More recently, anthropological studies sponsored in part by the Large Penis Support Group ([www.lpsg.org]) have discovered that certain pre-industrial autochthonous communities in both South America and Africa have long-established mythological traditions which attribute various astrological phenomena to the penile erections of their deities. Likewise, the !Kung people of the Kalahari desert believe that solar eclipses are the result of the arousal of their omnipotent sky-god known !Xu, and celebrate this sacred event by exclaiming "!Xuǀneǁaǯɔːɡǃeĩǃkuŋǀkʌmaːǀgu", which literally means "!Xu's big black tree-snake kill sun, give night!". (See [web.archive.org] if you wish to conduct your own translation). However, as solar eclipses only occur between 2-5 times each year, the !Kung believe that the infrequency of !Xu's arousal results from his goddess-wife's refusal to engage in intercourse, and as a result, !Kung women spurn all sexual advances by their husbands that do not coincide with an eclipse. Unfortunately, this resulting low rate of copulation is a prime factor in the endangerment of the tribe, as it contributes to its low birth-rate and gradual depopulation. (The !Kung have apparently not considered the possibility that !Xu may simply be suffering from erectile dysfunction, and could possibly benefit from the use of a male enhancement product. However, as high-speed D.S.L. connections are somewhat rare in the Kalahari Desert, very few members of the tribe currently possess Hotmail accounts, and thus do not enjoy the privilege of learning about these fine products through the informational messages that are delivered, almost daily and free of charge, to all Microsoft email account holders).

On a more modern note, according to Wikipedia, it was a large black penis that was the root cause of the 1999 Southern Brazil blackout, which left 90 million people in the dark for hours: see [en.wikipedia.org]! However, though this was initially rumoured during the first few weeks of investigations, it was later confirmed that the offending penis did not, in fact, belong to a black T-girl from Rio, who allegedly became erect while climbing the O Cristo Redentor Christ statue on Corcovado Mountain).

Anyways, I just hoped this has cleared things up, if anyone happened to be confused about the terminology I employed in my initial comment. Reply
