“...a man is expected to emerge from the shadow of women and children and take an active part in the ritualized dramas of community life.”
David D. Gilmore, Manhood in the Making: Cultural Concepts of Masculinity

Catullus
“Because you’ve read of my countless kisses,
you think less of me as a man?
I will sodomize you and skull-f**k you”
Catullus
