Is "whipping it out" a thing?

I've read about Arthur Freed at MGM being in his office alone with 11-year-old Shirley Temple and casually whipping out his penis (she had never seen one before and nervously giggled, enraging Freed who yelled at her to get out.)

I've read about Harvey Weinstein whipping out his penis, apparently all the time, with young women alone in his hotel rooms.

Now we have this Rudy thing where he's supposedly about to whip out his penis while alone in a hotel room with "Tutar," a young woman posing as a journalist (I don't find the video convincing on this at all.)

So, is this a thing? Is this why I had so many one-time dates when growing up? Should I have just "whipped it out" and, when I didn't, I was labeled a boring wet blanket never to be seen again?

Further, the answer to the original question asked in this thread is:

Yes, "whipping it out" really is a thing.

Now, it's not a great "thing," but I became aware of it as a "thing" back in the 70's. What happened was that Jim Morrison, of the Doors, was accused of, charged with, and convicted of, "whipping it out" at a live concert. Morrison and his band mates vehemently denied the alleged incident, and no photographic evidence was ever presented at trial, or anywhere else, to verify the alleged act. All in all, the accusation, etc. had all the markings of a political hit job, and did nothing to diminish the popularity of either Morrison, or the band. In reality, this apocryphal "whipping it out" became what today would be called a "meme" among Doors fans, who believed the story to be quite amusing. (Morrison and the band, however, did not find it to be at all amusing.)

Much more recently, comedian Louis C.K. has also become quite notorious for "whipping it out" in public. But, this time around, not all that many people find it to be amusing, or entertaining.

and why do men think whipping that thing out makes women tremble with excitement??? It’s a rubbery ole piece of flesh that gets hard by, what, magic??? It just always makes me laugh at men that think that “thing” runs the world.

Instructor was female but had a sense of humor. First day she says, "so everyone signed up for the lab, right?".

Over the quarter, the subjects were eye opening.

During the people who like to "flash" section, related this story to us. She was in the university's library looking for a book and noticed a guy in a full business suit and brief case walking around. Didn't think much of it and kept looking for the book she wanted. Next thing she knows, he's right next to her and, yeap, has his schlong out and gripping it. She didn't pay any mind and continued to look for the book (she understood the psychology behind flashers). After he left, she called university police and they arrested him in the parking lot. Turned out that not only did he have a wife, but two kids.

She then pointed out, that often people like them get a rush if you react to them, like a sense of power, which is why she didn't respond. If something "beneficial" happens afterwards, then its just extra.

A former female coworker, who was single, bought a horse and was seeking a single man with a similar obsession.

So she joined some kind of dating site for rural guys, and she told me that several of the guys only had a pic of an erect penis for their profile.


She never contacted them.

Maybe we are being blackballed on account of our prudish or litigious nature?

This assertion is simply an argument from ignorance.

I clearly said "some". You, on the other hand imply that all humans are of a prudish and litigious nature.

First, I made a reference to "our nature". Now this is an ambiguous term that does not necessarily mean a sweeping indictment of all humans. It could just as easily mean an average, a tendency, or even a minority in this context.

Second, the reference to "our nature" was in the context of a hypothetical space alien's viewpoint. This does not necessarily reflect my own personal viewpoint.

Third, it's a joke.
