Geni Pictur (“Mrs Lowry & Son, ” “Good Luck To You, Leo Gran”) has optned Emmett Monterey’s acclaimed memoir “Go the Way Your Blood Beats” – about growg up gay and disabled 1980s London – for TV adaptatn.

At his mastream school, teachers refe to schle his class on the ground floor, and at his llege for disabled stunts, he’s told he will be expelled if the mors are te, if he’s gay.

However, some rearchers now believe the pair were, fact, gay lovers. Some art featur men and women engaged more tradnal acts of sexual while many the past assumed the pair were brothers, Gabriel Zuchtriegel, the director of Pompeii archaeologil park, told The Guardianthere’s a far gayer explanatn.

”While there’s no five proof the pair of eed slav were gay lovers, ’s a safe bet to assume Priap was a top if me to n learn more about Pompeii and the Hoe of Vettii at the webse or on Instagram (@pompii_par_archeologi).

As a gay man and a rearcher on sexualy, I am all too faiar wh the ways morn gay men look to ancient Rome search of evince that there have always been people like . It is now clear among the rearch muny that such straightforward readgs of homosexualy classil history are flawed.

Dpe this, I unrstand how polilly important and strategic was for the early homosexual movement to vent s own myth of orig and to populate history wh figur that had been—they thought—jt like . The flip si of morn notns of homosexualy beg read to Roman history, is the way which the wispread prence of sex ancient Roman (cludg the graffi and visual culture prerved Pompeii) has been disavowed or—at least—purified by mastream morn culture. Pompeii's Hoe of the Vettii reopens: A remr that Roman sexualy was far more plex than simply gay or straight (2023, January 23).
