Description
The card shows a caveman in a leopard-skin loincloth/toga carrying away a cavewoman he has just bonked on the head.

The card lampoons the popular belief that cavemen chose partners by knocking the women of their choice on the head and then dragging them back to their caves. It may also be a riff on opprobrious and abusive partners.
