Felipe

I am not sure I see the point in this image. I don't get off on images of naked men but can see how some are 'beautiful/intruiging/disturbing' images of the male form. I don't feel that this falls into that category. Most images of women are of the female form, of which the female genitalia are a part. Not many are straight on literal pictures of this part alone with nop aparent purpose. Were it not for the alternative process, this could otherwise be from a biology book. To me it is just a picture of a man's c0ck. Sorry.

During the making of this photograph, did you stop and say "okay, hold it now" ?

589 views...a new record?

Felipe should be really proud of his willy, as it will go down in the history of APUG. That hurts a bit my male ego, not to have a crowd unresting, historical icon of a pecker.
Artistically, I really like it. Its a strong portrait (as much as anyone's hand or foot is) and his hands on the crotch is a typical macho pose that is very common in for example John Wayne westerns or Super Hero comics.
The man being hispanic, the portrait could speak about patriarchical culture, or the stereotype of the macho latin lover.

Now at 632. Wow. certainly a personal best. Even the previous controversial photo I posted only managed about 350 in several weeks. I'm at 632 in about 14 hours.

I don't think I could have handled looking through the grain focuser in the darkroom without puking on the paper. There's an alternative process for ya! Chunky toning.

Mark- it was a contact print... but why would it make you puke? Far less repulsive than your avatar, IMHO.

730 views and not one comment from a female , I guess man are the only one interested in looking at another man, even a nude of a woman did not get as much attention..., but got responces from both sides.

Dare to peck at that thought?

I'm sure some comment about the nature of desire could be made here... part of it true, part inaccurate. To some degree, people only look at what they want to look at, and they only respond to things that touch them emotionally, so, it could be interpreted to mean that there are a lot of homosocially frustrated men on this website. And those that react violently to it, well... they're definitely fighting some inner demon.

I'd also venture to add that a good part of the hit count is from sheer train-wreck phenomenon - everyone just has to stare on their way past, even if they know what they see will distrub them.

Ok... Ilya1963... wanna know why there are no women commenting on this? Because it's just one more exhibit of the juvenile behaviour of men. So... up until now, we are just sitting back, rolling our eyes, shaking our heads, thinking "please grow up."

Interesting that it seems to be OK to make comments about THIS model without the photographer going into hysterical convulsions...
