    Not that I actually consider the Bible to be an authoritative source on morality (see: slavery), but are those faithful to the original texts? I only ask because it’s my understanding that sexuality wasn’t viewed as a straight-gay spectrum back then, but instead as a dominate-submissive spectrum. Like, if they were to actually have a problem with same sex acts, it was more to do with messing with the social order than any inherit sexuality problems.

    Is that the “lay with another man” bit? I’m pretty sure there’s arguments over the original text, and scholars think it originally meant “don’t have sex with little boys” not don’t have sex with men.








  • A gimp is any of the following:

    1. A cripple
    2. A particular kind of BDSM role
    3. Twisted silk, worsted, or cotton with cord or wire running through it, used chiefly as upholstery trimming.
    4. (in lacemaking) coarser thread which forms the outline of the design in some techniques.
    5. fishing line made of silk bound with wire.

    The last three I got from the internet.
