> 50AD

Curious choice of year, since that's about when emperor Nero married his former (male) slave.

From my amateur reading of history, your theory isn't very well supported; multiple ancient societies had no bans of same-sex couples, which only became widespread later (at least in the West).

Meant to say 500AD, much darker time to live in the kinds of places the ancestors of most people here come from.
