Democrats are obsessed with having the majority agree with them. This is because they understand that mob rule brings them power, so not having the majority approval regarding anything drives them insane.
For example, gay men account for under 10% of the population, so by the very definition of normal, they are not. In addition, religious teachings look down on that behavior, so it is neither normal or even accepted by the majority. The problem is, the Left has taken it upon themselves to normalize it and for it to be accepted. This is why they insist on pushing the LGTB community in the faces of society, but most importantly the next generation. For you see, for the Leftist, majority consensus = power. And since the majority believe something, it must be right because democracy is their gospel. So if democracy does not agree with their ideology, any part of it, then society must be changed, or as Obama would say transformed. But the real reason for promoting the LGTB lifestyle, is that if they can convince the majority of society to abandon their religion and/or morals regarding anything and everything in favor of the cult of the DNC, they will have taken over society. The DNC will then be their god.
But can they force society to embrace it? In ancient Sparta, they did just that., so it appears society can be reengineered to not only embrace it, but be forced to participate in it. Once they do, the powers that be will know they have complete control over the populace as they did in despotic war like Sparta.
Pederasty, or the sexual love of adolescent boys, was a strong part of Ancient Greek culture. It was age-defined and kept within strict social norms. The lover, or erastes, was a man in his twenties. He would court the youth that took his fancy, buying him presents and helping him to progress. He would also mentor the youth and provide a role model for him.
The beloved, or eromenos, was typically between twelve and seventeen years old. His sexual role in the relationship was always that of a passive receiver, and the relationship was expected to end once the boy became a man himself and looked for his own eromenos.
While there is no doubt that some of the relationships between Spartan men and their protégés in the army were sexual, they did not have to be. Two of the most well known sources of our knowledge about Sparta; Plutarch and Xenophon, stressed that the relationship should consist of “ideal friendship” and that to sexually consummate it would be “an abomination”. Nonetheless, any man who refused to take on a young boy as his protégé would be punished, as it was seen as a duty to raise another Spartan boy to be as good a fighter as yourself.
The homoerotic element cannot be entirely ignored. The Spartan King Agesilaus was mocked by his friends because he drew back from the offered kiss of a very beautiful boy, Megabates. They called him a coward for being afraid of a boy’s caresses, but Agesilaus eventually said he would rather remain above such things, and keep his liberty.

The state of Sparta made homosexual relationships mandatory
In the military totalitarian city state of Sparta, every aspect of life was fully proscribed by the state. All Spartan males underwent full military training from the age of seven years. At the age of twelve or thirteen, this included taking an erastes from among the older men. This older lover was seen as much as a mentor and role model for the Spartan boy as a lover, and the performance of the boy in battle was now the responsibility of his mentor. Thus it was an educational as much as a sexual role.While there is no doubt that some of the relationships between Spartan men and their protégés in the army were sexual, they did not have to be.
