Games and Circus The most explicit recorded incidents of public sex
involving humans and animals activity are associated with the murderous
sadism, torture and rape of the Roman games and circus, in which it is
estimated that several hundreds of thousands died. Masters reports:
"Beasts were specially trained to copulate with women: if the girls or
women were unwilling then the animal would attempt rape. A surprising
range of creatures was used for such purposes - bulls, giraffes,
leopards, cheetahs, wild boar, zebras, stallions, jackasses, huge dogs,
apes, etc. The beasts were taught how to copulate with a human being
[whether male or female] either via the vagina or via the anus."
Representations of scenes from the sexual lives of the gods, such as
Pasiphaë and the Bull, were highly popular, often causing extreme
suffering, injury or death. On occasion, the more ferocious beasts were
permitted to kill and (if desired) devour their victims afterwards. Chimpanzees
and mandrills, both in fact ferocious and very powerful species of
primate: "made drunk by wine and inflamed by the odor of females of
their kind, were loosed upon girls whose genitals had been drenched with
the urine of female chimps and mandrills." The victims were often
virgins and not infrequently young children. One spectacle is said to
have included "a hundred tiny blonde girls being raped simultaneously by
a horde of baboons." (Masters, "The Prostitutes In Society") |
