I can't help but notice there is a large positive correlation between how much a society celebrates Pre-Lent Carnival and how ****ed up it is.

I saw footage from Carnival back in the late 50’s.

It was a lot less tacky.

My mistake. It was São Paulo, not Rio that was in the tranny news story posted earlier today. Still... gag.

13 samba schools... Yikes! Where do they get enough of the required virgins for such a large competition?

Good time to have the butt-floss concession.

The people who claim they’re there to watch the dancing are the same guys who bought Playboy for the articles.

This is a skin parade, nothing more.

Reminds me of the Super Bowl halftime show. Amusing and titillating to most. However wonder what effect the sight of Jennifer Lopez cavorting half nude on a stripper’s pole had on her 12 year old son and what his classmates said when he returned to school. Decadence has its consequences.

The consensus seems to be there are a great many trannys on parade.

I can just see the reaction...

“But mama, she’s a nice Jewish girl! You’re gonna LOVE her!”

Comment from Costa Mesa, CA:
“It’s a hedonistic, hyper-objectification of women. No thank you.”

Wow, a complete prude from California! Who would have thought?

Yep, all those women Samba dancers are being forced to perform at gunpoint. They obviously HATE being ogled and watched. Not one of them is enjoying it.
