“fertility totems”, surely, “for religious or ceremonial uses”.
Maybe the uses were only masturbating oneself to orgasm with them, though it must be noted that this was done as solemn, mystical propitiation to fertility gods, rather than purely for sexual gratification.

I suspect many of the uncut ones are less obvious and thus may have had their purpose misidentified. Also, it’s unclear if these are cut or merely retracted
There are many non-dildoish uses for which it may have been intended but without doubt anyone at the time would have seen the penile similarities - Dr. Martin Rundkvist, archaeologist

Would it help if it was described as a “religious experience”?
I mean, if I’m busy all week a-huntin’ and a-gatherin’ I’d make a ceremony of it too. Didn’t even have Instagram to scroll, so why not luxuriate?
F in the chat for all the improvised fleshlights that did not survive the march of time. Not even an ancient cum sock.
Probably made out of squishy animal bits instead of the bones.

If you drew eyes on them, any of the lady image could become characters in a Ghibli movie.

Well if they were soft to look at, they wouldn’t be much use would they?
a classic

Looking at those all day is enough to break anyone.
Why are they circumsized? Surely it would have been less work to leave the stone foreskin uncut.
Because our ancestors didn’t get up their own ass about buzzwords.
They got up their own ass about manhood rites instead.
If the tools on display in the article are anything to go by, there is a distinct possibility they just got up their own ass.
shouldn’t they have flared bases?

Wtf is up with humanity’s primordial fascination with cut dicks?
.
It’s hard to cut body parts intricately. Idk.
“Totally retracred or cut” means either the foreskin is cut or that it’s just pulled back.
We don’t know if it’s cut or not, we can only speculate it looks like one.
hehe, hard
Unfortunately flared bases weren’t invented until the 19th century.
Brilliant.
