Russias fourth-largest city of Yekaterinburg has been plagued by snow sculptures of erect penises over the past week, prompting calls among some residents for authorities to crack down on the practice.

Local media first spotted a giant snow penis in a public square outside the Yekaterinburg Opera and Ballet Theater and the Ural State University on Monday.

Svet, a news channel on the messaging app Telegram, claimed that the elaborate sculpture was the work of local students.

Municipal workers were filmed later that evening removing the sculpture with an excavator.

Yekaterinburg Mayor Alexei Orlov condemned the appearance of the snow penises as an outrage.

Similarly, his deputy Alexei Bubnov said the phallic sculptures were a provocation and could be classified as an administrative offense if they offend anyone, adding that law enforcement could get involved if they continued to appear throughout the city.

A petition appeared on Change.org calling on Yekaterinburg students to stop sculpting the snow penises, and as of Friday afternoon, it was signed by at least 17 people.

Yekaterinburg is a modern and creative city, but why do people allow themselves to dishonor its name and disfigure it with pseudo-creativity? the petition reads.

But the Yekaterinburg Mayors Office denied that it had any plans for a citywide crackdown on the snow sculptures despite Bubnov's threat to involve get law enforcement involved.

Utility services clean roads, sidewalks and public areas like parks and squares, a spokesperson told the local news website Its My City.
Theres no specific duty to search and fight snow sculptures.

The Night of the Giant Snow Penises

I used to draw giant dicks in the snow outside my dorm during winter. It never stopped being funny >_>

It's "funny" because their culture is so homophobic that they probably do actually feel like they're under assault, just like our Republicans when they're told society shouldn't exclusively cater to them.

There's no penis like snow penis

Hmmm so in order to defeat fascism across the world we must weaponize GIANT PENIS en masse? Maybe that was the kryptonite all along

Back in Pompeii's time they had a winged penis as their symbol.

Men weren't such pansies back then.

It would definitely make the fascis cry, and who knows, perhaps it would work?

The only thing we know for certain, thanks to South Park, is that a giant pile of all the guys fucking each other won't stop the future where all the ethnicities and languages combine into one from happening.

Aside from that, the sky's the limit for what we can do with political penises.

But South Park's "Eek, a Penis" shows men unbothered by a penis attached to a mouse. In the episode, women were standing up on chairs and everything...

I'm guessing this is a college thing too. The pics on this are NSFGameFAQs, but imagine a snowman shaped like a large penis. Someone even put one on the hood of a car.

Oh yeah, there was dicks all over my college. People would always draw them on whiteboards that hung on people's doors, draw them on the dorm bulletin board, make dicks with a 100 post-it notes on their window. I miss it >_>
