Recidiva said:Vessica Piscis:
"Vessel of the Fish," vesica piscis, was a worldwide ancient synonym for the yoni or vulva. In religious symbolism it stood for the feminine creative force, the Mother-spirit that gave birth to the world and the gods. In prepatriarchal philosophy the general explanation for sexual activity was that spiritual nourishment for males was inherent in the act of "plugging in" to this female power, resulting not only in a moment or two of godlike bliss, but also in an essential contact with the mysterious magic inside a woman's body that could actually produce life.
The ancients insisted that women's sexual secretions smelled like fish, which is why the sign of the yoni came to be called vesica piscis. One of the Hindu titles of the Great Goddess was "a virgin named Fishy Smell, whose real name was Truth." Particularly in her Love-goddess aspect, the ancient Mother was associated with fish, seashells, seawater, salt, ships and fishermen. She often appeared in mermaid form with a fish tail, or even two fish tails like the medieval Siren. In her honour, fish were eaten on Friday, which was her official day, named after Freya, her Scandanavian incarnation. (Latins called it the Day of Venus) Thus it was - and in some areas still is - believed that fish are aphrodisiac food.
The vesica piscis passed into medieval Christian art as a frame for holy figures (see Mandorla), however incongruous this might have seemed in the light of its older connotations. Renaisannce painters often showed the "cloud" that took Jesus up to heaven in the form of a vessica piscis, which appeared to be swallowing him headfirst, so that sometimes only his dangling legs remain visible.

The current "Fish" symbol for Christ (The Piscean) is a converted Vesica Pescis. Instead of standing straight up, it's turned to the side.
Basically for a pagan, if you have this on your car, you're proclaiming your adoration for feminine fertility.

now you make it sound hot.bronzeage said:Its the flip side of the "does size matter?" quandary.
It gives the man who is a misogynist at heart a vein of insecurity to tap into when ever he wants to get in a dig.
Men who indulge in this kind of humor may like pussy just fine. They don't like the woman to whom it is attached.
