Yet today, the practice is universally abhorred, the attraction viewed as aberrant, and instead of being viewed as a positive relationship which is conducive to a boy's development, pederastic relationships are invariably viewed as corruptive.

Why was this so common in the past? Why did people believe that these relationships were somehow beneficial to a boy's development?

It's just that other, secret side a lot of white people have. It is a a lot like the gay thing in America where fags reproduce by touching kids, right? So there HAS to be a surprising about of American whites who have indeed molested their own children in secret if there are so many fags everywhere. There is no other explaination. Makes you kind of look at white people a lot differently than you used to in light of that.

He mentions the myth of Ganymede and Zeus, where Zeus abducts Ganymede after being captured by his beauty, although in the version of the story that Homer recounts, Ganymede was abducted to be his wine-bearer. In later stories, it's more explicit that he was abducted to be Zeus' lover. Most scholars agree that the practice of institutionalized pederasty developed after Homer's time.

It's not propaganda. The Greeks were renowned for practicing pederasty even by the Romans. Anyone who has any familiarity with Greek texts knows that it was an actual practice. The three most famous Greek philosophers (Socrates, Plato, Aristotle) all talk about pederasty, and Greek texts tell us that the practice was common and legal in most cities:
>[12] It seems to me that something must also be said about the love of boys; for this too has a bearing on education. The other Greeks either do as the Boeotians do, where man and boy are joined as couples and live together, or like the Eleans, who get to enjoy the charms of boys by making them grateful; there are also those who wholly prevent boy-lovers from conversing with boys.
>[13] But Lycurgus’ views were opposed to all of these: if a man who was decent and upright admired the soul of a boy and tried to spend time with him and to make him his friend without bringing blame on him, he approved this and called it the noblest form of education; if, on the other hand, someone seemed to lust after a boy’s body, he laid down that this was the most shameful of all things and that in Lacedaemon boy-lovers should keep their hands off boys just as parents do not lay hands on their own children or brothers on their own brothers.
>[14] It does not, however, surprise me that certain people do not believe this: in most of the Greek cities the laws do not oppose men’s desire for boys. Thus the Laconian education system, as well as that of the other Greeks, has been explained. Which of them produces men who are more trustworthy and more modest and more self-controlled when it is necessary, anyone who is interested may judge for himself.

Solon's laws only prohibited a slave from having sexual relations with a freeborn boy. Solon was known to be a boy-lover and wrote love poetry about boys, which we only have one small surviving fragment.
>Solon's mother, according to Herakleides Pontikos, was a cousin of the mother of Peisistratos. And they were at first great friends, much because of their kinship, and much because of the youthful beauty of Peisistratos, with whom, as some say, Solon was passionately in love. And this may be the reason why, in later years, when they were at variance about matters of state, their enmity did not bring with it any harsh or savage feelings, but their former amenities lingered in their spirits, and preserved there, “smouldering with a lingering flame of Zeus-sent fire,” the grateful memory of their love.

>And that Solon was not proof against beauty in a youth, and made not so bold with Love as ‘to confront him like a boxer, hand to hand,’ may be inferred from his poems. He also wrote a law forbidding a slave to practise gymnastics or have a boy lover, thus putting the matter in the category of honorable and dignified practices, and in a way inciting the worthy to that which he forbade the unworthy.

>And it is said that Peisistratos also had a boy lover, Charmos, and that he dedicated the statue of Love in the Academy, where the runners in the sacred torch race light their torches.

But every quote in this image besides the Plato one is taken out of context, and Plato was supportive of pederasty in his earlier works. Xenophon was quoting the views of Lycurgus, the lawgiver of Sparta in the passage here >>508902818, where he continues to state that most people disagree with his views, and that pederasty is legal in most cities. That quote by Alexander is in response to being offered to purchase two boys as sex slaves; Plutarch in the same work describes Alexander as a boy-lover:
>Moreover, when he came to the royal palace of Gedrosia, he once more gave his army time for rest and held high festival.
>We are told, too, that he was once viewing some contests in singing and dancing, being well heated with wine, and that his loved boy, Bagoas won the prize for song and dance, and then, all in his festal array, passed through the theatre and took his seat by Alexander's side; at sight of which the Macedonians clapped their hands and loudly bade the king kiss the victor, until at last he threw his arms about him and kissed him tenderly.

