> I.2.20 (Bar/Brothel of Innulus and Papilio); 3932: Weep, you girls. My penis has given you up. Now it penetrates men’s behinds. Goodbye, wondrous femininity! This is some Reddit level humor. > VI.14.43 (atrium of a House of the Large Brothel); 1520: Blondie has taught me to hate dark-haired girls. I shall hat them, if I can, but I wouldn’t mind loving them. Pompeian Venus Fisica wrote this. Amusing to see the blonde vs brunette debate even back in the day. Overall, the sense that I get from this grafitti is that people back then aren't that much different than us. They too believed they had invented sex very much like our generation and every other generation that came before it. To be honest, it seemed like they had a much better time.

  shit you weren't kidding. its just so amusing to find gems like this written millenias ago. it's the same shit you read on reddit Epigram X.63 Phoebus, all faggots ask you home to dine— Who feeds on dick is dirty, I opine. Translation by Joseph S. Salemi (first published in TRINACRIA)

    and this pure gold: Aegle was once in bed with double action— The eunuch Dindymus and some old geezer. She lay between while they both got her hot. Neither guy could make a go of it; One lacked equipment, the other was senescent, So Aegle burned without real satisfaction. What could she do? She fell down on her knees And prayed to Venus for herself and them: “Make Grandpa young, make Dindymus a man!”

      There is something else she could have done on her knees to make an old man young again, surely they knew of that

        What's that? She already said he is impotent. So "that" wouldn't work.

  There's a Martial epigram (can't find it) that goes something like : You shave your head to conceal your baldness, But how will you conceal your impotency?
