MEXICO CITY Before her death, 99-year-old Catarina Orduña Pérez had one final wish: a giant statue of a dick on top of her grave.
Her family unveiled the completed monument a five-and-a-half foot tall cock and balls weighing nearly 600 pounds mounted on her tomb at a cemetery in Mexico this past weekend as a recognition of her love and joy for life.
She wanted to break the paradigm of everything Mexican, where things are sometimes hidden because of not having an open mind, her grandson Álvaro Mota Limón told VICE World News in an interview. She was always very avant-garde, very forward thinking about things.
Doña Cata, as she was lovingly known throughout the small town of Misantla in the eastern state of Veracruz, had a particular affinity for penises, and what she believed they represented.
She always said, in the Mexican sense, that we were vergas, said Mota Limón.
There are few words in Mexican slang as dynamic as verga, which is perhaps best translated in English as cock due to its general use as a profanity. Depending on how its phrased, verga can be a brutal insult, telling someone to go fuck themselves (vete a la verga) or that theyre not worth shit (vales verga). Or it can be a compliment, a badge of honor, that if something is verga, it is cool or badass.

Doña Cata often used it with that sort of colloquial pride when referring to the members of her family as vergas, according to her grandson; that they were people of moral fortitude, with integrity, courage, passion, and at the same time, love and joy, said Mota Limón
