Phallic Symbol
Speaking of Floroda...

I remember seeing the addition to the Florida capitol building being erected in the 70's. As it neared completion, I began to LOL at the fact that it seemed to be a pretty darned blatant phallic symbol!

gojo, don't be mean now. I clicked on your url, and I wasn't exactly looking at a Phalic symbol as promised. Let's all shout together, down with promises, up with Phalic symbols. Show me the money!

RE: Phallic Symbol
geographically speaking, florida is a peninsula making it naturally phallic in appearance....

(i tried to make a joke and spell it
p-e-n-i-s-u-l-a, but it would not allow innapropriate language here)

RE: Phallic Symbol
Here is a question that has plagued the students of the U of M for decades. Is the quazi-tower of Pillsbury Hall more phallic or Mamalic (???) Boobular???
Check out this web page. Particularly the 5th picture under the heading "Materials."

RE: Phallic Symbol
Oldie, it could go either way. If that were a boob, it would be a double "D". If it's a phalic symbol, it's better than Michael Angelo's David, lol.

phallic? mamalic? boobular??
lol!!!
this thread has taken me to a new level of architecture awareness....
if those terms were applied to geologic/natural formations would the grand tetons be boobular then?

RE: Phallic Symbol
I-am-om, would the tetons be boobular? Yes, they remind me of my 2nd grade school teacher that wore what I called pointy bras.

My other teacher wore a push up bra. I wondered why one woman was letting herself pop out of her bra, like it didn't fit and if the pointy one had pointy breasts that contoured the bra. I also wondered why the male married gym teacher kept going to visit my buxom female married math teacher. I figured it out.

LH: The male married gym teacher was visiting the buxom female married math teacher to find out what was the square root of 69. Which I believe is ate (eight) something!

Check out Grover's guide to campus phallic symbols:

The best one is in Ypsilanti, MI. Definitely circumcised.

RE: Phallic Symbol
What about the "Leaning Tower of Pee-sa"?
I'd say that's pretty phallic.

Galileo and Newton were ahead of their times.

What was that, anyway?
Balls? Feathers?
Telescopes?

mel, the leaning tower is a phalic symbol. That is what the president's privates were described as, leaning to one side, lol.

Ok; I tryed, can anyone find a pic. of Procter & Gamble's headguaters in Cincinnati? Talk about buildings that look like breasts....

Did anyone else hear about the movement a few years ago change the name "Grand Teatons"(sp?) because it is french for "big boobs". God bless those french fur traders.

By the way, is 'french fur trader' some sort of froggy pimp?

RE: Phallic Symbol
Mel, I don't remember what Flowers said, but I just saw Paula Jones on the show called The View. To show what Clinton looked like, she showed her finger bending towards the top.

That show is so stupid. When they asked Paula what was different about the president's peni$, they did a close up on her face to show her lips very clearly as she spoke. Instead, she showed what she meant by using her finger. The camera men just barely panned out quick enough catch her during the re-enactment.

You've mentioned who designed this thing, but who erected it?

And what's keeping it up anyway, bolt and stud, or tongue in groove?

RE: Phallic Symbol
i-am-om > I don?t speak french but I think teton is a french work for breast but in the masculine form.

You guys thing about sex to much. I thought it was just me that had that problem. But every tower looks like a peni$. Even I don?t go that far. But I prefer to use the entire man not just lower brain. However it is a really important part.

RE: Phallic Symbol
A journalist once asked Freud; (paraphrasing here)
If you believe that everyting that is at least twice as long as it is wide is a phallic symbol, what does that cigar in your mouth signify?

Freud's embaresed(sp?) reply;
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
