Part II
I went home and related the story to my as funny anecdote from class. My wife says "Yes! I have been telling you for years!" She points out that she often will touch my flaccid in my pants to check if I am hard, just because it looks so big. She says compared to other men, my flaccid looks like I have an erection. I thought she was just teasing me.
She really thought it was very funny and spent the next day making jokes and comments about my being hung. Essentially she treated it as a validation as she had been telling me for years that I have an obvious bulge.
All of a sudden, all of these seemingly random interactions came together in my mind as I realized these people have been noticing my crotch. It has come up over and over through the years. Taxi drivers telling me I should not try to sleep with Korean women, comparing their forearm to the pinky. Guys talking over beers about how I am twice as big as them, guys who have never seen me naked. Men, whom I am relatively close to, looking at my penis while we pee and nodding in approval. Old men in the sauna telling me to cover up. Middle school boys in class talking about how big I am. College girls absentmindedly looking at my crotch area. Mothers commenting to my wife, etc.
I realize that people have been noticing my "bulge" for a while now. Years even. I always blew off comments about my size as just silliness, as since I have lived in Korea I have dealt with stereotypes. People often hold a stereotype of the black penis. Here in Korea they also have this stereotype about white guys being much bigger than Koreans. I always passed it off as just that, a stereotype.
I feel a little, no, very embarrassed. Could it be these students all think I am a "horn dog" packing wood in front of class? How many people have been staring at my penis? Do students really talk about teachers that way? About me that way?
My wife says "Now you understand what it is like to be a women, with men always looking at you and commenting on your looks."
I understood the objectification of women in abstract, but now I can see how it feels.
