[anotheoldgit]

'Erotic Art' eh?

Times don't change, if that had been done by two heterosexuals it would have been called pornography. :0)

Who's to say those guys were gay, anyway? Lots of culturea (past and present) see male sex as suitable for pre-marriage - er - relief.... doesn't mean the participants are gay.

um um a few from Pompeii:

Each inscription begins with a reference to where it was found (region.insula.door number). The second number is the reference to the publication of the inscription in the Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum, Volume 4.

I.2.20 (Bar/Brothel of Innulus and Papilio); 3932: Weep, you girls. My penis has given you up. Now it penetrates men’s behinds. Goodbye, wondrous femininity!

I.4.5 (House of the Citharist; below a drawing of a man with a large nose); 2375: Amplicatus, I know that Icarus is buggering you. Salvius wrote this.

I.7.1 (in the vestibule of the House of Cuspius Pansa); 8075: The finances officer of the emperor Nero says this food is poison

I.7.8 (bar; left of the door); 8162: We two dear men, friends forever, were here. If you want to know our names, they are Gaius and Aulus.


and for the gurlz - the Daily Telegraph - a sort of loose and left wing 'Daily Mail' carried the following earlier this year:

*** One inscription says: 'Nikasitimos was here mounting Timiona' ***

Ah yes, two guys just practising for when they married their heterosexual girl friends.

You got it, AOG :-)

// Times don't change, // aog

well of course they do, slowly AOG - the Greeks wouldnt have been as censorious at the time of writing

/the inscription has led the archaeologist to believe that soldiers may once have been garrisoned there./

So the Guards at Chelsea Barracks didn't invent it after all!

Looks like a town plan to me..,

There's some erotic art like this in the public loos at our local park. I think it's done in felt tip though.
