There was a lot of olr-younger same-sex relatnships Athens (which you may have read about llege), and Sparta's ary, men fed homosexual bonds wh one another.
"At Sparta, for example, the separatn of the sex at an early age, together wh attus peculiar to other Greeks on the role of women, rulted overtly homosexual relatnships centerg on life the barracks, " an Amerin ary historian and scholar wrote his book The Wtern Way of War. Unfortunately, you won’t be seeg that movie anytime soon, bee when the Army of the Dead -wrer/director tried to wre a 300 sequel, he end up penng a gay love story featurg Alexanr the Great; which Warner Bros wants no part there was the entire bacle over Jtice League and the planned Snyrverse, Zack Snyr and Warner Bros.

Bh-era Ameri, and yet, apparently ’s still impossible to make a succsful big-budget war film that doubl as a gay romance. So was wh great excement that I disvered a movie ma jt for me -- 300, which is probably one of the gayt movi of the last . " That's where the "hard" Spartans will get ' you know jt how gay *300 *is.
I mean, how different do the Spartans really look om the homo beefke picture on the right there? That was an open homophobic sult a settg where gay sex wasn't out of the ordary.
By pictg the Persians as dark-skned aggrsors who wear tonn of jewelry and are clearly groomg their body hair much more elaborate ways then the "macho" Spartans, wear make up and actg an effemate way the film achiev a double-whammy: racism and homophobia one neat package. What mak this horrible realisatn - that is this film is havg all the negative them - almost funny is how homoerotic the film is at the same time. Totally gay, acrdg to this still-tglg viewer:I ught 300 last night and thought I'd pass on my thoughts.
10 REASONS WHY "300" IS GAY
Those who try to nstct the movie to a statement on the current war, or who say that is racist or (most glargly wrong) anti-gay are utterly missg the pot.

HOW GAY IS "300"?
Depicted on Ancient Greek pottery (Image: Wikimedia Commons)The Thebans believed gay warrrs fought better orr to imprs and protect their lovers. If a lover fell durg a battle, his partner would fight even harr to avenge his thoand years ago Ancient Greece, beg gay or lbian was not a crime. In fact, certa suatns, the Greeks even enuraged homosexual boys exchanged romantic favors for the knowledge provid by their olr tutors.
I don't know about you folks, but I have had up to here wh Hollywood g homosexualy as shorthand for evil.
Acrdg to the article:The director says that the film's (homo)sexual unrton were tend to make young straight mal the dience unfortable, bee "What's more sry to a 20-year-old boy than a giant god-kg who wants to have his way wh you? "Gee, where on earth do you thk 20 year old straight guys get the notn that homosexualy is somethg to be aaid of?
