Romans believed the phallus was the embodiment of masculine power and brought about protection and good fortune, so depictions have been found throughout Roman culture
Roman Britain, when men were men and women appreciated it.
Since it's granite and marble sticking straight up, it's likely meant to represent something a good bit more virile than the half-meter horizontal one in southern Spain.
In Ancient Rome it wasn’t unusual to have bi-sexual men, especially those in powerful positions. I saw this on YouTube, no one really thought anything of it, men married to have children and then would have affairs with boys or other men. Yet all of that was accepted as normal. So when did that attitude change, my guess is when the Catholic Church was founded, yet those in the priest hood continued to have sex. Hypocrisy and Mendacity at it’s finest.
Aw, c’mon, man! That’s Larry the Cucumber taking a nap.
