That's not Johnny Weismuller as Tarzan- it's Lou Gherig, the great Yankees baseball player... I think he was auditioning/trying to start Hollywood career

Thanks, that was how it was captioned, but I can see that it is not Johnny Weismuller. Not sure I would have recognized Lou Gehrig, "The luckiest Man on the face of the earth" on July 4,1939,who was dead from A.L.S. less than two years later.

I think you may mean this guy ?
pic_323_big-jpg.37853581

I don't know. Is there something wrong with the guy's penis ? What is it that you see ? I see a guy out in the sun with the sun shining on his penis. A guy who was probably 18 in 1938-1945 and would be approaching 100 or beyond if he were living. Who am I to find fault in his penis ?

Please tell us what you see wrong with it.

I've always liked this picture. I do wonder, though, not about his penis but his scrotum. His penis looks like a very handsome, average-sized one. His scrotum looks as if he's missing his right testicle. It might also be that his right testicle is very high up and hiding behind his penis due to the angle of the picture. It's still a great picture of a nude man back in the late 30s or early 40s enjoying the beach. Who'd have thought that we'd be looking at this man's naked glory eighty-plus years later. :)

Yes, when I gave the pic a close look, I wondered if he might have only one testicle. but he looks okay to me.
When I have met a man with one testicle, or whose unit has a different aspect, like hypospadias, I have never felt I should comment unless he brings it up to break the "ice". Really no different to me than if a man has blue eyes or one eye. He am what he am, and not likely to change. How we are formed at birth is perhaps the last characteristic we welcome others to question.

I know a guy I met in the 80's who I could not help but observe, when shaking his hand the first time, had a right hand with twice as much flesh. One huge hand, the other normal. Have never said one word about his hand to the fellow; what would I say ?
