Well, I assume we're supposed to regard it as a "symbol" rather than an illustration. Perhaps it was considered in bad taste to "illustrate" with anatomically-correct images, and so they moved things around a little bit so as to not discomfit the ladies too much.
Still, the damn thing is half the diameter of his leg! That's got to "discomfit the ladies" no matter where it's positioned. ;-)
This is especially interesting since Mr. Schryver made the assertion that ex-Mormons would go all Holocaust on Mormons if given the chance:
To the contrary, dear beastlie. Assuming that Scratchy is still on the records (as Coggins suggests), and if I were in his ward or stake, and I knew his true identity, I would rat him out to the stake president in a heartbeat and also volunteer to be a witness against him in a "court of love." Indeed, there are several participants on this board, who, if they are still masquerading as members in good standing, I would also rat them out if I could. Purge the whole lot of them, I would. Ride ''em out of the chapel on a rail, weeping and wailing all the way.
My only real regret is that we can't bring back some of these:
If that whole multiple mortal probation stuff has any basis, then I'm quite sure I was Torquemada in a past life. Man, those were the days!

Mr. Schryver revealing temple secrets and wishing for a murderous revenge-organization to still be in existence:
Endowed in July 1979. Live session at the Salt Lake Temple. Didn't bother me at all. Thought it was quite fascinating. I especially liked the guy who got to play the role of Satan. He was a good actor. Really sold the part well. Not that I understood it all at the time. Who could? But I wasn't shocked or repulsed by any of it, not even the penalty stuff. Made it seem more serious, I suppose. I kind of regretted it when they dispensed with that part. That, and the preacher guy. I just loved his little speech about the God who is everywhere and nowhere, etc., etc. Classic stuff!
I suppose my only real regret is that the Danites aren't still around to make you apostates pay up for breaking your oaths. Oh, those were the good old days . . .
Irony at its best.

To his very limited credit he gives good advice to his poor family:
I have accordingly taught my daughters that education, achievement, marriage, and motherhood can all coexist – but that it won’t always be easy, and it will require them to utilize their free agency in such a way as to do the best they can given the challenges and ever-changing circumstances of a demanding life.
For a guy who likes to denigrate other people's familial situations he certainly puts a lot of information about his own family on the InterTubes. Hopefully he reconsiders this M.O..

First of all, you try to tell my beloved 22-year-old "wenchlette" to "shut up and do as you're told." She'd kick your pansy-ass from here to Montana, let you stew in your humiliation for a while, then come back and mock you for good measure.
As for my my wife, the "Wrong-headed-wench" -- well, you should hear what she calls me.
Terms of endearment have many forms and fashions -- adapted to those who employ them. I will allow you to choose yours -- once and if you can ever find a female to latch herself onto you. So please allow me to choose mine.
Mother & daughter. Vulgarity. Yeah. *shakes head*

No doubt.
Best of all, the restrooms will be kept sparkling clean, thus making them extremely attractive as points of rendezvous for you and your craigslist friends.

Well, the thread's about Will. Did you expect any but a complete train wreck?
(Nevo, Jan 23) And the Melchizedek Priesthood may not have been restored until the summer of 1830, several months after the organization of the Church.
