David - One More Question

[Jimj]

We were having a discussion at the office and this issue came up. I mentioned this forum and agreed to post the question here. It is in regard to the famous nude statue of David. Most people who comment about his penis size say it is small. Ladies, when you view the statue, do you consider his penis small? Any other comments are welcome.

The thing I always notice is that the statue shows him uncircumcised, which is funny, since King David was Jewish.

The circumcision thing was probably added in the last 1000 years like most of the crap religions nowadays have. (Sorry I haven't done any deep research on Judaism)

About the statue.. I haven't seen but one penis so I can't tell haha

I want to know what kind of office you work at where this is a typical conversation =)

He's a grower, not a show-er.

If you look at the statue of David from the appropriate angle rather than from below, as most all of us see him, you can read fear in his eyes. His penis is shriveled because he's facing the giant Goliath and he's scared shitless.

He's surely in fear or just out of a cold swim. But most notable is his nice buns.

[Petit Papillon]

AT LEAST he has arms Venus de Milo is armless ... That's what concerns me

You must have been having an extremely good look, to have noticed that lol

I reckon it looks small, but then they grow don't they?

[Sonrisa]

it is hard to tell unless the penis is erect.

Fact is, as many times as I have seen pics of the statue, I never noticed he wasn't circumsized until vashti pointed it out. So I googled up some pics and zoomed in and sure enough he isn't. Part of the length is foreskin, so his penis itself is much smaller than I realized. I have, however still seen smaller.

The replica I saw was eye-level. Even my kids noticed.

Robot - circumcision is an ancient ritual and is mentioned many times in the bible, even in Genesis, which was believed to have been completed in the 5th century BCE. It was most certainly NOT added in the last 1000 years.

Excuse me vash, have you read the old versions, or just the revisions from the last century?

The Jews have not always circumcised the way it is done today. The old method involved simply cutting the 'excess' foreskin hanging past the glans. That was pre-Hellenistic times, though.

Anyway, I am stuck on this question. Which 'famous' statue of David are we referring to? There are millions of statues of David, and quite a few of them are pretty famous. I was thinking either Donatello or Michelangelo. Which is it?
I can tell you all about the penis size. I had to study this shit for years.
