This isn't true, but I don't have the energy to explain why. Someone else should set the record straight. For starters, it wasn't considered at all acceptable for an adult male to consent to receptive anal sex. Any adult male bottom would have to work as a prostitute, that was the only place for them in Roman society. It was considered acceptable for men to fuck young boys, most of whom were non-consenting slaves. That's more pedophilia than homosexuality.

I never like seeing things stated with certainty regarding homosexuality in the past; while it's certainly true that most men who wanted sex with other men resorted to prostitutes, slaves and entertainers (thus beginning the long tradition of equating entertainers with prostitution/sexually 'liberated'), I suspect there were a few men -- soldiers, for example -- who paired up in loving relationships.

And homosexuality wasn't accepted, but never mind it was a gay paradise, this is exactly why I hesitated responding. Fantasy is better than reality anyway, so fuck it.

Not true R16 and R20. You are fallen victim to the homophobia of the history profession (also its squeamishness with sexuality in general, apparently because mostly it is taught in schools to the young).
Roman society DID not have the taboo Greeks did about adult males having consensual sex relations, particularly with slaves. They did not want bottoming among free born nobility because they thought it was unbecoming of station, but use of other men particularly of lower classes for sexual gratification was certainly not a big deal.

As I mentioned above, I'm reading Norman Cantor's "Antiquity"; I don't have it with me (I'm at work), but he mentions that in the first few centuries, Rome was pretty free-wheeling when it came to sexuality -- straight, gay, bestiality, anything goes. According to him, the reason for the change in attitude was the fact the Christianity happened to rise just at the same time that certain venereal diseases, previously unknown, began to become widespread.

" I suspect there were a few men -- soldiers, for example -- who paired up in loving relationships."
Loving relationships were frowned upon, the rule was... arranged marriages with women. Even if you loved another man, you married a woman and had children somehow, and so did he. But it was considered contemptible for two adult men to have a relationship, it was actually more acceptable for them to fuck teenaged slaves, if they could afford them.

It was not considered contemptible R28. You must constantly be on guard against attributing a Victorian sensibility to antiquity. They didn't want weakness (and falling in love then and now was weakness) but they often celebrated passion too, as we do today. Human nature hasn't changed, and while society's understanding of sex and sexuality does change, the results in terms of actual social conduct are almost certainly far less variable than you might think.

Antinous wasn't an adult, R33, he was a teenager. At the time they lived it was acceptable for a teenagers to have relationships with adult men, but those relationships were expected to stop when the boy started growing a beard. Antinous died young, an apparent suicide, and historians wonder if he killed himself because his relationship with the emperor was no longer tenable (or maybe he was murdered).
There was a best-selling book about those two some years ago, I've got a copy around somewhere.

Of course attitudes towards homosexuality changed as the Roman Republic and Empire evolved. At first it was considered unseemly for an adult male of status to be penetrated, Julius Caesar was reportedly mocked by the senate for having an affair with another grown man (this was before he became emperor). But a few generations later anything went, at least for people with money. And then the damned Christians came along and spoiled everyone's fun.

In general, the pagan Romans had a blasé attitude toward homosexuality -- live and let live.
Many Romans saw homosexuality as a valid variety of sexual pleasure that anyone could indulge in -- especially the upper classes.
This is a culture that allowed primarily homosexual men to rise to the rank of emperor or anything else, from mighty generals like Hadrian to teenage trannies like Elagabulus. The Romans even deified Hadrian's gay loverboy Antinous after his tragic death, celebrating many funerary games and festivals in his honor and worshipping him for hundreds of years later as a love and vegetation god. Hadrian's rule was an era of prosperity, happiness and much peace that was very popular with the Roman people.
Prostitution was legal in Rome, including brothels with males. Bathhouses and other informally designated "cruising areas" were places where gay men could always find sex in public. Aristocrats had their pass-around whores and concubines -- Nero even married a high class transexual named Sporus.
Remember, the religion they shared with the Greeks was full of myths and legends of the gods they worshipped fucking male lovers, from Jupiter to Apollo to Hercules.
The religious cult of the Anatolian goddess Cybele required a transexual priesthood. It got so popular in Rome that the Romans had to pass a law forbidding proper Romans from chopping their dicks off, dressing like women and joining the cult!
But queer life in ancient Rome wasn't all rainbow flags. Bottoming was seen as effeminate, weak, submissive and degrading -- only tops got all the glory. As mentioned earlier, Roman men were expected to marry females and produce Roman offspring, but the men had the sexual freedom to indulge in sexual relations outside their marriages (only wives' infidelity or taking another citizen's wife was considered adultery, as in most ancient cultures).
The only instances I know of male couples getting married in ancient Rome involved one of the duo transgendering into a female identity first.
The Romans used derogatory slurs against men who preferred men and played the passive role. "Cinaedus," like the Greek "kinaidos," basically means "faggot." But it was only directed at bottoms.
Some historians argue that a Roman law called the "Lex Scantinia" banned Roman citizens from bottoming altogether. But the complete law does not survive in text; many think it was just a ban against the statutory rape of males AND females.
Also remember that gay identity did not exist in ancient Rome. Sexual orientation was not scientifically discovered or studied. You didn't have Christianity slandering, condemning and polarizing people's opinions about homosexuality. Sexual minorities were not pressured into factions. Like all the other ancients except the Jews, the Romans thought all people were potentially bisexual -- there was no "straight vs. gay."
A good book with lots of documents pertaining to homosexuality back then is Thomas Hubbard's HOMOSEXUALITY IN GREECE AND ROME.
RE: "Julius Caesar was every man's wife" and "Caligula forced all the senators' wives to prostitute themselves for a night."
Remember that political slander and rumormongering were just as popular as they are today. People write all sorts of lies about Barack Obama and Mitt Romney -- the Romans were prone to just as much bullshit . Not every claim made by even prominent writers should be automatically accepted as fact -- wait until lots of corroborating evidence backs it up.
Some Romans wrote that Elagabulus prostituted himself from the royal palace just for fun. But Elagabulus had many enemies.
RE: r16's claim that all bottoms had to be prostitutes: Bullshit. Not possible.
And the Greeks and Romans were not pedophiles -- they both had laws against screwing children. They were ephebophiles, or, like every other culture back then, they saw adulthood and the age of consent as happening at puberty. "If there's grass on the field, then play ball."
For now, let's examine homoerotic art from ancient Rome:

