Was the PENIS scene necessary?
I think the movie could have been more popular without the PENIS scene and references.
shareWhat, are you sexist against man?

Why is everybody saying that there were no boobs in the movie? We didn't see as many boobs as penises, but we saw boobs at the beginning when he was having one night stands with many girls. And there were boobs on the bathroom wall, although it's not like live boobs.
sharehow many females actually got turned on while seeing Pete's penis? not very many i'd assume. sure, many females like the cock. but i think very few actually get their rocks off seeing it all by itself in a movie.
i dont understand this thread. the penis bits were funny, because you dont expect it and it is pretty unecessary, but thats the joke. its about you going "wtf? dick?" and then realising how stupid it is to be shocked. i thought the last one was especially funny because it basically turns it into a running joke, which when you think about it its so bizarre. plus you get shocked all over again because you thought that was out of the way and you'd forgotten about it.

That is faulty thinking, "out". Women don't go to the movies for the nudity, generally. And women want and need more than visual stimulation (ie no male genitals), unlike most men.
Men (hetero- and homo- ) want to see nudity, of course. They want the visual. Men are wired to be visual first in their attraction. Women are wired differently.
"out on dvd" states quite succintly why gay men are undeniably necessary in the world. Only a true (and I mean true!) homosexual man understands the real goodness and beauty of another man, genitals and all, regardless of any other stuff.

yes. it was necessary.
shareI don't think it was necessary. But I have no objection to it at all.
sharePlease tell us more, Blooming Chemical. Are you a boy or a girl a man or a woman? This is an important discussion. Why do you (whoever and whatever you are) "[D]on't think it was neccessary"? Why do you "But...have no objection to it at all."? We want to know for future awareness.

Totally true, I also was annoyed with the scene. But I've got that with sex scenes in general, if I want to see sex, Ill go watch some porn, if I watch a movie, I want to see other stuff :) Also watching sex scenes in a movie with ur family can be a little bit awkward, though when getting older it is getting less. But still, I don't really need it in movies. Okay some scenes to make clear that they are going to have sex, but sometimes it's just too much focus on the sex.
At this movie this was not the case btw.
