THINGS THAT START FROM THE BROKEN TEETH OF A DEMON......

In the long history of men, we have managed to propel ourselves from the mere creatures of cave-dwelling to the ones that soar throughout the sky, reaching the universe beyond our own home planet. We have evolved ourselves greatly with each and every civilizations we built on, and we have an infinite potentials and possibilities that we will continue to evolve on in the future to improve ourselves even more in a scale that none of us could have imagined at the moment.

And yet, despite our accomplishments as human beings, there are just some things that we do that sometimes weird. The human minds are something mysterious indeed--at one time they are capable of great things, and at the other they are capable of constructing so seemingly silly, so seemingly weird, that we just could not help but to think "What the hell are they thinking?" If we were to make a list about all the weird stuff mankind has thought of during its long history of existence, the amount of bullet points required would be immeasurably tremendous. Nevertheless, the following convention of men truly deserved a place on that list... high, high, high on the list.

Ladies & gentlemen, I present to you: The Penis Festival in Japan.

"The Penis Festival" is not its official name, although anyone can hardly find a more appropriate name for it. It is called, "Kanamara Matsuri", or "Festival of the Steel Phallus", and it is an event held annually every March 15th, in Aichi Prefecture, Japan. Some said it is held initially to commemorate the defeat of a Female Demon that has a weird hobby of munching men genitals... of course, this is a HUGE problem for men all over Japan, and so a heroic blacksmith forged a fake steel penis to fool the Demon. As a result, the Demon was defeated as all of her teeths were broken because she tried to munch the steel penis......

Regardless, right now the festival is hold to honor and celebrate fertility and such, and that is partly the reason why it is held in March 15th, as spring represents the month of fertility. It is also being used as the venue for promoting Safe Sex programs... after all, what better place to promote Safe Sex other than the one where you can see, literally, huge penis carried by lots of people? :D

It is an event not limited to adults, as all people from all ranges of ages are allowed to participate in the proceedings. Young, adult, elderly, the locals, the tourists, and even transvestites, all are invited to participate in all the fun. If you are so desired, you can purchase various penis-related items that I am willing to bet is not available in your local Wal-Mart, such as Penis Candies & Lolly pops, etc, etc.

Anybody interested to visit the festival? Do not forget to carry your own Penis-related props if you want to join in the fun, and make sure you are not arrested in the Airport terminal first XD

Best Regards,
