during the renaissance, when people began to bring back the classical traditions, how much did they emulate the classical traditions of homosexuality?
i think donatello's david is an example of the renaissance trying to revive the classical homosexuality. it was the first freestanding male nude made since antiquity. clearly, there is a lot of homoeroticism going on here. for example, look at how part of goliath's helmet is creeping up david's thigh. i think touching someones thigh that high up is a little inappropriate
They were homosexuals. You can see it in their art.
You're a homosexual shitskin.
Nah, I'm not a homosexual, I'm a dyke, get your slurs straight. (Well, I like men too, but I'm sure liking women at all qualifies me as a dyke by your standards.)
post feet
No thank you. You wouldn't wanna see them anyway, they're kinda dirty and there's usually a bunch of dead skin peeling off 'em.
post butthole
Last time I posted nudes on a blue board I got banned for three days, so no.

Don't have one currently.

post dirty panties
What is wrong with men?
post ankles
You know there are millions of other naked women for you to look at elsewhere on the Internet?
Post hairy armpit pls
Somehow I don't have any armpit hair. I don't shave it- it just doesn't grow in the first place.
Oh very well, here's a picture of me- though not one that will get me banned. Yes, that is an ahegao hoodie.
post penis
Girls don't generally have those.
I was talking to a specific not a general
Are you insinuating I have one? Lmao
present tense, schmast tense, just post it
Are you insinuating I have, or had, one?
>programming socks
...the whole reason programming socks are a meme is because knee high/thigh high socks are considered women's clothing normally.
post stool sample
I'm not even going to dignify that with a response.
, she responded
>she
I want to see a IQfy dyke
post high school grades
I went to an unorthodox high school that didn't really do 'grades'. But I still had to take my Regents, and I got near-perfect scores on most of them.
Just admit you like twinks.
>classical traditions of homosexuality
classical homos were supposed to be dutiful and masculine, being effeminate was shameful. You are projecting ameriglobohomosexual biases onto the past
Sure, but nonetheless they were gay.
Gay is an effeminate word to begin with.
homosexualry was deeply rooted in the Greco-Roman World. Almost as deep as my dick was in your effeminate ass last night.
da Vinci was twice denounced for sodomy,but there are many records of people (noblemen, even clergies, even Popes) engaging in homosexual activities, keeping male lovers and such and the general consensus seemed to be OK with it as long as you don't go over the top with it.
>the general consensus seemed to be OK with it as long as you don't go over the top with it.
Really? I thought the church would of hated it.
I know that in classical antiquity, the rules were usually “if you dont frick a man in the ass, it’s not gay” or “as long as you’re the one fricking and not getting fricked, it’s not gay”. Did they have similar rules in the Renaissance?
I would think the church hated a lot of things which nevertheless happened.
>Really? I thought the church would of hated it.
In theory yes but because of mandatory clerical celibacy the medieval clergy was filled with homosexuals and pedophiles, with thints getting more gay and more pedophilic the higher up in the heirarchy you went. Interestingly this is a trend that continues to this day.
the church did hate it. but they were not all powerful. they couldnt even completely get rid of it within their own ranks to this day.
consensus was actually that they deserved the death penalty anon
Accusing others of sodomy was an often used means on someone you were conspiring against. It's like telling the FBI your ex is a pedo with CP in his house.
We should return to the tradition of depicting nude beautiful men
Seems far fetched. There is little explicitly homosexual art besides Antinous, a heterosexual male under medieval Catholicism like Donatello would be oblivious to homosexuality. The decision to sculpt him supple and smooth was more to exemplify his youth and physical smallness relative to Goliath. This is what other heterosexuals would pick up on, how a boy defeated a giant. It was the equivalent of some zoomer squaring off against Roque Martinez and winning. That is the whole theme of the piece and explains the art style.
it was the first freestanding male nude since antiquity. there is a reason he was depicted nude. also, if you look at his sassy pose and the helmet touching his thighs, it is clear there are suggestive themes of homoeroticism
Freestanding male nudes aren't erotic in themselves you know...
>a heterosexual male under medieval Catholicism like Donatello would be oblivious to homosexuality.
That is just wrong. The criminal records of medieval Florence show that homosexual relations were rife among men, with younger men basically serving as bottoms for the older men before become tops in turn as they got older. It was a way of having sex without getting women pregnant, and before a young man was able to afford to marry and start a family
Leonardo himself was homosexual
Florence was the gay capital of the world during the renaissance. The word 'Florentine' became a synonym for homosexual. The church even funded borthels to fight the homosexualry.
*things
Homosexuality was usually seen as childish or irresponsible, instead of having kids you were just fricking and having fun. Marriage wasn't about spending the rest of your life with someone you love, it was about making more people for your community
