Ok, let's remember this is a little town in Oregon.
Sorry, I grew up in Portland, so I'm getting tired of everyone dogging on all Oregon residents

Yeah we read a book in sociology course I took last term about a small town in oregon. Quite different than portland, in fact, people in the town referred to portland as "the people's republic of portland" if I recall.
Come to think of it, this thread is rather phallic, all long and slender like.
The town's proposed solution is to attach metal rings and chains to the posts. Because there'd be nothing at all suggestive about that change
Well, quite obviously they have a problem with Bollards that DON'T have a Prince Albert. Evidently, in their little town a little BDSM bollard-modding is all it talkes to make things A-Okay.
I drove through this intersection the other day on my way to a wedding... I didn't even blink.
This reminds me of the episode of South Park where Kenny threw the shuriken in Butters' eye and nobody in the town cared because Cartman got up in front of the actionhouse naked.
As Sigmund Freud put it, "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar."

They have medications for when that happens.
think it's bad being surrounded by penis-shaped poles? Imagine living in a penis-shaped residential tower!
Kind of funny how this schoolyard grass looks like a penis.

OK - now *that* really made me laugh. I wonder if they can affix a metal ring to the top of that tree, too?Those Oregon folks should avoid Santa Monica
I'm not clear on how the shape is "offensive" rather than "suggestive." Particularly when there is nothing inherently offensive about either of the things in question.
Now, should they both be on public display, that would be another matter.
Though not so much offensive as: "Thanks for sharing, but I don't really need to see that."
