Small Japanese Penis
"A hundred thousand revelers come here to celebrate one thing: the male organ."
Every year on the first Sunday of April in Kawasaki, Japan, one might cross paths with a peculiar sight — a succession of enormous erect penises parading down the street under the strength of men in traditional female garb.
This year, photographer B.A. Van Sise was in attendance of the annual Festival of the Steel Phallus , a regional tradition dating back to the 17th century that today serves as a platform for the benefit of HIV research. Here, Van Sise shares his experience and some of the history behind what is perhaps the most phallic festival in the world.
Early April in Kawasaki, Japan, is set aside for the Kanamara Matsuri, or the festival of the steel phallus, in which a hundred thousand revelers come here to celebrate one thing: the male organ. Home to the Kanayama Jinja Shrine, Kawasaki, southwest of Tokyo, has been closely tied to the male anatomy for centuries, due to a persistent local legend, so its famed Shinto shrine to the relic of a steel phallus was, well, erected.
Legend holds that a jealous, red-faced, sharped-tooth demon hid in the vagina of a goddess and then bit off, to their great surprise, the penises of her first two husbands. History forgets to mention why she failed to warn the second guy.
Finally a third, more determined suitor, a blacksmith, created an iron phallus that broke the demon's teeth; the man won over the beautiful woman while the demon presumably returned back to the ether to receive quite the lecture from his orthodontist.
The shrine is humble but has stood the test of time. Made of old stone and boasting a small but pretty network of traditional orange torii gates, it was built in roughly 698 CE — but is now more famously home to the festival — in prim and proper Japan, an unusual but charming celebration of the sacred and the profane.
While beautifully frocked Shinto priests in the shrine celebrate the thousands-year-old god, long worshiped by prostitutes fearing disease and pilgrims worried for their fertility, a different sort of celebration is going on outside, as tens, if not hundreds of thousands of partiers take to the streets.
Revelers carry penis lollipops (funny to look at, but not particularly tasty), phallic vegetables, and enough whimsical toys to stock a year's worth of Las Vegas bachelorette parties. They enjoy them all while snapping not-quite-ready-for-Instagram selfies and watching a parade of all of Kawasaki's manliest men, struggling to carry a bunch of giant junk through the street.
Local families and businesses work for months to make the enormous genitals carried on the shoulders of teams of men through Kawasaki's tight streets. Three, in total, are carried around town; two are of metal and one, true to Japan's contemporary anime-loving culture, is of the cheery, bubblegum-hued cartoon variety, and lofted by 18 fellows wearing glitter and fantastic makeup.
For the prudish, it might be hard to see, but it does have its benefits: These days, sales from the festival — penis clothing, candy, food, toys — rake in gobs of money every year, put duly to work toward HIV research.
This year marks a half century for the festival in its modern form. Visitors wanting to see it themselves, and unafraid to face the throbbing masses, can make it to Kawasaki from Tokyo in an easy day trip on the first Sunday of April, any year, and see for themselves the giant phalluses of Kawasaki — and the many men who get them up.

Celebrating penises is a real thing. And while Westerners are still being shy about it, the people of Kawasaki, Japan, have been embracing dicks at the annual Festival of the Steel Phallus (Kanamara Matsuri) since 1977.
Penis-worshipers parade through the streets of the small a suburb of Tokyo, carrying candy, lollipops, balloons, purses and even dick-shaped carved radishes, all in the shape of male genitals. The festival’s biggest draw includes portable worshiping shrines of gigantic pink, orange and black phalluses floating through the crowd.
The festival’s origin can be traced back to the 17th Century , when a local blacksmith constructed a meter-long “Steel Phallus” to honor Shinto, the goddess of fertility and childbirth.
Dick jokes and fun aside, the festival has also served a noble purpose—to raise awareness for HIV prevention. And that’s something we can definitely get behind.

Asian penises are generally smaller than Caucasian ones, each measuring, on average, shorter than 10cm with a full erection.
Q. I am a 23-year-old man and I have never had sex due to a lack of confidence regarding the size of my penis.
It is so slim that I cannot put on condoms. It is about 11.5cm long when erect.
When I ejaculate, a clear sticky fluid flows out.
But I have not really seen my sperm.
A. Asian penises are generally smaller than Caucasian ones, each measuring, on average, shorter than 10cm with a full erection. Hence, a penis with a length of about 11.5cm when fully erect is considered normal.
This length is also sufficient for vaginal penetration during sexual intercourse.
However, the length is not the most important consideration. Its functional ability is more crucial.
It should be turgid enough during erection for vaginal penetration and subsequent ejaculation.
If you cannot put on a condom, either your technique is wrong or the penis is not erect enough for the condom to slip on.
Make sure that you know the way to wear a condom and that you have a full erection before attempting to put it on.
Regarding your question on ejaculation, one cannot see sperm in the semen or ejaculate with the naked eye.
In assessing the health of the sperm, the colour of the ejaculate is not that important, unless it is blood-stained.
The colour does not give any indication of sperm quality.
A semen analysis is required to see the quality of the sperm.
If there is concern regarding abnormal semen quality, please visit a urologist who can do a semen analysis for you.
He can also do a physical check-up on the penis and review your sexual history and condom usage.
If need be, he can start you on certain kinds of medication, such as Viagra, Cialis and Levitra, to improve the quality of your erection.
