Jon Hamm Penis So Large ‘Mad Men’ Star Asked To Wear Underwear To Cover Bulge

[Purveyor]

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Grateful for Hope (a host of the General Discussion forum).

According to an AMC insider on the set of "Mad Men", Jon Hamm's penis is so large that the well-endowed actor was instructed to wear underwear while filming certain scenes in the 1960s-inspired award-winning drama.

On March 20 The Daily Beast reported that Jon Hamm’s impressive large penis was such a distraction that the “Mad Men” marketing team had to Photoshop many of the billboards, promotional posters and ad campaigns due to the prominent appearance of Hamm’s penis, nicknamed “Jon, Jr.”

Another AMC insider said that when the promotional photos came back the first few seasons everyone was concerned about the promotional materials showing too much of Christina Hendricks breasts. It became obvious that Jon Hamm’s penis was more of a problem than Hendricks’ breasts.

A representative for Jon Hamm say, “It is ridiculous and not really funny at all. I’d appreciate you taking the high road and not resorting to something childish like this that’s been blogged about 1,000 times.”

In September of 2012 Hamm and longtime girlfriend Jennifer Westfeldt were shopping when paparazzi snapped a photo, making it clear that Jon Hamm was not wearing any underwear and that he is indeed a “big boy.” A few weeks later Jon Hamm was photographed again wearing tight pants and no underwear, making his large penis the star of the photo.

[BuelahWitch]

7. Indeed!

[JI7]

12. .

[cliffordu]

34. SO: FBI stands for Fucking Big Instrument...?

[Kurovski]

39. Alternate: "Fabulously Bothersome Imposition"

But essentially the same thing.

I guess this one is what you'd call it in church.

[CoffeeCat]

48. Ok, are those pictures real?

John Hamm. You had me at...HELLOOOO!

Sorry!

But seriously. Really?

The last pic in the grey pants...I'm blushing.

[Marrah_G]

70. oh my...

[Blue_In_AK]

8. Mm-hmm...

I hadn't noticed, but he IS a very handsome man. This new info is a bonus. Hey, I may be a grandma, but I still have eyes.

[bluedigger]

9. "I’d appreciate you taking the high road and not resorting to something childish like this"

Your call, I guess.

[Purveyor]

77. Hey it was late, I was watching TMZ while the computer and I just knew someone would post

pics.

[NYC_SKP]

10. It's not that big.

[Kurovski]

15. it's a total crappy fake.

but you knew that!!

[freshwest]

29. I agree. Like my hubby (not fake). He could wear baggy pants. I wore baggy shirts. Sheesh, folks.

[The Straight Story]

11. sexist men like big boobs, sexist women like big ding dongs

Wonder how many women would get freaked out and upset if he held the door for them in an oppressive manner?

[Kurovski]

13. With his dingdong?

That would be an impressive manner.

[The Straight Story]

14. He might use it to prop it open

[A HERETIC I AM]

18. Or prop himself.

Think of it this way;

It would be very difficult for him to fall out of bed at certain times of the early morning.



VERY difficult.

[Kurovski]

20. I just...I can't type it.

...we've already been sent to jury at least three times.

Does anyone have the results?

[cherokeeprogressive]

19. Hey Honey... you need a towel? n/t

[Kurovski]

22. Plenty of yankerchiefs at the ready. Thanks doll. (nt)

[Generation_Why]

17. Sexist is too nice of a name for the size queens.

[Kurovski]

24. That whole "motion of the ocean" stuff is all fine and well for some.

But i've heard some gals say that without a proper wave, the boat stays in dry dock.

[redqueen]

74. Why? There's not even a name for men who like big boobs. Why do women deserve nasty names?

Care to share?

[Ghost in the Machine]

36. Or if he had a Rolex on it, and had to pull it out to check what time it was?? n/t

[Archae]

16. I just wonder though, is he a dick?

[Kurovski]

27. all reports say: no!

Hamm is a nice guy.

[Ian David]

21. It's happened to women many more times than to men, and yes, lately, people call them on it

Fox and ABC Censor Plus-Size-Lingerie Ad, but Not Victoria's Secret

In the wise words of Beyoncé, it doesn't seem Fox and ABC are ready for all that jelly ... at least when it's attached to a plus-size model.

According to BrandWeek, both major networks have either censored or banned sexy lingerie ads by plus-size clothiers Lane Bryant.

The clothing company for size 14–32 women took to its own Inside Curve blog to explain the frustrating matter to fans. As the company puts it:

"ABC and Fox have made the decision to define beauty for you by denying our new, groundbreaking Cacique commercial from airing freely on their networks. ABC restricted our airtime and refused to show the commercial during "Dancing With the Stars." Fox demanded excessive re-edits and rebuffed it three times before relenting to air it during the final 10 minutes of "American Idol," but only after we threatened to pull the ad buy. Yes, these are the same networks that have scantily clad housewives so desperate they seduce every man on the block, and don't forget Bart Simpson, who has shown us the moon more often than NASA, all in what they call 'family hour.'"


