L’homosexualité

Today I learnt something quite interesting about homosexuality over here in America; and it is that the "Zapotecas" (An ancient culture from Oaxaca, Mexico, which I studied as a kid during primary school) used to accept homosexuality among men only if they practiced it before getting married; women were not allowed to practice it mainy because they needed to keep their virginity until they got married. Maybe this is quite random but I find it interesting because I could've never imagined that an ancient Mexican cuture could accept homsexuality.
I was able to discover this thanks to my French class because next Monday I need to present my oral exam and since we were asked to talk about a small society in the world me and one of my friends decided to talk about homosexuals; after telling out teacher that we were going to talk about that my mate started to fuss about it and tried to change his mind but I told him that he should not be ashamed of it because after all homosexuals are normal people just like anybody (Of course he doesn't know that I am homo but since I'm not ashamed of homosexuality I "fought" for my ideal)
