DA

Huh, interesting perspective there. I always figured homosexuality was condemned more for logistical purposes (small village, need to have babies to survive, have to make love to the opposite gender) - I hadn't considered that they were also addressing rape, which definitely is NOT the same thing.

NAYRT
There was also a belief that a man only had a certain amount of sperm to last his lifetime, so spilling it in any way that didn't allow even a chance of conception was wasteful, and like you said, babies and such.

This is why I personally theorize homosexuality was outlawed in OT times (assuming literal events, etc.) - because the Israelites really needed to expand their numbers and mortality rates were super high

In villages and stuff it probably was mostly what you say -- logistics and all. In cities, with lots of prostitution and the like, the rape thing was a problem too, though they may not have called it "rape", more like just...debauchery or whatever they used to term adultery and sexual hedonism. (The taboo again sexual hedonism also mainly came about for health and pregnancy reasons, then was jacked up even higher by the "stop having fun! Everything that makes you feel good is a SIN!" puritan camp.)

Social dialogue around sex was basically a morass of logic!fail, communication!fail, and perpetual selective amnesia, passed through a giant game of "telephone" so that principles came out so warped that no one knew exactly how they had arisen. Still is, in some ways.

"Debauchery" and free love are particularly hated by authorities because social mores are a convenient means of shaming and control.

What if people wanted to cooperate and have a six person cooperative household and bang each other and share things? How would the owners of the means of production possibly control the vassals if they're not sole breadwinners?

LOL I know it sounds crazy. I can't wait for Burning Man this year.

that's not crazy, it's actually an excellent point esp. as far as non-democratic societies go.