The quote attributed to Aristophanes is a quote by a character he wrote in a satirical play. Aesop only makes fun of passive homosexuals:
>When Zeus fashioned man he gave him certain inclinations, but he forgot about shame. Not knowing how to introduce her, he ordered her to enter through the rectum. Shame baulked at this and was highly indignant. Finally, she said to Zeus: ‘All right! I’ll go in, but on the condition that Eros doesn’t come in the same way; if he does, I will leave immediately.’ Ever since then, all homosexuals are without shame.

Aeschines was concerned with the fact that Timarchus engaged in prostitution, not homosexuality. Demosthenes actually implies that Aeschines himself made sexual comments towards Alexander the Great, when he was a ten-year-old, in Against Timarchus, the same speech that this quote comes from.

>>508910581
But imagine why it feels amazing

>>508910654
Aristotle's comment in Nicomachean Ethics on homosexuality is in reference to sexual passivity, which you conflate with pederasty because you do not have the same conception of homosexuality that the Greeks did. He actually makes a positive statement on pederasty in the same work:
>This type of friendship is perfect in terms both of duration and everything else, and in all cases such friends receive from each other the same thing or something quite similar, which is indeed what ought to be shared between friends. The type of friendship formed for pleasure bears similarity to this perfect type. For indeed, good men are pleasing to one another. Likewise, too, the type of friendship forged for advantage. For good men are also advantageous to one another. And it is true also in the case of men motivated by pleasure or advantage that friendships are most likely to endure when each gets the same thing from the other, such as pleasure, and also when it flows from the same source, such as happens between witty people but not between lover and beloved. For lover and beloved do not take pleasure in the same things: rather, the lover takes pleasure in gazing at his beloved, while the latter takes pleasure in the attentions of his lover. But when the beloved’s youthful beauty fades sometimes the friendship too fades. For now the lover does not find the boy pleasing to look at, and the boy receives no attention. But many couples continue the relationship, if, as a result of spending time together, they come to love each other’s character, because they are of similar character.

>But if their erotic relationship is characterized by an exchange of advantage rather than pleasure, the two are less friendly toward each other and the friendship lasts less long. Those who are friends for advantage cease to be friends when it ceases to be advantageous. For they are not friends of each other but friends of profit.

>All 3 condemned homosexuality
Aristotle never condemns pederasty, he speaks positively of it at least once. Plato only disavowed pederasty in his final work when he was bitter and old, in his earlier works he was supportive of the practice. Socrates' speeches on pederasty in Plato's works make it obvious that (1) Socrates was attracted to boys, and (2) pederasty was a widespread institutionalized practice in Classical Greece; his position that pederasty should be chaste ideally could only have been expounded in a society in which there was a widespread, institutionalized practice where men had sexual relations with boys.

I'd somehow understand it if teens looked like femboys. But 99% of them don't, even though they look less manly. And note that it wasn't just sex, but pseudo romantic, too


I wonder if sexuality and not just the expression of it has actually changed it over time. Apparently high test can also lead to bisexuality/homosexuality and maybe it was more common back then in warring societies. In such societies deeply bonding with men to the point of sexual and romantic attraction may have been an advantage

Endocrine disruptors (artificial chemicals that are ubiquitous in modern civilization and disrupt our hormonal system) may also be influencing modern sexuality.

Anyway seeing how little the average woman is attracted to the average man and how most of them are pseudolesbians, perhaps male bi/homo sexuality isn't that bad, as it allows you to forego women.

