    Oh. Where you going?.. Oh, you men are all alike. Seven or eight quick ones and then you’re out with the boys to boast and brag. YOU BETTER KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT. Oh… I think I love him.

    IIRC he decides against making him a mate because he already feels guilty for creating the monster and everything it’s done

    It’s not weird at all; Victor wanted a big dumb corpse man to rail him senseless. Big dreams take dedication and hard work, guys.

    So in the book he doesn’t cobble together random parts, he explicitly picks the best parts across dozens of bodies, even down to the hair.

    They implies that he went around dick checking every recently executed corpse for weeks until he found the most perfect and beautiful cock and the most prefect and beautiful balls to go with it.

      As the minuteness of the parts formed a great hindrance to my speed, I resolved, contrary to my first intention, to make the being of a gigantic stature, that is to say, about eight feet in height, and proportionably large.

      The creature packed.

      But since Victor is a simia dei and his creation is flawed from the start he cannot bear him being fruitful and multiplying

      I don’t like the implication that Frankenstein’s Monster has a matching set of balls, what’s the chance that the two best ones you find come from the same sack?

      Do you think he took both balls from the same corpse, or from two different corpses?

      I mean, not that different to classical nude male statues and the consistent focus on dicks, just biologically instead of built from stone

    Hey, now, why is it weird? I consider it respectful as Victor wanted him to be as complete as possible. How could he call his creation complete if it was missing a rather fundamental part of a human? Would you call him complete if he only gave him one arm or one leg? Of course not. So Victor has to look for a penis to give him or else his project is left unfinished.

    I’d have thought it would be obvious - no guy would make another guy smooth down there.
