What was the percentage of all greek philosophers who thought so, and how many of them were homos? The dude in symposium for example is a homosexual himself, trying to claim achilles

yeah right, the thing is it would be less gay if they just fucked. but it's clear they loved each other. achilles literally says that he wished everyone died, both Trojans and Greeks, except him and patroclus.
he also rips his hair off when he dies and screams so loud that the gods hear it.

Greek Homosexuality (1978; second edition 1989; third edition 2016) is a book about homosexuality in ancient Greece by the classical scholar Kenneth Dover, in which the author uses archaic and classical archaeological and literary sources to discuss ancient Greek sexual behavior and attitudes. He addresses the iconography of vase paintings, the speeches in the law courts, and the comedies of Aristophanes, as well as the content of other literary and philosophical source texts.

everyone who says they fucked is a nigger faggot projecting his own homosexuality
[31] Or again, Niceratus, Homer pictures us Achilles looking upon Patroclus not as the object of his passion but as a comrade, and in this spirit signally avenging his death. So we have songs telling also how Orestes, Pylades, Theseus, Peirithous, and many other illustrious demi-gods wrought glorious deeds of valour side by side, not because they shared a common bed but because of mutual admiration and respect.

>Pindar's comparison of the adolescent boxer Hagesidamus and his trainer Ilas to Patroclus and Achilles in Olympian 10.16–21 (476 BC) as well as the comparison of Hagesidamus to Zeus' lover Ganymede in Olympian 10.99–105 suggest that student and trainer had a romantic relationship, especially after Aeschylus' depiction of Achilles and Patroclus as lovers in his play Myrmidons.
>Further evidence of this debate is found in a speech by an Athenian politician, Aeschines, at his trial in 345 BC. Aeschines, in placing an emphasis on the importance of paiderasteia to the Greeks, argues that though Homer does not state it explicitly, educated people should be able to read between the lines: "Although (Homer) speaks in many places of Patroclus and Achilles, he hides their love and avoids giving a name to their friendship, thinking that the exceeding greatness of their affection is manifest to such of his hearers as are educated men."

Achilles and Patroclus doesn't even work well, since Achilles is the stronger and nobler, but Patroclus is older while Achilles is a beardless youth. Who's supposed to be the top in that situation?

Interestingly enough, even Plato wrote about that.
>In Plato's Symposium, written c. 385 BC, the speaker Phaedrus holds up Achilles and Patroclus as an example of divinely approved lovers. Phaedrus argues that Aeschylus erred in claiming Achilles was the erastes because Achilles was more beautiful and youthful than Patroclus (characteristics of the eromenos) as well as more noble and skilled in battle (characteristics of the erastes). Instead, Phaedrus suggests that Achilles is the eromenos whose reverence of his erastes, Patroclus, was so great that he would be willing to die to avenge him.

Where does Achillies being held by his heel and dipped in magical water to make him invulnerable come from, Homer? Because i'am reading Apollodorus right now in preparation for The Illiad and it doesn't appear anywhere, it' said that Thetis was putting him in fire by night to burn away the mortal part of him but when Peleus found out he stopped the practice and that's it.

Yeah it's totally normal for two straight dudes to fuck girls in front of each other. Obviously it was there foreplay they liked seeing each other fucking in realtime.

It's a later Roman invention. On the one hand, Zeus is Jupiter and Jupiter is Rome's head-God. On the other hand, the Romans are Trojans, and the Trojans are enemies of the Greeks, and Zeus backed Achilles. So they justified it with theology about Achilles getting dipped in the river which makes him "invulnerable", whereas in Homer it's just Zeus's will that nothing can hurt Achilles, so nothing can.
