Description:
The first time I saw kotekas, also known as phallocrypts or penis sheaths, was at the Museum of Cultures in Helsinki. Made of gourds and shells, they covered the male organ. The decorative sheaths reminded me of the time when I was a little boy and dressed up my willy with colourful, pretty ribbons and showed it off proudly – until the look I got from Grandma hinted that it was not quite proper. The memory made me wonder how people would experience the sheath if it were used in the West today,
