I believe it’s depicting a non-sexual massage
I also believe that the artist was being a cheeky little shit about it to amuse themself on the job lol
Like some of the guys that made those little goblins, that hang on churches, cathedrals and such? They loved to include their own goblins in nefarious poses. They are usually at a height, where you don’t recognize it looking as a peasant from the ground.
Twas a healing massage which contained vitamin D
It’s totally normal that the masseur is not wearing pants. They always to this.
Pants weren’t even invented yet
Those were hard times
Butt sex.
Hard times make hard men.
Hard men make sore buttholes

That’s what I keep telling my buddy but he still insists on saying no homo when I do that
I don’t see how the snake could enter the cave like that.
Yeah all these woodcuts out here giving bottoms totally unrealistic expectations of the size and flexibility of the snakes out there smh

It always STARTS as a massage
It started off with a kiss, how did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss
and party every day
And, well maybe, just the tip.
NSFW this please
I just opened this at work and my boss doesn’t seem upset but she has recommended me a couple of Japanese comics. Verdict:sfw
Depending on the comics she may be trying to hint at something

I don’t know much about them so your guess is as good as mine. “Thomas no Shinzo” and “Love Stage!!”
He’s just getting a massage tho?

IDK, there’s a long history of homoeroticism in islamic art (largely poetry, here’s a write-up about that), it doesn’t seem entirely implausible that this could be some of that.
Who ru replying to?
Is the late 1500s “ancient” now?
Almost as ancient as your mum.
Gottem.
NSFW.
Looks more like he’s massaging the dude’s prostate.

Thank you. Censorship is for the weak.
Is it censorship when you clean up the off-topic, emotionally charged comments that don’t belong in a given community? This is a science sub, why bring up religion on a completely unrelated topic? There’s a good chance it was a bot anyway, they’ve ramped up the divisive posts to maximum.
Are you censoring the wood shavings when you sweep the shop?
You could make that argument for the whole thread, though. It’s just that LGBT stuff is treated as always on topic across a lot of communities.
There were times where the atheism and LGBT subs on Reddit were practically indistinguishable.
If this were a meme about whatever liberal this or that you were talking about then that would be the case. This is a science meme about archeology and , to not be improper, labeling things as something they probably aren’t. For example, smooth well-worn wooden penises (made of non-splintering wood even) and calling then fertility symbols or good luck charms. Yes it does look like its a legitimate back massage in the image, just done in a very nontraditional way that makes it look like 2 dudes connecting on a deeper level, which is what the meme is referencing.
You’re responding to the account that wrote the original comment. Dismissing people’s opinions as “wood shavings” with some half-assed, pooh-poohing comparison feels anti-intellectual.
You brought up pooh. If I were to go on an anti-China rant now and it was deleted, I wouldn’t complain about censorship.
*Scratch noise* You wonder how I ended up here…
omg they were roommates!
