No. You are entirely wrong....Restrictions on sex was only placed by the Jews early on and later by the Stoics and Christians. Pederasty was normal in Greece from early on and so was homosexuality...as was killing babies. Women were never equals of men—they were just breeders, but even they could ask the husband for permission to make babies with other handsome men. Of course, the husbands were the masters and decided.

Boys were men’s sexual recreation —Just like in today’s Afghanistan—women were not bothered much. In fact, later in Greece they had to make laws which encouraged men forming bonds with women so they would produce children.
