UNCOMFORTABLE WITH SEX PROMOTED AS A SIGN OF POWER, WEALTH AND CULTURE? Same-sex relations among Romans were lived and thought about in very different ways from our own. Not framed in terms of the gender of partners but in terms of power. Power was about masculinity – and Roman patriarchal sex cultures were assertions of both. An adult free man could have sex as the penetrating partner with anyone of a lower social status – including women or slaves and sex workers of both genders.
