Clearly - combat is all about sex. Or is it the other way around?

That would be for the daisy chain of command to determine.

Wow, it looks like once the offensive player gets the ball, the defender can't take a step, either.

Took Alexander (not quite yet the Great), the innovation of a pike phalanx, and Philip of Macedon to do the job.

What they had to say about it, at their beginning, translated by Dryden.

And the end of the Sacred Band

as historically interesting as it is, I don't really think that ancient Greek practices have much bearing on our own DADT shit.

Men, get over yourselves and stop being 'phobes. The world will not end if another guy admires your dick.

And anybody with half a brain can tell you it's really no fun to fuck somebody who doesn't want you fucking 'em. The magic goes right out of the activity.

I am not aware of ever having fucked anyone who didn't want me fucking them. I'll have to take your word for it.
