A call to overturn the landmark Supreme Court decision legalizing same-sex marriage nationwide is on the agenda Friday for the justices' closed-door conference.
Many ancient cultures such as romans and greeks where very chill with gay people, hecj they had a lot of gay people, gay emperors and even a trans girl as emperor!
Then christianity came in and…
Edut: i was wrong with Elegabus(the trans emperor)
No offense but this is so oversimplified so as to be borderline lying. The other guy noted the whole Elegabulus thing but I will note that being a top was fine in Roman culture while being a bottom was a no no. It’s to do with dominance and Roman gender norms, may I suggest the Sacred Band of Thebes instead since they were pretty chill with their gayness.
To be fair, Elegabalus was distinctly Syrian in upbringing and religion, and his trans-ness was not accepted by the general Roman public at all. It was one of the main reasons his grandmother had him and his mother (her own daughter!) assassinated in order to crown his nephew Alexander the new emperor.
If only there were no such thing as religion, same sex marriage probably wouldn’t be as much of an issue or not even be an issue at all.
