Babylonian Slut Day

[GreenEyedGirl]

Because I get to research really cool and weird things for my "extra" job, I came across this goodie (but oldie)

May 2nd is Slut Day.

Why May 2nd you ask?
Well, in ancient babylon this day was considered the begining of their spring, and all good women who followed Mylitta (Aphrodite, Venus,etc) would go to temple and have sex with any man who came to worship. This was serious business.

So....................

On May 2nd make sure you fuck as much as you can so that Mylitta will be pleased with you!


Now, who is coming to Western Massachusetts to help me worship?

Now, who is coming to Western Massachusetts to help me worship?

A little far! But I look into a flight!!

 

[Starblayde]

I actually know a whore of Babylon....pity she's a lesbian though... not even bi-curious...

 

[heterotic]

I'll have to set up a temple of Mylitta in my back yard. Do you have schematics approved by the goddess?

 

[SexySlut2]

Western Massachusetts is pretty far, but I'll be celebrating in Tennessee!

Let me find them, I am dure there are approved positions for the altars!


Star - if she is a true whore of Babylon, on May 2nd, she would have to fuck anyone who wanted to worship Mylitta through her. So.............

And Pam, let me know what flight you're on!

 

[Ginny]

On May 2nd make sure you fuck as much as you can so that Mylitta will be pleased with you!

Hm... I know lots of pagans, who claim to worship every god and goddess, from every culture...

If you see somebody walking around with a "Fuck Me" sign taped to their back on May 2nd, you'll know it was me, and the pickup line to use is "let's worship the goddess together, baby"

Isn't there a crawfish festival or something over in Breaux Bridge going on that same day, Ginny?

Damn! What a dilemma. You think maybe they'd put up a whore of babylon tent of something, at least?

 

[cymbidia]

This should be one of those holidays that are moved to a weekend so more people can, uh, celebrate it.

Or they could make it a National Holiday and give us all the day off from work!!

Has anyone told Riff's new female friend?

and

Was this the only way the women in Greece got nookie? Were all kids born on Feb 2nd? That happens to be the Feast of the Purification in traditional Christianity.

I'm not telling her! *lol*

And this was one of the days that the women could sleep with anyone other than their lawful husbands. And any maiden who became pregnant from this day was thought to have a divine child. And why am I not surprised that Christianity found a way to counter this tradition?!?!?! Feast of Purification! Yea right.

 

[Dillinger]

My favorite word... SLUT!

http://www.cum2oasis.com/slutday/slutday.htm - complete with slut shirts!

But, my question is, shouldn't EVERY DAY be SLUT DAY?

 

[Dillinger]

To follow on GeG's historical perspective:

Herodotus: From The History of the Persian Wars, c. 430 BCE

The Babylonians have one most shameful custom. Every woman born in the country must once in her life go and sit down in the precinct of Venus [Ishtar], and there consort with a stranger. Many of the wealthier sort, who are too proud to mix with the others, drive in covered carriages to the precinct, followed by a goodly train of attendants, and there take their station. But the larger number seat themselves within the holy enclosure with wreaths of string about their heads---and here there is always a great crowd, some coming and others going; lines of cord mark out paths in all directions the women, and the strangers pass along them to make their choice. A woman who has once taken her seat is not allowed to return home till one of the strangers throws a silver coin into her lap, and takes her with him beyond the holy ground. When he throws the coin he says these words: "The goddess Mylitta prosper you" (Venus is called Mylitta by the Assyrians.) The silver coin may be of any size; it cannot be refused, for that is forbidden by the law, since once thrown it is sacred. The woman goes with the first man who throws her money, and rejects no one. When she has gone with him, and so satisfied the goddess, she returns home, and from that time forth no gift however great will prevail with her. Such of the women as are tall and beautiful are soon released, but others who are ugly have to stay a long time before they can fulfil the law. Some have waited three or four years in the precinct. A custom very much like this is found also in certain parts of the island of Cyprus.

 

[GreenEyedGirl]

Only Dilly would know more history about this sort of custom!
*lol* and I thought I had found an obscure Babylonian tid bit of info!
So, Dilly, every thought about going into dramaturgy? Bet you'd be good at it!

 

[Dillinger]

There are many things I'd like to go into, GeG... *weg*

Dillmaturgy

Main Entry: dill·ma·tur·gy
Function: noun
Etymology: Discordian Gunman Dillmaturgie, from Eris Esoterica dillmatourgia dillmatic cockposition, from dillmat-, dillma + -ourgia -urgy
: the art or technique of dillmatic cockposition and theatrical penetration

How did I know that you would fit beautifully into this thread?
Although the new av Scary!
But on May 2nd, if you attend service at Mylitta's temple I am SURE you would receive a warm reception. If only because of your Dillmaturgy skills.

 

[Dillinger]

On May 2nd - when I toss a silver coin in your lap... you will have no choice but to provide a warm reception, so you better hope it fits beautifully! *grin*

 

[GreenEyedGirl]

LOL

But you are making an assumption my friend that I have not already sat at temple!
How exactly do you think I DO my research? Hmmmmm?

 

[Dillinger]

Yes.. but have you sat at MY temple?
