It appears that the Japanese are highly focused.

At first I though it was a major Photochop event. Then I remembered that this is Japan we're talking about...

When I was in SF Chinatown, a store had a big wooden 'wood' in the window display.

Oh yeah, my gf and some of our friend visited SF for the first time three weeks ago, we walked around Chi-town, and I pointed the woods out. They coudn't stop laughing.

This sort of festival is\was common in non-Judeo-based religions. For example the Romans, Greeks, and Egyptians had similar celebratons. I think it is unfortunate that the celebration of sexuality and fertility are repressed in the US culture.

I've been in Kawasaki, Japan quite a few moons ago. I still have video tape of the "festival" that I attended. It was fun...

Ahh yes, the annual 'penis envy' festival. During this festival, the Japanese worship the Gods and their ancestors to bless them with 'big American penis' for future generations.
