This has been the case since rome, bottoming was scorned, nero fucked a man in front of a massive crowd of people it was only controversial when afterward he bottomed the man, in a women's get up :theory-gary: nothing is new under the sun.
similarly the vestal virgins were praised because they never had sex, and sexually harassing them or threatening to have sex with them would mean your execution as they were politically powerful as a result. they could basically choose a nuclear option with any guy that fucks with them and it made the senate even scared of them :very-smart:
if they had sex with men theyd also be killed so uh
rome was really wild about penetration. oh fun fact it was fine to be a lesbian vestal virgin cause yeah romans are weird. its also where catholics get their weird virgin mary shit from probably
Big true its all about men in Rome, the cult with women virgins that could also legally free any slave they touched and condem any man that look at her with lust to death including senators. They had other powers where they could intervene in tribunals and shit but im at work and too lazy to google shit.
With Rome sex with women on women essencialy was never recorded well because the logic was if a man wasn't present in sex it wasn't sex. So in the Roman mind a room with two women fucking each other is just an empty room. :pain: anyhow cant belive I wasted my time studying Rome in college.
yeah i looked into all the executions for vestal virgins once and not once did they state it was for messing with other vestals or masturbation or anything like that. they considered them 'daughters of the state' so having sex with any man (generally only an alarm when someone becomes pregnant) was considered incest and worthy of execution. wild shit. and since they were 'the state', they could free slaves. and generally if something super bad happened in rome theyd come under scrutiny and investigation because if a vestal virgin became unchaste it would invite calamity.
Thankfully Western Civ education is dying on the vine. In 20 years high school graduates won't know who Caesar was.
Its the only way to rectify the contractions :heartbreaking:
Cause very online zoomers who have never had sex conflate having no idea how to talk to someone they're attracted to with being a bottom
I mean uh... :top-use-words:
Marines are a low bar here, the only things they stick in themselves are crayons in their mouths.
I mean medics are trained to use their thermometers the fun way if they're forced to use them in the field for a more quicker and accurate body temp.
They call 'em "The Silver Bullet"
You need to formalize it so you can have a standard test
yeah if you don't want to break a glass thermometer and get mercury in a soldier's ass and blood.
which, I think that would be funny but the people running the military probably prefer to avoid such casualties, unlike civilian ones.
i'm way too hungover to look up the history of the technological development of medical thermometers
:edgeworth-shrug: it's more commonly seen outside of combat operations like at fobs, fireballs, and so on. You're more likely to see a tampon or tourniquet than a butt thermometer out on patrol.
I understand that when bored they, like Nausicaans, have a habit of throwing knives like darts into eachother's torsos in a game not unlike playing catch.
This isn't a recent development, but I agree with the sentiment lol
They say "suddenly" as if this hasn't been an idea since people invented gay sex
Thesis: Sparta good because manly man society
Antithesis: Sparta good because gay sex society
Synthesis: Sparta good because real men take it up the ass
the sacred band of thebes was based and gay pilled and whooped fascist spartan slaver booty regularly
Yeah what she said. Plus the Spartans only have a reputation for being badass warriors because they regularly picked fights with tiny Greek villages who were completely unprepared for war. When Sparta captured Athens they held on to it for less than a decade before their military dictatorship was overthrown.
also the bottom is the one in charge as they decide how far the top can go.
Arguably the most important thing to know about top/bottom or dom/sub relationships (other than the omnipresent "safe, sane, consensual") is that ultimately the person on bottom has all the actual power because the top/dom can't do shit unless they agree to it.
Obviously it's healthier to think of it as an equivalent relationship, but I feel like that phrasing makes it clear to shitheads who wants to dom what's actually going on.
I'm a top and it's the same thing with oral. The one performing oral is holding all the cards and I'm just along for the ride. :edgeworth-shrug:
Designating the size and rules of the playing field is important and also a part of the fun.
What if we're awkward with your sexuality together? .. aha ha, just kidding.. unless..? :shy:
