    Make sure to see a doctor if you have an erection that lasts more than 2000 years

    I can see the headline writer at the Guardian is having a little giggle to themselves.

    It can totally be a ritual object if we dedicate our masturbation to the gods

    “From related writings, we can deduce that this item was a ritual object used in the worship of Priapus, god of gardens and livestock among other things. Apparently priapic rituals involved drinking wine and thrusting the ritual object in particular ways, which worshippers believed would lead them to actually see the god. Notably, the ritual objects were often dedicated to a close friend, whose name would be engraved on the object in question.”

A place to meme about the glorious ROMAN EMPIRE (and Roman Republic, and Roman Kingdom)! Byzantines tolerated! The HRE is not.

RULES:

  1. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, bigotry, etc. The past may be bigoted, but we are not.

  2. Memes must be Rome-related, not just the title. It can be about Rome, or using Roman aesthetics, or both, but the meme itself needs to have Roman themes.

  3. Follow Lemmy.world rules.

Not sure where to start on Roman history?
