http://www.guardian.co.uk/germany/article/0,2763,1451509,00.html Archaeologist finds 'oldest p*rn statue' Krysia Diver in Stuttgart Monday April 4, 2005 The Guardian Stone-age figurines depicting what could be the oldest pornographic scene in the world have been unearthed in Germany. Archaeologists have discovered what they believe to be the 7,200-year-old remnants of a man having intercourse with a woman. The extraordinary find, at an archaeological dig in Saxony, shatters the belief that sex was a taboo subject in that era. Until now, the oldest representations of sexual scenes were frescos from about 2,000 years ago. ______________________________ The cavemen were either really desperate back then or the archaeologists were really high. What next? Opening a box of Cracker Jacks and discovering copulating popcorn?
Birds do it, bees do it Even educated fleas do it Let's do it, let's fall in love In Spain the best upper sets do it Lithuanians and Latts do it Let's do it, let's fall in love The Dutch in old Amsterdam do it Not to mention the Finns Folks in Siam do it Think of Siamese twins Some Argentines, without means do it People say in Boston even beans do it Let's do it, let's fall in love Romantic sponges they say do it Oysters down in Oyster Bay do it Let's do it, let's fall in love Cold Cape Cod clams, 'gainst their wish, do it Even lazy jellyfish do it Let's do it, let's fall in love Electric eels, I might add, do it Though it shocks 'em I know Why ask if shad do it Waiter, bring me shadroe In shallow shoals, English soles do it Goldfish in the privacy of bowls do it Let's do it, let's fall in love ---Cole Porter
So THAT's where the MATURE genre comes from... OR Please, no interviews... no interviews... no autographs, either... please...
That is wrong. Greek vases and plates had all sorts of orgies on them and they date back farther than 2,000 years ago. That has to be a typo.
I've always known the germans were very open about sex, but I didn't realize it was a trait bred millennia ago...
There's an series of Indian temples in a place called Khajuraho that are p*rn from 900BC. An example is below. I hope this doesn't cross the line of BBS decency An example:
The wrestling is probably a pick-up technique... or a type of foreplay. You know those ancient Greeks. "Everybody rise and bend over for the Greek national anthem."
dude that place is freaking crazy i been there once as a kid my dad was telling me not to look at the walls at all also there is a temple in japan dedicated to worshipping the male gentalia. couples go there to pray to conceive a child. i saw a program on it on tlc years ago they have phalluses of all sizes, wooden ones in the gift shop and all its crazy.
We really are a repressed society when we consider the sculptures of the Temple of Khajuraho to be p*rn. Through many cultures there has been a strong connection between ecstatic and even sexual imagery with religious experience. For instance look at St. Theresa's face in this Bernini sculpture.
I wasn't attempting to actually have it labeled p*rnography. I realize that it was intended to be instructional, and for that matter what do you have against p*rnography?
Reminds me of that scene in the Birdcage where they are trying to figure out what are on the bowls and Diane Wiest says, "It looks like boys playing leap frog."
1.8 Billion years ago. Homoerectus composes thought. "He never offers me a second bananna." Grabs bananna, peels, pauses, and composes second thought, "I wonder where he's going off to."
