Members lookin Posted August 15, 2010 Members Share Posted August 15, 2010 (One from the vault, busted links restored.) Priapus, the God of the phallus and male sexuality, weighs his prodigious member. This is from a painted wall at the House of the Vettii, in Pompeii. (The culture of Pompeii was abruptly ended in 79 A.D. by an eruption of mount Vesuvius.) He must have been very popular. I wonder if he ever escorted? He would have been a top, surely, and may have charged by the pound. According to Wikipedia, statues of Priapus, in full rampant splendor, were used in Roman gardens to promote an abundant crop, and to guard against thieves. Epigrams were included, so that would-be robbers didn't miss the point: "I warn you, my lad, you will be sodomised; you, my girl, I shall futter; for the thief who is bearded, a third punishment remains." "... If I do seize you . . . you shall be so stretched that you will think your anus never had any wrinkles." And to think I've been getting by with just a sundial!
