Less and less interested in this. But I will finish. Theres this argument to be made that ancient Greek sexual ethics were much different than medieval Christian ones, which we have inherited — but Foucault is so verbose and subtle that any distinction gets lost

This will be a slow-goer. Even though I’m close to halfway through, not counting the back matter of this edition. The point of this book is to illustrate the commonalities, and sharp differences, the ancient Greeks had with Christianity over sexual ethics
