Tell me whatever interesting and lewd facts you have about sexuality throughout the ages

Everything from the first stone dildo, to the Greek pedarasts, to the Kama Sutra, to the Egyptian ritual of fapping into the nile, to medieval brothel slang, to Catherine the Great's alleged sexcapade with a horse.
>>
>>363168

I would have to go digging for the exact page citation, but I remember studying Bava Metzia (one of the books in the Talmud), and there was a case of a woman suing her husband for personal injuries sustained while having sex.

His defense was that she injured herself using a dildo. They eventually decided that while in theory she could sue her husband for that kind of thing, there wasn't enough evidence to actually carry the case.

Even across maybe 1,400 years and a language I'm not fully familiar with, I could feel the cringe of the people writing it.

Augustus made an anti-kek law. If you caught yourself getting keked you could lawfully kill your wife and the bull. If you didn't kill the wife, you had to take her to court. Funny thing is that it was hardly ever applied, and when it happened to Augustus own daughter he had to prosecute and exile her.

To be fair, the court in question didn't make a ruling either way. It's entirely possible that she was in fact honest and correct in her assessment.

Despite how Russians try to appear now, homosexuality has always been quite a common tradition among them, and many European travelers considered Russian faggotry repulsive. Gays only started to be outlawed during 19th century.

Also Russian peasants loved incest.

The ama, female Japanese pearl divers that inhabited far-flung coastal regions have significance in literature as both a sexual image (they often were topless) and a solemn one, as they practiced their sophisticated diving arts without appreciation, in solitude and away from the capital.

The development of urban culture in the Tokugawa period, brought about by affluent merchants seeking escape from their lowly position in a strict Neo-Confucian social order gave way to a popular culture that was in some ways a rebellion from governmental attempts to cultivate a "moral nation". Pornographic images like that are some of the products of this period.

Another thing: Back in the day in Babylon there was a sacred prostitution custom where women would go to a temple of Inanna/Ishtar and bang a stranger once in her life. She had to accept any amount of money, no matter how small. She was only allowed to leave when the deed was done. Sometimes a real ugly beast found herself there and if no guy wanted her she got stuck there for like 4 years since even the biggest goober could bang 10/10s with his pocket change.

Pre-Islamic Arabia had some very strange sexual customs, such as noblemen being able to sleep with the wives of lesser men whenever they wanted.

Even the way the adultery prohibition and punishment is outlined in the Islamic scriptures indicates that group sex was very common at that time (like multiple noblemen gangbanging one commoner's wife).

The ancient Aryans who migrated into India around 2000-1500 BC had a well-attested tradition known as the Asvamedha - the horse sacrifice.

Oral sex was in general frowned upon by the ancient romans. The mouth of a roman man was supposed to be used for oration and barking orders. Even women who practiced it were looked down upon. Prostitutes who provided such services were said to have bad breath and rotten teeth.

"Whores of the alleyways" are contaminated from giving oral sex; Catullus refers to "the foul saliva of a pissed-over whore."

"The bad breath and rotten teeth that are attributed to performing oral sex represent moral decay and a general corruption of the mouth's positive functions as the organ of a citizen's persuasive speech."

Sexuality was a always an instrument of social regulation. In many older societies for example, older men would control the political sphere aswell as the sexual one, by way of arranged marriages. This way they also kept younger, ambitious men in check: they allied against them and didn't allow them to marry.
This practice survived in africa until the 20th century.

Gerald of Wales is an extremely unreliable source.

>>367658
Yes, I've actually read this article in full. It's highly unconvincing.

Fact of it is, the Irish kingship ritual is described nowhere other than in Gerald of Wales' account, at the same time as his family was winning huge tracts of land in the Norman invasion of Ireland, an invasion mainly justified on a portrayal of the Irish as being barbarous de facto pagans.

What are you talking about? Assuming the Irish ritual is real, it matches up with the Indian one perfectly, except with the roles of the king and queen reversed.

>>
>>367750
>Assuming the Irish ritual is real

Which is utterly stupid.

>The Roman one less so

Entirely no connection, other than the animal being sacrificed. There is nothing, other than possibly the origin date for the ritual, to link it to the concept of kingship.

Even then, what evidence do we have for the Indian ritual?
>>
>>367750
Even if we were to assume Gerald was telling the truth, there are still significant differences.

Gerald doesn't even explicitly state the king has sex with a mare.

Even if he did, the genders are entirely reversed.

