I've been reading through Mythos, Heroes, and Troy by Stephen Fry recently and I've been a little confused about the sexuality of Greeks around these times.
Every other male character throughout these myths seems to take one or more young male lover at one point or another. Does this reflect how the people were who wrote these stories? If so, how is it that homosexuality/bisexuality would be so much more prevalent then than it is now? I don't really get how that could happen.
