[edit] Tell you what's classic...

..that the article on phallus is an article in need of expansion!Rolinator 07:49, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

it's certainly a stub —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 172.207.202.235 (talkcontribs) 2 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Objects that appear phallic"

I propose this section to be revamped/removed. It appears to be either a joke, or either some highly POV phallus-obsession. Wanka 18:56, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

Perhaps we ought to find sources for some of them. I'm sure many (especially the more recent ones) have been discussed elsewhere. jdb ❋ (talk) 20:20, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

Both Gherkin & Swiss Re are improper names. Might as well use Gherkin Ghosts&empties 02:11, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Guitar and flag? Wow, a testament to some people's stupidity. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 129.10.214.179 (talk • contribs).

Maybe they meant "flagpole"? But I tend to see Wanka's point; this list seems kind of juvenile. JakeApple 16:10 26 February 2006 (UTC)

The Russian Orthodox Church (House of Worship) should not be used as an example of a phallic symbol! Please correct, and replace with something else, another photo... http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/3/3e/Godunov_ostrov.jpg/180px-Godunov_ostrov.jpg

[edit] No mention of Priapus.

I am saddened. Should I add this, or was it left out for a good reason? -Kasreyn 08:25, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

Go for it. There already is an article on Priapus but it should be mentioned here and linked and all that good stuff. Go for it. Carptrash

[edit] Female version?

Wouldn't vulval or vulvallic be the feminine word/equillivant for phallus/phallic? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 203.214.17.26 (talk • contribs) 1 May 2006 (UTC)

  • Vulval or vaginal works, I believe. -Anonymous
  • no there is another term used i cant think of it or find it at the moment though --voodoom 07:03, 20 June 2006 (UTC)


[edit] More contemporary-ness needed

Needs more modern stuff, some psychological dude probably said something about the fact that kids draw them all over other kids' pencilcases at school, I'm sure if you looked hard enough you could find something interesting about modern examples. I don't really care if this article is rubbish or not so I cba to find anything about it/write it in, I just came on it for a laugh so dont expect me to do anything about its current state of poorness.
