THE GAY ROMAN EMPEROR GENE
Galba, 68-69 (GAY! GAY!
All of this is speculatn, really, as ncepts of bisexualy, heterosexualy, homosexualy and asexualy didn’t exist. But I believe I may have marked Vpasian as disputed bee of a mour regardg Joseph, or possibly bee of ary service and the prevalence of ary homosexualy durg that perd?
Galba is the clost thg to what we would today ll “Homosexual”, and the reason he is touted as an example of a gay emperor is a sort of mistranslatn by Suetoni. Roman homosexualy was based of the Greek; there was a societal prevalence towards homosexualy that mimicked pedastry, where olr men would have sexual relatns wh teenage boys.
