Remember this?
The grandmothers of Elian Gonzalez assessed his growth and his well-being by taking his pants down and to look at his penis.
When the relatives in Miami heard about this, they accused the grandmas of being child molesters, but the response though was that this a cultural custom in Cuba.
It appears that assessing penis sizes as a biological index of health is a common practice in the Caribbean and Latin American.
Could this fact be construed as an example of the cultural standard of normality?
Well, fair enough, maybe! It now turns out, in fact, that Cuba's hottest bit of boy-candy... is still Cuba's hottest bit of boy-candy. And now it's not just the grannies who are interested in Elian's private parts. (Not that over the years I've come to expect anything more from these people! )
