romans viewed gays as deviant, especially if they were a bottom. however, they didn't throw rocks at them like jews did (which, by the way, breaking shabbat is also death penalty worthy in judaism).  meanwhile it's only with judaism and christianity that you get this grand social narrative of social slave liberation, with gays being one of those oppressed class groups. moses is the prototype of all this shit, with moses freeing the hebrew slaves from the evil egyptian oppressors to the promised land.  communism is just a secular exodus for other social freaks / slaves.
