I’m not sure what my reaction is, but one of the possibilities is “Some people have too much time on their hands” … And I’m not sure I understand #17 …
Well I AM an evil dictator you know…
Anyway, if you wanna talk about weird cultures look at the Trobriander Islanders of Papua New Guinea. They’re a very strange bunch, particularly with the strange mix of taboos and how those correlate with what is acceptable behavior and how yams play an economic role because of sister-brother-husband relationships and etc… This week is majorly fucked, so I don’t know if I’ll have time to write up a good summary of what they all do.

I still cannot grasp the reality of people who just CAN’T accept the fact that when you go to a Sauna, you go there NAKED. Towels are like, a no-no! Starts rambling like the guy on Chatterbox…
“Nudity is real! I mean, take a look in your pants, c’mon! A lot of people are into nudity!”
Geesh…
As for the list…
27-) …Hence the name boner?
…and the various rituals to reaching adulthood are quite… …amusing…
I wish my Cultual Dimensions of “Business” course went into this stuff :mwahaha:.
Oh, and now because I’m probably a bigger grammer freak than X ever was because of the writing course I’m taking, hipothesis is spelled: hYpothesis:get it?: .

27-) Male humans are a exception among mammals when it comes to hard ons. We depend on blood filling some cavities in the penis for it to get erect. Other mammals have bones or other hard structures in their penis. A good portion of them can erect at will.
Spider monkeys, in addition to humans, do not have a (opens this mornings bio notes) baculum, which is what the penis bone is called. Apparently, some biologist and a theologian got together and came up with a theory that this is the missing rib that God took from Adam to create Eve. Of course, that doesn’t explain the spider monkeys.

Oh the irony.
Um…there’s a difference between a typo and a grammer mistake…uh, yeah that’s it…:runaway:

<img src=“http://www.rpgclassics.com/staff/tenchimaru/td.gif”> It’s spelt grammar, and you’re talking about spelling, not grammar. Your grammar was pretty bad in that sentence 
Yeah, yeah, I need sleep leave me alone :thud: :boring: .
The thing is, SG, many of those dumb laws may have actually existed at one point. However, many dumb laws that are claimed to have existed have NO proof that they ever existed. No historical state legislature transcripts, no finding them on the books, no asking the 110 year old man every small town has, etc. So, while I don’t doubt that there are stupid laws out there, I also don’t just blindly accept them as having existed since there are cases of these laws never existing.
OMG… This topic is tuning me on!!!
This is easaly the most interesting (and disturbing) thing I’ve read all day. :hahaha;

I came up with the hipothesis that they do it to keep their boyfriends from having sex with other female mantises. Quite a human behavior, I would say.
While I’d love to agree with that <.<… I think it’s more likely that they just get really hungry and decide to chomp down. I was reading some page on how to care for them and it said feed the females well beforehand or they’ll eat the males. I guess the females just see them as having a dual purpose, the perfect snack and the perfect mate.

My high school biology teacher gave a story called “Dueling Penises”. It was about the fights earthworms have to decide which one will carry the children (My science lesson of the day: Earthworms have both sets of reproductive means, if you know what I mean :get it?: ). They actually have like a swordfight with their penises and one that loses has to get pregnant.
I guess the females mantises do more work during sex, so they get hungry :hahaha; . Well, that and they’re probably pissed that they have to carry the children.

What the… “chop down”? You don’t mean females will actually… “chomp down” the male’s…uh… penis during oral sex when they’re hungry…

Reminds me of a PBS show I saw about flatworms. They had video of such an event. What’s even more bizarre is that the flatworms had two penises.
Ooooo… Dueling penises… One of 'em gotta hurt…

I’m not sure as to the accuracy of all this accuracy, and #3 in particular. I’ve never heard of that for Rome. I do know that pederasty existed in ancient Athens, but even then the boy on the receiving end lost status because he was considered less masculine. The young men were supposed to seduce, but the boys weren’t supposed to give in to them.
Yeah, that sounds a lot more like Greece than Rome, I was under the impression that the Romans were not very accepting of homosexuality.
I will never eat dinner whilst browsing in RPGC again:thud:
