nsfw Why are folks seemingly more offended by chimpanzee genitals than they are by the genitals of most other mammals?

Asked by Blondesjon (34000points) February 22nd, 2012

It just occurred to me that chimps, as well their simian brethren, are the only mammals I see edited with a diaper or blurring when they are shown in the media.

Any thoughts?

Because their dicks and shit kind of remind us of our own, I guess?

Is that in America, this blurring activities of genitals of chimps?
I have never seen it.
In AFHV (as aired in Holland) I see pixelated toddler behinds, but blurry monkey bums…..?

I’ve never seen them blurred out. Then again I can’t ever recall even seeing chimpanzee penis. I’m sure it’s the reason @Fiddle_Playing_Creole_Bastard said, they’ve gotta be really similar to ours. And you know, we don’t show the male penis, EVER, outside of pornography!

@deni, maybe it is just that @Fiddle_Playing_Creole_Bastard is hung like a chimp. Sorry, I couldn’t resist.

I can’t believe some people go ape over this.

I always thought putting diapers on chimps and stuff was to make em look cute, in a type of slightly patronizing way. Never thought people were offended by the genitals, but then, go figure. :/

This has never crossed my mind.
I don’t make the genital connection at all, only the soiling connection.
I doubt a chimp can find the bathroom backstage on the Leno show.
Poor chimps, they and their genitals should be swinging from the trees in their native habitats. Apes in diapers are depressing.

Seriously????? How can a chimps genitals be worse than horse, elephant, rhino, etc.

Oh, wait…maybe they just can’t get diapers on an elephant to stay.

@blueiiznh Horses dongs creep me out. They seem almost unnecessarily large.

TexasDude's avatar

@bkcunningham hey now, I’m packing at least a good four inches. Not many women can handle that kind of diameter.

Coloma's avatar

@deni Well..being a horse owner over the years you have never truly experienced a horses penis until you have to clean it’s sheath. lol Yep, it’s painful when little pebbles and dirt get under a males sheath. lol

blueiiznh's avatar

@deni but they hve a large task at hand. Shoe size also has no bearing.

Coloma's avatar

Haha…well, geldings are much more laid back about their penises than stallions. haha

This thread is just bananas now.

@Michael_Huntington I gave a serious response, then all you nuts started monkeying around.

cookieman's avatar

I thought they were naturally blurry.

Monkey’s are always beating off. It’s unsightly.

TexasDude's avatar

And blasting themselves with piss.

woodcutter's avatar

Themselves?

Jackson’s chimp would wear one to fend off Michael’s constant sexual advances, yes that’s right, he was forever blowing bubbles….it’s alleged.
