Several years ago, before 55 gallon drums of personal lubricant were even a glimmer in my eye (incidentally they’ve sexed up their promotional material in an offensively heterosexist way), I would frequently find a reason to link this or similar videos of swarthy Greek and Turkish men helping each other lubricate for wrestling matches. Now if you watched the video all the way through you may have noticed that the combatants really get into their pants to lubricate themselves and that’s because it’s perfectly cricket for your opponent to get inside your pants and use your nether bits as a hand hold. While I hate to eroticize a purely platonic traditional sport, matches can fairly quickly look like a party in the back room of a Castro bar.
Anyway, I’m experiencing some severe hypotension (ICD 10 code I95.9) after slaving over a hot keyboard for hours to give you this serving of beef. I’ll leave you all with a pair of tumblrs where you can research this fascinating sport more thoroughly.

The bottom pic of the guy pointing his finger? Looks like my proctologist.
Is he single? Asking for
a friendme.I should have been more specific: His finger looks familiar. The rest of him looks like this.
Question retracted. Way to crush my dreams of having a fit doctor husband, Jimbo.
I don’t know, seems kinda gay.
Are you saying that one man can’t lovingly lube up another man’s body (including nether regions) without instantly being categorized as gay?
Get woke son.
SIV wants to oil up his chicken.
Meh. Still not as gay as soccer.
I think you mean “football.”
Either type.
Thanks, jesse. I needed a laugh, and you delivered.
Ditto.
“Erdem, you reach around the inside of my lubes up leather trousers and livingly fondle my junk 3 or 4000 more times, imma have you thrown off a minaret!”
[golf clap]
BTW, Pomp, is that an original (author?) illo from Starship Troopers?
I thought it was some hybrid between a metronome and a tick, hard to tell though at this resolution.
I believe he explained at one point that it’s a bag of doughnuts that became so moldy it developed sentience.
I should crop the image a little bit more since it’s not very clear. It’s a pen drawing I made in homage to a ladder climber I used to work with who had left a bag of Dunkin’ Donuts in his cubicle for so long that it developed a swarm of fruit flies over it one day.
Anyway, it’s crumpled-over Dunkin’ Donuts bag that mutated and became a living arthropod.
The arthropod definitely comes through. The bag I can seen now that you mention it, I think its that the top of the bag blends into the page response box so the curl edge lacks definition.
If you’re still slumming, let me know what you think. Logo and text aren’t really legible.
I’m still only seeing this.
OMG. I larfed so hard I’ve ended up with a coughing fit.
Oh, and this?: . . . and use your nether bits as a hand hold.
Owie. Got sympathy pains, can’t walk now.
Well, wrestling is one of the pure sports, after all.
This is the beginnings of Western civilization.
What’s the end look like?
like this
Jesus Fucking Christ
I’ve always maintained the high water mark of Western Civilization was about 1964.
Look how much we’ve fallen since 1965
Nothing you can’t clean up with a towel.
I object to the portrayal of men as nothing but sex objects.
Oxford Definition:
Threesome. Two women and one man.
Everyday I’m reminded of my inadequacy.
No, just every Monday (it only seems like everyday).
On topic, I think. Did anybody else watch the NCAA finals? God damn Penn State is good. I don’t remember the last time I saw a technical fall in the finals.
Those are some fine specimens.
And the menfolk are nice to look at, too.
Ah, a woman with an eye for rubber pants. Yes, those are some fine pairs of rubber trunks.
They’re the male equivalent of yoga pants/leggings*
*I do not draw a distinction between these two things.
Joey, have you ever been to a Turkish wrestling match?
I don’t know if I should be angry at the trite grandstanding and trashing of history or happy that these people are wasting their time on it when they could be cooking up more ways to rob me blind.
“The women honored are Joan of Arc; Israeli leader Golda Meir; writer Gertrude Stein; Eleanor Roosevelt and Harriet Tubman”
Is Joan a looker? ‘Cause that is not an attractive bunch.
Oh of course, Joan’s body is completely covered with armor

What did Eleanor do other than marry well?
She was a statist so beloved by the NY Times.
If they want to honor women who have made a positive contribution to people’s lives, how about the fleshlight girls.
Hedy Lamarr, preferably from Ekstase
All day
That’s Hedley.
Now we’re talking. Hot, female engineers.

Priorities Jesse. You should have been booking your trip to see these matches in person.
I’d go back to Turkey in a heartbeat. I’d prefer it were pre-Erdogan, but I can make do.
In that first pic, I’m not sure if an optical illusion or not, but the one guy seems to have his arm down the other guy’s pants to the elbow. Is that a legal move?
Safe [maybe], sane [not so much], and [presumably] consensual.
Now if you watched the video all the way through
*hangs head in shame*
Did enjoy the comments on them, however.

+Skyrilla Homosexcuality is shamefull from Turkey…Because we are muslim…Turkish Oily Wrestling is heroism and belligerency.
I love the ‘muslims hate gays’ bit. Damned near every one of them are. Personally I could care less about that.
The rampant pederasty on the other hand…
