I take issue with 'shove'. Personally I prefer to finesse these things. Whether one should bare thrust in public is tricky; there have been moments in my life when I felt it honestly necessary to do it, and while others may have seen things differently I stand by my actions. I stand by my penis. But am I proud of my penis? Well, he has rarely let me down....in footballing terms he is the equivalent of the old-fashioned English centre forward like Steve Bull or dare I say it John Fashanu: not really put it about at the top level, but dependable on a wet weekend in Derby.

To build on Mr Changsha's point, we are missing something fundamental with the OP, and that is consent and mutually beneficial exchange.

With any exchange, there must be some clarification of consent before an exchange can occur. Furthermore, if one person is willing to supply a rousing spectacle in public and if the others have the demand, i.e. agree to this performance ex-ante, then there cannot be a problem with waving one's penis in public. This would be a mutually beneficial exchange.

Of course, the gray area of implied consent can be troublesome, and the exchange ex-post may reveal that the expected profits have failed to offset the opportunity costs for each interested party. Other problems are one of definition. "RE: shoving down throats, how deep will it be? What is the girth? When did you last bathe?"

These considerations should not be overlooked.
