Metamorphic Genitalia and Fantastical Sexual Images is a book proposal by Paul Rumsey. It features grotesque, fantastic, surreal and comic images of genitalia from all cultures, including Roman, Japanese and right up to Symbolism, Surrealism, Robert Crumb, ero guro and film.
As these images are not of real things they are each symbolic and mean very different things, some erotic, others religious, political or comic. The book does not have any images of the real human form, only those that are metamorphosed in some way, what can be called anthropomorphic genital images. Mostly these will be phallic images, but there are a lot of vulva images also.
The works will be classified by the type of distortion, the way they differ from reality (a single image may have more than one method of distortion).
