Dear Crim - it's great to hear from you again. I missed you ;) And what work you did on that topic. You seem very involved with your research, Well done. I certainly won't bother to summarize homosexuality in Euope since Ancient Greece Rome, and the Renaissance. Like I care. But I will Quote Winston Churchill: "The real traditions of the British Navy are rum, buggery and the lash."

And how about that Pope Benedict and his "hunky" (not my word) private secretary?

Seems like everybody in power has their own body man aka "Reggie Love".

Ferstay?

Nice crabwalk and attempt at a bait an switch...too bad the british buggery was between MEN , not MEN and BOYS which is STILL an islamic tradition....

Which is ironic seeing as the penalty under sharia law for homosexuality is Death.
