Greek culture was different from ours, and the details of “gaydom” differ too. Even gay Greeks frowned on buggery, incidentally. Homosexuality there was more a kind of mutual j’ing off, details of which are not fit for a family friendly website.

I can see why you say that. This whole issue is edging towards a dark road, which is stepped upon once this question is asked: "Ancient Greece had democracy, which America has, and had a thriving homosexual subculture, which America has. Why is it that homosexuality and eventual pederasty end up coexisting comfortably with democracy?"

I'm just posing this question illustratively. It's not meant to be answered.

It was also a fairly narrow window in time, and it wasn't even all of Greece. More of an aberration than a norm. But Greeks will always be saddled with this localized and peculiar anomaly it seems.
