    To focuss exclusively, and negatively, on what some may consider its more modern connotations is, shall we say, limited thinking.

    I don't understand why the colour purple should be considered "gay" apart from in the original sense.

    And Greek soldiers are so tough, they can dress like this:



    and no-one dares snigger.

    *Sniggers*

    RTW, 167 BC: Rome expels Greek philosophers after the Lex Fannia law is passed. This bans the effete and nasty Greek practice of 'philosophy' in favour of more manly, properly Roman pursuits that don't involve quite so much thinking.
