I'm studying my classics and I came across something Aristotle said:

"...after the manner of most warlike races, except the Celts and a few others who openly approve of homosexuality. For all warlike races are prone to the love of men and women."

I mean, the Greeks themselves approved of homosexuality, we all know that. The earliest evidence going back as far as 1147BC with Achilles and Patroklos.

I don't know about the rest of the world, but in the West, the Greeks were the first to develop a sophisticated writing method that could convey such complexities of society. And they were primitive enough at that stage to still perhaps be close to a natural human state that saw a need for homosexuality.

And I mean thats what its all about. Durkheim stepped back and saw that crime and suicide have been consistent through society and must serve a purpose to society. So therefore surely homosexuality served some purpose.

My personal view being that sex has always been about more than reproduction for humans, its a bout bonds, and perhaps homosexuality was seen as increasing a bond between two humans. I mean most men have a best friend and a girlfriend/wife.

Homosexuality can be a choice, OR how you're born. So yes.

It IS natural.  We all know deep down that we're all bi.  We all enjoy being around guys and girls, thats just how it is.  Anybody has the potential to fall in love with another person regardless of that person's gender.  Love is love.

You must be insecure if you have to reply to someone elses reply about how you're not queer. Grow up.

See people that get angry like this are probably bi themselves.  They feel the need to call people fags and queers to make themselves look straight.  I bet hes gay.

No, you're pretty much just a douche bag typical male, who is just trying to be a tough guy, afraid to admit that maybe even once or twice he's had the curiosity. Like I said to that other guy who posted, you're too insecure so you post things like this, to make yourself feel better. You're really not fooling anyone, so you can shut up now.
