I must say it happens not really often, I mean when I pity statues… But even several months later I feel it was a very right moment for that.
This guy is from Prague:
You think he is lucky, really?
Maybe you will change your mind:
Every day, everyone… I’m afraid his private parts hurt him.
Standing there I wanted to come closer, look into his eyes and… propose friendship. I mean I would promis not to touch his penis… ever ))
I was reminded about this statue by the latest Weekly Photo Challenge, click to check other entries!

What was he supposed to represent? I can understand why you pity the statue.
Its name is ‘Youth’. And people touch him to make a wish. I’m afraid to think about the kind of wishes they make ))
I definitely feel sorry for the statue now also. I think I’ll throw my coins in the fountain to make my wish. 🙂
I’m sure the ‘Youth’ guy would thank you for that :))
LOL
There’s a statue of Juliet in Verona, Italy with the same issue… except it’s a breast that gets rubbed.
And I’m afraid there are many others
poor poor statue
