well, it wasn't that Caesar was gay at all; the problem was apparently that he recieved the King of Bythinia, not the king of Bythinia recieving Caesar, the bad thing being that Caesar was supposed to dominate the passive, not be one, as he was a roman male "aristocrat". the pajoritive terms used by the romans (usually derived from greek), origionally referred to those who were passive parts in the acts. just look at the terms Pathicus, or Cinaedus. also, a good reading of Catullus should tell you plenty.
and gaius is pronunced guy-oos (oo is short u).
