yes

I mean we can adopt the diverse local culture

why did writers have special words for homosexuals and apply them to notable people including Emperors?

get stinger missiles to down enemy helos or jets

were Socrates/Plato just highly abnormal?

What special words did they have for homos

the entire greek and roman homosexuality myth relies on two pieces of art that are forgeries.

why did Plato feel perfectly safe writing about the virtues of homosexuality

no, that's not true at all

that's not even remotely true

what about sparta?

Does anyone have a link to the CBS interview?

the textual evidence is way more than the material evidence

@Nerthulas Socrates and Plato was heavily edited in the 16th century.

Where did Plato write so explicitly?

The Symposium in its untranslated form is entirely different to the translations given.

19th Century fantasies

do you have a copy of the Symposium in its untranslated form?

it's in <#634427147787829258> @Hermitage

where did you get it?

scroll up a couple videos

also, what you have is an alternative translation

Ah thx

All the sources are in that book

since you probably don't speak ancient greek

@TheUserNameofPeace symposium

They completely got the translation wrong

first of all, I don't think this even touches on Rome

it just says Ancient Greece

and ran with it

imagine not reading Plato in original ancient greek, are your iqs below freezing point?

ancient Roman authors regularly used words indicated homosexuality about notable people

example

@Nerthulas Homosexuality in Ancient Greece as well as in Western Rome was punishable by death.

If there were any cases, they would have hidden it.

depended, sometimes just ousting or social death

why do Roman authors write that Roman Emperors engaged in it openly?

that they fucked traps or something?

(((ROman)))

Because history is edited by christian monks who were gay.
