Our Beloved “Spartacus” And The Birth Of The Jockstrap

Ancient Rome was a delightful time filled with gorgeous gladiators, loose sexual mores, and scant clothing, but nothing as glorious to the tiny scrap of athletic gear that would one day become the fetish of millions. Behold, the jock strap!

Yes, this week "Spartacus: Blood and Sand," our favorite show about sexy men fighting, didn't have as many cocks as last week, but it had something even better: our men bouncing about with their bodacious butts in what can only be described as the historical version of the athletic supporter. That blond specimen with Spartacus is Varro, who looks just enough like Aquaman that we are totally casting him in our Justice League fantasies. We even got to see Varro fuck a woman this episode, and we'd include that clip if we didn't think it would make you boys shout "Ew, boobies!" Anyway, he and Spartacus are quite the little butt buddies. Not as close as gay gladiator Barca is with his little slave boy, who we were introduced to this week, but we're going to have to wait until next Friday to see them fuck. Oh, it can't come soon enough.
