A Facebook friend's inquiry about trickster stories brought this one to mind. I didn't find an 'official' version online right off so I recreated it from gauzy memory and solid pixie dust ...
Coyote and Rabbit were hanging out and wondering about the mysteries of women. Like what did the local hotties think of Coyote, and such. Coyote decides that disguising himself and sneaking into the women's sweat lodge ought to do the trick. Rabbit points out that a wig and an outfit might get him to the door but that Coyote had a prominent feature that might throw things off when it came time to go in. So Coyote takes off his penis and asks Rabbit to hold on to it for him during the reconnaissance mission.
[I think I first heard a version with it being a dance rather than a sweat ... maybe it was both ... anyway ...]
After passing as an old lady and quizzing the ladies, prodding for clues, and general listening in Coyote returns to the clearing where he had left Rabbit—with his penis—and there's no one to be seen. Aaiieee!
Coyote sets off on an angry/scared/desperate search for Rabbit. Coyote searches the night through and when Moon has gone to bed while Dawn is lightening the sky Coyote collapses next to a thicket in a dejected heap. Aaiieeeooo!
... And hears giggling and rustling coming from the thicket ... as a handful of broad smiling young ladies, in various states of dress, bust out of the thicket and disperse to the Four Directions while making breathy exhalations along the lines of,
"Wow, who'd have thought such a little guy would have such a ...".
Coyote plunges in to investigate and finds a very satisfied looking languid Rabbit reclining in a small clearing at it's center.
"Rabbit I trusted you with my penis!!!"
roars coyote.
"But Coyote,"
replies Rabbit,
"It has been well cared for."
"While you danced and cajoled the ladies at the lodge your penis and I have pleasured five maidens—multiple times over ..."
"Well, there is that .."
says Coyote as Rabbit proffers him the penis. Looking down as he receives it, he adds,
"Well, at least someone had a good night ."
And returns Rabbit's broad grin with his own smile and laughter.
But that's not the end of the story ...
