Why is your interpretation the correct one? I never asserted that Achilles and Patroclus were definitively homosexual, but you are definitively asserting that they were not. You need time out and a nappy change.

How fucked in the brain do you have to be to refer to Aeschylus as "ancient Hollywood"

Anyway OP there is no explicit homosexuality in the Iliad, but here is an interesting essay that argues that Achilles and Patroclus are textually meant to be lovers. I don't know whether or not I ultimately agree with it, but it has some thought-provoking points (pic related)
