It's probably the same obsession modern cultures have with the nude male form - only we make 'em with HUGE donkey-dongs.

It's probably not 'cuz they're really like that - but I would contribute it to the level of cultural obsession with male genitals.

well...
I used to live in the mediterranean area, and well... I dated quite a bit.
All I can say is, it is a genetic thing. They probably just worked with the material they had.

I think the obsession is yours.

The reason they did that was because the sculptor/artist wanted you to see the bigger picture..not the penis.
