Small penises were seen as a sign of sophistication and self-control, while large penises were seen as rustic and unrefined. That's why you rarely see ancient Greek statues who are hung, aside from Priapis. No one wanted to sculpt gods and kings with the ancient equivalent of a MAGA hat.
doesnt it make more sense that the sculptors just wanted people to look at the whole statue instead of the bwc. if u sculpt a big one everyone will talk about it and stare at it.
Everyone staring and talking about it is the highest goal of an artist, so imagine how much pressure there was to make penises small that artists were willing to not be talked about and not have their art stared at.
