Wtf syria

>Elagabalus referred to Hierocles as his ‘husband’, and delighted in walking around with black eyes after insisting that his brutish lover should beat him up. But even all this was apparently not enough to sate the Emperor’s strange desires. Dressed as a woman, he also visited the taverns of Rome at night in order to play the prostitute.
>Later, he set up his own brothel within the palace compound, and would stand in the doorway naked, soliciting customers with ‘a soft and murmurous voice’.

When will Jow Forumsfags realize queer shit was normal in ancient culture

Retarded dinasty with emperors who unironically lasted less than a year each of them (except for the first two or 3)

roman culture***

no.
greek culture too.

Pederasty needs a fair pretext for approaching the young and beautiful,
so it pretends friendship and virtue. It covers itself with the sand of the wrestling-floor,
it takes cold baths, it plays the highbrow and publicly proclaims that it is a philosopher and disciplined
on the outside - because of the law. (Dialogue on Love, 752 - a.)
I maintain... that our citizens must not be worse than fowls and many other animals which are produced in large broods,
and which live chaste and celibate lives without sexual intercourse until they arrive at the age for breeding;
and when they reach this age they pair off, as instinct moves them,
male with female and female with male; and thereafter they live in a way that is holy and just,
remaining constant to their first contracts of love: surely our citizens should at least be better than these animals.
(Laws, VIII. 840 d - e.)
If any Athenian shall have prostituted his person, he shall not be permitted to become one of the nine archons,
nor to discharge the office of priest, nor to act as an advocate for the state,
nor shall he hold any office whatsoever, at home or abroad, whether filled by lot or by election;
he shall not be sent as a herald; he shall not take part in debate, nor be present at the public sacrifices;
when the citizens are wearing garlands, he shall wear none;
and he shall not enter within the limits of the place that has been purified for the assembling of the people.
If any man who has been convicted of prostitution act contrary to these prohibitions, he shall be put to death.

wrong

That's some gay shit, no wonder Romans removed him.

ancient romans confirmed for nordics

Slandering political figures was as common then as it is now.

Only in SOUTHRON "culture"
