Sure aincient babylon didn't have internet or electricity, indoor plumbing, cures for bacterial STDs, anime, or microwaves, but in lieu of all that they had a very interesting and attractive society I think alot of people in today's age would be impressed and envy. Aincient babylon was the one of the most beautiful cities in the world at the time of it's existence, they had marijuana and opium and farmed for their foods and the best of all it was highly noted for being the most aggressively sexual civilization that had ever existed, it would make modern countries noted for their sexual cultures (such as Brazil and Mexico, and even 1960s america with the hippies and today's western world) look like Puritanical nutjobs in comparison. To start off, you couldn't get sex anywhere easier than in aincient babylon and I'm not just refering to hookers (which they had temple prostitutes at the temple of Ishtar) but a literal young man can go up to a woman and ask for sex and if she was single she would fuck him and you can literally have sex anywhere in the city whether it was on the roof of your home, the town square, the bazaar, Infront of the kings gates, in the kings palace, the ziggurat, being an incel as a man in aincient Babylon was unheard of because the city believed that everyone and anyone was entitled to sex, even ugly looking guys were able to have sex and even have a girlfriend he married and raise kids, that is a luxury that is very rare I'm the modern west as we have become a very lookist culture. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if the women were competing to get a very young looking male, unlike in today's society where men have become simps and compete for a woman and leads to violence. Aincient Babylon sounds alot like a crazy harem anime. a guy could legally cheat on his wife with another woman (or man if he was bisexual) as long as he wasn't caught and didn't turn into a public scandal, while if the woman was caught cheating she would be thrown into a nearbye rice and drowned along with her lover she was with, the husband can forgive her if he wanted but that wasn't very likely the case. The only way a woman can cheat on her male lover is only if he leaves for a while and doesn't provide the woman with any food, which makes sense in my opinion.

I'd prefer to visit ancient Crete. Far more gender equality, a highly artistic and sophisticated society, and they DID have indoor plumbing! The men of Crete were quite fashion conscious, as were the women. And before you start going on about them appearing to be "sissies" for being fashion-conscious, get a load of the national sport- "Bull dancing"! You grabbed a bull by the horns and did a somersault over the bull's back to land in the arms of a waiting catcher. Both men and women participated in this sport. Unlike every other nation of the time, Crete had no army, and only a merchant fleet. An island nation located in the middle of Mediterranean Sea, they were a stopping place for European, near eastern, Egyptian and African traders. The food was good, lots of seafood, lamb from the mountains, and imported wines, dates and spices. But I have no "Disney-fied" fantasies about Crete- slavery was common, infanticide was acceptable, punishment for crimes was often barbaric. And here's a little reality check- how many hundred men do you think those Priestesses of Ishtar had intercourse with? What are the odds they would give you an incurable STD? With there being no sanitation department or public restrooms, farm animals being driven through the streets to the butchers', the streets were filthy at best. Consider that bathing was rare, body lice were a fact of life, and there was no deodorant. The "fragrance" of Babylon (or any ancient city) and its people would have you gasping! Hon, with the all self-pity, your obvious low self-esteem, obsession with sex, and anger, I think you should see a psychologist or psychiatrist about your problems. (I saw a psychiatrist during my high school years - there's nothing wrong with it, and sometimes it helps.) You might also consider getting a big bottle of Omega 3 capsules (fish oil). Medical studies have shown that it may be helpful in treating mood disorders after about 6 weeks of regular use. Taking Omega 3 can also improve your high. You need Omega 3 to properly hook up the CB1 receptors (the ones that get you high). Most people are deficient in Omega 3 and aren't getting their optimal high. Granny
