inner dork: Oneida, New York and Ancient Babylon

In the 1800's, the Oneida, New York residents gave every man within the community the right to have "marital privileges" with every woman of the community.

...no word on how the women felt about this... They might have thought it was, alrighta there in Oneida, or they might notta. (oh, I kill me!)

Babylon, a hotbed of religion and sexuality, required that all women serve as prostitutes at the temple before getting married. Historians report that unattractive women had to serve sometimes three to four years before finally being chosen.

...no word on how the grooms felt about this... They mighta thought it wasn't so alrighta. Then again, they might notta.
