    mind you, if you like it rough, you might get angry which could help you.
    Man i feel kinda dumb asking this but what does IIRC mean?
    And for the record, what does AFAIK mean?

    I predict this topic will be closed by a mod soon because it's going way off topic...

    wow lads, i didnt realise id get flamed this much for asking a question. granted, i may have asked it naively but im only 16, im sorry if its not the usual kind of question/ delivery you're used to, i just honestly wanted to know. why youve all overreacted is beyond me though, as (as far as I can tell) i haven't insulted anyone and simply wanted to check over a fact with you.

    when i said that i explained to him the greeks were gay, its simply because it makes it easier for me to get the point across to him than going into detail about it all (while not saying my friend is stupid, hes the kinda guy who only has a fleeting interest in ancient history, ie, from games, and thats why i didnt take him into too much detail) i already knew that stuff myself, especially that the greeks considered actual sex between men repulsive, and later explained to him how things were when he brought it up when we were just talking. its just that i didnt feel like going into it at the time, not that i am ignorant and apply modern morals to ancient practices, so please, dont assume that that's what i do, maion, as that's the message your post seemed to be implying.

    if the mods feel this thread should be locked then i understand, but ill just say that all i wanted was a simple answer to a question, not what everyone has come out saying.
    Pull the trigger and hope it clicks

    No, we don't mind at all Recoil. It's just that this is getting off topic.

    Frankly, Ancient Greeks and Romans would probably be insulted that we divide lovers into "gay" and "straight." Their mindset was very different from ours.

    Frankly, I'm all for gay rights. I don't understand this crap that the government makes ("Defense of Marriage Act" - big misnomer, actually prevents federal recognition of gay marriage. wtf why do you care if someone is gay, people?)

    We just don't like it, what is wrong with not seeing gayness? would you like it if they could do anything they want (ie kissing in public, wich by the way is illegal in most countries including mine)?
    Anyway i know this post is getting off topic so i think it sould be closed as his cuestion has been answered.

    This is rather similar to the "sex before sports-question".

    In football (and I do mean the real football, not the kind where foot and ball only occasionaly touch) it is stereotype to say "no sex before a game". There are however some experiments where the result were the opposite. Some played better after sex.

    Anyway... even very rough sex burns only around 5 calories a minute, so their stamina won't suffer...
