And I'll translate this passage for all the tit-loving men out there (again, from Galeano) Larry Send a noteboard - 25/09/2009 05:16:49 AM
Tits


In order to elude punishment, some homosexuals dressed up as women and passed themselves off as prostitutes.

At the end of the 15th century, Venice passed a law that required the professionals to show their tits. The bare breasts ought to be displayed in the windows where they offered themselves to passing clients. They worked at a bridge, near the Rialto, which is now always called the Bridge of Tits.

*wonders if any single sentences read lately come close to the glory of the Bridge of Tits, also referenced in Milorad Pavi?'s Second Body*
Illusions fall like the husk of a fruit, one after another, and the fruit is experience. - Narrator, Sylvie

Je suis méchant.