The Irish ritual focuses on consumption of the mare by the entire kingdom, the Indian ritual has no feasting.

The Irish ritual has no goat, the Indian one does.

And if we are to believe this is part of some "Indo-European religion" (and I may remind you there are those who question if such a people even really existed) then why are there no other similar rituals between these far flung and highly different cultures?
>>
>>367750
Even if both rituals were actually real (and in the case of the Irish one, this is almost certainly not the case) it requires far less suspension of disbelief to say they are simply coincidence.

Let's look at the facts

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse_sacrifice#Comparative_rituals

In every ritual, the horse is sacrificed and dismembered with its parts distributed

3/4 rituals involve the inaugeration of a king (Indian, Irish, Norse)
1 is vaguely related to kingship (the horse's tail being brought to the king's palace in the Roman ritual
2/4 involve explicit copulation with the horse
3/4, possibly 4/4 are sexual in nature, The Völsa þáttr mentions a Norse pagan ritual involving veneration of the penis of a slaughtered stallion, some argue the cauda (tail) in the October Equus is a euphemism for penis

And another fun fact, in Hittite law copulation with animals was illegal, except with horses and mules.

Yeah, they don't agree in every detail. But remember that these rituals are recorded from around 500 BC to 1000 AD, about 3000-4000 years after the Proto-Indo-Europeans lived, so some, or a lot of divergence is expected.

In feudal Japan a wife accused of adultery was punished by having a group of men ejaculating all over her. The reasoning was this: if you're taking it from someone else, you're going to get it from everyone else. The humiliation would often drive the woman to commit suicide.

Puritan women could sue their husbands for not giving them enough sex.

Vibrators were originally medical tools. Orgasms were used as treatments by doctors for the terrible feminine affliction called "hysteria".

In China the virginity of women was rigidly enforced by family and community and linked to the monetary value of women as a kind of commodity.

Etruscan women commonly had sex with men who were not their husbdans, and nobles would throw casual orgies with young boys and girls involved as well. They saw no shame in raising illegitimate children.

n 2/3 cases of the horse copulation ritual it is HIGHLY UNLIKELY TO BE TRUE, in fact the Norse saga was likely directly influenced by Gerald of Wale's account.

The Roman ritual was only superficially related to kingship, the significance of the Regia was NOT that it was the site of the king's palace but that it was the office of the Pontifex Maximum. There is still NO EVIDENCE the ritual actually dates back to the time of the king's or involved a celebration of kingship IN ANY WAY. Remember, Romans HATED THE KINGS; any celebration of the king's likely would have been thrown out completely with the formation of the Republic.

>2/4 involve explicit copulation with the horse

And again, one of those is HIGHLY UNLIKELY, the other is only moderately unlikely.

>3/4, possibly 4/4 are sexual in nature

Again, 2/4 are ALMOST CERTAINLY UTTER FICTION, the Roman ritual is simply NOT SEXUAL IN NATURE. I have seen no good evidence of the truth of the Indian ritual.

>The Völsa þáttr mentions a Norse pagan ritual involving veneration of the penis of a slaughtered stallion, some argue the cauda (tail) in the October Equus is a euphemism for penis

That is an utter rationalisation. The focus in the case of the October horse is not on the tail, it is ON THE BLOOD OF THE TAIL. Why would you have a stand in for the penis? Why not just use the penis?

>Hittite law copulation with animals was illegal, except with horses and mules

Again, I'll have to see proof of that but it's still far more likely to simply be a coincidence.

> around 500 BC to 1000 AD, about 3000-4000 years after the Proto-Indo-Europeans lived,

I don't know why you think these are so likely to be fabricated. It's true that Gerald of Wales would profit from painting the Irish as barbarians, but the existence of other strikingly similar rituals among related people should corroborate his account.

>That is an utter rationalisation. The focus in the case of the October horse is not on the tail, it is ON THE BLOOD OF THE TAIL. Why would you have a stand in for the penis? Why not just use the penis?
Well, one problem here is that a horse's tail, according to some wouldn't be dripping by the time they got it to the Regia. A penis on the other hand has lots of blood.

And even if the Roman ritual is not related, the Indian, Irish, and Norse ones would still be enough propose that the Proto-Indo-Europeans had a similar ritual.

>Try 8000 years.

>I don't know why you think these are so likely to be fabricated. It's true that Gerald of Wales would profit from painting the Irish as barbarians, but the existence of other strikingly similar rituals among related people should corroborate his account.

