Is there any way to fold a dinner napkin so that its shape mimics that of an erect, circumcised penis?

I would prefer if I could achieve this configuration without outside utensils such as rubber bands, but I accept that this might not be possible.

Thanks.

The way I learned it, there’s a story that goes along with it.

A man buys a ‘flying carpet’ from a shady street vendor who promptly packs up and leaves once he has the man’s money. The hapless gent puts his carpet on the ground, sits on top of it, and gives the command the vendor told him to use. ‘Up, carpet!’ He tries again and again while a crown gathers to watch.

A man steps forward and says, ‘I happen to be a pilot, and I can tell you from experience that that thing isn’t going to fly without wings.’ The pilot folds the two corners in. ‘Up, carpet!’ cries the sucker. It still doesn’t fly.

Another person comes forward and says, ‘I’m an engineer. The problem is that you don’t have a powerplant.’ He folds the tip of the triangle from the ‘wing making’ exercise to serve as an ‘engine’. The carpet buyer once again says, ‘Up, carpet!’ But to no avail.

A prostitute steps forward and says, ‘I’ll bet I can get it up!’ And she does, by rolling the sides inward to make the penis shape.

Chong did that stunt in one of the Cheech & Chong movies. He wrapped the napkin around a glass before twisting it up into a dick shape which was able to hold up in an erect posture, with the glass forming the head of the dick. Then a woman bouncer walked up, gripped the glass through the napkin, and crushed it in her hand. This caused Chong’s cloth dick to lose its tumescence and collapse.
