Many Germans doesn’t even knew about this until recently.
This is some weird ass backward-Island-tradition. Fucking Creeps.
Midsommar vibes
I’m much into Warhammer Fantasy lately and thought this is some fucked up Chaos-Ritual-Bullshit.
But yeah thats fits also very good 😂
That’s why you go with Krampus, Krampus cares about consensual non-consent
That article was even weirder and creepier than I expected. By a lot.
Also some interesting bits from a different Austrian tradition:
The Krampuses are now encouraged to only symbolically brush festival-goers, and not actually whip them.
THIS is what the liberal media wants for america
A centuries-old tradition in Germany’s Borkum where young men hit women on the buttocks with a cow horn using cow horn during the Klaasohm festival will be discontinued.
With a cow horn using a cow horn? Sounds like a difficult thing to do, holding a cow horn with another cow horn. I’d have assumed the coefficient of friction would be too low.
It’s just a missing period.
…with a cow horn. Using cow horn during…
And so will the women, after being spanked with a cow horn.
Ok, good first step. When do the prosecutions for physical abuse start?
As soon as individual victims dare to report individual perpetrators to the police. In this tiny, tight-knit island community. Where everyone knows everyone.
The police looked away from this for years, it’s insane.
Because they too are members of that community, they too grew up there. Not trying to excuse their inaction, but it all fits the bigger picture.
What the fuck, bruises and not being able to sit for a few days. That’s way worse than what I envisioned from the beginning of the article.
You dare to mock the sanctity of the spanking of the fraulein with the cow horn, Ed boys?!
A Rolf quote in the wild.
Very similar to the tradition on the nearby Dutch island of Ameland. Sunneklaas
Must be something in the water.
I swear we can’t have anything nice.
There was a counter-protest of women from the island to keep that tradition.
Womens rights don’t matter! This is for equality!
Disturbingly, it was because the practice was considered unfair to the cows.
“Are we the baddies?” Ask the people who also forbid any media coverage of their actions.

“Muahahahaha!”…
Sorry, a deep resonant haunting laugh is how I cope when faced with a difficult moral conundrum.
(Paraphrased from “Better Off Ted”.)
Such an underrated show!
I need you to weaponize a mouse.
Computer mouse or the animal?
I’ll get back to you.
