Gay men and gerbils
With Wikipedia providing 24/7 access to information about everything, chances are you’ve used the site to construct up your wealth of sexual knowledge at least once. From pages on the basics looked up by preteens to articles on the type of arcane sex move you first heard of in a movie staring Russell Brand, Seth Rogen or someone of that sort, it’s all there. While on an adventure through the depths of Wikipedia, Betabeat discovered some of the most obscure and little-known articles relating to sex. Here they are:
1. Gerbilling
This urban legend of a sexual practice — also known as gerbil stuffing or gerbil shooting — involves inserting small live animals into one’s rectum for pleasure. As you could probably guess, this most often involves gerbils, but could be done with various small creatures such as mice or hamsters as well. Years have been spent trying to label this tale fact or fiction, with no triumph so far. One gossip columnist for the National Inquirer said, “I’ve never worked harder on a story in my life.”
2. Gay Bomb
This article details two theoretical weapons speculated by the U.S. Gas Force that would not kill nor injure
Nick G. asks: Please do one on the myth of people sticking compact rodents up their anus.
Few people are more creative than horny men and if you’ve searched around online for the more… rare ways people receive off, like we’ve had to accomplish EXTENSIVELY in researching this article… only for that reason…, you may contain stumbled across allusions to a bizarre sexual practice famous as “gerbil-stuffing”. But has anyone not named Richard Gere ever actually done this?
Before we retort that, the exercise, as it’s described on websites we’re not going to link because we care about your romantic relationships and don’t want your search history and ad recommendations to get as spicy as ours are now, involves taking a small rodent (usually a gerbil) and unceremoniously shoving the live and wriggling rodent into your butthole. To facilitate the stuffing of the gerbil, various sources recommend that a cardboard tube is sometimes used to “coax” the gerbil into its smelly modern home.
At this indicate, you might be asking yourself… “Oh God, why?!?!?”
Well, to begin with, let’s just say an awful lot of spicy things people do behind closed doors can
DEAR READERS: I’m off this week. To tide all of your boiling and/or kinky and/or sore asses over, here’s a column I wrote 15 years ago. Some newer readers might’ve missed this column when it originally appeared—some of you who were still in grade academy, diapers, or amniotic sacs back in 1998—so I’m rerunning it now because I still acquire questions about “gerbiling” on a daily basis.
QWe were having a little office debate about “gerbiling.” How does it work? Do all male lover men do this? Does Richard Gere? Does the animal get shoved up the anus with a toilet sheet roll only to suffocate seconds later? Is it the scratching or the act of killing an animal that gets people off? Why? Can’t this cause serious damage? What gives? —Curious Coworkers
AEvery time, my mail contains at least three questions about “gerbiling.” In the eight years I’ve been writing this column, I have never addressed the gerbil issue, but now, this week and this week only, I am breaking my silence. Clip and save this column, for I will never talk about gerbils again. Ahem. To begin, I would like to make a controversial statement:
I have n
According to a famous urban legend, a man had been admitted to hospital after his same-sex attracted partner put a gerbil in his rectum. Far from entity anecdotal, that odd sexual outing would even have a mention, ‘gerbiling’, and be practised by some gay couples. It is necessary to go back to the 80’s to trace its apparition, at a time when homosexuals where still perceveid as socially and sexually deviant.
‘Gerbiling’ as an Early Internet Hoax
The gerbiling story may have become acknowledged in France in the mid-2000’s, when a fake AFP News press release spread on the Internet:
‘Raggot the Hamster’ is on air
It even had its moment of glory when a radio journalist read this fake compress release (that he believed was true) on air:
A 1993 Fake American Press Release
This French fake press release is, in fact, a wo
