So many double entendres and word plays, so little time…

There’s nothing half-cocked about this guy. All puffed chest and strut, he defo believes he’s cock of the walk. Make no wonder the cockerel is often symbolic of virility.

And pugnacity.

With all that testosterone swirling around, feathers are bound to fly! Yet roosters are not known for their aggression – more lovers than fighters.

As we see it, the main beef (or should that be chicken) with the cockerel is he doesn’t know when to dial down the cock-a-doodle-doing. After a bit of how’s yer father, the proud cock can’t help but make some noise, bragging loudly about his performance.

And as all us laydeez know, those who shout the loudest are usually those with the least to shout about.

Add as a quirky charm to your mess and cock a snook at vainglorious machismo.