So, what's the real issue? Read on to see the video -- and curves -- causing all the commotion.

31. Comedians have also pointed out the issue of sweatpants in public

where it is clear a man has no support.

Especially cumbersome when riding a crowded train.

[Kurovski]

32. ...not to mention auxiliary nip-slips.

Sure, sure it's "all an accident".

[HiPointDem]

23. who cares? lounge material. if someone posted an article about how big

some starlet's boobs were, it wouldn't stay here long. why is this different?

[Kurovski]

25. It's saturday night.

and Beyonce is up this round.

anyone have the jury results? Please post.

[JI7]

26. it would if it was about asking them to cover themselves

as this article is about.

[HiPointDem]

38. penis is analogous to vagina, not to breasts. so far as cover-up goes.

[Kurovski]

40. Not according to the article.

No ones vagina was taking focus busting out from under the hemline.

There is another lead in the show who is perfectly Rubenesque to whom the article makes reference.

In this instance it's the issue, not the tissue that is comparable.

[HiPointDem]

41. That the writer thinks a penis is analogous to a breast doesn't make it so.

[Kurovski]

42. The writer does not appear to think that.

it appears to be about approporiate focus in publicity photos.

"Another AMC insider said that when the promotional photos came back the first few seasons everyone was concerned about the promotional materials showing too much of Christina Hendricks breasts. It became obvious that Jon Hamm’s penis was more of a problem than Hendricks’ breasts."

[Kurovski]

44. But like you say "Who cares?"

What I want to see are those jury results. C'mon. Please?

[HiPointDem]

45. I didn't get any results. Maybe you know more than I.

[nyquil_man]

28. Now imagine this is any other part of the anatomy.

Would there be an article about it?

We pretend certain parts of the body are "dirty" and that's how you get giggling 'journalism' like this. Who's the junior Woodward and Bernstein over there at the Examiner working out all the angles on an actor's junk?

[Kurovski]

30. It steals focus,I think it was stated.

kind of like making sure you don't have to do a scene with a kid or a cute kitty. Hamm is asked to put away his puppy.

while most of us in the world may not be size queens, we certainly can be impressed. A very large harvest moon way in the sky also tends to command our attention.

[jonthebru]

33. I have the same problem all the time.

[cliffordu]

35. I just gotta say:

IF I was hung like that, I'd NEVER wear pants.

Just sayin'

[Kurovski]

46. In that case you'd get a rider put into your contract,

Mr. Wildshaft.

[Kablooie]

43. Think he's related to John Dillinger?

I mean they have almost the same first name so it's possible they're related.

[GoneOffShore]

47. The lad's a tripod. n/t

[MadrasT]

49. Holy crap people are immature about sex and the human body.

Who gives a fuck if he wears underwear or not, and why is everybody staring at his crotch?

[trumad]

50. Lets see

Unbelievably handsome---Large Penis...

Nah I'm not jealous.

[RedstDem]

51. what an attention whore

going commando, walking around with his flag at half mast.
the guy in the cubicle next to you would look the same, but probably has too much sensibility to walk around in public like that.

these ego's never cease to amaze.

[MADem]

52. "AMC insider on the set of Mad Men" = ...

Jon Hamm~!!!

[treestar]

53. Equal to the screams and howls you will hear from men over this

Does it make men feel, via Jon, that they are going to be judged on their appearance only?

This does not reverse well. The dominant group can find humor in these things. They don't suddenly become oppressed by this one incident.

Note that it is rare - we don't see this frequently. The case in fact has an air of being dug up in order to argue to feminists they should not protest something.

But it would not be the feminists who should be judged as you say - it is the men's rights guys. This should really bother them the same way exploiting breasts does for feminists. It doesn't.

[UnrepentantLiberal]

54. Still, the sisters of blessed outrage should show

and condemn this thread. It doesn't bother me though. I couldn't care less.

[chervilant]

58. "sisters of blessed outrage"?!?

I won't bother to alert, as too many DUers seem not to understand how sexism and misogyny diminish us all.

[chervilant]

55. Good call.

This struck me as a rather immature ploy to diminish concerns of late about sexism and misogyny on DU. Sad that those who are derisive about these concerns seem unable to see that sexism and misogyny -- and patriarchy -- are damaging to us all.

[snooper2]

57. So only a real feminist wouldn't notice the bulge right?

Eyes Up, I said my face is up here not down there

[treestar]

59. Huh?

I mean the real analogy would be men being upset at women looking at them there instead of their faces. Feeling exploited and like the woman wanted to use them sexually and that women so often look there first rather than trying to get to know the man personally.

[The Straight Story]

61. Which group though? White men (he is white), gay men, black men, handicapped men, transgender men

Each group has a sub group which has more subgroups that can be outraged by something.

