Lupercalia
A pagan holiday or the beginning of Valentine’s Day?
In Ancient Rome, Lupercalia was celebrated on the 13, 14, and 15 of February. A celebration of fertility more than love, where the young men would strip naked and use dog or goat skin whips to spank the backsides of young women in order to improve their fertility.
Why did we let this tradition go? Sorry, I allowed my imagination to wander. The Christian church may have decided to celebrate Valentine’s Day in the middle of February to Christianize this pagan holiday. Things are tamer now but no one can tell what happens behind closed doors.
What kinks you're into.
Or how you'll spend your night or whole day.
I know how I'd like to be spending mine.
How are you spending your weekend?

I'm not sure which picture is the hottest the first or the last. I think I'm in love or maybe it's just lust.

I think I need a cold shower now, I'm burning up! lol
I'd love to spend weeks locked up with the second last picture lol
Goat skins?? Thankfully holiday traditions changed...
Glad the tradition has changed as I'm really not into getting beat with a goatskin!lol
I'm thinking that sounds like a lovely tradition, updated to use velvet floggers instead :-). I'm for #3, he's gorgeous!
A bunch of coworkers & friends are meeting up to watch another coworker playing in a Blues band...so we will be dancing, chatting, a few drinks & having lots of fun...

I like that last guy. He looks like is just waiting for "her" to obey his every command.
I wouldn't mind taking that guy's hand and spending the weekend with him. I'm certain we could think of some things to do!
Im spending my valentines with my loved ones! But I sure wouldnt mind some of the hat eye candy company!
Hi Annie, love your eye candy.
Annie, there might be something to that Roman tradition... though, updated, of course.
Love the black and white photo often that makes for a more sexual feeling.
