Athens or Sparta

Pointless divisive thread without pictures.

Utica and Carthage would bring a glorious mix of men.

[quote] The nazis were modelled after that society.

Apparently, so was gay culture.

Sparta was an insatiable bottom.

Sparta was the only one that has anything approaching sexual equality.

I am partial to Lesbos.

[quote]In cities such as Sparta and Thebes, there appeared to be a particularly strong emphasis on relationships between men and youths, and it was considered an important part of their education. On the night of their wedding, Spartan wives were expected to lie in a dark room and dress as a man - presumably to help their husbands make the transition from homosexual to heterosexual love.

Spartan women were granted some special status if they died in childbirth. Something akin to a warrior’s death, because they viewed childbirth to be service to the state in the way that fighting was.

One of NAZI Germany’s great failings was in not employing women in the work force while the men were fighting. Hitler’s belief was that their role was at home having and raising children. Out of wedlock pregnancy was not looked down on, by the state, for this reason.
