Homophobia - Schandmaske

Schandmaske - 16th century punitive device for the perpetrators of minor crimes wherein the accused would wear a mask that was a sort of caricature of the crime committed. This mask I made for a family member (who has since changed their view) who once tried to convince me that there is a diseased amongst homosexual men that changed their skull structure to look like a mutual boss we had at the time. I remember thinking "Man are you afraid someone is going to come along and shove a cock down your throat?" Aaand that's how we ended up here.... an angry, yelling face, screaming out as a phallus is forcibly cranked into the wearer's throat.
