I had an aunt who for a while lived in the Philippines. She had many elephants decorating her home. Must be a Filipino thing.
I don’t think it is a Filipino thing, although from what I saw, things with penises were a popular subject, ranging from a nearly naked negrito hunter to a grinning figure taking a bath in a removable wooden barrel which when removed, revealed a wooden replica to spring forth.
LOL, yes. Penises were a popular thing. I was living next to Olongapo City, and that is probably what sold there.
