Just don't ask me to decline "Go away Romans"

There's a lot going on in Roman society, it also spans many hundreds of years, so pointing at any one part of it isn't going to be very meaningful. They had pretty clear ideals of masculinity, the ideal Roman Man, which was where you would attack your opponent. This one's a Hellenophile, this one's wife sleeps around, this one reads without sounding out the words etc. And that's just what's going on during the time. Pagans and their ways is going to go on the be the church's whipping boy for, well I guess still now. A culture's moral character is the fixation of most societies at their zenith it seems.

If you want some evidence concerning sex in media today the Scientific American has an interesting article https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-sunny-side-of-smut/ no naughty pictures either
I found the part about the amount of rape in Japan China and Denmark plummeting as access to pornography increased interesting. It also reminds me of Louis Farrakhand's infamous claim, that the absence of rape in Muslim countries proved Islam's moral superiority. I hope everyone here understands what's really going on there (you have to have rights, for them to be abused). Which of course is what women and slaves didn't have in Rome. Though you never know what is legally true and what is practically true, every father in Rome was legal entitled to kill his son, though it never was invoked. Killing every slave of a citizen murdered by one, did happen a few times.
