Homosexuality is recorded in Ancient Greece not because it happened more there, but because the Ancient Greeks were very liberal people (for their time especially) and they didn't try to hide it or to present it as a negative attribute of a person.

Thanks for the clarification Piratis… :D you may now proceed to the next stage and explain Greek pederasty! :lol:

Same thing GR. It happened always and it happens everywhere. There is nothing unnatural about it, just certain cultural and legal rules which apply in certain places and certain times, but don't apply in other places or different times.

For example just a century ago it was a common practice for girls in Cyprus to be married when they were 14-15 years old. In medieval times in Europe a girl was considered ready for marriage when she had her first period.

In the Paedo prophet Mohameds day it was little girls aged 9 years.
