The agoge? You're FOR institutionalised pederasty? Hahaha although the gynagoge sounds awesome.
I'm not much into Spartans, unless it's to annoy Xristina here. Got to love the Thebans though.
The Lyceum

Oh, Oh, don't. I like that idea, and my first decision as your leader is to ban The Lyceum !!!! And those of you who don't like Athens !!!
Ah, to clarify.
Spartan males went through the Agoge, Females the Gynagoge. Pederasty was part of the process, a younger male was meant to approach and request the bond from an older warrior as part of his training.
Other cultures, like the Samurai, also had this. Females also went through rigorous training in order to prep them for child birth.
Life in Sparta was not nearly as democratic as the film portrayed, there were certainly different classes (more like castes) with the Helots (captured Greek slaves) being the lowest.
The Krypteia were a group of Spartans whose job it was to put down any sign of Helot revolt, think like the Gestapo or something.
Grr this thread is going to stop me from revising. XD
