Man I guess the Roman and Greek sexual debauchery was an invention of 20 years ago LOL. I mean if you're going to make credible points at least know basic history. Therapy works for people with repressed memories. I guess that's that's hocus pocus too though. Despite your attempts at derailing, the original premise of this thread is insanely true. Childhood trauma imprints itself on you in the form of later manifestation of issues. Sorry you think the Earth was born 20 years ago.

You’re not far off. Jews and gays have grossly exagerated the amount of homo in the classical era for political reasons. Just because some wealthy urban elites engage in a lot of homo and polyamorous pile ons, does that mean everyone in the country does? There are still a ton of people that find it totally objectional.

While I think the late empire was full of debauchery similar to what we see now in the US, I think it was because of cultural degeneration due to large scale immigration. Early Rome and Classical Greece had cultures that emphasized restraint, and there are clearly figures like Socrates that abhored homosexuality.

While Rome was more laissez fair about men penetrating young men or boys who were usually prostitutes or slaves, it was totally forbidden for a roman citizen to penetrate another male citizen or son of a citizen, or to let anyone anally penetrate them. You couldn’t be a male roman citizen and take it up the ass. That was illegal. And having an affair with another mature male who was fully masculinized and well in to their 20s was considered ridiculuous. No one having what we would consider a public gay relationship would have any credibility in Roman politics, at least not in the republic or early empire. And there was no gay marriage.

Don’t get your history from hollywood or a pack of lgbt genderologists.

Repressed memory phenomenon is fake. I would say it is 99.999% fake. It turns out that people edit their memory all the time if it serves their purposes. Especially if someone is encouraging them. Some people are more likely to create false memories than others, because of certain personality traits that might make them more pliable or emotional in their thinking.

Ive know 2 people that I am totally convinced fabricated their early life “repressed” memories. I believe that they believe they were molested. I know at least one of these people was heavily coached. I believe there is an emotional pay off for creating this victimization event.

Within the religion of psychotherapy, one is always on a quest for formative experiences to explain why one has “dysfunction” or doesn’t have success or fulfillment. Mommy didn’t love me. Daddy loved me too much. Whatever. Psychotherapy teaches that if you can discover these causal events and come to terms with them, your current problems will melt away. You will have a good relationship and you will get a good job. But these beliefs are false.

People struggle with relationships and careers and money and drugs mostly because they have a set of genes that limit their success in certain areas.

But it feels better to think and say “ not of this is because Im defective or inadequate, its all because Daddy touched me.” Then the therapist and all your friends let you off the hook for being a failure and say that you are brave.

Im not saying no one ever gets traumatized from childhood sexual abuse. I just think that many people lie about it or exagerate it and people with repressed memories are almost always people who have convinced themselves or have been manipulated to believe that something happened which did not in fact happen.
