So I watched the documentary everyone is talking about, not the one about the Menendez brothers or the one about the cold war, both on Netflix, both excellent, but the one about Lily Phillips, the only fans porn star who had sex with a hundred men in a single day. The short documentary about that day by British YouTuber, Josh Peters is straightforwardly titled. I slept with 100 men in one day. It's also surprisingly thoughtful and engaging and, And as I watched, I kept thinking about Messalina. Messalina was the third wife of Claudius. Claudius was the fourth emperor of Rome after Augustus, Tiberius, and Caligula. And Messalina, according to the sources, was a huge slut. And why shouldn't she be? Claudius was almost 50 when she was forced to marry him, and she was only 18.
She deserved better dick. And the men of ancient Rome were notoriously slutty themselves. But ancient Rome was a brutally patriarchal society where adultery, when committed by women, was a crime punishable by death. And when adultery was committed by men, it was a Tuesday afternoon at the brothel. Full disclosure, my Roman Empire is the Roman Empire. Anyway, Messalina, according to the sources, which are famously unreliable where the lives of the women of Rome's imperial family are concerned. I mean, they can't all have been murderous sluts or slutty murderesses. What are the odds? But according to the sources, Messalina challenged Rome's most famous prostitute, Cilia, to a fuck-off, a contest. Who could fuck more men in a single night?
The teenage emperors of Rome were the most famous whore in the world at the time. Famous fleeting. I had to look up her name. Anyway, Messalina won this contest by fucking 25 men in a single night. A number so shocking that her husband had her executed. Ironically, it was Claudius's next wife, his fourth and his last, Julia Agrippina, that assassinated him. Which just goes to show, sometimes the cheating slut you know is the zebra bat. Anyway, I watched the documentary about Lily Phillips that everyone is talking about and thought about how a shocking number in ancient Rome, 25 men in a single night, wouldn't rate a YouTube viral video documentary today. Immediately after the stunt, which is how Lily, who describes herself as a slut, describes this day, a fan-servicing stunt in which she literally serviced her fans, only men who subscribed to her only fans were eligible to... line up and have five minutes each with her. After it was over, Phillips broke down on camera and cried.
It's kind of like being a in a sense of, like, it's just a different... feeling. I don't know how to explain it.
Like... It's not like just having sex with someone.
Yeah, yeah. Just one in, one out. Like, it feels... intense.
like more intense than you thought it might.
Phillips has to leave the room. Everyone is focusing on and talking about this moment and what it means. And if I'm going to be honest, this moment threw me back into a moment from my own life, which only involved two other guys, not 100 men waiting in a line. It was something I wanted to do, something like Lily that I wanted to experience for my own reasons. But in the aftermath, I was a little overwhelmed. I teared up. I left the room. And no, you're not getting any of the hoary details out of me. But just because I teared up and had to leave the room for a minute to compose myself doesn't mean I regretted it or that I haven't done it again. That something you chose to do, something you wanted to do, stirred up big feelings, doesn't mean you shouldn't have done that thing or you shouldn't have been allowed to do that thing or that it should be a crime for you to do that thing. which is the argument some are making.
