From "Sketches of Russian Women's History" (1871):

In Cossack stanitsas (villages) one can see naked men dancing in the street, surrounded by a crowd of women, girls and children. One Cossack woman drank herself to the skin: wishing to collect money for vodka, she burnt her membrum and went naked through the village to collect donations for the burnt place; everyone was delighted by this joke and the Cossack woman was not left without vodka.

@ash @russia @bookstodon @histodon @histodons any idea what Shashkov would have meant by "membrum"? I would expect it to be a euphemism for penis.

@ash @russia @bookstodon @histodon @histodons Emerson on Facebook says, Membrum it seems can mean any member of the body, though usually it is a euphemism for penis.

Food Can Be Literally Addictive, New Evidence Suggests—Scientific American

“Cigarettes all over again.” Same pattern—decades of professional and common knowledge negated by producers. Another marketing downfall with a harmful P for Product. 1 Cor. 6:19
