Penis-shaped lollipops have been known to make appearances at bachelorette parties, but they're no joke during Japan's Chiwawa Matsuri fertility festival. Our dear friend, Brandon B of The INQUEERY, tipped us off to this holiday's existence. Obviously, we're kind of obsessed with it.
While we'll be spending the night with a pint of Guinness and a hangover in the making, several Japanese citizens will be recovering from a day in which they "celebrate the phallus by literally parading it down the street and eating dick shaped cookies." Apparently, this happens every year on March 15th. And since we'd rather not act like ignorant Americans, can someone please educate us on the details of this festival?
