Bigfoot Has A Big Problem ... In Bed

We just might finally know why Bigfoot is always hiding: He's embarrassed. You figure an ape-man with famously big feet would be well endowed in other areas.

"If you think Bigfoot is a large-bodied primate, like a gorilla or an orangutan -- and a lot of Squatchers think Bigfoot is a descendant of gigantopithecus (or giganto-dick-ecus, if you want) -- gorillas and orangutans actually have a quite small manhood."
