Why does Mark Antony say these words to the crowd in this passage from Julius Caesar?
During Caesar's funeral, Antony made accusations against the conspirators who were behind Caesar's murder and named and shamed them. He also read Caesar's will which left most of his property to the people. The people became enraged and rioted. Caesar had been very popular with the middle and lower classes. He was seen as the champion of the people.
First Answer: Possibly. There was much 'frivolous' behavior in the Roman empire. well if he had a wife then no.
My Own Answer: You know, a definiton of "gay" for roman times didn't work well. Intercourse with another man, if you were rich or noble, wasn't any shocker than being seen drunk for actors nowadays.
Although developing a real romantic/lasting feeling for someone of same sex would be treated as a veeeeery different matter. And there's no notes of such a thing for Caesar.
So, yes, he banged a lot with men, and sometimes, in public, but no, he wasn't to be called a real gay man, since his love, wives and even durable sexual engagements were all with women: Livia and Cleopatra being the famous names. He could be called, in nowaday words, a perv.
Or, in those days words from Senator Marcus Tullius Cicero, "Cesar, the man of every women, and the woman of every men in Rome".
He used to sleep with young boys, because this was a common thing at the time. He also slept with women as well.

In Julius Caesar, common people treated Julius like a god. Brutus knew people wanted Julius to be King, but Brutus feared that "power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely". Brutus thought power centered in one man, Caesar, would overturn the republic.
I (dolphinlover) and (Nanice) JUST learned this for an hour in class today! OK here is how he died:The senate was scared that Julius was going to become king and change Rome's government to a monarchy. They had seen Julius wearing a purple robe, which is the color of a king's. The senate DID NOT want him to become king. If that happened Caesar's relatives would have ruled Rome and taken power away from the senate. Julius even said publicly he DID NOT want to be the king. So the senate took action. Brutus, Caesar's friend was persuaded to help kill him. Julius was stabbed many times by over 60 senate members. Julius, as he was dying, is believed to have said "Et tu Brute?", which means "You too Brutus?". Julius could not believe that his friend had helped kill him. Caesar died on the Ides of March, March 15, 44 BC.
Simplified: Julius Caesar was murdered in a meeting of the senate, by the senators.

What did the Romans do for Entertainment?
A big event was the eating of humans by the lions. Millions of people would come to watch the killing of what could be a long lost cousin, or a family member they didn't know of.
The Colosseum is one of the places where the Romans held all of this, and it still survives in Rome (although not intact). There were at least 2,000,000 seats (there is some controversy on this; some people say around 5,000).
There were also gladiator fights, re-enactments of battles, public executions (either by lions or other means), and skirmished between various exotic animals and gladiators or just civilians.
Besides events in the arena, there were also other modes of entertainment. There was theatre, musical concerts and singing, chariot races (such as in the Circus Maximus), and feasting. Also, people could go down to the baths and clean up or chat, and the wealthy might visit their country manors to relax and be entertained.