The obvious problem with pederasty is consent and imbalance of power. Were the boys into it? The answer isn't quite clear

>>508911976
Only in a minority of societies which have practiced pederasty were the boys described as unwilling participants. In Rome, for example, the boys were often, although not always, slaves.

This guy basically ignores bisexuality 99% of the time except for a very brief mention.

But no one is seriously making that claim, as far as we know, most men who engaged in same sex practices also engaged in heterosexual sex.

False. This is a deliberate misinterpretation by academia.
What we know is that ancient societies in Europe didn't view homosexuality as a sexual orientation.
For the submissive partner, it was a form of shameful emasculation.
But the dominant partner was not viewed as manly or acceptable. He was akin to a rapist. Much like the rapist stripped a woman and her family of their honor, the dominant partner stripped a man of his virtue.
Both sides carried stigma and we have evidence of both sides' punishment, but they were stigmatized and punished for different reasons.

Pederasty was not intrinsically sexual. That pederasty was at times sexualized by a subset of the population doesn't make it all sexual.
Some Catholic priests sexualized their relationships with boys they were mentoring, that doesn't mean that it was standard or socially uncontroversial.

So actually it wasn't. Yes, there were instances of pederasty and the serious examples come from the Orphic and Herculean cults. Previously, when decadence wasn't supported similarly, there was virtue in the mentorship dynamic between Master and Student. For reasons that I frankly don't have a full grasp on, not being able to relate, Orpheus and Hercules were apparently fond of not just other men, but boys. In Orpheus' case, he was "torn to shreds" by the Maenads (see Dionysus). I guess he got what was coming to him.
But I don't think this renders Orpheus' poetry somehow boring and stupid and it also doesn't mean Hercules' Labors were futile nor inspiring.

>>508913865
You might be half right. But as far as Rome goes:
>But the dominant partner was not viewed as manly or acceptable. He was akin to a rapist.
This is definitely wrong
>Much like the rapist stripped a woman and her family of their honor, the dominant partner stripped a man of his virtue.
This is kind of right. Technically prostitutes, actors, musicians, chariot racers, and even gladiators were "stripped of their virtue" through the institution of infamia. Anyone who entertained others using their body gained infamia and therefore lower legal status. People really liked the gladiators though so they tried to make exceptions about them.

>Yet today, the practice is universally abhorred, the attraction viewed as aberrant, and instead of being viewed as a positive relationship which is conducive to a boy's development, pederastic relationships are invariably viewed as corruptive.
I think you misunderstand. It doesn't seem like the objective perspective is what necessarily changed. Instead, it seems like the dynamic itself is what changed; people don't just view it as weird now, but the relationships used to be Virtuous and not focused on pederasty, but mentorship. So no actual sexual interaction, but intellection stimulation and respectful instruction.
To be very clear, Plato and his friends abhorred such behaviors and lamented faggots in I believe Symposium.

There is no evidence that Hadrian was sexually involved with Antinous.
>indicative of just how accepted pederasty was in Roman society
Hadrian was mocked for showing any affection to the boy, and if it weren't for other Romans calling him a fag for weeping at the death of the boy, we probably wouldn't be talking about it.
>hatred of homosexuality and pederasty is not native to Europe
The Norse executed and exiled homosexuals.
The Greco-Romans stripped them of legal rights and in cases executed them.
Even sexual pederasty was a controversial topic, only practiced by a small elite, and even then not ubiquitously.

Almost as if institutional rape of boys is a bad thing. Molesting boys is how faggots are made, by imprinting. Decadence became softness and ended in destruction. This is why Jews support faggotry, they don't want a great civilization to exist because it always ends in their expulsion.

>For now the lover does not find the boy pleasing to look at,
The boy eh? Let's take a look at the text, shall we?