No it should not.

In both cases the rituals only appear in SINGLE ACCOUNTS, written by Christians about Pagans, hundreds of years after the are supposed to have taken place.

Secondly the Irish are NOT similar to the "Germans" the saga relates to, who are supposed to somewhere in Romania.

It requires far less suspension of disbelief to say that either, it is a common stereotype about pagan amongst Christians or, far more likely I believe, who wrote the account of the saga had read Gerald's account and adapted the story to fit into his fatansy account.

This entire approach to the PIE it utter fantasy, you're as bad as those henge-bothering Neo-Pagans.
>>
>>369777
>Enlighten me then, what is the current view of PIE

The view put forward by Jean-Paul Demoule, as I myself saw in the Munro lecture he gave on the matter not one month ago, is that they simply did not exist, or at least not in the idea that they are a single common progenitor or all of Europe and certainly not in your view which is positively Atlanean.

Again, it's a myth. A fairytale cooked up in the 19th century to explain to atheist, scientific Europe why it was special, not to mention a good dollop of steaming Thule Society and New Age romanticism mixed in.

The fact of the matter is we have NO PROOF about Indo-European religion, if there even was a single Indo-European religion, if the Indo-Europeans even had a single culture, if the Indo-Europeans were ANYTHING more than linguistic group, and even that, it is debatable.

All of your examples either simply don't fit without making SEVERE rationalisations, to ignore or twist the parts of the ritual which just don't fit into place or simply almost certainly never, never happened.

Which is clearly the case

>the Indian, Irish, and Norse ones would still be enough propose that the Proto-Indo-Europeans had a similar ritual.

No. It's a theory. A very old one, which has been disproven and reworked time and time and time again.

>These people, like all other humans had a culture and religion

There is simply no proof for that. Even if there was a single language group it is purely an assumption to say they shared any kind cultural unity and even more fanciful to say that they were the progenitors of all European culture.

Your "theory" as to ritual bestiality amongst the PIE has been proven demonstrable rubbish, deal with it.

How did Indo-European language develop if not from an original group of people?
>>
>>369960
Personally, I don't know. That's quite a different discussion to your straightforwardly bollocks argument about horses.

Demoule would argue the Indo-European language didn't actually develop, since it isn't real. It's merely 19th century linguists cherrypicking examples of similarities and ignoring the vast differences.

For instance, if Ireland, Scandinavia, Rome and India all inherited rituals which focussed on a horse from the PIE, why do they all have entirely unrelated words for "horse"? Shouldn't they all be similar?

Hindi: घोड़ा (ghoora)
Modern Icelandic: hestur
Modern Irish: capall/each/marcshlua/marcra/beithíoch
Latin:equus

Show me the link.

No it isn't. There's absolutely no other way to explain the sheer amount of cognates and grammatical structures .

>There is simply no proof for that. Even if there was a single language group it is purely an assumption to say they shared any kind cultural unity and even more fanciful to say that they were the progenitors of all European culture.
No.
Languages before modern transport and communication, occupied small geographical areas over a limited time span, and were spoken by a set of close-knit communities-a tribe in the broad sense

>Your "theory" as to ritual bestiality amongst the PIE has been proven demonstrable rubbish, deal with it.
It's not my theory, and not it has not. There's no reason to believe the accounts of the Irish and Norse rituals are made up.

If you want to talk about the indians, use sanskrit. The word for horse is aśva. Which, as far as I know, is related to the french chevaux.

This example, that the hindi and sanskrit have different words for the horse, shows that your own argument is more complex and doesn't automatically dismiss the bollocks argument about horses.
>>
>>369993
All of this just seems like mad reactionary reasons in the face of overwhelming common sense.

That so many languages over such a wide area have so much in common, that linguists and etymologists can easily trace words from different languages back to the same origins. It clearly has the same origins. Listing some words with different origins or not linked doesn't change that.

YES. THERE. IS.

There is NO CORROBORATIVE EVIDENCE for the Irish ritual. The SINGLE ACCOUNT comes from a NON-CONTEMPORARY SOURCE who has proven to be thoroughly unreliable, and who has a VESTED INTEREST IN PORTRAYING THE IRISH IN A NEGATIVE LIGHT.

