What do you mean?

It’s generally considered that the whole “black people have tremendous dicks” thing, to quote Eddie Murphy, is because that was considered somehow brutish or animalistic. Rather than what you’re implying. And I say this as a man with a tremendous dick.

Actually, black people DO on average have larger dicks than Caucasians. Not by anywhere near as much as the stereotype goes, but it’s still a thing.
That’s often something racists do: take a small real difference and blow it up into a (somewhat literally in this case) larger than life caricature and then declare it a bad thing.
Btw, I couldn’t find the wheelbarrow one, but here’s a fun SFW pic of Priapus:

Maybe, but again - were the Ancient Greeks really influenced by that? Probably more from observing the behaviour (and anatomy) of horses and certain livestock.
