Azor Ahai 18,861 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Yay another step back for Greece! The Greek Nation Council of Radio and Television won't let this Greek Pride Tv Spot play on TV because it's inappropriate or whatever.

It's completely censored, we never learn that in school. Achilles one of the most famous greek warrios of the Trojan war had an affair with Patroklos and there are even pots that show them naked and cuddly, but we instead learned they were best friends Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix 17,395 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 This isn't surprising. The whole balkan is not fond of lgbt culture, and that will stay like that. 💎 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manul 7,377 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Just when you think that that country can't get any worse. And it's even messier when you consider their history, Rome and Ancient Greece practically invented gays. And especially the more disturbing sugar daddy x young boy encounters. But this is bs anyways, there are so many gay/bi guys in Greece, particularly married ones, it's disgusting. They are homophobic by day and passionate slave bottoms by night. it wasn't laaaahv Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kim Kardashian 2,708 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 They declined the TV Spot because they felt like the message of it wasn't clear enough. That was seriously their real response.
