Tens of thousands? Never read anything like that.
Moslem “culture” may have been influenced by Greeks but also has the natural roots of barbaric Arab tribal customs. Treatment of women in ancient Greece and Rome does not compare in any way to Muslim treatment of women.
Additionally, the pederasty in much of Middle Eastern Moslem “culture” is pretty open. There have been threads on FR not long ago about the boy dancers in Afghanistan, plus many reports of people who have worked and served there. It’s open. And as nasty as anyone could ever imagine.
The greeks did have a highly inferior view of women. Aristotle is a profound example. He felt and argued that women and men had a different number of teeth in the mouth, he never even bothered testing this theory on his own wife! The Greeks were also viciously in a double-standard of gender. The Greek Olympics, even though some people argued in literature otherwise, were all-male athletic events. In addition, Sparta frequently condoned outright infanticide. Even though it was not explicitly dictated as infanticide against baby girls, the image of the time portrayed the man as fit for the role of fighting wars, and it is implied that this gender prejudice also encouraged making a great number of the unfit babies thrown to die and rot in the gorges and hilltops to be girls. Sparta also had numerous surplus men, which drove it to be incredibly aggressive in it’s military operations. Sparta was, in many ways both known and implied, similar to the way Chinese society has become today.
I understand full well that the Arabian nomads (Bedouins) only believed in infanticide of baby girls as the unfit babies. And desired population control.
There is plenty of sentiment against open homosexuality, unless you can get away with it (i.e. you are rich or shut up some of your former “relations”) Iran is the example which I mentioned. Homosexuals have received public executions in Iran for some time, or at least those charged and convicted with the specific act. The Koran does prescribe death for those caught specifically practicing sodomy, otherwise, other kinds of acts are acceptable.
