When you’re building a house it is very important to get measurements right. A few inches of extra length on a beam, for example, could result in a wall not being at the right angle to the floor. Doors and windows would not quite fit.

Gay men are known to be perfectionists and this is very true for gay builders too. In the story we are reporting the two gay builders did not feel comfortable working together if there existed a discrepancy in the length of their sexual organs. After comparing the two they were able to ascertain that, indeed, their penises were of equal length.