> οὐ γὰρ ἐπὶ τοῖς αὐτοῖς ἥδονται οὗτοι, ἀλλ᾽ ὃ μὲν ὁρῶν ἐκεῖνον, ὃ δὲ θεραπευόμενος ὑπὸ τοῦ ἐραστοῦ: ληγούσης δὲ τῆς ὥρας ἐνίοτε καὶ ἡ φιλία λήγει (τῷ μὲν γὰρ οὐκ ἔστιν ἡδεῖα ἡ ὄψις, τῷ δ᾽ οὐ γίνεται ἡ θεραπεία): πολλοὶ δ᾽ αὖ διαμένουσιν, ἐὰν ἐκ τῆς συνηθείας τὰ ἤθη στέρξωσιν, ὁμοήθεις ὄντες.
>These do not find their pleasure in the same things: the lover's pleasure is in gazing at his beloved, the loved one's pleasure is in receiving the attentions of the lover; and when the loved one's beauty fades, the friendship sometimes fades too, as the lover no longer finds pleasure in the sight of his beloved, and the loved one no longer receives the attentions of the lover; though on the other hand many do remain friends if as a result of their intimacy they have come to love each other's characters, both being alike in character.
He does not mention a boy anywhere. He continually uses one to another.

Just before this part where he is mentioning lovers he also says:
>καὶ μὴ μόνον οὕτως ἀλλὰ καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ αὐτοῦ, οἷον τοῖς εὐτραπέλοις, καὶ μὴ ὡς ἐραστῇ καὶ ἐρωμένῳ.
> but derives it from the same thing, as in a friendship between two witty people, and not as in one between a lover and his beloved.
He then proceeds to extrapolate with the case of lovers from above.

The only one seeing boys and pederasty here is you. And that is because you are an nonce yourself.
If people knew what you are irl, they'd happily kick you to death in the middle of the street.

Although I couldn't deny the Muslim and otherwise (Middle) Eastern populations considering the Bacha Bazi, I have to stress that Rome was certainly the one always fucking boys. They made up this grandiose story about how the Spartans were totally all gay, right?
Well who the fuck did Rome conquer, anon? Who did they displace or absorb? The Grecian culture, right?
The Grecians called themselves Danann, anon. Spartans were some of their fiercest warriors. It makes perfect sense to atrophy the memory-construct of such an archetype so it's inaccessible to a proletariat underclass in a modern world.
Don't you understand the depths of Roman propaganda? All Roads and all...
They didn't just make up stories about everyone raping boys, either. They also slaughtered entire ethnic groups for "eating babies" and "raping babies". Well it turns out, unsurprisingly, that Rome was the one with groves of children dressed as nymphs (see Tiberius and Capri) and trained-child orgies.
At risk of sounding rather brash and presumptive, I have to stress that all of your /his/fags are getting duped here, playing the consensus game. They mindfucked all of your, sucked up all your attention, fed you supplemental objectivity and convinced you to parrot their consensus-agenda rhetoric like little salves. Now they rule over you and laugh behind your back because they "killed your god", all of his descendants (well...) and turned everything he and his friends did on its head.

>There is no evidence that Hadrian was sexually involved with Antinous.
There is overwhelming evidence that Antinous was Hadrian's lover, which is why Hadrian had him deified, and is the sole reason why Hadrian brought a random, non-related eleven year old boy with him to Rome. It is consensus among historians that Antinous was the lover of Hadrian. The earliest sources which state in explicit terms they had a sexual relationship were written by Christians within living memory of Hadrian:
>Another fresh divinity was created in Egypt,—and very nearly among Greeks too,—when the Roman king solemnly elevated to the rank of god his loved-boy whose beauty was unequalled. He consecrated Antinous in the same way that Zeus consecrated Ganymedes. For lust is not easily restrained, when it has no fear; and to-day men observe the sacred nights of Antinous, which were really shameful, as the lover who kept them with him well knew. Why, I ask, do you reckon as a god one who is honoured by fornication? Why did you order that he should be mourned for as a son? Why, too, do you tell the story of his beauty? Beauty is a shameful thing when it has been blighted by outrage. Be not a tyrant, O man, over beauty, neither outrage him who is in the flower of his youth. Guard it in purity, that it may remain beautiful. Become a king over beauty, not a tyrant. Let it remain free. When you have kept its image pure, then I will acknowledge your beauty. Then I will worship beauty, when it is the true archetype of things beautiful. But now we have a tomb of the boy who was loved, a temple and a city of Antinous.

