Because Christianity ruined sanctity of embracing another man's body with one's own. Christianity is full of philistine plebs.

In another dialogue they comment out-of-hand about how Ionians like the boybutts and Dorians find it super gay. Despite Dorians bunking together for like 40 years and only getting to rape three Helots during special festivals.
I just wonder what an Athenian sailing expedition was like. For all the polite frottage-only and "If He's Nice and Smooth, I'll Grab The Lube, But If He's Got a Beard, You Shan't Go Near" rules that come down to us through history, I bet the reality of it was that they were just cornholing each other all fucking day.

Plato didn't believe in romantic love between same-sex couples. He invokes the "natural law" argument in his "Laws" (which is considered to be his last dialogue by scholars -- which is kind of supported by Aristotle saying it was written after the Republic) and basically says that heterosexual sex is only allowed, and condemned the Cretans and Dorians for spreading the myth / story of Ganymede being the gay-lover of Zeus. He believed that it's ok to be interested and protective of another member of the same-sex as like a family member, but it's wrong to involve sex in it and other romantic passions.
Socrates doesn't really advocate about homosex in the dialogue, but that beauty and love are their own unique things. Don't get other interlocutors mixed up with his.

Because Christianity ruined sanctity of tenderly penetrating some young boy's body with one's own. Christianity is full of philistine plebs.
