[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] As I said before pertaining to the ancient Greeks: [QUOTE]By the way, the reason why homosexuality and pederasty was so rampant in Classical Greece was because of the sexual and gender views that Greek men had at the time. Classical Greece was extremely patriarchal and hypermasculine society. Women were secluded, except prostitutes, and women were considered as creatures so inferior that the only meaningful sexual relationships involving equal partners was between men! And boys reaching puberty were expected to have some sexual rendevous with mature men as a rite of passage into adulthood. Warriors cohabited especially during times of war etc. etc. There is an interesting book by Classicist Eva C. Keuls called Reign of the Phallus. It gives a very in depth look at sexual politics of Classical Greece and how it pervaded everything in their society!
