Well, you know some of us actually had ancient Greek as part of the education, with all the different city states and stuff. While women in general were pretty much cattle then (as far as I remember even in Sparta they had no vote), in Sparta they were treated better than in the other city states. The idea of having sexual relationships among members of the army was fairly popular in the Greek culture, the idea was that a man would rather die an honourable death than be disgraced as a coward in front of his lover, and also that somebody might fight even harder when he'd see his lover in danger, than if it's his own hide on the line. If you read between the lines in Homer, it's fairly blatant how much homoerotic stuff went on there. Despite Athens worshipping Athena, women were treated fairly shabby there, well, not surprisingly, since Athena was a virgin, not born but jumped out of Zeus' skull fully armoured.... The wives were still kept as more or less breeding mares, despite the city worshipping a female deity... Actually religion always interested me because it's a pretty good indicator of the society, if you go a bit further back, the whole Greek pantheon originated in a mother/earth goddess cult (Gaia) and as soon as men realized that they play a part in pro-creation, the society changed. For a while Greek mythology and culture was a bit of a hobby (typical for linguists), the mix of East and West (Troy is one example) is particularly fascinating and the influence it had on their pantheon. As for 33, thanks a lot, I lay off the botox and the fillers then for a while.... Sex is sex, doesn't matter which orifice you employ. Different strokes for different folks, might not be my cup of tea, but if somebody else enjoys it, no skin of my back.
