  18. CW: bareback gang bang

    CW: Sexual Realities / Experience

    🇫🇷 À l'époque, mon anus était un carrefour. Recevoir autant d'hommes et de spermes différents demandait une déconnexion totale de l'esprit pour laisser le corps devenir pur réceptacle.

    🇬🇧 Back then, my anus was a crossroads. Taking so many men and so much cum required a total mental disconnect to let the body become a pure vessel.

  22. Today I learned the US Navy spent years looking for Dorothy, the "leader of a vast ring of gay military in Chicago", thinking if they found her she would reveal the names of gay Navy personnel. Like Antifa, she never existed.

  27. i feel like just reading the polari dictionary is giving me so much information about the time and the culture of its collection and use. like specifically, the amount of terms for certain things and the lack of terms for others, and the variety of specific words.

    it's impossible to make conclusions without further context - are these remembered for a specific reason, what's regional, how were these collected? by whom, when?

    but it's fascinating how much a snapshot of language can still reveal.
