Christmas is fetish season #5 – Anal – Brown love is real love

Posted on | December 17, 2008 | 9 Comments |

Since it has been noticed that I missed one of the topics from the poll, I thought that I’d better go back and do it…So this week’s fetish post is going to be all about something the Greeks taught us – the pleasures of brown love…

Oh and the pics are all-yuri for Joku (Note to self: “Yuri” and “anal” are tags which are often not found together)
Anal sex is probably one of the oldest of these fetishes – I bet people were having buttsex before records began. I’m not surprised if somewhere there is a cave painting of a couple indulging in a bit of trash compacting. However, the most famous of these early practitioners that we knew about were the Greeks (and the Romans).

Ancient buttsecks

It has long been the stuff of legend that the Ancient Greeks indulged in various forms of pleasures of the flesh, often with teenaged or underaged boys as well as with their wives and indeed, this even persists in Greek plays. The joke that Greeks all indulged could be compared to 4chan /b/tard memes of today. However, it is unclear whether the practice was as widespread as the public thought. As I have covered before in previous fetish months, the Greeks practiced a form of “patronism” called pedagogic pederasty (similar to what was also seen in feudal Japan) where older men would take on younger boys to tutor them in the arts and various disciplines. However, though clearly this relationship often broached the traditional bounds of mentor and student, there is little evidence that anal sex was condoned. In fact, there is evidence to show that acts such as penetration which violated the masculinity of the boys was seen as shameful.

Thought doubtless some went ahead anyway.

In the Roman age there was a similar view in which the “recipient” as it were of the buggery was seen as having his very masculinity violated. However, this was not so of the man doing the violating, and it is clear that many Roman men made use of this fact (without being exclusively homosexual, it has to be stressed), often with young men of lower status (slaves, called puer delicatus (delicate boys)).

The church officially denounced anal sex in the Middle ages and since Christianity has had a firm hold of most Western countries from this point forwards, it has become almost officially taboo until fairly recently. However, in recent years, the outing and promotion of homosexual culture has probably had a part to play in the undemonising of anal intercourse and the rise of popularity amongst both homosecual and heterosexual couples alike.

It has long been said that the primary beef that religion has with anal intercourse is that it is not procreative and therefore sinful. In both Judaism and Christianity, anal sex is considered a sin through the story of the Sodomites (telling of a race who gave in to various sins of the flesh and were punished – though the reasons of the punishment wer not 100% clear). However, interestingly I read that heteroseual anal sex is not mentioned in Jewish texts and therefore one would conclude that it is generally allowed!

So no ham, but hot beef injection is AOK.

Sorry to any Jews reading. ^^;;

Brown love in the 21st century

As I already alluded to, heterosexual practice in the dark arts is steadily increasing, possiby because of the increase in tolerance of the homosexual culture and also because of the general climate of sexual liberation. Several surveys show an increase in heterosexual indulgence over the late 20th century, though most disagree on the figures. US studies show a figure in 2005 of between 30-50%, fairly similar figures for men and women, whereas previous studies in the 1990s showed more modest participation at aroun 20-25%. To put things into perspective, the proportion of gay couples indulging in brown love was recorded at around 57% in the late 1990s.

Obviously this varies between nations and there is a factor of bias since some cultures would be more prone to admitting that they dipped the rod in the fudge pipe than others.

Why not anal sex?

So let’s start the discussion with the downsides. First of course, there is the medical angle – HIV aside, there is a mind-bogglingly long list of infections that you can catch from someone else’s chocolate factory, so its no wonder some people shy away from it. HPV (Human papilloma virus) for example, well known for its role in cervical cancer is also passed on by anal intercourse and can increase the risk of anal cancer. And of course, if your partner is, say, not a very nice person, then pain and anal trauma (ouch) is a definite downside. However, I must stress that studies have repeatedly found that there is no increased risk of anal incontinence associated with anal sex. So there.

Psychologically, there is the ickyness of course – since there is (rightly) an imprinted repulsion from faecal matter in most of us (scat fans aside). But perhaps the most interesting psychological point to note is the association with homosexuality. Since anal sex started off (we assume) as primarily a homosexual practice and many, if not most men are absolutely terrified of being mistaken as a homosexual and having their masculinity torn away from them in front of their very eyes, it’s interesting that it is not seen as more taboo. Perhaps it is a symptom of its rise in popularity amongst heterosexuals that although some men would revile it as an association with the gay populace, most view it as almost business-as-usual.

Religiously, obviously there is a barrier in terms of the SIN and the SINNING that stops you getting into heaven because you ANALLY PENETRATED your WIFE.

Ahem.

So let’s just step away from that mildly blasphemous comment and onto the more interesting stuff, shall we?

How did that get in there? (Nearly) 101 reasons to have anal sex

Why have anal sex? The reasons are multifold and multiplex. Herewith flows forth from the trashbin of my twisted subconscious all the reasons by which a woman or man might end up with a phallus rammed up where the sun most definitely don’t shine. (Written by Love)

1. Whoops, wrong hole!

- Maybe not the best reason, but a very good excuse. Just remember to duck the slap in the face.

