    Yeah but it was more of a condition than a social wedge issue. Hierarchal toxic masculinity shit, not so much class persecution, and didn’t in a lot of cases (I might be remembering a Greek thing, so easy to mix them up when roman culture is mostly a shitty port of Greek culture) topping/bottoming get based on age? Or did that not carry over?

      What makes you think modern homophobia is class persecution?

            As in I’m saying ancient Greeks discriminated saw the act as demeaning/lesser, but did not, I don’t think, see it as an identity, abd what role one performed was based on status/age/whatever.

            One was not a bottom (though perhaps was x’s bottom), but did bottoming.

              Iirc, at least the Romans wrote rhymes insulting people who were especially career bottoms, but yeah I don’t know what they did as they got older.

                Like I said; I’m working from half remembered history of Greece, whose culture Rome’s was a shitty port of, but I wouldn’t put it past the romans to add hierarchal shittiness.
