Is our collective memory of this trope (man ties woman to train tracks) all based on one instance of it in one silent movie, or was it really as widespread a clichΓ© as it seems to us nowadays? π€

I can't masturbate to this until I know which one is the cuck.
They took turns.
The horse
Good point, they are probably the one who gets ridden the most of these options.
Obviously the guy tied up.
Plus he's being stepped on, that pairs nicely.
Do women want to be tied up by Abraham Lincoln?
I'd argue that it's more of a Snidely Whiplash sort of situation. One of them is going to be tied to the rails and railed.
I had to look that one up. I'm just curious, about how old are you? I mean no disrespect.
Dudley DoRight cartoons were popular in the mid-60s, and featured Dudley as the Royal Canadian Mounty, the beautiful sweet Nell, and villain Snidely Whiplash. Snidely was always kidnapping Nell and tying her the train tracks for some reason. It was pretty much the same plot in every episode.
They may have been from the same studio as Rocky And Bullwinkle.
It was a segment on the rocky and Bullwinkle show itself.
Rocky & Bullwinkle looks like it was in regular syndication in pretty much every decade as late as the mid 2000s, so I guess as long as you were a kid during one of those times (or during the original run in the 50s and 60s), you could've been familiar with Snidely.
I know of βR&Bβ via video games that were made in the nineties.
Apparently also comic books were made in the eighties, ending idk when, then from 2013 to 2014 and 2017 to 2020. Plus there was an animated reboot βThe Mr. Peabody & Sherman Showβ on Netflix in 2015-2017, and another one βThe Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkleβ on Amazon in 2018.
being pinned against the wall and choked by abraham lincoln isnt the worst thing
I love your username.
jester might be my favourite m9 member :3
βUsually it is done by two or more people.β
Listen, I donβt appreciate being called out like this.
And now devising ways to roleplay while whacking it is my new mental rabbit hole.
When your kink is the trolley problem
Is he about to tie her to a train track?
That comes after.
Yup, right before he asks you to watch a lever for him.
and then along came jones, tall thin jones, slow walking jones, slow talking jones, along came longly legged jones...

Hmmm.... Is it AI or are they casually lifting 100 lbs with a bent elbow and no apparent lean?
His third arm is doing all the lifting. That's what makes it kinky
Not AI, I saw this picture years ago.
I mean, 100lb isn't all that much for a man in ok shape if proper form is used (and he's using proper form).
I'm not ripped by any means, and I know I can hold a minimum of 90lb one handed without leaning (the max my power blocks go to).
If you can do a pull-up, you can do this.
Swolbraham Lincoln.
-
Elbow is clearly bent
-
Stance is wide
-
Lean cannot be appraised from this angle
I'd argue that he only needs to hold that position for seconds.
He's standing with his back fairly straight, and is supporting some of her weight on his thighs. The natural way to hold a weight like that is bent elbow, held close to the body.
Not even from the shadow?
Why do the tracks need to be in a fursuit? π€¨
ngl i thought that was abraham lincoln
