United in Battle Through the Crisis

Orestes and Pylades are renowned figures in Greek mythology and literature, often depicted as the epitome of deep friendship and loyalty. They appear in various ancient works, notably in the tragedies of Euripides, and their story is intricately linked to the complex and tragic narrative of the House of Atreus.

Orestes was the son of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra, central figures in the saga of the Trojan War and its aftermath. Pylades, the son of King Strophius of Phocis and nephew to Clytemnestra, was Orestes' cousin. Their friendship commenced in their youth when Orestes was sent to Strophius for protection following the murder of his father Agamemnon by Clytemnestra and her lover Aegisthus.

Their relationship is often portrayed as the ideal of ancient Greek friendship and loyalty. They support each other in times of difficulty and danger, prominently displayed in the story of Orestes' vengeance for his father's murder. Pylades accompanied Orestes on his return to Mycenae to kill his mother Clytemnestra and Aegisthus, an act seen as righteous vengeance but one that plunged Orestes into deep despair and madness.

In Euripides' tragedy "Orestes," Pylades' unwavering support and compassion for Orestes are highlighted, especially as Orestes is tormented by the Furies. Pylades speaks little in this play, but his constant presence by Orestes' side during his tribulations exhibits his profound connection and loyalty.

The relationship between Orestes and Pylades has been idealized in later literary and artistic works, often symbolizing true friendship and devotion. In some interpretations, their relationship is also seen as romantic or erotic, though this is not explicitly stated in ancient sources. Their story exemplifies how friendship and loyalty were highly valued in Greek mythology and culture, considered essential elements of human relationships.

同性カップル ( same-sex couples)

2023年12月05日 日本において同性カップルに関する法的権利は、現在、同性婚が認められていません。 日本国憲法の婚姻に関する規定（憲法24条）は、「婚姻は、両性の合意のみに基づいて成立する」と定めており、同性カップルによる婚姻の成立を想定していません[4]。 そのため、同性カップルに対する法的な配偶者としての権利や保護は限られており、異性カップルの法律婚と同じ権利や地位が認められていません[3]。 一方、世界各国では同性婚が認められており、2023年9月現在、35の国・地域で同性婚が可能になっています[2]。 日本では同性婚を認めないことが人権侵害や憲法違反であるとして、同性カップルが国を訴える訴訟が各地で提起されています[3]。 December 05, 2023 Currently, same-sex marriage is not recognized as a legal right for same-sex couples in Japan. The provisions regarding marriage in the Japanese Constitution (Article 24 of the Constitution) stipulates that ``marriage shall be established only based on the consent of both sexes,'' and does not envisage the establishment of marriage between same-sex couples.[4] As a result, same-sex couples have limited rights and protections as legal spouses, and are not granted the same rights and status as legally married opposite-sex couples.[3] On the other hand, same-sex marriage is recognized in many countries around the world, and as of September 2023, same-sex marriage is possible in 35 countries and regions [2]. In Japan, lawsuits have been filed by same-sex couples against the government all over the country, alleging that not recognizing same-sex marriage violates human rights and violates the constitution.[3] Citations: [1] https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/%E5%90%8C%E6%80%A7%E3%82%AB%E3%83%83%E3%83%97%E3%83%AB/top/ [2] https://www.marriageforall.jp/ja/marriage-equality/world/ [3] https://www.adire.jp/lega-life-lab/same-sex-marriage301/ [4] https://www.shugiin.go.jp/internet/itdb_shitsumon.nsf/html/shitsumon/a196257.htm [5] https://www.businessinsider.jp/post-279241

Aussie Equality Paradox: Women's Liberation, Immigration, and the Western Decline

@nytimes President Biden signed the Respect for Marriage Act into law on Tuesday, mandating federal recognition for same-sex marriages and capping his own personal evolution toward embracing gay rights over the course of a four-decade political career. In an elaborate signing ceremony on the South Lawn, complete with musical performances from Cyndi Lauper and Sam Smith, Biden told thousands of supporters and lawmakers that the new law represents a rare moment of bipartisanship when Democrats and Republicans came together. “My fellow Americans, the road to this moment has been long, but those who believe in equality and justice, you never gave up,” Biden told the crowd before signing the bill into law to loud cheers and applause. He added: “We got it done. We’re going to continue the work ahead. I promise you.” The landmark legislation, passed by a bipartisan coalition in Congress, officially erases the Defense of Marriage Act, which a quarter of a century ago formally defined marriage as between a man and a woman. The new law prohibits states from denying the validity of out-of-state marriages based on sex, race or ethnicity. Read the full story at the link in our bio.

In Verde Antique Marble Carved Love

In the ancient world, homoerotic representations were often seen as normal and even ideal. This is reflected in numerous artworks and sculptures that depict same-sex love and affection. A deep understanding and appreciation of these art forms offer insights into the cultural and social norms of antiquity.

One of the most notable examples of such depictions are the statues of "Eros and Thanatos" from Greek mythology. These statues depict the god of love (Eros) and the god of death (Thanatos) in a loving embrace, suggesting an acceptance and admiration for the relationship between these two deities.

Another famous artwork is the "Alexander Mosaic" from Pompeii, which shows Alexander the Great and his lover Hephaestion in an intimate pose. This depiction underscores the recognition and possibly even the veneration of the relationship between the powerful Macedonian king and his companion.

The statues of the Kouroi, archaic Greek sculptures of young men, are often interpreted as representations of the beauty and ideal of male youth. Some researchers also see them as homoerotic symbols, indicating a broader acceptance of same-sex relationships in Greek society.

In Pompeii, a room with frescoes was discovered, often referred to as the "Island of Love". These frescoes depict erotic scenes, including same-sex relationships, suggesting an open attitude towards various forms of love and desire in Roman culture.

The "Warrior of Capestrano", an ancient statue from the 6th century BC from Italy, depicts a warrior in a pose that some interpret as homoerotic. This depiction might indicate an acceptance of homoerotic themes in ancient Italian art.

These various examples from ancient art demonstrate that homoerotic depictions were widespread and accepted in antiquity. They offer valuable insights into the diversity and complexity of human relationships in the past. It is important to view these works in the context of their time and understand that interpretations of these artworks can be complex and are subject to debate among historians and art experts.

Hodges—which found that the 14th Amendment requires all states to is required to license same-sex marriages.The Respect for Marriage Act does not include a national requirement of Obergefell, but would mandate that individual states recognize same-sex and interracial marriages that were legally performed in another state.Some Republicans who voted for it in Congress cited the additional language to protect religious groups that still object to same-sex marriage.Critics such as Utah Sen. Mike Lee said it didn't go far enough, however.Biden hailed the passage of the Marriage Act last week, saying it would "give peace of mind to millions of LGBTQI+ and interracial couples that are now guaranteed the rights and protections they and their children deserve.""After the uncertainty created by the Supreme Court's Dobbs decision, Congress has restored the protections for millions of marriages and families," he said in a statement.
