If we are to believe the Roman poet Ovid, the first glory hole was the one used by the illicit lovers Pyramus and Thisbe. Ovid wrote down their story more than two thousand years ago, but he was popularizing folklore that was ancient then. In Ovid’s discreet retelling, those two lusty young people merely used the hole between their houses to whisper through and make illicit assignations. But modern authors have elaborated this into an explicit dick-in-a-hole erotic tale. Human nature being what it is, my money bets that P&T wasted no time at all figuring out the best use of a convenient hole.
Per the pallid phrasings of Wikipedia on the subject of glory holes, we learn of the first appearance of a glory hole in actual historical documents. These tell us all about the legal tribulations of the unfortunate Mr. Guillam, who in 1707 was minding his own eliminatory business when “a boy in the adjoyning vault put his privy-member through a hole” and offered it for a lewd proposition. Mr. Guillam fled in surprise, but the whole sordid exchange was witnessed by a blackguard who accosted Mr. Guillam and attempted, apparently without success, to blackmail him over it. As we learn over and over, there’s nothing sexual that was invented recently!
Although glory holes gained a lot of notoriety in the 20th century as a venue for gay cruising and casual sex, the fantasy potential of the Pyramus-and-Thisbe situation has never been lost on pornographers. Having all kinds of anonymous sex through a hole is a notion that appeals to plenty of men and women both.
Outside the gay pornosphere, surprisingly, we don’t see as much modern glory-hole porn as you might think. Even a hard-working review site that does in-depth pornsite reviews like this AdultTime review in all kinds of porn niches, doesn’t list very many sites in their gloryhole porn sites section. Into this underserved market, fortunately, the vast army of hentai artists have thrust themselves with vigor and panache! As indeed the artwork in this post demonstrates conclusively.
I imagine the appeal of the gloryhole lies in its anonymity and no-strings-attached simplicity. A dick protruding from a hole has only one demand, and that demand is simple. A willing mouth on the other side of the hole will be too busy to ask you for anything that might complexify the exchange. No fuss, a minimum of muss, and everybody goes away happy!
