On some real shyt it's probably because they didn't have all of the same type of bullshyt we get in our foods/diets now. Ever since I switched to a natural diet and got back to smoking weed 5 hours a day I'm horny as hell constantly too.

:dwillhuh:yeah I know. Thats why I said "christian faith tempered sexual deviancy". Thus pre christian faith they were sexually deviant.

Way before that Augustus tried to dictate morality.


Under Augustus, the Leges Juliae of 18–17 BC attempted to elevate both the morals and the numbers of the upper classes in Rome and to increase the population by encouraging marriage and having children (Lex Julia de maritandis ordinibus). They also established adultery as a private and public crime (Lex Julia de adulteriis).

Actually historical work done on Roman society shows that most common people were fairly conservative sexually, or at least had those values (heteronormativity, relative monogamy).

It's the Caesars and other government elites who went crazy with that shyt. And because they were elite that's the stuff that got written down.

When you extremely bored/poor or extremely rich/bored sex can fill that void.

See that's the thing. Sex isn't filling a void. Not having sex is the void.

p*ssy, mouth, and ass is really fukking satisfying and I've yet to meet a man who doesn't want his dikk wet.

It's who we are and women are the same way.

They had options them options though. I think sexual deviancy should always be looked at in terms of who has power and options.

It's easy to be sexually conservative when you're being manipulated or controlled (by "norms" or religion) but that true test is how folks act when they have power over women or men or boys, or whatever.

That is a tough one, due to the fact of archaeological evidence in places such as the city of Pompaii was saturated with all kinds of sexual paraphilia, which the common people definitely had access to both female and male prostitutes.

Fathers were permitted to kill daughters and their partners in adultery.[3] Husbands could kill the partners under certain circumstances and were required to divorce adulterous wives.
