Me now:

“The fundamental ancient egyptian idea of creation was that the creator, the God Amun, or the God Atum, depending on what version you read, masturbated the world into existence, with his semen creating new life, so ritually the role of the God’s wife or the God’s hand was to in some way to sexually stimulate the God Amun to reproduce, whether through literally wanking off his statue, or you know, engaging with the statue in some way. A statue of the God because the God could only be present in the temple through a gold statue. She says in her inscriptions “I have experienced his impressive efficacy of the God Amun” and she goes on a lot about building obelisks, which are a shaft of stone with a pyramid shaped, benben, it’s called the benben stone at the top, which is believed by some egyptologists to represent the petrified semen of the creator God. So literally obelisks are monuments to masturbation.”
