I've been reading all this stuff about Greece with just one eye, but my impression is that they were bisexual, which seems adaptive to me, or at least not maladaptive. I intuitively relate to heterosexuality and I can understand and appreciate bisexuality. It's homosexuality that I just can't find a way to comprehend no matter how I try. Perhaps most of those we call homosexual or who call themselves homosexual are simply bisexuals with a preference for someone of the same sex. I recall Martina Navratilova once saying that she could go to bed with a man or a woman but preferred to wake up with a woman. That seems reasonable to me and not particularly odd.
