While on the subject of Christmas, I very much would like to share with you some information regarding this celebration. For the purpose of: a) sharing information, a wonderful, empowering practice I very much wish more of us were engaging in and b) because it’s also an amusing historical tidbit and I think it would be wonderful if y’all would do your young Lady the grace of sharing in a sort-of *private joke* with me at the end of this year when they start putting up all the lights again.
I got this information from the ever-knowledgeable Edd. Author of one of *The Sexiest Lipstick Fetish Sites Online* run by *The Sexiest Brain*.
*Much* thanks Edd ;-) (And even *more* for that delicious post on that vixen LizViscious… purrrRRRrrRRRrRRrrRRrrrr… I got snog-attacked, on more than one occasion, by a girl who looked just like her… Not to brag or anything :-) )
Lady Lipstick lassoes her wandering mind and reels it back in kicking and screaming.
Right, information…
“Yule Lights (ie, Xmas lights) came from a Norse practice of placing a light in ones window while celebrating Yule in the traditional way - which was having sex (Yule was a bestial fertility god). So next time you see bible-bashing types with big silly displays, notice that it's an esoteric billboard which means 'we're humping right now', they just don't know it.”
Oooh, also, “The Roman version was Saturnalia, the festival of Saturn, where much civil law was retracted for a week, and things like adultery and cross dressing were not illegal during the festival (and wildly popular)” That morsel’s for my much-ly appreciated T/S readers :-)
I wonder how shocked and deep into denial the Christian zealots (the scary, militant, uncompromising, self-righteous, crusading ones) would be and go if they knew this. Reckon this holiday’s become such a stressful, aggravating, greed-mongering commercial event that it couldn’t hurt to tell them. Spread the word if you feel so inclined!
*Change (/development/growth) is the universal law of survival*!
Oh, and before you rush off to do so, please consider the following photos your Lady’s premptive gesture, on all of your behalf, that we may all be celebrating Yule “the traditional way” next time round…
With much silken colour gleaming from lips and all sorts of other wonderful places ;-)
