I've always considered neckties as phallic symbols --flaccid-phallic
symbols. They've always seemed to me to be a statement over the gate
to our curture that reads: "Abandon all hope of fun, ye who enter

I think you should give us an analysis of bolos (the 'Western' ties),
and bow ties. If you're not to busy, you might deconstruct the
Windsor, the half-Windsor, and the four-in-hand. (I'd be careful with
that last one.)
Yours appreciatively,
