    Fun fact:
    There was actually a woman that managed to get in the Olympics. She went because her husband died and her son needed a trainer for the Olympics. She got inside the stadium with clothes and they didn't recognise that she was a woman. When her son won, she ran to him to give him a hug for his win but while jumping over the fence that separated the trainers from the participants her clothes got ripped.The judges didn't punish her because she was the wife, daughter, mother and sister of champions, men that had won the Olympics several times, but they created a law that all trainers have to be naked like the participants.

      @spindash64 If you mean the Christmas Truce in WW1, then sort of.
      The French and Belgians, whose countries were being occipied, kept fighting.
      And even in the other areas like the British front, not every section of the line stopped fighting.
      The generals on both sides were all furious about it though, that the men weren't killing each other. Some sent snipers to shoot anyone who got out of the trenches, and some ordered artillery bombardment to end the fraternizing.
      But the Christmas Truce is a beautiful story, and some of the soldiers' letters about it are deeply moving.

      @phillipstroll7385 Рік тому +1043

      Yes actually it was. The idea was women can't miss what they don't know. The ideal male size was small. Large penis was seen as barbarian and uncultured. So women seeing that someone had a large penis, well, you can see how men would be extremely threatened by a woman's opinion of his organ. Males, even then, were more obsessed with penis than vagina.
      Btw, these laws only applied to the upper classes. Wealth was NOT how class was judged back then. Values and how one acted in public was the distinction between classes. Street people then much like now did pretty much what they wanted regardless of income. They'd scream in the streets, act like idiots lose from the asylum. Etc. A great many times the middle working classes had more money than nobility and upper classes but they were looked down upon because they did do things like cheat, with spousal permission. Drink, women in public without her man, etc. Yet, they didn't act like section 8 people. They wouldn't ever be caught dead on a basketball court. Then you had the upper noble class whom wouldn't even do much show emotion in public. Hence why the reaction to the murder of Ceasar is still talked about today. It wasn't about him being murdered. It was remembered because of how the members of the senate and noble class acted after his death. Crying in front of the public, screaming in shock at his death while grabbing at his bloody cloak, etc. This was seen as behavoir of the scum of the earth. Not those pure and close to the gods because of their control over emotion and self control.
      Hence why royalty still to this day appear stoic in public and why Diana was shunned.

And among more educated people swimming was considered to be just as important skill as writing (Plato mentions a saying about illiterate people “they spell not neither do they swim” - (Plato. Plato in Twelve Volumes, Vols. 10 & 11 translated by R.G. Bury. Cambridge, MA, Harvard University Press; London, William Heinemann Ltd. 1967 & 1968.), he literally says there that people should choose kind leaders even if they can't write or swim, lol).

      Greece is so hot and they competed outside with no air conditioning, cold water, ice, etc. Perhaps they worried that the athletes’ performance might decline if they had to worry about overheating and sweating more and getting dehydrated from clothing? Also, wrestling in clothing is very different because a person can grab it and they hadn’t invented spandex yet? And perhaps it was also a sort of action filled bodybuilding show for them where they appreciated physiques? They had to take inspiration for all those statues from somewhere and day labourers and soldiers wouldn’t be nearly as muscular as athletes. I don’t know lol I’m trying to think of reasons to give them some benefit of the doubt lol 😂

    Crucifixion was mostly bloodless. You were *tied* to a cross. the whole "nailed through hands" is not only more rare than people think, it's also not entirely correct due to transkation and definition misunderstandings. The ancient greek dedined hands as everything below the elbow. So actual nails were inserted between the lower arm bones not the palms to take the weight off of it to prolong the suffering. Crucifixion could last from hours to days.

      The Greeks only accepted homosexual men that penetrate. They did not accept lesbians or bottoms, especially lesbians. They did not accept sexual pederasty (pederasty used to just mean apprenticeship between an adult man and a male child until the inevitable happened and it became taboo,) despite what modern interpreters say. In Greece, they only accepted men if they penetrate and women if they recieve, as that is what they believed their nature was.

      2. Not throughout all the history of Greece. The condemnation "made up by homophobes" was just prevalent in different historical period than pederasty. History of ancient Greece is really long.

    #3 there was ONE exception the High priestess of a particular god(dess) who was required to be married for her position to be valid and one of her duties was attending the games (i THINK it was Hera wich makes sense as She is the the god of marriage knowing which men were Olympic champions would know who was a good or bad match for single women looking for a husband)
