As the title states this little blog is all about a myth, the myth of homosexuality in ancient Hellas. Here we’ll be debunking common lies related to Hellenic history. Lies promoted by those that try to legitimize their sexual preference by connecting it to the greatness of the Hellenic civilization.
I should note that I of course acknowledge that homosexuality existed in ancient Hellas, just as it has existed, and will continue to exist, everywhere and at all times in human history. However, while it did exist, it was never legally sanctioned, thought to be a cultural norm nor engaged in without risk of serious punishment, which included exile and death.
Enjoy the ride…
