Cool Introduction to Psyche, famed consort of Eros - part 3

[continued from last post]

So why does one claim that Peter Pan contains an erotic undercurrent?

First, there is the name of the story. The demi-god Pan was the most infamous horn-dog of antiquity, whose reputation is aptly represented by a celebrated statue below of him screwing a female goat!

And by 1902, "peter" was attested in print as a euphemism for the penis, predating the debut of the story a few years later. Thus, the dick of the lustiest playboy of antiquity's mythology is properly enough called "Pan's peter." Don't tell me that when J. M. Barrie chose the name "Peter Pan" he had no idea of these associations! [Eighteen months after I first made this post in January 2017, I learned that in the brothels of America's "Old West," the term "peter pan" was ALREADY in use to designate the wash basin in which a client's genitals were washed! For my enlightenment, thank an episode of a one-time (2003-05) History Channel serial titled Wild West Tech, a copy of which you can view as I write this here. This fact is also attested in the book Red Light Women of the Rocky Mountains (University of New Mexico Press, 2011) on the page here.]

Second, Barrie (born 1860) was raised in the small Scottish village where a legendary orgy took place in the 1880s, which is remembered in a bawdy classic song called The Ball Of Kerrymuir. A cleaned-up version of it is sung by Jim Croce here, and an unexpurgated version is sung in a heavy Scots dialect by Kenneth McKellar here. A summary of its numerous variant naughty verses can be found here.


Finally, the story of Peter Pan itself contains several very telling symbols and puns which time does not permit me to share with you now. Maybe later, if you are good! ;-)
