Is there any interesting research or studies regarding what ancient people or cultures pre monotheism did in regards to gender or sexuality?
I have old friends who take the Joe Rogan tribal view of like eating meat all the time and I just want to challenge them about the whole alpha male thing.
Tons. It's a popular topic of research. I can't reccomen anything off hand but there's a lot out there.
As for alpha paleo cavemen, go look up Otzi the ice man. His body was so well preserved that his stomach contents could be analyzed and he certainly wasn't eating piles of raw liver.
