Thanks!

These are two innocents of the 1920s, so the gourd-like ghastly appendages are not what they might be in our more jaded age. Indeed, later in the book they figure out the mechanics of teh sex from a statue of Leda and the Swan. Homosexuality is also unknown to them although the title of the book might lead you to think differently (hint, hint).

If no one gets it from this, it is indeed a closed book and time to move on. Where's the poohchicken when you need someone with a taste for period humor?
