The Pink Penis At The National Gallery...
A couple attending an art exhibition at the National Gallery were
staring at a portrait that had them confused. The painting
depicted three black men totally naked, sitting on a park bench.

Two of the men had black penises, but the one seated in the middle, had a pink penis.

The curator of the gallery realized the confused couple were having
trouble with interpreting the painting and offered his assessment.

He went on and on explaining how it depicted the sexual emasculation
of African-Americans in a predominantly white, patriarchal society.

"In fact", he pointed out, "some serious critics believe that the pink
penis also reflects the cultural and sociological oppression expressed
by gay men in a contemporary society".

After the curator left, an Irish man approached the couple and
said, "Would you like to know what the painting is really about?"

"Now why would you claim to be more of an expert than the curator
of the Gallery?", asked the couple.

"Because I'm the guy who painted it," he replied. "In fact, there
is no African-American representation at all. They're just three Irish
coal-miners. The guy in the middle went home for lunch."

3. The white guys were all black from coal dust
The guy in the middle had a clean, white penis because he'd gone home for lunch and had sex with his significant other.
