I imagine they must be epic. I mean, their freaking hearts weigh over half a ton.
In Moby Dick , Melville describes the Sperm Whale penis as so large thaty its skin can fit over a man. (In the chapter entitled “The Cassock”)
There used to be a picture on Snopes purporting to show a whale penis, but it’s gone now (Not the one of a whale shark that’s now up).
IIRC, Uncle Cecil compared it to a telephone pole, at one point.
Numbers I’ve read range from six to sixteen feet; photos support an estimate of about eight feet.
Testes are reported to be 20-25 pounds, and are internal.

Dayum. :eek:
Why oh why would I click on a link that I knew would most likely lead me to a penis?
It wasn’t as bad as I feared, but still - I’m trying to figure out why I clicked :smack:
Just a friendly hint, if you ever see a link for “goatse”, skip it. 
I f&cking love this message board.
Me too. And may I add that you have one of the worst possible screen names to be replying to this thread?
Dork.
Didn’t they used to make full length leather aprons out of the foreskin? I seem to recall hearing that somewhere.
Yeah, but what about shrinkage?
It was a very cold ocean that day! :mad:
OK… I’ve seen these things in internet pictures but never in real life. Does it… retract inside it’s body when it gets soft?
This is a handy gift idea,
No, handkerchiefs.
They were very convenient - if you got caught in a rainstorm, you just stroked it and it turned into a tent.
Don’t forget to tip your waitress.

As opposed to, say, giving her the shaft?
I find it impossible to believe that I missed this in Moby Dick, but I guess somehow I did.
How in fact did Melville refer to Moby’s Dick in Victorian-era English? ‘Whalehood?’
Am I the only one who’s sick of expanding foreskin jokes? The foreskin doesn’t really get much bigger; it’s the tissue inside it that expands. It gets a little tighter, and it does stretch some, but no more than ordinary skin.
Best GQ thread title ever. I laughed out loud.