It wasn't. These relationships were not sexual, but were mentorships.

There is a large variety of male friendships/mentorships and other relationships that helped build civilization that were non sexual but have been twisted to be presented as sexual only in the last 20-30 years.

However pedophilia has been deeply ingrained in most abrahamic religions as they are all spawned from Judaism which is a trauma based mind control cult based on child sexual abuse from the moment a rabbi cuts their foreskin off and sucks their dick.

Early child abuse creates a system of mind control

>>508911507
you touch on the main "issue" I think, which is interesting because these ancients were, regarding women, completely opposite to the environment of modern homosexuality which goes hand in hand with effeminacy and rule of women, they are superficially similar
imho, in some way, a society in which the women's opinion matters, will be such that men are constantly tip-toeing around the accusation of homosexuality(because it means less care for women), thus the bigger the reproach is
in taliban tier ancient pastoral societies where the wealth is, or at least was originally as the ethos formed, mobile and requiring powerful male bonds to be defended, I can see how this can easily develop a context of pederasty from close bonds between adult and young "uninitiated" youths

The aversion to homosexuality is entirely from Christianity. There's some logic to it, since once homosexuality becomes out of control and isn't institutionalized (like marriage or mentorship pederasty) then it becomes a breeding ground for terrible disease.

I know it's easy for you to think that, but it's literally so that men last longer in bed. I know it sounds crazy, but the idea is to build up or cultivate sexual energy during intercourse. Many, many groups sever the foreskin and consume the blood, like the Maori (they kill the kid if he sees them consume the blood, no joke). The trick is few of them have retained the knowledge for why they've done this. It was borrowed from a previous meeting, somewhere long ago in their past, with people "from the sea". It's a pervasive theme, rather esoteric.

The passage from Tacitus refers to "corpores infames", which at most can be interpreted as referring to sexual passivity, not pederasty, and there are several sources stating that ancient Celts engaged in pederasty:
>So that in such a state riches will necessarily be in general esteem, particularly if the men are governed by their wives, which has been the case with many a brave and warlike people except the Celts, and those other nations, if there are any such, who openly practise pederasty. And the first mythologists seem not improperly to have joined Ares and Aphrodite together; for all nations of this character are greatly addicted either to the love of women or of boys,
-Aristotle, Politics

>Although their wives are comely, they have very little to do with them, but rage with lust, in outlandish fashion, for the embraces of males. It is their practice to sleep upon the ground on the skins of wild beasts and to tumble with a catamite on each side. And the most astonishing thing of all is that they feel no concern for their proper dignity, but prostitute to others without a qualm the flower of their bodies; nor do they consider this a disgraceful thing to do, but rather when anyone of them is thus approached and refuses the favour offered him, this they consider an act of dishonour.

Genital mutilation of an infant permanently changes their endocrine system development. Early child abuse is essential to creating a mind capable of disassociation and thus being easily programmable.

To make cult fanatics the first step is early trauma, the earlier the more successful, it has to be before 6 years old. There is few more successful mechanisms of creating this than a circumcision.

Eunuchs were also an exercise in trauma based mind control and often became the bureacratic wing that ran empires because of their programmable nature.

That source clearly implies that Bagoas is Alexander's lover, which other sources confirm:
>There Nabarzanes, having received a safe conduct, met him [Alexander], bringing great gifts. Among these was Bagoas, a eunuch of remarkable beauty, and in the very flower of boyhood, who had been loved by Darius and was afterwards to be loved by Alexander; and it was especially because of the boy's entreaties that he was led to pardon Nabarzanes.

