Japan Photo Guide

This is why Japan rules, and why all other countries suck! Except Canada and a few other places.

Great photos and information, I just don’t get why you would feel so uncomfortable about being seen in the presence of penis replicas. If the festival involved exposing your own penis to the world I could understand, because this would involve making a very private part of you public, but what’s the big deal about a wooden phallus? It is representative of part of the human body, and a very important part – without which your parents would not have been able to conceive you – what is there to be embarrassed or shy about? Indeed, the most attractive feature of your photos is that they show people having a good time and enjoying themselves in the presence of penises – and why not – after all, as anyone who has one or has regular contact with one, they can be a lot of fun!

This website http://www.custombobble.com can create yourself + a a penis replicas side by side…. LOL

Oh no sex is bad!
Let’s nuke them again!

Seriously, in some Asian countries (not China) population is not growing, and sex is obviously the way to increase population.

I can only think that they have a much healthier view of sex than any of us western people.

We seem to do a lot of sex and flatulence jokes because, face it, we live feeling shame of our bodies and biological process.

They don’t seem to see anything wrong with the fact that people have penises and vaginas, and they are right!

waw, very nice pics fof very creative event. No festival like this in my country.

Overall, societies that have good sex education have lower rates of teenage pregnancy and more awareness about pregnancy, HIV, and other STD’s. Simply put – if you expose your children even at a young age that body parts are to be CELEBRATED, and RESPECTED and HONORED rather than SHAMED – they are more likely to approach sex in their own lives with more fun yet also reverence and respect.
In many older societies, girls would be married and or pregnant by age 14 or 15. These days, it’s hard to find a 10 year old kid who doesnt know what sex is – however – many of these kids will have obscure back-door information from friends and peers that include many mytghs about it.
In tribal societies, often kids know from a very young age that it’s something that adults do, considering they are often sleeping in the same hut at the same time of it occuring@ We may think that’s disgusting and weird, but kids aren’t going to get away doing it when they sleep under the same room either every night. They would think us weird for hiding in the shadows about it all. This is more a choice of personal ethics and morals, and just like others can’t push our morals onto us, we cannot push our values, ethics and morals onto any other person or society.
Kids should be encouraged to ask questions, to be exposed to know what sex is and what it is all about – after all – awareness is the biggest key in prevention of unwanted pregnancies and STD’s – so in essence – the festival DOES increase fertility and reduce risk of infection – by providing a forum for people to LEARN.

Just the other day I was checking out a kids game website for my nieces. I found a predator in the chat room – caught red handed and I reported him. What I really liked is the fact that a 10 year old and a 12 year old on there at the time were well educated by their parents about sex, about predators, and about online etiquette, what to watch out for…. if they were left in the dark, perhaps these kids would have been gullible enough to be taken in by a pedophile.

Protect your children – expose them to awareness about sex and what it is and why people do it.

It’s very surprise.

very hot and very fun. japan totally rocks

Hahaha, that’s incredible, SO impressive!

puahaa… gslilere yedircen bunları :D

Well …. I read all the posts … Eastern and western views

I am not going into the details of this festival origin or its purpose

I just want to tell you people that ALLAH who is the creator of humans dislike to expose our body
You people will say Why? its natural

My answer is that just check the ultimate results ….consider the social structure of your societies … rapidly declining in moral values

but we are rich in this areas …
there is some value of GOD sayings … we just obey GOD … if GOD commended us not to expose your hidden parts then we should try to understand it …. should not develop our own designs for these matters..

OH YEAH! This festival is AWESOME! Check out the video we made a few years ago in the above link.

I LOVE JAPAN! :O)

HAHAHA! All the years I have heard of Japan and read about Japan and looked upon Japanese culture I have never in my life thought of a festival of the penis!
The vaginal shaped buns and penis lollipops were a bit too much to handle, I couldn’t stop laughing until I saw the young girl with a hand above her head from a guy that looks like her father sucking on a penis sucker.. poor little girl, poor children.

still enjoy this festival, wait next year.

If the muslims are so perfect, how come they go to Bombay, India and Phillipines to have sex with prostitutes. Christian religion never teaches or advocates outrageous sexual behaviour. The free press and the liberal media promotes it. No religion in the world advocates any kind of sexual perversions. However, it is the people who profess to be practicing it makes a bad name for their religion. In Muslim countries women are treated a second class citizens, having many wives and lot more children. Muhammad had 23 wives and Christ had none and He kept his life clean and practiced self control. He is the true model for us
