So nice of you

Very informative! I'd be very interested in a similar video for girls and women too!

[@AncientRomeLive]

Coming soon! We presented a live lecture on that very topic- but need to tweak the content a bit. Stay tuned!

Thanks for the chuckle. When you said that for the new military officer, "you don't know anything so they are going to put you in some decision making position", it was funny though true.

[@AncientRomeLive]

Haha, yes, like coming out of officer's camp and ready to lead the troops! Definitely due to education and status put into a privileged position where they would learn fast.

Graphic novel character: Rome Boy

Thanks for that. I read (somewhere) that rich Roman teenage boys were given a "Ganymede" to basically serve as sex slaves for them, the origin of the word Catamite. Is that accurate, and if so, do we know if it was common?
