Was having their exposed cock and balls swinging around when they charged into battle disadvantageous for naked warriors?

The idea was to excite the Mediterranean bitches who were living in the garrisons sexually so they would leave their R1’s/ G/ J/ E cuckold husbands and it would demoralize the entire army.
>>
>>18491052
No. It would distract the medbug soldiers, who were naturally homosexual, by arousing them.
>>
>>18491052
I thought I read something about fighting naked not really being a thing. Was it a misinterpretation of something? Someone refresh my memory
>>
>>18491052
The Celts have the largest cock of all wh*tes. The sight of which would've spread fear and terror amongst enemy ranks realizing they had to hear back home to distract their wives from this truth.
>>
Celtics = sub-sahara African
Roman/non-latins Italian = North African
Greek = Eastern African

>>18491052
This is false celts never fought naked

Thr only people who fought naked were the Arabs, see the chronicles of Dhiraar the naked warrior

It was an advantage because the thought of the booty being unable to get away was enough to intimidate and petrify the enemy forces. One of the worst fears of a straight man is getting deep dicked in the manhood and having no spokes afterwords.
>>
>>18491108
There's a thought that it really just meant "without armor" (i.e. because their society didn't produce that much) and not literally nude
there's also a thought that it was real and done as an intimidation tactic, AFAIK it's still debated
>>
>>18491052
Not disatvantageous at all if they happened to have a BGC (Big Gallic Cock) which could serve as flail, field standard for gathering troops, or as a powerful psychological weapon by waving it proudly to rally support amd intimidate the enemy.

Spoken like a true booty warrior.
>>
we all gonna act like your dick and balls aren't going to shrink up in a fucking BATTLE?
your dick doesn't swing around like you're out of the shower steam when you're running around outside in 50 degree weather stabbing dudes
>>
>>18491052
Most attacks are to the upper torso, arms. It's where you have the longest reach.
The hilt on the sword is too big, it would have been tight to the hand.

Celt society has sophisticated metal working. Chainmail was Celtic. They also had leather.
How well distributed it was among warriors...
>>
Being bare chested was common among Germans
>>
they gave them pants in rome 2
>>
>>18491052
I've tried exercising naked and my balls bouncing around causes discomfort. Anyone else?
>>
>>18492557
It's fine to do dips naked but everything else is terrible
>>
>>18492307
>How well distributed it was among warriors...
exactly lol
Gallic elites had armor but it was a very unequal society by antique standards, and the masses didn't.
>>
>>18491052
What the illustrations never show is that with the adrenaline of battle, they were probably rock hard
>>
Most tribal wars were more about demonstrations of bravery and "counting coup", not wholesale destruction and conquest. There were occasionally desperate wars of expansion and conquest, but these were a lot rarer than "traditional" wars which were more about young braves proving themselves in daring raids and duels. Such wars were to steal animals, ceremonial objects, or women, and for young men to earn their reputations as blooded warriors. Often, nobody would even have to die, only suffer humiliation that could be repaid in the next ceremonial war.

This sounds silly, but it was a way for warriors to remain practiced in case a real war for survival erupted, and it also gave those rash young men brimming with testosterone something to do in a semi-structured way.

>>18492573
counterpoint, it's pretty gold in the north of Europe, so there was probably some shrinkage
>>
>>18492557
Feels liberating but yeah a little distracting when you start doing cardio stuff. I like being free from restrictive clothing, but for exercise I usually still wear some snug underpants to keep my nads under control.

Fighting naked in a desert seems even more unwise that fighting naked in general.
