Japanese and international penis lovers alike have eschewed tsunami memorials in favour of the chance to ride about on some giant penis amidst cheering crowds, much to the delight of onlookers and writers of ambiguous headlines.
The 2012 Hodare Matsuri, held annually on the second Sunday of every March, sees visitors to the Hodare Shrine in chilly Niigata prefecture celebrate the male sexual organ with all manner of wooden icons and sacred foodstuffs.
The traditional highlight of the event involves newly-weds being carried aloft riding a 2.2m long, 600kg mikoshi-mounted wooden penis, in the hopes of supernaturally enhancing their fertility.
Fortunately, the event also attracts plenty of photographic attention:
Many Japanese are as perplexed by all this as any mere barbarian might be, and even the usual perverse hypocrisy which sees secular sex subjected to extremes of censorship and moralistic persecution whilst strange rites utterly at odds with modern Japanese affectations of propriety are exalted as healthy traditional culture does not escape criticism entirely:
“Scandalous!”
“Madness!”
“Arrest them for exhibiting obscene materials already.”
“I thought this was just made up for some eroge. They really have it?”
“What kind of country backwater is this…”
“These kinds of festivals happen everywhere.”
“Of course. From ancient times people have celebrated children and the organs which make them.”
“Primitive native culture.”
“Don’t forget the Kamamura festival.”
“Those sweets!”
“The countryside is pretty amazing at times.”
“Outrageous!”
“Only crazed exhibitionists would go to this. I bet you wouldn’t even get arrested for flashing your penis there…”
“This is an ancient and deeply rooted regional ceremony, so there is nothing wrong with it at all.”
“There is a vagina festival at an Aichi shrine as well. It’s not indecent!”
“If they are this open about things it isn’t even that sexy.”
“So they still held it on 3/11…”
“This is a holy festival. People who say it is scandalous are unpatriotic!”
“This is discrimination against people with phimosis.”
“Hey, don’t have foreigners ride them!”

Penis and pussy for 600 yen each? Damn!
Where are the lolis riding those?
Traditionally, newly married women rides the giant penis for fertility.
@13:17 sounds accurate, providing the woman lives near yokohama.
So traditionally a woman gets pregnant by black guy after getting married?
Where are the lolis eating those candies? ...Either one will do.
There's pics of both in the older galleries on the subject IIRC...
basically, a free masturbation toys
I thought it was just a joke when I saw them in Maji de Watashi ni Koi Shinasai.
So did I...
Just too bad this festival is not as epic as Majikoi
There's also kanamara matsuri, the iron penis festival, in Kawaski (near Tokyo). Tons and tons of furriners.
as did i...
That's what I call riding some cock.
I want to see a video of a girl sucking THAT candy :D
That would be fantastic!
A video would be fantastic. But I'll be okay just to see a photo or two.
There is that girl eating penis ice cream photo floating around on the net.
A video would be fantasticmind
What's with the ninja in pic #18???
WTF! Ninja still alive???
...and after the girls had worshiped the penis, it showered them with its blessings.
FUCK! Where are my loliz??!! WHERE?!
white rain!
Your avatar makes the statement that much better
To those that complain I say URUSAI! [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhSZudPWsJM]
It was happening long before you were around and will be long after you are gone. Besides, in these tough times it's a boost to the local economy. That alone is reason enough to let them have some fun.
I'm not telling anyone not to have a penis festival, but I am not obliged to approve it just because it's ancient. Racism is old too, you know.
So your comparison for a celebration of the symbolism of the very things that makes us human and a successful species, and is universally fun and feels great, is to compare it to something based on fear and lack of understanding?
Yeah, you really need to reboot your perspective a bit. Penises and vaginas exist, and we all seek one or the other. To deny that and the fact that people celebrate the springtime concept of mating rituals is the mark of an ignorant fool who knows nothing outside their own back yard.
That wasn't his point, you fucking moron. He was only saying that just because something is old, doesn't make it right. And he was correct.
Way to herp a derp though.
"much to the delight of onlookers and writers of ambiguous headlines"
Oh, you...
And if these were men riding a giant vagina, theyd be labeled perverts and arrested.
What? No blurry censored mosaic for OP?
I'm disappoint SanCom
The blonde was surprising, though.
Yellow people, except 072-073 she's white and actually hot.
I see no yellow people, dumbass.
I see no yellow people...
you fucking blind anon? she's ugly as shit, put a bag over it
"No way?! A blonde?"
That's my first thought, usually a foreigners would be disgusted but that one got me.
She's hot BTW, short blonde hair is hot.
Not all foreigners are American.
She seems German in her features to me. Not sure why, but generally I've understood German women to be a bit less prudish about things like this.
...plus have you ever seen German Porn? They can give JAVs a run for their money. I wonder if it's something worth anthropological study that the two most prevalent nations to make a run for world domination in the previous century now make the some of the most world-renowned pornography...
actually shes an American and an ALT with the JET Programme.
Truth.
She looks like a man to me.
I agree. She does look like a man.
Oh. It that time again for the penis fest. My buddy and I was just talking about it. We're gonna go see it next year for some 600 yen pussies.
What is this? ...a penis!? They're having a penis festival!? Japan, oh you...worshiping and celebrating the strangest things.
A long time ago, somewhere in Japan, in a small village. A man said, "Hey, we should have a matsuri that celebrates our Penises!" And the women went, "Don't forget about us too! You must celebrate our Vaginas too!" Before long the village came to be known as The Village of Penis.
And that's how the village above you came to be what you see as of today.
Foreword:
The story above is fiction. Produced by the imagination of the author (me) and has no real relation to festival of penis or anyone related to it. Or so I think...
P.S.
I meant no offence to anyone or the village or city that is celebrating this penis festival. But seeing how this is, it's quite the horror.
Actually genital worship is not that rare among ancient cultures, even including European ones. Some parts of Japan just happened to be isolated enough to preserve that. Not being affected by sexually abstemious Judeo-Christian religion would also have had a role in it. In that sense I don't see this festival as that unusual.
y do i live in america again?
Whores!!!
oh wait Japan... nvm >.>
finally a new religion, the japanese is now worshipping penis because japan is a sexist country
Logic and Comedy FAIL.
I'm going to start wearing penis adornments and when people take offense I will reply "it's my religion."