Y: Is this really possible? Last time I checked the alignments required needed to be pretty precise. So best steer away unless she regularly stuffs household objects the diameter of a Coke can. In which case you’re on the home stretch anyway ^^

2. Keeping ones virginity

- Perhaps not the the first thought that comes to mind; particularly in this age, when it feels like all the other kids at school are at it like rabbits by the age of 9 and 3/4. However, back in the days of yore and arranged marriages, woe betide you if your newly-bedded husband discovers that someone else has already taken a slice of your black forest cherry cake… Taking the path less well trodden may well have been a viable option for horny lovers and conscientious rapists.

Y: I’m not sure I’d be able to keep a straight face if my husband was pumping away above me saying “I’ll go slow since it’s your first time” when I’d been having it up the butt with my harem of well-endowed gigolos from the age of 14…

3. Caveman contraception

- “Me Tarzan.. Want Jane”
“But Tarzan dear we’ve already got 17 children”
“Grr…”
“OK fine, look I’ve done some research, and Yuribou says that you can’t get pregnant through this newfangled ‘Anal Sex’.”
“Ug?”
“Yes I was confused too, but if we read more maybe he’ll provide some instructions or something”
“Mrph Mrph”

4. A tight squeeze (for the top)

- For those of you less well informed, tighter is nicer.

5. Fill ‘er up (for the bottom)

- A wise man once said: it is easier to fit a camel through the eye of a needle, than for a man’s kiebasa sausage to fit into a girl’s nether caboose. But with a good squirt of KY-Jelly it’s a whole different story.

Y: And for your information Wikipedia, it does generate its own lubrication.

6. PAIN

- We shan’t beat about the bush here – oh wait, we are… (Y: apologies, that was my joke >_<) But lets get things straight. It hurts. Rather a lot. At least it can do. But this is somehow what makes it nice. We are informed. By reliable sources. Remember GO SLOW! Unless of course you are aiming for point seven…

7. LOTS OF PAIN !!!

- Another popular fetish month topic: those old chestnuts, sadism and masochism. And what better implement of excruciating torture, than one’s own manly, erm, manlyness. If you enjoy inflicting or receiving large amounts of pain in your spare time, why not give this a try. (To be fair though, you probably already have.)

8. Love

- As we’ve just seen, fudge packing can involve much PAIN, but this also means that it also takes a lot of TRUST.Here at Yuribou we feel that trust is very important in all loving relationships. So really, what better way to express your exquisite love for one another?

Y: Though by that logic, guro is the ultimate expression of love ^^;;

9. Boy-love

- Indeed, what other way to express your exquisite bishie love for one another? One has to ask the question, back in the ’90s, what were that other 43% doing? (other than bishieing around and manly swooning)

Y: Frotting no doubt.

10. Boy-Girl-Boy love

- Men generally only have one er.. thing.. but girls have many usable orifices, as we are discovering in this post. Why not enlist a friend to help fill one that is going spare?

Y: And if you have a surplus of friends, why not let them join in! As we all know from hentai, girls’ orifices may look small but stretch wider than the Gulf of Mexico. 

11. But it’s naughty..

- Yes it is. But that’s the point of fetishes, isn’t it? Anal adds that extra point onto the H-coefficient scale of perversity, which is very important.

Y: Because I say so.

12. I heart scat

- Really?

Conclusion

So, what have we learned (if anything at all) from today? The first thing is that from what can be gathered, though anal intercourse started out as mostly a practice between men, with the rise of sexual liberation and the dying back of the religious stranglehold on moral jodgement, it has become more and more acceptable to heterosexual couples as well. The second thing is that people should be well informed of the risks before engaging in high-risk sexual behaviour such as anal sex with multiple partners. And lastly, IT’S NEVER OK TO STICK IT IN THE WRONG HOLE! (without asking nicely first, of course)

See you next time all…

    - Oh and the pics are all-yuri for Joku (Note to self: “Yuri” and “anal” are tags which are often not found together) – Thank you ^^’ I didn’t want to make you any problems sorry, but a yuri blog is a yuri blog isn’t it.

    Uhm by the way, this made my day its completely hilarious.

    Taking the pictures above as a little reason~ because you want to test some toys? Or maybe its more exciting, but youre right there are several reasons to do so. I didn’t try something like this myself and don’t really plan to but the most of your thoughts seem right to me. Isn’t that right Mr Tarzan. Ugh.

    Ah you should post more conclusions involving your H-Coefficent, it makes sense.

    Yes, this is a quite amusing take on this particular fetish. Congrats on another great post!

    I would have to say that I find the “must avoid any action associated with homosexuality in case I catch TEH GHEY!1!onE!!” attitude quite amusing. Seriously, why should liking guys make you less of a man? This blog proves that girls liking girls is far from a turn off for many guys… so why isn’t the opposite valid?

    I accept that there are old prejudices which many find hard to disregard even now… but even in the most sexually tolerant environments, the idea that masculinity and homosexuality are not mutually exclusive is derided. Some places on the internet are better for this than others, but so many posters seem to feel obligated to qualify statements with “I’m not ghey LOL but …” or similar.

    I haz a sad….

    Joku: Toys? I don’t know what you’re talking about *whistles innocently*

    SK: Its actually fairly hilarious since in the past, it was the manly men that indulged in buggery with the feminine boys and this was fairly common knowledge. I think its mainly the more recent past with the condemning of homosexuality for “religious reasons” that has subconsciously persisted

    Happy: Possibly! It’s on my list of things to do… I’ll probably have another poll about what people want covered in more detail soon.

    pkx: Thanks, but why?
