Origins of Octo-Rape

[Endrik]

In 1814 a great artist Hokusai made a woodcut print called "Octopus and Shell Diver" or "Fisherman's Wife" like it's called in the western world.

Actually, its not PC around here to call it that anymore. Its to be referred to as "deep see lust" or "tentacle porn".

Which in turn inspired this great scene: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vph-p...layer_embedded

Skip to abut 2:10 if you don't want to wait.

Has youtube relaxed their "no boobies (unless it's a baby breastfeeding)" rule? The video posted in the "Party on Stage" thread also had boobies in it. Not that I'm complaining, of course.

Good we got the origins of that sorted out! Now, what about the other ones?

No, just the tubenazis haven't noticed it or no losers have reported it. Even years ago there were plenty vids with boobies... mostly those "fashion photoshoot" videos from Southern Europe and Southern America with non-english text and little views but a lot of boobies.

We can probably trace cock-dragon to some ancient Chinese symbolist erotica, I can't say for sure, I guess it could be a symbol for fertility ... I'm more familiar with ancient Indian and Arabian mysticism erotica which usually have other creatures.

The space love certainly has roots in early 21th century... the illustrations for H.G. Wells works. But I'm not sure where the sexual element comes from. Not a sci-fi specialist. Maybe it's later. Late 60's - early 70's saw the rise of erotica fused with different genres... monster movies, fantasy... sci-fi probably too.

I think you mean deep sea lust. Unless you're seeing deep lust.

Space Lust is just a lame homage to Forbidden Planet, nothing more, nothing less.
