Inevitably, it's Belgium. Brussels, to be precise:

Since the beginning of the week, gigantic drawings of penises and sex scenes have appeared on walls of the capital, within public view.

An explicit image of a woman's vagina appeared on the Brussels skyline on Rue des Poissonniers, in the stylish Dansaert neighbourhood.

In the centrally located Place Stéphanie, a graffiti of a woman masturbating also appeared earlier this week.

The latest licentious street art – a gigantic penis painted in black and white – appeared in the business district of Saint Gilles in front of a Catholic institute. Saint Gilles is an extremely busy area, and the drawing has already sparked controversy among local residents.

In the Parliament of the French-speaking Community known as Federation Wallonia-Brussels, an MP Vincent Henderick described the street art as "inappropriate".