r17 is correct. Even if there was social stigma against bottoming or two men shacking up, Roman men were still free to engage in it and take all the flack. Case in point, Elagabulus again -- a teenage tranny emperor who took two wives and one husband!
SATYRICON is a famous, Roman novel about two, homosexual young men who go on a sexual odyssey across the Roman empire together -- in love with each other but quarreling over a sexual slave boy as well. Surprisingly, this book was a smash hit across Europe in the high middle ages when it was reprinted and distributed en masse!
RE: r27: Christianity did not overtake Roman law and morality until the fourth century, A.D. Rome as we know it was an autonomous city-state from about the 8th century B.C. So pagan Rome and its sexual mores lasted for about 1,000 years, not "a few centuries." Historians mostly think of Rome in its pagan heyday -- they see Christian Rome as a late adoption just before it fell and basically the start of Medieval times.
r32, the OP asked about Romans -- Alexander and Hephaistion were Greek and never ruled Italy. P.S. their alleged sexual relationship is dubious. Alexander's thing for Bagoas, however, is regarded as fact by most historians.
FALSE, r35. Antinous was 18 when he met Hadrian and 28 when he died. They carried on a homosexual relationship mostly in Antinous's 20s. But it was a coupling more akin to what Roman and Greek nobility approved of: the top was a powerful, elder and bearded nobleman whereas the bottom was a younger, clean-shaven pretty boy. Hadrian appeared more manly in distinct contrast to Antinous. Had Hadrian taken a peer or an elder, or bottomed, he would have raised eyebrows and be seen as a bitch.
On that note, let's have a bisexual, Roman butt-fuck fresco:

in ancient Rome, gay sex was OK but it was mainly between adult men and teen boys, adult men and slaves, or adult men and prostitutes/actors. I assume gay sex took place in the Roman army too. It was less common for 2 free adult men to have sex, though I'm sure it happened in a hush hush manner.
Of course, fucking Christianity ruined things.

"Also remember that gay identity did not exist in ancient Rome."
Well, there was barely such a thing as individual identity back then; a person's identity was as a member of a family, a clan, a tribe, a social class, etc. Those were the things that determined who you married or whether you married, what a person actually liked didn't figure into that. Some men had sexual freedom once they'd made a proper marriage, and incidentally can I ask if anyone's ever read about lesbians in the ancient world? Could two women get it on, did anyone care if they did? Even Suetonius, who had all the dirt, never mentioned anything about women than I recall.
Anyway, regarding the identity of an individual, it's been said that the first true "individual" of the ancient world was St. Augustine of Hippo. His memoirs were the first book ever written in the first person, as far as we know, and are the first entirely personal (known) work of letters.

Pederasty. This was a publicly accepted relationship between an adult male and an adolescent male.
Father's gave consent to have their son's courted by adult men. The young men are given a choice on who they wished to have relations with, unlike the young women.
Elagabalus was not the only emperor who had a husband. Even that psychopath Nero had two husbands.
He married a boy who he had castrated and dressed as a woman. And he married a slave who he simulated a bridal night with with. And he was the bride.

The statues (and columns!) were painted and the paint has since faded away, r10 . So, originally, that statue had pupils.

Just like Spring Break 400 BC on the Beach of Crete, OP. Fabulous! Plus 2 goblets of wine for the price of one on wet toga contest nights.
