Admit it, at least once in your life you’ve wondered about this.

And no, it’s not because marble is cold.

“Ancient Greece was a highly masculinist culture,”
photographer Ingrid Berthon-Moine, who created a
series in which she captured images of ancient
statues’ testicles, told Hyperallergic. “They
favoured ‘small and taut’ genitals, as opposed to
big sex organs, to show male self-control in
matters of sexuality. Today, the modern users as in
commerce, cinema, and advertising converted it
into a mass commodity telling us about
domination and desirability, size matters and the
bigger, the better.”

She’s got a point. I’ve yet to meet a modern man who wanted to be regarded as small and taut.

Art historian Ellen Oredsson added on the same
topic that people with larger penises were seen to
be “foolish, lustful, and ugly”, while Ancient Greek
playwright Aristophanes writing of the ideal male
traits as “a gleaming chest, bright skin, broad
shoulders, tiny tongue, strong buttocks, and a
little prick.”

There you have it.

Although according to Aristophanes, you might have a hard time finding it.
