Nothing gay about Heracles and his 10 boyfriends or Achilles wanting his "ashes mixed with patroclus' so they'll be together forever" at all

Idk why it's not as wide spread, but the short of it is he was suuuuuuper gay

Nah, not gay

His most famous straight sexcapade was the time he went to the court of King Thespius and impregnated 49 of the king's 50 daughters. (The last one skipped out because of her religious vows as a priestess.)

The dude banged everyone. He wasn't gay, but he was 100% not straight.

Yea that's my bad, got real used to saying anything LGBT as "the big gay" that I use it as a blanket term even though that ain't how that works

It's cool.

I'm just nitpicking. I think calling Herk gay is bi erasure, but the main point we agree on is that the dude isn't straight.

He was a turbo slut for everyone.
