Crucified males

[Deleted member jedakk]

In Rome of old all were required to go naked on the cross regardless of status or age ????

There is debate about whether this was always so, and this is one of the many uncertainties we have about the Romans' crucifixion procedures. What we do know about crucifixion was that it was slow, agonizing (we get the word "excruciating" from the agony of the cross) and humiliating. Augustine wrote about it in the fourth century AD:

The crucified, suspended on the wood of a cross, and attached to the wood with nails in
their hands and feet, are executed by means of an extended death. Indeed to be crucified
is not to be killed; for one lived for a long time on a cross, not because a longer life was
chosen, but because the death itself was prolonged, lest the pain be finished quicker.

pendentes enim in ligno crucifixi, clauis ad lignum pedibus manibusque confixi, producta
morte necabantur. non enim crucifigi hoc erat occidi; sed diu uiuebatur in cruce, non
quia longior uita eligebatur, sed quia mors ipsa protendebatur, ne dolor citius finiretur.
​

And Artemidorus in the second century CE wrote:

For they are crucified naked, and the crucified lose their flesh.​

Nudity was probably the rule, and if any clothing was allowed, it might have been a loincloth only. But if your goal was to make a humiliating spectacle of the victim, it would have been counterproductive to allow them any vestige of modesty. The agony of the cross forced a victim to writhe and struggle until they were exhausted, then the inability to breathe would force them to struggle some more. And as they struggled, modesty would soon have become the least of their concerns.

As far as consideration of status or age, Roman citizens were usually not subject to crucifixion, only slaves, non-citizens, rebels, etc. Apparently a freed slave might still be crucified, as was the freedwoman Ide by Tiberius as reported by Josephus. Regarding age, when all of the slaves in the household of Pedianus Secundus were crucified following his murder, it was noted that no distinction was made for either age or sex.

Interesting question.

An interesting game I enjoy playing in my mind is to observe people in everyday surroundings and visualize them stripped completely naked and hanging on a cross. Imagine every possible body type, male or female, young or old, fit or flabby, big or little genitals, small or large tits, hairy or smooth, stretched out helpless and nude and struggling in an obscene, desperate dance for all to witness. A delicious feast for the eyes, particularly if the victim was an enemy or someone who had mistreated you in some way.

A brutal crucifixion in a Roman arena. Another one of my more recent manipulations based on a bckground that I found somewhere here in CF.

Hope you like it.

Magnificent!!

Wow this is amazing. Having wicked sensibilities I am envisioning this as a crucifixion during the Roman empire. Executioners are always coming up with new cruel and innovative tortures. as the crowds sadistic lust must be sated. These "horns" are actually collection devices, available for purchase from crucifixion vendors. The customer may then select the naked prisoner of his choice, approach the cross and place this pouch over the genitalia, "milk" the victim.. This way not a drop is wasted. Perhaps this souvenir is an aphrodisiac or even serves as a good luck charm, much like the those nails scavenged from the remains of the hanging skeleton. I think these nalils were called amulets.

I can see also the crucified tortured with sticks, bloodied up a bit more. The crowd is pretty much given free rein here, just so long as the prisoners time on the cross is not shortened, mercy killings are verboten.

When I was a young boy I was fascinated by crucifixes like this one. It was very hard for me to control the inevitable erection I would get. This picture reminds me of one that one of my Catholic friends had hanging in his room. We would take off our clothes, wrap ourselves in a strip of cloth and stand at the end of his bunk bed with our arms stretched out and imagine we were hanging on a cross. It was hard to hide our "state of arousal" under our loincloths.

Same picture as above minus the loincloth...

This is a remarkable video, apparently the stations of the cross performed in NG or somewhere similar, from the language on Youtube it may be Irian Jaya. I took a couple of screenshots when it first appeared on M_C_R a week or so ago. This is as close as you'll get to a naked performance of this sort of thing in public.

You can understand how this sort of iconography may have an unintended affect on some viewers. It was probably always the case.

Combined with a cornu or dildo this could be a delightful torment.

Condemned always barefoot on the cross??

And maybe others secretly play that game with us?

I have the same fantasies. One is the before and after, fully clothed to completely naked. For example the first picture, this would be a situation of watching someone undress in a gym. In a court of law this prisoner is ordered to strip naked and approach the bench. I as a judge inspect his naked body up and down, trace his chest hair with my fingers. I always like them slightly hairy, good for cross torture. Honey will stick to body hair and attract the bees and flies. He will twist on his nails to attempt to ward them off, a futile gesture. The prisoner is lean but not weak. Body weight should not be an issue; his suffering and death will be prolonged. Moving my hand down I grasp his cock, twists his nuts as he grimaces. Yes a bit shrived but only because of his fear. The guards who had him last night have told me he's not bad, well proportioned. Having his ass rest on a sedile will make him erect, also prolong his execution.

I look at him up and down once more, then pronounce sentence loudly so all can hear. CRUCIFY HIM, bring up the next one.

Number two, He's a hottie; it will be a delight to see his fair skin become a scorched mess from the combination of scourging, and the the unrelenting solar intervention as he hangs from his cross. CRUCIFY HIM!

I then come to my senses, hurriedly dress, pack my gym bag and then leave. Little do these two know what I've been thinking, the momentary pleasure they have given me.

Both of these would look amazing hanging on a T cross!

Oh, and I almost forgot, crucifixions should be in trios. I and thinking Ashley here would complement the other two. He's smooth as a bowling ball compared to the other two. Variety is the spice of life. There should be something for everyone hanging up on wood, increases the crowd size at the execution site. Here Ashley is read his sentence of death on the cross, then turns around everyone takes a look. Isn't that a fine as to scourge. And speaking of ass, here assumes position to be fitted for his sedile.

Triple crucifixions are amazing. I've enjoyed several of these and was fortunate to hang on the central cross. The two twinks hanging each side of me were skinny and smooth and struggling on their crosses. Both were crying for help within a few minutes and those in the audience were obviously enjoying the show. They weren't accustomed to the cornu, and having their anuses stuffed like that was different from being fucked by a top. I rode the cornu as I turned my head to watch their helpless distress.

Wow. So the guy hanging naked on the center cross, his cock is so hard that it is sticking straight up in the air, inside the horn. What a turn on. I am surprised none of the spectators are rubbing themselves. Or doing nasty things to the naked men while they hang there. Is there any more of what happens next?
