There is a myth about, that has been around for many years, that all the Welsh are sheep-shaggers. This myth is, of course, exactly that: A Myth.
But where did it come from?
Well, you see, in years past, Wales had a big problem with sheep rustling (that is, the theft of sheep from people's farms), to combat this, sheep rustling was given the death penalty. It was thought this would act as ample deterrant for would be sheep-rustlers.
However, cunning as the sheep-rustlers were, they devised a way around the punishment. Were they ever to be caught attempted to rustle a sheep, they would instantly drop their pants, and commence shagging the sheep in question. They did this, because molesting a sheep carried a much lighter sentence, and so continued to rustle.
It is from the rustlers who got caught effectively with their pants down, that the myth of Welsh sheep-shaggers emerged.
I hope you understand now that calling welsh sheep shaggers, is merely encouraging them to recollect the cunning of their ancestors.
