They may have been dicking around, but this wasn’t just for fun.
Over the weekend, thousands of New Yorkers gathered in Union Square to smack each other with plastic penises in what was probably the first ever ‘dildo war.’ As odd and as violent as that may sound, the only thing the participants were really fighting for was HIV and STD prevention awareness. The organizers of the event almost canceled it when authorities told them they would face legal consequences if they followed through, but unwilling to compromise their message, they went ahead and did it anyway.
