Sexual Relationships 
Sexual Health I heard my brother praising this drama so i just finished watching the drama Spartacus and my first reaction to those times is this that it was very brutal, cruel and unjust society and times.
But also what i liked about those times is this that if you take out slavery then it was a time of boldness openness and no body would object to your sexuality (if you are in to same sex, straight or like it in groups) nobody objected the way everyone would dress and nobody bothered where one was getting intimate at.
What's your take on this? Would you like to be in that era if possible? Or its much better that its not possible to have those practices anymore and you are happy to be part of what we have nowadays?
Thanks for your opinions and time.
Just watched the season Spartacus and I want to ask that how open do you think were earlier generations in regards to sexuality and same sex etc?

7 29I just dont understand how people got so uptight about sex cause everybody loves to do it so why be afraid to say it
Yea you are right
That 98% of the time I am lol
hehe great then
I think I would have fitted in well as a Roman senator
😊😊😁
while its true ancient Greeks and Romans were a little more open about sex and stuff like that, but its a tv show. most of that never happened and they did it because sex sells
Well maybe
WOW! This is a HUGE Q!
So, I'll start with this. I think the key thing to realize and accept about those times, was that one could die in any number of ways, EVERY DAY! I'm NOT referring to war or battle or even crime!
I'm talking about insect, snake or animal bites or injuries. Or for example, accidentally eating poison, like the wrong mushrooms. Or worse, accidentally cutting yourself while gardening and contracting tetanus or a whole host of killer illnesses or diseases like the common cold!
Just regular life and daily living was BRUTAL. Death or permanent incapacity waited around every corner, doctors and medicine were often either primitive, unproven or toxic, if not deadly. There were no hospitals, no police, and ineffective justice often perverted by priests, religions or powerful men, like kings.
Death as a constant daily threat in its numerous forms has a way of sharpening one's mind.
Yup all that is true and really dangerous as well But even with all that there was still some positives about the time, isn't it
Absolutely! For very little air, noise or land pollution. More flora and fauna, including megafauna! Full four seasons unhindered by our interference!
Hmmm
People worked and played hard, because every moment was precious and not many people lived past 50.
It invigorates your spirit!
Life was simpler and more of a struggle to survive.
Yea thats right
I feel my viking blood rising!🤨
Hehe

With their open sexuality, diseases ran rampant.
Well many say there were not as many diseases as today
If you read about Caligula and Roman Orgies, they all had syphilis and gonorrhea.
Yes, that fits with mytake.
Hmmm
it is a wonderful film
made to look sleezy
thanks to these shite pictures
Thanks
dont post crap
Thanks for suggestion You could choose to ignore though😊😊
someone who posts crap deserves a comment
Well u could be a complete crap as a person to someone n i m sure many... but that doesn't mean they have to stop n bother about you n ur stuff
you have turned a classic film into a porn event you deserve crap
That is a whole season not the film though N no its not porn but the lifestyle n i admire that
I like it's full of erotic scenes which is more sexy than porn also Lucy Lawless is very sexy
Hehe yup it is
Very open... And also Spartacus is my all time favorite
Yup i loved it too
I loved open relationship concept in early ages, those guys really enjoyed so much sex and quality sex as well. The testosterone levels were so high and mahn they were very kinky and horny. Look at the dick sizes in Spartacus, they are strong, hard, massive and long to fuck for hours.
Oh yesssss... thatswhy i sooooooo wish those times could come back
Absolutely, weren't the men hot there and women so sexy in the web series?
Oh yess definitely
Would you have accepted the opportunity to be casted in that webseries? Lol? What all will you be trying!
Oh i would definitely say yes to tht... they cud do anything to me
It's one of my favourite series.. I love the strength of the army and way they fight every battle.. damn the women of their culture actually knew what's pleasure
N thats exactly why i wish i was in those times so free n no tabboos
Taboos like?
Like incest
That Era sounds hot lol
So hot and so free and interesting
I came for the boobs. :D But I disagree with the portrayals of these time period pieces. Sure, people had some freaky deaky sex sometimes, but it wasn't as constant and as open as they show on tv. Prostitutes would still get thrown in jail, and "orgy" type stuff was permissible for the elites only. A lot of people did settle their differences with a fight to the death, but depending where you were at, it was still a crime. Not always just done openly in the streets. They over show this type of stuff on tv now for the shock value and to keep people's attention. Not for the historical accuracy.
Well thanks for coming anyways lol And they say its a true story and the depict to near real situations and customs I even spoke to my brother coz he was praising it a lot and he also said that things get exaggerated on tv but it was close to reality though
