Codpieces and Booty shorts

2022-10-06 22:15:37.434375+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

So some of my Facebook friends are totally into guys in short shorts, and some of my Facebook friends are totally into Ren Faire costuming, and every once in a while I find a topic that crosses those cultural boundaries. A friend's post started with a different view of the costumed gentleman that's showing up in the preview here, which brought up some historical questions (like "is that blue really period?"), but went down a rabbit hole of Landsknecht, German mercenaries from the 15th Century, and... yeah. Codpieces and booty shorts for the win.
