The only good thing that arose out of paganism is that they're fun to play as in crusader kings

>>16363694 (OP)When you look at the pagan Saxons before Charlemagne forced them into Christianity, you have to throw out modern ideas about sexuality and gender identity entirely. Their culture didn't categorize people as 'gay' or 'straight,' but they did care deeply about social status and warrior masculinity. For a free Saxon man, taking the dominant role in a same-sex encounter was perfectly acceptable because it asserted power, but taking the passive role was considered the ultimate disgrace. They used the concept of ergi—which meant unmanliness or effeminacy—as a severe social insult that could lead to deadly duels. While we see glimpses of cross-dressing in their rituals and myths, like priests adopting female attire to perform specific types of magic, it was confined strictly to those spiritual spaces. Outside of rituals, if a man wore women's clothing or shirked his warrior duties, society viewed him with deep suspicion and shame. So while they didn't have strict church dogmas yet, their tribal honor system strictly enforced rigid, dominant gender roles.

We are conveniently ignoring Roman and Greek pagans, who literally built what was once the finest city in the world at the time as well as western civilization itself, Greek philosophy was even highly influential in Muslim civilization too and the Greeks affects the art of Buddhism permanently. The heights of the Occident ultimately was Christian though, but there was a distant fondness for the aesthetics and spirit of the pagans, but ultimately most pagan religions and folk traditions are just retarded.

>>16363776The Power Dynamic (Not the Gender) Mattered: As actual Germanic and Saxon laws developed, it became completely clear that they did not penalize same-sex intimacy itself. What they severely penalized was the loss of masculinity and submission. If a free warrior took the passive, receptive role in a sexual encounter, he was branded argr or ergi (unmanly/cowardly). It wasn't "being gay" that got a man ostracized or targeted—it was the perceived surrender of his status as a dominant male warrior.
The Context of "Cowardice": In Tacitus's Latin phrase, corpore infames sits right alongside ignavos (cowards) and imbelles (shirkers/those unfit for war). In the brutal tribal reality of early Saxony, failing to fulfill your role as a warrior or abandoning your masculine duties to the tribe was essentially a capital offense against the community.
Tacitus Had a Political Agenda: Tacitus wasn't writing an objective textbook; he was writing a political critique of Rome. He frequently romanticized the Germanic tribes as "pure, harsh, and hyper-moral" specifically to shame his Roman readers, whom he viewed as soft, decadent, and corrupt.
What the Bog Bodies Actually Show: While physical "bog bodies" have been found pinned down under hurdles in Northern Germany and Denmark, carbon-dating and modern forensic science reveal a massive variety of contexts. Many were ritual or religious human sacrifices to the gods, some were prisoners of war, and others were thieves or traitors. There is zero physical evidence linking these bog burials exclusively to a purge of same-sex attraction.
