When garishly-colored,  giant representations of female genitalia are proudly hung outside of theaters hosting "The Vagina Monologues", anyone who objects is instantly labeled "hateful", "anti-woman", "heterosexist" etc. etc.

However, it seems that anyone who has an objection to something that only looks like male genitalia if you have an EXTREMELY wild imagination is taken quite seriously and any objections to it are treated with the gravest respect.

You can find this kind of symbolism anywhere you look for it.

What do you think Muslim spirals on buildings, the Pope’s hat, and a hundred other relgious symbols signify, and that’s just religion.

Some of those people in Keester Oregon have got over-active imaginations.

It no more looks like a phallic symbol than the Washington Monument. Some people have a really warped imagination.

I guess I have an extremely wild imagination! Our local library put up these same thingies. I pointed them out to my wife, and she cracked up!

Sometimes a post is just a post.

“The city is looking into retrofitting the posts with metal collars and chains that run between them, “
That would be the “San Francisco style.”

People who take offense at things like this are normally paranoid busybodies with way too much time on their hands. However, in this case, I’m thinking they have a point. Those things really are just wrong.

The city is looking into retrofitting the posts with metal collars and chains that run between them,

And they think that collaring and chaining these "symbols' will stop the debate.

This should fun to watch!

Maybe it was the vinyl weather covers that city employees would roll down over the posts that got everyone's attention?

I've got an idea -- maybe integrate some water art -- an occasional fountain from each one at random intervals?
