Penis ornaments. Why? Why the fuck not? Shout out to @CelloMike@lemmy.world for the amazing wooden starship model.

I have the perfect place for you to make a pilgrimage to. In Sicily near the coastal beach resort town of Taormina there is a town atop of the nearby mountain called Castelmola. The trek up the mountain is amazing and the views are incredible. Your reward for the journey is in that town there is a bar called Bar Turrisi, this is your new bucket list destination.

Alternatively, they could go to one of the "penis temples" in Japan. I know that there is more than one, because a Google search turned up this one, and I have been to another in southern Osaka Prefecture.

The one that I went to was actually devoted to fertility and appeasing The souls of aborted/miscarried babies, but it had its fair share of penises as well.

I've too considered making a shelve for my penis shaped "ornaments."

Shame to put something so aesthetically pleasing hidden away in a drawer - especially in my private bedroom where no outsider ever goes to.

But there's no penis on the wooden starship :(
