It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

No, the art does not depict bestiality, don't worry.

i'm not saying nobody has ever done bestiality but the rare un-faked examples have to be extraordinarily rare. like all the animals people talk about it with, besides like sheep are dangerous and these people would be assaulting them, probably while naked. no fucking way people manage to do that at any appreciable rate.

but there's a lot of fictional depictions of bestiality, a million lurid rumors and taboo tales. makes you think it's more common & possible than it is, but there simply never were 'donkey shows' or bestiality executions in ancient rome.

I happen to have a textbook that has some citations for the incidence.

Kinsey and colleagues found 8% of men and 3% of women did it at least once, and 17% of men raised on a farm (all self reported). This was in the 50s, but more recent studies have also found that a fair number of people have done it at least once. The large majority only did it once or a few times, often as a dare, initiation, or out of curiosity. And clinical zoophilia (where it's the primary means of arousal) is extremely rare and usually has a lot of comorbidities.

It doesn't happen often, clearly, but the research we have suggests that it's common enough to where you almost certainly have met someone who has done it.

You, uh, got like any evidence to support a negative?

[–] Dolores@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

there needs to be evidence of donkey shows, evidence of welsh people fucking sheep, evidence of Catherine laying a horse, and evidence of coliseum bestiality, before i should take any of that seriously

evidence of donkey show

you mean like multiple textual sources? You're not going to find photos of it.

gee i wonder why, despite cameras existing the entirety of their alleged existence? i'm being assured there's loads of video and camera evidence for every other bestiality so why would this be different

you specifically highlighted donkey shows, i was answering that jfc

but feel free to explain to me how a fucking giraffe could possibly fuck a human. just the geometry of that

[–] GreenTeaRedFlag@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

Sorry, I was thinking this was also about Rome because I had read about them using donkey sex as a form of torture/execution/entertainment, and forgot it was also supposed to have happened in the modern era. Mea Culpa

I'd like to introduce you to a fellow named Mr. Hands

[–] Dolores@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

i can't believe i'm actually having to explain that shipping a giraffe to Rome from Elephantine, then somehow training it to fuck anything, then somehow ?suspending? an unwilling participant and executing them with that giraffe is an unbelievable series of events
