‘300’ GAY SPARTANS–AND HLER

The explanatn li ep the prejudic of ancient Greek historians and thkers, as do the spiratn for that one exceptn: The Caledonian Thebans, Sttish ggers who fe themselv as gay, bisexual, or ’s start by notg that Greek Theb (not to be nfed wh the Egyptian cy of the same name) had unually gay-iendly laws and social ctoms. The whole discsn, wh s equatn of male sexual love and wardice, adds a layer of homophobia to the standard Greek slurs agast Theban wlsns and poor rears n sometim spot and rrect for the bias, but outright omissns are harr to overe, bee we pend on Xenophon for so much of our rerd of Greek history.

The Theban “gay 300, ” as some have cheekily lled them, are ltle known today, spe of the fact that they too, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, were stroyed to a man as they fought a hopels stggle. Acrdg to ancient sourc and var historians, all of them were homosexual lovers, 150 exceptnally well-traed pairs of them.
