What if the story of humanity was also the story of male love, desire, and brotherhood—articulated through every era, culture, and continent?
“World History of Male Homosexuality: 10,000 BCE to the 21st Century” invites readers on a sweeping journey across time, exploring how men have loved, bonded, and desired each other throughout the ages. From prehistoric double burials and spiritual rituals to the clandestine societies of Victorian England and the global Pride movements of today, this book uncovers the hidden and celebrated facets of male-male relationships in every corner of the world.
Frank descriptions of intimate moments are woven alongside cultural analysis, showing both the everyday realities and extraordinary stories— such as the legendary devotion of Gilgamesh and Enkidu, the erotic poetry of Persian courts, the sexual practices in Roman baths, and the displaced camaraderie of soldiers during the two world wars—this book shines a light on both the joy and peril of male-male intimacy. With vivid case studies, each chapter uncovers how desire, affection, and sexuality shaped societies, challenged norms, and left a legacy still felt today.
