Comments

Roman sexuality was about rough passions, obsessive love, and sadistic power plays. Lacking the natural grace and spirituality of the Greeks, they rarely touched on the spiritual side of sex. [...]The very nature that produced and thrived on this raw sexuality is the same nature that made Rome powerful.

I'm sorry, but did you read this crap before posting it? You usually post good stuff, but this is incredibly poor.

I have to confess to not having read this before I posted it, so your comments are truly deserved.
Good to see that my readers know the distinction between quality and rubbish. (I am not being sarcastic).

I was just being lazy. Not all of what I posted linked to rubbish though, I hope you agree.

The Roman marriage thing was Ok, I agree. A bit superficial, which unfortunately means there are inaccuracies, but still, pretty good ;-) Thanks!
