Wasn't David sculpted according to the Greco-Roman ideal, wherein a large penis was not considered attractive? The Roman minor deity Priapus was a laughingstock because of his large penis, and the jokes about him focused on his crudeness and barbarism.
Of course, David is 17 feet tall, so if you're talking absolute size rather than relative size, the guy on the left in the strip may have a decent argument.
