man exists no more. Without the shield of clothes, a naked man is just a human being who has the same blood, flesh,

parts of men. The vibrating muscles of men tell the story about themselves. Not only the
chest and the triceps talk about their host, but also the usually
bashful muscle of anus faces the camera and says
something. Because of curiosity, penises are too strong temptations for men to resist. The reverie
about penises sets out the meaning-searching journey.
The toy penises and the ropes are used to dance. Playing with the toy penises and tugging the
ropes, the hosts of the penises seem to have some tales or
discoveries about their bodies.

The most impressive scene for me is Lips Slip, because it is
the climax and exposes the sensitive and weak side of
men. All the dancers try to have a perpetual kiss with their
partners. The kiss seems to be a way to sustain their lives. Once they have lost such a
support, they slip on the floor. It shows the fragile side of
man. After getting into the private place of man, we find the