>It was in fact at this time that Alexander gave loose rein to his passions, and changed continence and self-control, eminent virtues in every exalted fortune, to haughtiness and wantonness. ...
>Three hundred and sixty-five concubines, the same number that Darius had had, filled his palace, attended by herds of eunuchs, also accustomed to prostitute themselves.

>Therefore he [Alexander] received the envoys of the Sakai courteously and gave them Euxenippos to accompany them; he was still very young and a favourite of the king because of his youthful beauty, but although in handsome appearance he was equal to Hephaestion, he was not his match in a charm which was indeed not manly.

>For when he had honoured all the friends of the king with gifts beyond their highest hopes, to Bagoas, a eunuch who had won the regard of Alexander through yielding his body, he paid no honour, and on being admonished by some that Bagoas was dear to Alexander, replied that he was honouring the friends of the king, not his harlots, and that it was not the custom of the Persians to mate with males who made females of themselves by prostitution.

Charon of Chalcis—so says Carystius in Historical Notes —had a beautiful boy who was devoted to him. Alexander remarked on his beauty during a drinking bout hosted by Craterus. Charon told his boy to give Alexander a kiss. “No!” said the king. “That would pain you more than it would please me.” Although he was a passionate man, Alexander was also self-controlled as regards decency and propriety: when he had captured Dareius’ daughters and wife (who was quite admirably beautiful), not only did he not have sex with them, he arranged that they should not even learn that they were captives, giving the order that they should continue to be attended just as if Dareius still ruled. That was why Dareius, when he learned of this, stretched out his hands to the Sun in prayer that either he or Alexander should be king.

Once again, Modern Catholicism is Rome. Rome never fell. It merely morphed into a "Spiritual" Regime. It also never quit cutting off boys dicks (altar boys) to keep them around as sexual pets, for example.

Plato and Socrates are the same guy, dummy. "Socrates" was an invention, like Shakespeare.
>Noble Lie
>from Phoenicians
Invented it, yes, the practice of a Nobile Class and an Underling Class. That could easily be true for all I know, but they did not invent the "Noble Lie". That was Plato's creation and it came from Republic.
This really isn't the thread for rants about Scythian-Phoenician Nobility, anon.

Greeks had a word for homosexuality, it meant "those that defile themselves and others". Or sodomite. The punishment for homosexuality in the ancient world, as well as adultery/sodomy I believe, was the insertion of a turnip into your asshole and hot coals shoveled onto your groin.

In the north celts just tried to kill you with knives and if you get away you get away

Plato explicitly called homosex "an unholy crime against nature" (okay I'm sort of paraphrasing).

stupid nigga twink death is at 16

>>508918730
Nah. I'm pretty sure Plato specifically said that if you're an asshole then you die and come back as a woman. If you're still an asshole, you die and come back as a bird. Then it's a beast. Then it's a plant.

>there is no concrete evidence to definitively prove that Alexander the Great had a homosexual relationship with Hephaestion
>Ancient sources do not explicitly state that Alexander and Hephaestion were in a romantic or sexual relationship

I don't think Trimalchio was supposed to represent a vituous man.

>Catholics aren't Christian, faggot.
Why do you want to believe pederasty was prevalent in White countries for ages, anon?

>>508919369
If you were capable of deploying even fractional agency or competence compared to the man, the whole world would turn on its head.
In a world with a serious dearth of virtue, a man like that would have most of us groveling at his feet. You are not permitted to utilize such psychological technology and are actively demoralized with "h-he's gay... so you shouldn't want to be like him" for exactly this reason.

>you desire the thing that you're speculating about to be true
And I think you're a stupid nigger who desperately defends the Vatican despite the global, momentous damage that Rome has caused and continues to cause.

Since Herodotus, accusing your enemies sexual immorality like gayness or cuckoldry has been standard practice by historians.