As for the Norse ritual THERE IS NO CORROBORATIVE EVIDENCE, AGAIN. The SINGLE ACCOUNT comes from a COMPLETELY NON-CONTEMPORARY SOURCE, which borders on SHEER FANTASY and written by someone who likely had access to Gerald's work and who has a VESTED INTEREST IN PORTRAYING THE PAGANS IN A NEGATIVE LIGHT. Hell, the account actually ends with the KING OF THE GERMANS CONVERTING THEM ALL TO CHRISTIANITY.

If you cannot understand why the evidence is problematic IN THE EXTREME you have no business being on /his/.

As for the Indo-Europeans, i:'m simply playing devil's advocate. Personally, I do think they were real, but I still maintain the idea had a singular culture which was the progenitor of all European culture highly assumptive and highly unlikely.

>>She excelled in raising a laugh by being slapped on her puffed-out cheeks, and used to uncover herself so far as to show the spectators everything before and behind which decency forbids to be shown to men. She stimulated her lovers by lascivious jests, and continually invented new postures of coition, by which means she completely won the hearts of all libertines; for she did not wait to be solicited by anyone whom she met, but herself, with joke and gestures, invited everyone whom she fell in with, especially beardless boys.

>>She never succumbed to these transports; for she often went to a supper at which each one paid his share, with ten or more young men, in the full vigour of their age and practised in debauchery, and would pass the whole night with all of them. When they were all exhausted, she would go to their servants, thirty in number, it may be, and fornicate with each one of them; and yet not even so did she quench her lust. Once she went to the house of some great man, and while the guests were drinking pulled up her clothes on the edge of the couch and did not blush to exhibit her wantonness without reserve. Though she received the male in three orifices she nevertheless complained of Nature for not having made the passage of her breasts wider, that she might contrive a new form of coition in that part of her person also.

>>She frequently became pregnant, but as she employed all known remedies without delay, she promptly procured abortion. Often, even on the stage, she stripped before the eyes of all the people, and stood naked in their midst, wearing only a girdle about her private parts and groin; not because she had any modesty about showing that also to the people, but because no one was allowed to go on the stage without a girdle about those parts. In this attitude she would throw herself down on the floor, and lie on her back. Slaves, whose duty it was, would then pour grains of barley upon her girdle, which trained geese would then pick up with their beaks one by one and eat. She did not blush or rise up, but appeared to glory in this performance; for she was not only without shame, but especially fond of encouraging others to be shameless, and often would strip naked in the midst of the actors, and swing herself backwards and forwards, explaining to those who had already enjoyed her and those who had not, the peculiar excellences of that exercise.

>>She proceeded to such extremities of abuse as to make her face become what most women's private parts are: wherefore her lovers became known at once by their unnatural tastes, and any respectable man who met her in the public streets turned away, and made haste to avoid her, lest his clothes should be soiled by contact with such an abandoned creature, for she was a bird of ill-omen, especially for those who saw her early in the day. As for her fellow-actresses, she always abused them most savagely, for she was exceedingly jealous.

Regarding Catherine the Great's alleged sexcapade with a horse I will detail you the following story about horse sex.

Everything I'm about to tell you I got from a book called Proto-Indoeuropean Language and Culture: An Introduction by George Forston.

Here's a link: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Indo-European-Language-Culture-Introduction-Linguistics/dp/1405188960?tag=duckduckgo-ffab-uk-21

I would highly recommend this book to any history fags. It's very in depth when it comes to linguistics, but if you've even had a cursory lesson in linguistics you should be able to grasp the basics of the book. It's very helpful for understanding the development of Indo-Europa and the cultures that follow.

Anyway continued in the next post ->

Anyway, the basics go like this. I won't type up the passage word for word, but throughout Proto-Indoeuropean cultures from Ireland to India there exists a practice of ritual copulation with a horse. This extends to both women copulating with horses. Typically, the copulation occurred to consummate the crowning of royalty. Additionally, the consummation sometimes included the roasting and consumption of the horse afterwards.

You mean her dower? That was actually really common pretty much everywhere. A virgin who married got a much larger sum than a widow who remarried. It's where the word dowager comes from.

Sorry, both women and men were known to copulate with horses. Forston expressly notes an Irish tradition and an Indian one from my memory. Possibly related would be from Norse mythology is the act of Loki copulating with a giants horse during the construction of a wall around Asgard and thereby producing the offspring horse Sleipnir, who had eight legs and was ridden by Odin.

This is conjecture on my part, but it is an additional example of horse copulation occurring within a Proto-Indoeuropean culture.
