With all the build up to the World Cup in Qatar next week, I hadn’t really given a second thought to the 2024 Olympics in Paris, but whoever is organising them decided to drop an absolute bombshell on us yesterday by revealing that the official mascot for the tournament will apparently be a clitoris.

The latest mascots are known as the Olympic Phryge and the Paralympic Phryge and are bright red, triangular shaped creatures with waving arms and little legs sticking out the bottoms of their bodies – obviously the Paralympic one has a prosthetic leg there. Anyway, I think that mascots for any tournament are almost always universally ridiculed, but this time it’s a little different with the Phryge so closely representing the female erectile organ.

Here’s some of the social media reaction to the Phryge:

So I guess maybe they knew what they were doing? People seem to be laughing about it but everyone actually seems to be loving it and embracing the fact that it’s semi progressive and sorta funny, so maybe somewhat of a faux pas has actually turned into a good idea here?

Perhaps the French Olympic committee was self aware enough to realise what was going to happen when they released these mascots and that it might gain them some more publicity before a homophobic and anti LGBTQ+ World Cup? Nah, I’m not buying that either but it is a nice idea to think that someone might one day employ someone who actually knows a bit about marketing for jobs like this. There’s no such thing as bad publicity remember!

For more of the same, check out when this giant clitoris statue got stolen from a French University for the second time. Maybe there IS something going on over there with their relationship with the clit.
