fat slave girl
Regina Servorum
The Japanese video of the couple crucified, with the girl's loincloth being cut off in the final scene, got me thinking...
Just what is it about being naked on the cross which makes it so much worse?
I mean, presumably you're going to die anyway, and you'd be in a lot of pain, but I imagine all of us, in that situation, would still give a gasp and a groan as the last shred of cloth covering our genitals was torn away.
Is it fear that they'll become the target for torture or abuse? Or something more primal? To lose control of one's reproductive organs, after all, is to lose an essential part of one's personality.
Or is it just that, to have that which society says we should keep secret and hidden from all except our most intimate companions suddenly exposed for all to see, really is the ultimate humiliating loss of power.
What do we think, boys and girls?
