I remember reading somewhere that he actually painted the ceiling in a standing position

Lots of fun facts

There’s a Vincent Van Scoff joke in here somewhere.

HiddenLayer5 ,

Look up the story of how he painted the Sistine Chapel. Madlad legit took no bullshit from the pope despite being commissioned by him, and the pope being the most powerful person in Europe at the time.

There’s been no group in history more focused on penises than religious men. I’m sure they’re fine with it.

Fun story:

When Pope Paul III heard that Michelangelo had finished the top part of the wall and was removing scaffolding, he came immediately to see the progress. His reaction was to fall to his knees and pray. The Pope’s Master of Ceremonies, Biagio da Cesena, had also come to view The Last Judgement, and his reaction was to call it disgraceful! Da Cesena thought the multitude of nudes were sacrilegious, and he predicted that the wall would someday be destroyed.

Pope Paul III was astonished and angry, and he said that he’d excommunicate anyone who touched the wall.

Almost immediately, Michelangelo had an assistant stucco the lower right corner of the wall, and he painted da Cesena as Minos, the judge of Hades. Word got back to da Cesena and he demanded another visit, with the Pope in tow. Here, I quote from Irving Stone:

“You see, Holy Father,” cried the Master of Ceremonies, “the report was true. Buonarroti has painted me into the fresco. With some kind of repulsive serpent for my genitalia.”

“It’s a covering,” replied Michelangelo. “I knew you would not want to be portrayed wholly naked.”

Pretty sure that was the ideal of male beauty, back in the day.

No dick-shamin’.

I mean flaccid dicks are small. And for fucks sake I’m glad they are. Could you imagine having to walk and maneuver yourself with a permanently massive shlong?

I’d hate to be the goddess of virility and have a permanent erection.

Boy, that’s a loaded question.

shalafi ,

It is indeed a burden.

(I mean, I’m all of 5’8" and 138lbs., at least the good lord gave me something.)

wow 5’8” is quite the schlong

AlligatorBlizzard ,

My schlong can be as large as I want it to be… usually I go with the much more manageable 4" trouser snake. Anything bigger is just awkward.

Read into the differences of blood penises vs. meat penises. ( But don’t do a picture search. Google misinterprets that terribly.)

Imgonnatrythis ,

Uhh, have you seen the sistine chapel? Those boys are hung!
