A little bird (and a bit of research) told me

[Zysoclaplem]

I wonder if the new movie will portray that side of him.

 

[n0cmonkey]

He was bisexual. I heard it portrays that in the movie.

 

[Ryan]

IIRc, it does (I remember reading some article about the movie a while back).

 

[Bateluer]

Take into account that to the ancient Greeks, homosexual behavior meant nothing. Many men from that era engaged in flings with other men. Powerful men especially, even though they usually had a wife and a cadre of mistresses too.

I read somewhere that the reason the movie was delayed was because they were asked to edit some of the men-men sex scenes, apparently they were too graphic and frequent in the movie.

Movie was supposed to come out tomorrow originally, now it comes out towards the end of the month.

Zysoclaplem then it might surprise you that Julius Caesar was quite bi too. As Bateluer stated in that era it was not uncommon.

My info is that Stone was just generally behind (no pun intended) in production.

LOL. No pun intended you say? 😀

no, alexander the great was not "gay".

in the ancient world homosexuality wasn't seen the same as today. being the penetrator was deemed ok, being the penetratee was what was seen as "bad".

Yep, he would "tri" anything sexual. 😀

 

[GasX]

Let me put it this way. The Greeks made the Victorian era English schoolboys seem like raving heterosexuals...

So...if I fvck a guy in the ass, I'm not gay as long as I don't let him return the favor?

LOL. The sad thing is I think this mentality still exists today. If you're gay then you're gay no big deal but don't deny it.

in a way, yes. but even so, its was not "gay" as we known it today. it was more along the lines of being strong and dominant versus being seen as weak and pathetic, and ridiculed.

Suddenly seeming strong and dominant doesn't seem very appealing anymore. 😀

Are you still talking about homosexuality in those times?
