[QUOTE="ShadowSD:453297"]dreadedsilence said:[QUOTE]http://www.whosoever.org/bible/lev18.html pretty cool website. interprets this part of the OT and makes some interesting points[/QUOTE] This is the quote in it that really struck me: "Women were second class citizens in the Hebrew culture and were generally treated as property. If a man was penetrated in sexual intercourse he was being treated like a woman and so was degraded in the Hebrew mind. The offense was not that this was a homosexual act, the offense was that a MAN was treated like a WOMAN. If this line of thinking is correct it would serve to explain why there is no prohibition against female homosexual acts in the Old Testament. Women could not be degraded by such an act as they were already not held in high esteem." Compare this to the Ancient Greeks, who saw only men as worthy of giving sexual pleasure to each other, and saw women as non-sexual second class citizens who were no more than baby incubators. Isn't it amazing what two such seemingly opposite societies have in common when it comes to their concepts of inferiority regarding men and women? It just goes to show you, whether a society abhors gay behavior or condones it, elevating the male figure to a higher position and enforcing the concept of female inferiority creates an uncurrent of gayness. Why? Because humans are animals and driven by sex. Constructing a patriarchal society that covets masculine idols and embraces male superiority attempts to redirect that drive away from its natural target. That's why if I'm going to put anyone on a pedestal, it's going to be the female form. It's less gay than staring at Jesus' abs every day or assuming that deity implies dick. [/QUOTE]
