Did you read?

I have only heard people refer to a tantrum as a tanti, so maybe it is spelt tanty. I don't know but maybe someone on Mumsnet does.

When we went round the Camera Segreto I did begin to wonder if the Romans ever used any normal shaped oil lamps Galen I would have thought some of the less well endowed blokes would have been quite put off

Of course it's an interesting topic - and it's an old one too: it wasn't new when Leviticus was written...

Oh God!

Actually, to be fair! Psychologically, it's an interesting topic!
The Pompeins found it so!
There is a. Entire 'camera segreto'(?sp) devoted to it in the national museum in Naples!
It used to be closed to all except "serious researers" but is now open to all for a small fee!
We didn't pay it,but there was no one there so we walked round

How many men men can you you see for fornicating with animals, before you get bored stiff flaccid(if you're a man)

WTH was the point of the OP? To shock? (CBA) To amuse? (failed) To titillate (hope not ) Sorry poppy1 if you are still around, not interested.

To be fair, the BBC thought fit to report on it, although only locally. I think we could have done without the thread though, if only because it was cruel to an obviously sick individual. I'm surprised at the Beeb tbh.

Sorry, not rising to it.....

Well Ana probably lots of us did but no doubt you thought it was perfectly OK to use racist language!

Of course you did - what would we do without you, bluebell?

I CBA to report such a pathetic thread - did report the racist language - oh naughty naughty playground monitor!!! But come on - who really wants threads about bestiality - if there is an issue, it's a very sad one for the people involved in it and not a jokey thing

The modern version clearly has a different derivation

Apparently tanti is an archaic adjective meaning worthwhile.

Also strange that no one objected to it until one of Poppy's other thread was deleted....

Yes - so if he's really gone - good riddance!!

Isn't it a bit strange to start a thread about bestiality when you've just joined a forum? In fact, isn't it a bit strange starting a thread about it anyway?

Yes - as I say, there are at least two others at the moment more worthy of the description!

Not the thread itself, just the foot-stamping, shouty repetitive posts on a number of threads.

I don't think this thread's a particularly good example of that. There are others far worse.

A two-year-old's tantrum.

What on earth's a tanti?

This tanti is getting a bit boring now.

I don't know Poppy so I can't possibly know whether or not he is racist - and neither can anybody else, except by the language he uses.
