Essay on the regulation of homoeroticism in the West by the authorities.

Western authorities have repressed homoeroticism since the Late Roman Empire in order to encourage marriage and regulated birth rates. This is set within a culture where marriages between a man and a woman prevail, bilateral inheritance (both parents pass on their estate to their descendants), and states that expanded economically and territorially. The problem is that such patterns generate a surplus of single women; to reduce their number, rulers created mechanisms to force men outside the military and religious celibacy to marry. In contrast, the Greek city-states accepted homoeroticism because they suffered from a certain "demographic excess"; a similar situation occurs in current states, which have abandoned territorial expansion and the brute exploitation of resources in favor of technological development that requires a stable and qualified population rather than demographic increases.
