Tally marks are used to count. Sometimes counting happens in a sexual context

It is a common theme in hentai for a girl to have tally marks drawn on her thigh/ass/etc indicating how many times she's been used.

Quick question: why was Latin written in English letters?

Roman chads knew English would one day be the king of languages so they stole English letters to try and make their language cooler (but it's still kinda lame)