The old stereotype that black men have bigger ones --- well if he was black would this even be in the news? Maybe it is because he is white and people think all white guys have small dicks (well, according to some only if you own a gun, but those people are idiots).

If someone wants to they can keep turning something until they discover something about a story/act/etc to make them outraged.

Folks often see what they want to, or what they are paid to.

[whathehell]

63. Yes, you are spot on regarding the difference in the handling and effects on

the "dominant" group, in this case men, and the subordinate one, women.

[OldDem2012]

56. Geez. With all of the really important news, this gets posted? Really? Trashing. nt.

[socialist_n_TN]

62. Not trashing, but I actually agree.........

There's SO much shit going on in the arena of politics that is LITERALLY killing people (or will kill people) and we obsess over some guy's cock.

Not trashing though because I think it's kind of funny and, although oppression and revolution is serious shit, there's still got to be a place for humor in the world. And this thread and this manufactured "controversy" is funny as hell.

[llmart]

60. Can't believe I clicked on this thread.....

merely because of the title. It's Palm Sunday for goddess's sake!

Good thing I'm an atheist 'cause those pics made my day

[JaneyVee]

64. Hamm-bone?

[seabeyond]

65. first, they exploit the breasts and hide the penis. culturally, for different reason.

not a comparable situation.

they use the womens body repeatedly pornifying her to get attention. with the penis they must hide it not to offend mostly other men. so the whole premise of the argument does not have a foundation.

second. he is right. grow the fuck up. who is making the big deal about the visibility of his penis? who the fuck cares. it seems like those yelling about "the sisters of outrage" are the ones that make the biggest deal about body parts. cheering, joking, objectifying, demeaning. i agree with the man. grow the fuck up.

lastly, treestar is right. without oppression of a group, it is not and cannot be the same. not a tough one.

and UL, not my job to address a mans issue. you got a problem, speak up. you do not have a problem, that is your business. telling me where and when i must speak up is bullshit. and attacking women with "sisters of blessed outrage" is just more woman shaming misogynist garbage. you do it so well. and so often. consistently.

[UnrepentantLiberal]

72. The problem is the sisters I speak of equate things that aren't equivallent.

That woman who overheard a harmless dongle joke at a convention and took their picture and posted it on the internet should have been condemned, not praised.

Do I even need to say that the jackasses who posted that she should be raped should be condemned? But saying this only prooves that she was right is ridiculous.

I don't think their should be racist or sexist talk in the workplace. I think women should be paid as much as men. I don't think there should be a glass ceiling. You won't find a woman on this website who doesn't agree with that. But when you are so over the top that even women here are fed up with it you're doing more harm than good. When you're saying things that right wing Christian women agree with you're doing more harm than good.

I won't debate you on this because you have no desire to hear anything but what you want to hear. It's a waste of time.

[seabeyond]

75. a totally bullshit position full of garbage that addressed nothing that i posted. you would be the

man that started a thread with only the C word. i do not buy what you are selling.

[UnrepentantLiberal]

76. That was wrong but it was in response to your post(s)

using the n word.

[nolabear]

66. Lol...I love DU. And I'll go out on a limb and say that's a nice turn-on.

He's gorgeous, he goes commando knowing he's got an attention-grabbing penis and sure, makes the appropriate statement when called out and moves on. Me? They don't call them sexual characteristics for nothin'. And really, the blushing and stammering is part of the fun when everyone's willing and playing along.

[Blue Owl]

67. Say that Hammond Organ can really throb

n/t

[ananda]

68. Can you imagine him doing Shakespeare?

Whoa!

69. As a bisexual male, "Mad Men" fulfills all of my needs.

[DBoon]

71. I see a large publicity stunt here

anyone else suspect the only reason for this story to exist is to get publicity for Mad Men?

[Initech]

73. John Hamm's penis is so big...

HOW BIG IS IT?????

So big that it has its' own zip code.

So big that the DPW found a family of four living in it.

83. I forgot where it was and figured this was a Lounge thread!

[Bennyboy]

79. I hear his penis is SO BIG......

that hear keeps a wallet in his condom.......

[kestrel91316]

80. Are you seeking a pity party for well-endowed men??

Are you perhaps unhappy at all the recent conversations about rape culture and just need to make sure that the poor, poor, men get some sympathy instead of all those nasty, lying 'ho's??

Just curious.

[Purveyor]

82. Not at all. I'm pissed they asked him to make 'adjustments' and wish the tight-jeans fad would

come back.

The best fad era though was when the guys were prancing around in spandex, guess that was back around 1990 or so.

[LittleBlue]

84. Oh Mr. Draper... lol

Love Mad Men, my whole family watches it.

He has looks, intelligence, nice hair, alpha male voice, so of course the dude is also hung. Genetic lottery winner!
