Sex in the Voynich Manuscript

Parts of the Voynich Manuscript have been referred to as "the biological pages" because their illustrations are reminiscent of fantastic anatomical drawings, which make me think of Salvador Dali's soft, vaguely obscene, dribbling, dripping blobs, gently melting away on top of chests of drawers, or skewered on wooden forks. The illustrations of the "biological pages" of the Voynich Manuscript resemble "soft" plumbing diagrams, bathtubs, pools, showers, connected by organic-looking pipes, in which (here comes the sex bit)... in which naked nymphs frolick about. Particularly this one:
nymph in bath. 6K

Does that ring a bell? No? Turn her 90 degrees counter-clockwise:

nymph in phallus. 6K

What is that? Until the accompanying text has been deciphered we cannot be sure, but it looks very much like a diagram to accompany an explanation of erections.