What we do know is that Tacitus' account of drowning emasculate men is corroborated by bog mummies.
We also know that in the earliest written northern european legal codes, homosexuality was punishable by execution or exile.

i've seen racism condemned frequently in mainstream media, but we aren't living in the most racist times.
you are making an assumption of normalcy based on the condemnation of a practice that was at best practiced in a small elite.
>Socrates in the Phaedrus admits that the majority of the relationships which he is describing involve sexual relations
he's criticizing sexual pederasty. of course he stipulates that he's criticizing sexual relationships.

>Using sources which are now lost to us
>source?
>I lost it 800 years ago
That doesn't make them reliable. We can't verify this as more than rumor that circulated centuries after Alexander died.

>>508919124
are you an authority on the Socratic problem?
Judaism is based on the noble lie, goy.
>>508919562
I'm here to crush your dreams he he he

I used to not understand this until I started smoking meth and fucking trannies. Now it makes perfect sense, bu my life no longer does

>>508919562
>you're speculating about
That's all you have is speculation that you're using to create suspicion. I would think for a White person that understands much of the western world was Catholic for a long time, it'd be more to your advantage to only admit to the facts about your people when a criticism of them occurs.

>>508919850
>everyone is catholic lol
Okay.

>>508919562
Alexander the great was not a sodomite. His dad philip was a great king who defended the persians he could get any puss he wanted. Men dont naturally want sodomy, if anything this OP indicates a false history.

The penis goes into the bagina.

>>508919932
Catholics just serve as a religious museum.
They even let Europe keep most of their gods in the form of saints.
That pinecone is Sumerian.
Circle of life.

>>508919932
Many people's ancestors were. My records don't go back that far, myself, but since we're talking about most of western Europe and the original criticism I responded to was a bout White people I'm not going to conjure up salacious rumors about ancient child sex trafficking through their charities

>>508920173
>My records don't go back that far
Other records do, big guy. Too bad you don't have permission to access this information. If you did, you'd understand what makes me so adamant.

>>508920233
Cool, you have no evidence but want to believe it exists. Have you considered writing a different historical fiction for yourself?

>>508920352

You're trying a bit too hard, don't you think?

>>508920465
you know that the noble lie is also what formed the basis of the church and all of european royalty?
that's why they inbred.
that's why Charles king of spain was so fucked up.
because the noble lie didn't work.

And we have all different metal mixtures of the pure gold of Abraham.
or is it
Israel?
or Solomon?
David?

The problem isn't those times, the problem is translators in modern times. Pederasty has never been common or socially acceptable.

There is a further problem of whether events in Roman or Greek antiquity happened at all. Anatoly Fomenko says no, based on his textual analysys methods developed with Gleb Nosovsky. Such works turn out to have been produced between the 15th to 19th Centuries and no written documents surivive before the 13th Century.

Nonetheless, the pederasty is a recent addition reflecting the tastes of modern translaters. For instanve, A.E. Houseman, also the author of "A Shropshire Lad".

>He mentions the myth of Ganymede and Zeus, where Zeus abducts Ganymede
Those stories refer to the motion of planets seen from Earth in a time of highly confused celestial orbits following the breakup of the Saturn-based wheel or 'round table' circular configitation.

People might interpret a planet seen up close as having male or female characteristics based on what it did during this period of restabilisation. But the planet itself is neither male or female.

Well said Anon. I was never drawn towards homosexual acts but taking turpentine and sugar (five drops on a teaspoon of white sugar) caused me to lose interest in sodomitical acts with women.

Parasites a drawn to the sugar and eat the turpentine. Thought aiding their spread reduced and finally removed. Diamond G brand of medical grade turpentine off Amazon.

If you wanted a good laugh you could try to find out when the Constitution of the Lacedaemonians was first discovered. Typically a 19th Century "scholar" and "confirmed batchelor" somehow "found it" in a pile of old scrolls while researching at a monastry library. Then the source material for his copy is "lost" or "destroyed by fire".

Many such cases.
