I can't believe I wrote "cardinal" rather than "carnal" knowledge.
I blame the Catholics.

I guess cardinal knowledge could be if you slept with Wolsey

Yeah but wasn't there another Bible verse that said the exact opposite -- that brothers should marry their dead brother's widow -- that Henry simply glossed over in the divorce complaint?Yes, that is Genesis, the story of Onan, I think. Has stuck in my head since I read "The Boy Who Fell Out of The Sky". Fuckin' bizarre. |

I'd rather sleep with Cranmer.

Cranmer always struck me as a prude.

I refuse to watch the movie. Another vehicle for Natalie Portman to display one of the most dismal fake British accents ever (second only to Julia
Roberts')? I don't think so.

Might be worth it for 2 hours worth of Scarlett Johansson's heaving bosom.

Joshua had Jonathan Reese Myers' BIG, fat EIGHT INCH COCK in his mouth. The only reason worth watching the show.
Want that dick. Oh, yeah. He's gay, too. Which is really HISTORICALLY inaccurate. BUT HOT. |

That, and the fact that she didn't have carnal relations with his brother before Arthur died. I love how he turned down Anne of Cleves for not being attractive enough - did they not have mirrors in England, you fat fuck? edited beecawse I cant spel. |

If I recall correctly, his biggest complain about Anne of Cleves was that her breasts were too big.

I thought it was that she didn't speak English, was ugly, smelled bad, and was too thin. I'll have to go read The Wives of Henry VIII of again.
I'm pretty sure that he weighed about 3000 pounds and had the aforementioned festering leg wound by that point. Of course, she probably got the best deal of them all since he basically paid her off in return for an annulment and she agreed and retired to her estate in the English countryside. |

Did y'all know Anne Boleyn had 6 fingers on her left hand?
Things I learned about this series.... they had paved roads back then (not cobblestone - but blacktop) they preferred the 17th century style carriage to those historically accurate the women liked to wear low cut sex-ay Playboy Halloween Tudor dresses rather than the tightly bound dresses that made the women look like they had no chests that they used to wear back in the day. |

countries with a significantly poor population today.

So what was the big symbolism of him tearing into that swan dish thingy at the end?
